I poked around a while and couldn't find anything, I see memes from y'all all the time and the progressive nature of Star Trek has got me. I wanna watch it.

Do what you want, except don't watch the very last episode of Enterprise. And make sure you end with "Lower Decks", so you can enjoy all the juicy easter eggs with your fresh Trek knowledge.

There is a much better novel adaptation/interpretation of the last episode of Enterprise named "The Good That Men Do". I can only recommend reading that instead of watching the episode.

What's the last episode of Enterprise? I might have seen it on TV decades ago, or maybe not. What's the problem with it?

[-] KazuyaDarklight@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

TLDR; It time jumps forward, proceeds to establish some very controversial and unnecessary changes among the crew, and frames it all as being part of a holodeck program Riker is running for guidance on making a decision. While it is NOT the actual implication of the episode, I feel the holodeck aspect falls a little "extra" flat by ending the series with "it was all a dream/simulation" vibes, IMHO anyway.

Yes-waiting to watch LD is the best move, even if it is one of the best shows (at least that's what I think)

You must resist the call of the siren
