Enterprise was so-so, at least for the first 3 seasons. Then Manny
Coto took over as showrunner and the fourth season was crackerjack.
So, if you feel like giving up stick around for the forth season. The
Mirror Universe two-parter was the first Star Trek episode in a
looooong time that I watched multiple times and will watch again in
the future. It's also why I'm very excited about the new original
series movie they're doing.
