Things that bug me about Star Trek

[Darth Tedious]

'Conspiracy' was the episode the bugs came from, and I would have definitely liked to see them return, if only so they didn't just become yet another Enemy of The WeekTM.
Personally, I felt that 'The Last Outpost' was a pretty ordinary episode in and of itself, not because of the Ferengi. I distinctly remember being excited about the introduction of a new species/threat (I was very young at the time). The Ferengi only became more of a joke as time went on, especially with the Ménage à Troi incident. Then again, anything involving L'Waxana tends to be a joke...
The one species I would have really liked to see more of was the Shelliac. They had so much potential as an enemy- a non-humanoid species with little or nothing known about them besides their hatred of humanoids. Could have made for a potent enemy.

What if instead of Best of Both Worlds being a two part thing, they had built it up over the entire season (or even half season) and then concluded the next season?

This idea would have been pure gold. Basically, if TNG had handled the Borg the way ENT handled the Xindi. As ordinary as Enterprise was, I found myself compeled to keep watching as more and more was revealed about the Xindi. I guess I get fascinated by new and different species.

At least according to Memory Alpha, the original intent with "Conspiracy" was to have the bugs take the role later filled by the Borg; budget issues led to them making the Borg cyborgs rather than insectile, and the connection between the two never materialized.

I'm aware of that. It not only gives me no consolation, but makes me unhappier. It means that not just one, but two potentials went unfulfilled.
