In defense of Brannon
By Steve Krutzler

In defense of Brannon against all the vitriol that I just get tired of, you know, DEEP SPACE NINE was my favorite show and by all accounts a critical success creatively. But no one is going to lie and say it was a TNG-like ratings success. DS9 was down to like 6-7 million viewers by the end, and yet it was the best STAR TREK ever produced. And yet even with that quality, it couldn't get the ratings of TNG. So there is definitely some truth to the fact that the geneal audience is generally tired of STAR TREK. If it were all about quality, why didn't DS9 have TNG-like numbers?

I'm also going to defend ENT. It IS a quality show. Perhaps it's not the best STAR TREK show we've ever seen and I admit that the first two years were lackluster. But even so, and especially with the effort to go a new way in season three, ENT is far and above many shows on television. I think fans forget that because they get so caught up in this world where they hate Brannon no matter what he says.
