Expand or die?
By Hbasm

I think only the truly hard core fans can keep all that together. So I think it is time to brush all that stuff over and say ‘what were the roots of all this again? , what was this really about?' It was about the 5 year mission with these guys on this ship and let's start over and tell a new set of tales.

Isn't that exactly what ENT was about? Getting back to the roots of Star Trek?

The 2 first seasons of ENT was perhaps not as inspired, as some people would have liked. But they were pretty much rooted in Star Trek's philosophy. The third season was a direct opposite in many aspects (a war show). But even then, it was this "X year mission with these guys on this ship" and it didn't require any previous knowledge of Trek to understand it.

Remember the 45/95 rule of aquistition? It says "expand or die". Maybe its true for Star Trek? Maybe it needs to get OFF THIS SHIP for a while and focus on planetary life? It might help the writers to come up with something we haven't seen before.

Truth is, I haven't got a clue what's up with people anymore... Maybe there's just no need for Trek. Maybe it just needs to rest.
