That was classic Trek right there. LOL. Sam Beckett can leap back to NBC any day. Nah, I want to see him finally been revealed as future guy. I think the episode First Flight gave us a nice insight into the kind of shows we wouldve gotten if it stayed on Earth. Like I said, I plan to watch it. The stupidest thing CW did was follow up Enterprise with a Britney Spears/Kevin Federline reality tv show. And Im so glad that we got the four years because there was a moment when we were only going to have three and that would have been a real shame. However, I do feel each season is an improvement over the one that came before. ;D. But obviously I did ultimately come around. He made a cameo appearance as himself in the season 12 opening episode of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. And there are multiple time jumps that are pretty jarring to the viewer.

We had done a lot of good work and that we would hope that we would be appreciated as time marched on.
