Star Trek: Enterprise
With Paramount expected to announce the new Star Trek series any day now, it's time to cut through the crap and see just what this series is all about. The good folks over at Trek Today have landed a monster of a scoop by reviewing the script for the pilot episode of the new series. Here are a few tidbits.
Looking at the pilot script, character development and relationships seem to be at the forefront of Enterprise. One of the things I liked most about the script is the sense of humor that is reminiscent of TOS. Friends and adversaries spar with each other - remember the Spock-Bones relationship? The series certainly has a lot more character drama than what we've seen on Trek in recent years.
I am convinced that Enterprise could have a crack at being the best Star Trek series to date. It'll be like a second Renaissance for humanity - the chance to go out and really seek out strange new life and civilisations, something that the more recent series have lacked. These characters will be facing a real New Frontier. Also, the ship will be in the Solar System quite a bit due to speed limitations, so we'll get a first hand glimpse at how this technological revolution affects humanity, and our reactions on meeting all these new races.
Now that we've gotten you excited go read the whole thing here. Be forewarned that it contains numerous spoilers so don't read it if you like surprises.
