It's been so long that I'd have to watch it again, to be honest. To me, the only good season of Enterprise was Season 4 when Manny Coto took over and just made it a season-long tribute to TOS. Ironically, Coto is a Republican. That said, he also made another terrific short-lived sci-fi TV show called Odyssey 5 with Peter Weller. I highly recommend its one season despite the cliffhanger ending.
RoboCop huh? Sounds interesting, I'll have a look. Thanks for the suggestion.
No problem. It was part of Showtime's sci-fi block which also had a pretty good post-apocalyptic show called Jeremiah, which showed that Malcolm Jamal-Warner had range beyond sitcoms. Showtime axed all of their sci-fi shows and it died. Stargate SG-1 was the only one that got saved by moving over to the Sci-Fi Channel, I think because it was being co-funded by Canada.
I wish he'd continued to story in a book or something. Everyone I've recommended it to has liked it. Looks like all of the episodes are on YouTube. Here's the pilot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWGbfQOFN60
Jeremiah was a masterpiece, and had the unintentionally funniest theme song of any show ever ("it's hard to breathe when the whole world.... Faaaarts")
That one at least got a proper ending.
