I’m not sure if this is the right community or not, but I’m curious what y’all would think if they came out with a new show set in the Enterprise era. Ent is one of my favorite shows, and I always felt like we got screwed out of some really compelling TV when they ended they stopped making Trek after ENT ended. That era of humanity, the coalition of planets, the filling in of details on humanity’s early relationship with the Vulcans. Plus, it has denobulans, and we need more denobulans.

So, I guess I’m just curious if I’m in the minority or not. Would any of y’all be excited if they announced a show in that era?

      Came here to say this. I’d much prefer to see the Seven/Raffi/Jack Next-Next-Gen on the TitanEnterprise G than yet another prequel.

      I mean with that attitude, we should only have shows set in the 32nd century! After all, time has moved forward, right? ;)

      In all seriousness, that argument may have made sense when Enterprise came out, but now there’s four seasons of characters, setting, and story, which could be expanded on as a sequel. “Prequel” depends on your frame of reference.

        Ha! Fair point. Feels like with SNW and the propose Academy series we have have that era covered. I suppose there is scope for something between the TOS films and the start of TNG?

        I’d really love the proposed Legacy series with the Enterprise-G, or maybe something completely new in the 25th century.

        Take your point with Discovery but I reckon 800 years provides a big enough gain without having to worry about CANON.

    Yes, I need more ENT! The era had a unique semi-grounded scifi quality to it. But make it an animation so I don’t have to hear folks repeat “no more prequels!” and “where’s legacy!?” Ad nausium.

    I think a non-Starfleet show in that era might be interesting, maybe set on some freighter that is a generation or two after the ones Travis grew up on (so we do not spend months for each journey).

      Honestly, that sounds like my ideal show. I’ve always wanted a show that gave us something outside of Starfleet, and I’ve also always wanted a show that showed us a little more of earth (cannot wait for a sf academy). A freighter based show could us both. Frequent trips to earth to pick up supplies, space without the protection of the military’s flagship, or the protection of being an important military space station. Tight knit crew, likely family members and all the drama and story that comes with that. God, that would be an awesome show.
