Bad writers, uninspired acting (all too often) from the principals, and utter contempt for continuity (other than recycling plots from past shows).

And of course, the blatant exploitation angle with pointless decon chamber scenes, T'Pol's outfits and Mayweather taking off his shirt at every opportunity.*






* Any of which would be tolerable if there was more to the show than just trying to appeal to horny fans.

I was going to say, "don't forget Trip" (referring to people in their underwear), but thinking about it I realized that other than Phlox all of the main characters have been low on clothing rather often.

My problem with this aspect is that they try to make a big deal about the "sexuality" on Enterprise when most of the time it's still PG or an extremely weak TV-14. If they aren't going to keep the writing interesting then they shouldn't also bore the crap out of me with the lame assed teasing.

Yeah, I mean its not like we can't just watch pr0n if we want to...

It is just teasing, and meant to distract from a lackluster episode and wooden acting. ; p

You're right, the amount of taking off of clothes has really been frequent throughout the series...


Maybe this horniness is why they invented the holodeck (and Raisa)? Sheesh
