   ENTERPRISE is a black hole. I seriously hope Mr. Shatner avoids it. It   
   wouldn't help them or him to have "Kirk" pop in at this late stage.   
      
   There is too much wrong with this latest Trek incarnation. They messed   
   with Trek canon and continuity too much. Nothing in ENT meshes with what   
   supposedly later happens in the Trek universe.   
      
   I mean, the prequel idea was intriguing, but they completly screwed   
   everything up.   
      
   Example:  The sexy big-breasted lady Vulcan "science officer" in the   
   skin-tight catsuit is something you might see in a Trek PARODY, but not   
   in a real Trek show, gimmee a break. It's like they are parodying   
   themselves, but alas, it's not funny. Apparently that's what they think   
   keeps it from being a joke, is that it's not funny.   
      
   Well, they are wrong. The show IS a joke, it's just NOT FUNNY. In fact,   
   it's not entertaining in any way, not even as an object of mockery. The   
   fanfic writers and parodists are not inspired by ENT, just like the   
   show's writers apparently aren't.
