Simple Answer to dwindling ratings...
By Nitride

The answer is:

Too many shows have an almost identical theme to previous ENT episodes, previous TNG/VOY/DS9/TOS episodes.

For god's sake do something DIFFERENT! What happened to the "new" tech revealed? We got phasers in the pilot and some weak-assed force fields.

Season three opened with the sudden appearance of photon torpedoes after Malcolm marveled at such a thing on that stranded Klingon ship (apparently completely unaware of what they were, yet they were quickly developed?).

Here's an idea very briefly touched on in Season One:

Show EARTH! What are the people of Earth thinking of Enterprise's mission, what happens on Earth during the missions? Is there a media like in ST:Generations? Is the program getting its funding cut/expanded based on the realities of space exploration (hey they are shooting at us! we need PHASE CANNONS!)?

What about the families/relationships with people on Earth? All of the people on the ship up and left for many YEARS? How about Archer facing the parents of the people who died under his command.

The last thing this show needs is green slave girls or awestruck underlings marveling at a ship traveling faster than Warp 5 or force fields while getting kidnapped every other episode by hot female aliens or male aliens with varying amounts of bumps on their foreheads.
