At the risk of dogpiling on a well known thing …
I distinctly remember when I first heard the theme, watching Enterprise for the first time, and I seriously thought it was either a joke or a blatant rip off of Trek.
I really didn’t believe it was Star Trek by the same people who’d made 90s TNG era trek. It being a prequel was part of that (like how is Star Trek about looking backwards?!). But so obviously US hokey populism was just a major turn off … as a youngster then I “knew” that’s not what Trek was. And while I was somewhat wrong (US idealism is kinda what it’s about), I think I was right in the right way.
if they had focused on the romulan war, instead of teasing it. the series wouldve been well recieved. instead we have nutrek, which is worst than enterprise.
This episode is for you

Where? :D
I did actually make it, but no, I do not plan on uploading it anywhere.

the og one and not the singing one. and mirror darkly intro song,.
All I can think about is 911 when I hear it. The whole series stinks of American exceptionalism from the early 2000s.
To be fair, the first season itself premiered about 2 weeks after the attack. Given the time needed to write and produce, the entirety of season 3’s Xindi arc became the all too blatant allegory. There are still plenty of instances of Archer and co. committing their share of war crimes and atrocities “in the name of” and so forth.
Side note, the Tenacious D album debuted Sept. 25th that year and thus became the anthem that helped us all get through some shit.

Yeah that was pretty much the angle
It’s a time period I feel is better left forgotten.
I don’t disagree, but that’s impossible. Everything we’re seeing in the US government now is a direct result of 9/11 and the legislation passed only days after (that was clearly ready to go for the next emergency)
Bless your [faith of the] heart.
As do I, except the final season version.
4 and 3. Thankfully, there’s the alt intro for “In a Mirror Darkly”

what if the first contact was terran empire instead.
