An insult to the Enterprise cast!

The series left a lot to be desired. So I didn't watch it that much. But I was hoping for a decent ending so I tuned in.

But instead, they made it into a "lost scene" of the ST:TNG episode "Pegasus" and a crappy one at that. I like CDRs Riker and Troi, but hey, this was not their show! This episode revolved around them! Pathetic!

I tried watching the show (ST:Enterprise) several times and even got into it a little when those Space Marines joined the crew. But every time I got into it, the show got bland again.

The final episode was a chance to mend fences and make things right before warping into cancellation, to make the characters really shine before departing the airwaves.

But no, oh no. They (writers and producers) appeared to do the "desparate act" and include past Trek characters to try to attract the old fans. They might have attracted the old fans, but the final product they got was substandard!
