dont mistake me I really loved s3 of Enterprise, and so far im enjoying s4, but the character writing has taken such a hard hit

what I mean by that is that if you aren't Archer, T'Pol, or Trip, youre basically fucked. pretty much all the focus shifted to those three, with very few exceptions. Phlox occasionally gets some focus, and Malcolm might get a few crumbs, but Travis? Hoshi? they barely exist. theyre supposed to be main characters, and at this point it feels like theyre not even side characters. Shran has gotten more attention in s4 than Travis and Hoshi have gotten

im so close to the end of the series that I know it won't change, which is disappointing. I feel that other Treks have done a much better job keeping things feeling somewhat balanced, with bigger casts. im still enjoying myself with this series, and im hoping I continue to enjoy myself, but this is a big gripe I have with s3 and s4 specifically

#star trek: enterprise #like I feel like DS9 did a much better job balancing out focusing on different characters #while having a main cast of 8 compared to Enterprise's 7 #and including several side characters and recurring characters #Enterprise reminds me of TOS that way #where Kirk Spock and Bones are really the ones who get the focus #with Scotty occasionally getting some focus #while Sulu Chekov and Uhura- especially Uhura- dont get much #but even with TOS they find some more balance in the movies #so yeah its a bit frustrating #especially because I love Hoshi and want to see more of her than just quick scenes #no hate to Archer T'Pol or Trip I just wish the rest of the Main Cast got to be in the show more ldkgfdkhldf
