COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Enterprise submitted by Jen Chapin-Smith on July 19, 2013, 11:43am Die-hard "Star Trek" fans will enjoy this series, which portrays the very first Star Fleet mission in the very first starship Enterprise. It is set about 200 years before the original series in which Capt. James Kirk leads another Enterprise on a mission of exploration. The new show contains numerous foreshadowing references to "Voyager," "Next Generation" and "Deep Space Nine," as well as the various "Star Trek" movies.

Overall, the show is a guilty pleasure, but not nearly as good as the other "Star Trek" series.

SPOILER ALERT: This season also introduces the crew to the Borg, whom humans have never before encountered (remember, this series is set before "Next Generation"). As usual, the Borg are incredibly creepy, and this episode may give some people nightmares.

Sadly, "Enterprise" reverts back to much of the sexism and racism of the original series. All but three of the actors playing main characters are European or Euro-American men. The only two actors of color play characters of the lowest rank on the ship. Women often lustfully throw themselves at men or act completely irrational. There are also no LGBT characters (although one would expect that by the 22nd century homophobia and heterosexism would be gone), except for a character who is gender-neutral and appears in only one episode.
