OK, here’s my angst
Ol’ Tricky Ricky (like that!!!) seems to want to reinvent Trek in his own image, but I guess you gotta to say fair play, I mean how could you make a programme that is meant to be based before TOS and have it not look like a 60’s programme.
The Enterprise looks like a vessel seen in future Trek (I thought I saw one in Best of Both Worlds), it’s certainly unlike the Enterprise of TOS, and it’s difficult to imagine how it could evolve into what is now a sorry looking starship (the original).
Personally, I think that at some point TOS will have to be ignored to make Enterprise believable.
You really have to put it out of your mind, but I guess Berman can’t get around the look problem, if it looked 60’s then no one would watch, but then if it doesn’t, then it makes it looked advanced.
I think I prefer Berman’s vision, as the 60’s were corny, it’s kinda like TOS was a representation of that timeline, but Enterprise is the historical truth!!!!
