Boldly going in circles…

The new Enterprise has been unveiled in TV Guide. The ship is part of "Enterprise" – a "prequel" series to the original Star Trek. While the ship is interesting, it is also a direct rip-off of another Star Trek design that is supposed to occur 200 years later. It’s this kind of lack of attention to detail that has hurt Star Trek in the past, and it’s not a very good sign for the future of Enterprise. Hopefully the scripts will be less derivative than the starship.
