The final arc sounds promising.

Certainly looks interesting - although I thought the Vulcan arc would be interesting too :(

And why is it that they promote Divergence as 'the one where they explain the forehead' (like anoyine really cares), ratehr than the one which sets up Section 31? certainly sounds a lot more interesting...

At least if anything they're showing a bit of inventiveness with this mirror universe episode (read as 'give everyone a reason to ham it up big time and go all slutty' :)) - the news of the 'alternate credits' could be a good thing for the series, then again it could just get confused viewers expecting Enterprise to have turned off too early :)

Although since no bugger's watching it I don't really think that matters :)

All being well it won't just be the opening credits that are different, let's see what they can do with that damned theme tune :thumbsup:

Nothing wrong with the Vulcan arc!!!

And yes, some of us are still watching it and will continue to do so.

Apparently there are increasing promising signs that ENTERPRISE will infact get a 5th season but I will believe it when it happens!!!

Oh and ANGEL, I happen to like the theme tune, I sing along to it every time an episode starts and as I said in another thread I bought the soundtract album last week!!!

Altogether now "Its been a long time...."

It takes all sorts Ken :p

Seriously though, I can see what they were trying to do; get rid of the orchestral score and bring it closer to our timeframe. Unfortunately they weren't quite contemporary enough in their selection. As it stands, the theme tune sits awkwardly.

I think I'd have preferred another orchestral score. Either that or they should have gone with The Calling's rendition which they used for the initial trailers prior to the series debuting.

No - it does a very good job of curing insomnia :) As I said before, it could have been a lot better had they not had the misguided belief that "arc = padding out stories so they go on longer". Had there been an underlying theme about problems with the Vulcans which built up to the whole katra story, then it would have felt a lot more satisfying than 'right - that's Soong wrapped up - let's throw our heroes into another story right away'. It worked for TNG which thrived on standalone episodes, but when they claim to be w**king towards arcs what they are in fact doing is w**king toward 3-part stories.

It would be commercial suicide for Enterprise to try something on the scale of B5 (although it would have been preferred - depending of course if it could be pulled off :)), but they should have gone back to what they did in Season 3 which was almost there - it just needed a bit more pre-planning to avoid the likes of the Sphere Builders appearing just as they were relevant to the plot, or an Enterprise from the past which was flitting around the Expanse near Azati Prime for 100 years and no-one so much as mentioned it until E-Squared.

After all, on DS9 the Dominion were hinted at during S2 through occasional comments from other aliens as an overseeing force in the Gamma Quadrant, so when they were introduced at the end of the season, it felt much more natural rather than 'bang - here are the new bad guys'.

This is the kind of conversation that can only end in a gunshot :lol:

:lol: :lol: :lol:

not nice!!! :unsure:

It's a quote Ken ;) I don't think Phillip has any real intention to shoot you :lol:

Of course, it is an incentive to hurry up and catch up with B5 :)

Well for a mirror universe story, I can picture maybe some half wit American Rock band doing a new version of the theme. With a crescendo that consists of Russell Watson being throttled :D

Gets my vote :thumbsup:

The arc thing sounds interesting, although as yet I haven't seen any of S4 so I couldn't say if it sounded better than the rest of the series.

Must try and get hold of a few eps and then find time to watch them :lol:
