Enterprise era new trek show? (startrek.website)

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?

There was I think some mention in this com of a TOS reboot with SNW's spock, kirk and uhura (I think it was just the kirk actor saying he'd be down, what ever that is worth). I don't think that makes any sense at all ... TOS etc is well trodden ground.

BUT ... if any trek were to get a reboot, Enterprise would probably be the prime candidate IMO. It'd be bitter for the Enterprise crew/cast, I'm sure ... but I think many would acknowlege that that show was a missed opportunity that was also not allowed to hit its stride (everyone knows it takes 3 seasons right?). From a more "modern" perspective, leaning into the politics, maybe some of the darker corners or at least the tenuous/fragile aspects of a burgeoning civilisation/federation, as well as the difficulties of space travel when the warp drive is brand new and it's all still dangerous ... could be quite interesting and pertinent TV.
