Weird, right?

  I never quite noticed that before, but honestly, that’s probably part of the reason I like the first season more than the others. It really felt like they were out there exploring instead of just the pew pew action combat it became.

    It turned into 9/11 therapy for the writers.

  It’s because of the uniform design. It’s blue, not red

    Seems like a design flaw that Starfleet should have addressed.

      They did. By introducing red uniforms.

    Shambles? Looks more like an amorphic humanoid mock-up honestly

  It kind of works though because it’s a prequel to things like TOS and TNG. We’ve already seen those shows, so we know they’re basically wondering around what will become their own backyard in a couple of hundred years. There really isn’t that much that’s dangerous there. Mostly it’s about interpersonal situations and meeting new species for the first time.

  It would be fine if Archer wasn’t such a dumbass.

    Yeah, but I think the stakes should have been higher. They’re exploring unknown space and meeting hostile aliens. Even if some of those aliens became friends later, they could have started as hostile and worked towards being allies, like they did with the Andorians later in the series. The idea that they could be in totally unknown space and exploring strange new worlds and no one ever dies? Seems a little hard to buy to me.

      I mean their backyard is also pretty much the vulcans backyard. For the most part they’re exploring places the vulcans have been, or have been near. Iirc only a few places they go were totally unknown in the vulcan database.
