@theapple3160 "everyone hated it at the time but liked it after" sounds like star wars prequels, both being prequels and both having inferior sequels/reboots afterwards
I love the enterprise intro, it makes it feel like the future is near, something that's almost within our grasp. The Voyager intro is great too, it really gets me in the feels lol, feels kinda nostalgic.
I love that it's grown on people over the years, given how much hate it used to get. I rather enjoy the pairing of the song and visuals myself. That said I still consider this the true theme of Enterprise th-cam.com/video/5JNgC8tc-x8/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=SGTBizarro
TOS: *cool space music* TAS: *cool space music* TNG: *triumphant space music* DS9: *cool space music* Voyager: *cool space music* Enterprise: *BUTT ROCK!!!*
I started watching DS9 (again). I think I used to skip the intro in the past. This time around, I let it play through. I think it’s my favorite, too. Both versions. Yeah I get chills. It’s those majestic instrumentals!
I really appreciate what they were trying to do with Enterprise, they actually wanted to use 'Beautiful Day' by U2 but couldn't get the licence. It makes a lot more sense when you look at it in that light.
That’s a good way to start! Don’t let anybody bother you about the ending. I’m surprised at how many people think that it was all a simulation. It was Riker and Troi looking at our equivalent of historical records. We read history books, listen to recordings, and watch video. They watched the holo records.
I've seen every episode of every season of every version of Star Trek from T.O.S. to the animated series to TNG to DS9 to Voyager to Enterprise and inspite of what a lot of people say about it Star Trek Enterprise was a good series as it showed the early days of Starfleet before the formation of the United Federation of Planets and the voyages of the very first Earth starship pre-Federation to be called Enterprise and it's encounters with the races we are all familiar with from the Klingons to the Vulcans to the Romulans heck the NX-01 Enterprise was the first Starfleet ship to encounter and engage and fight what would become the most deadliest enemy in the history of the Federation and that threat was the borg even though the Borg ship they destroyed was an assimilated transport ship and if they hadn't stopped them the Earth wouldn't have a future as the planet would have been assimilated by the Borg and suffice to say what anyone says the crew of the NX-01 are okay in my book and you can quote me on it.
A very thoughtful take on why Enterprise was such a great show. Also, I think, the most underrated of the Trek shows. Possibly the most underrated show of all time.
I just finished bingeing the whole series - I skipped it the first time around, and wow! I'm sorry I did! In many ways the best of the lot! Highest production values, soft story arc (you want that, it improves the script writing), some great characters (not all), respect for the science, expansion on concepts from TOS, tie-ins from the other series, most natural dialog of all the series...and I loved Dr. Phlox, the strongest character of all. I had bypassed the series after the first few episodes, because I didn't like how they treated the Vulcans, turning them into duplicitous liars, but upon second viewing, I moderated my own inner conception of the Vulcan race, and it all made sense - they aren't perfect, they just THINK they are! Sorry, you pointy eared hobgoblins, but arrogance is an emotion! Anyway, glad I watched it. Best series of all. Who's with me?
ST:ENT had a lot of good in it. I just think it was [photon?] torpedoed in overall direction by the showrunners. And I didn't mind the ending; I thought it was clever and Frakes did a better Riker *then* than in TNG, IMO.
I agree in theory but in practice ENT was so obsessed with that stupid temporal Cold war it really bogged down the whole show. I would've *loved* a show about the birth of the federation, but I'm not sure that's Enterprise.
@@TheBabaloga the temporal cold war makes perfect sense for the series but I don't think it was executed as well as it could have been. Think about it, after all the time traveling we've seen it's obvious that in the future of trek they would develop technology to exploit it and the enemies of the federation would absolutely use it to prevent the federation from being founded
After having heard the Next Generation's theme song so frequently, it's a bit of a surprise when the old 1960s theme comes on after the space ambience gears you up to hear it. To be fair, I primarily grew up when TNG was the big Star Trek show on TV.
TNG got the grand voice, Voyager the grand score and visuals and the first Enterprise song and visuals capture the longing for adventure, traveling, new shores, so to speak, and get's you in the right mood. Sadly they coincidently have the worst intro with the second version, fitting since the series, suddenly also named Star Trek, wasn't that good anymore in it's third season as it was before. But Voyager and Enterprise deliver that what I like about the series the most, exploration and something new around every every asteroid, the others were mostly in their known space and dealed with errand runs and known factions, still having good stories anc characters though.
Bellísima por su trama en distintos dramas. Una serie que fue mi favorita aún estando en la Universidad, algo con mucho futuro, con astronautas muy altos, y misteriosos en la aventura de un universo lleno de otros seres con otras formas de vivir. Y una nave difícil de olvidar con su equipo preparado para la paz o la guerra. Quién puede olvidar al médico que llega en el Siglo XX resuelve con una gragea una enfermedad en una mujer de dicho siglo y deja perplejo a sus colegas, o cuando salvan a una ballena. Bien merecido tiene hoy en día el actor que dirige la nave, de volar por primera vez hacia el exterior de la tierra. Todo un desafío en sus años.
aw I love watching all these credits! They're amazing! Really shows how much the show has developed and changed. The Next Generation was the first series I saw ... and though I haven't seen much of all of them, I do love them all! :) The intros are REALLY good! :D I mean after you hear the credits a thousand times they get a bit annoying, but actually the scores/songs are really good! :) I think the visuals for the Enterprise intro is by far the best though ;) lol
After a recent visit to Movie Park germany, wich features a Star Trek themed coaster, I grew more interested in the whole thing and I’m not disappointed
The music of the first and original series was so awesome and iconic, it´s a pitty and very absurd that it was changed from then on and also in the movies.
Enterprises theme is just so perfect in hindsight. This isnt the utopia of the future yet. This is a group of humans (and others) stumbling head first into the future like the explorers of the past. And that theme scknowledges that. We arent perfect, but if we have faith in what we want to do it will carry us forward
I noticed the first intro to TOS was not included, the one where the main melody was played by orchestral music instead of the opera style singing. I preferred that one.
The Next Generation is superior in every way. The music has feeling, story and Patrick Stewart is elevating the whole atmosphere with his voice timbre and acting. Best Star Trek show ever!
I liked the TOS theme with the electronic version the best!!! In "Where no man has gone before" they had the electronic theme without the voiceover. As great as the other ST themes are the first is the best.
For me it is 1. Voyager, it has better music and ship shots. 2. TOS, catchy tune, upbeat, fast and lively. 3. DS9, the music, not the ship/station shots, charming music, relaxing and the TOS feel. 4. ENT, not the music, the shots, the music adds to the shots, it gives a history of our space exploration. Also 4th. TNG, not so the shots, they are boring, but the music, lovely and lively. 5. DIS, no, just NO.
Dear Mr. Berman and all those responsible for Star Trek, please replace that unspeakable theme song of Star Trek Enterprise on all streaming providers and future releases. The 'Archer's Theme' by Dennis McCarthy is much more appropriate. 100,000 fans can't be wrong!
I understand why they had to change "boldly go where no man has gone before" to "boldly go where no one has gone before", and I'm all for equality and social progress and all that. But . . . it just doesn't sound quite the same. Just sayin'.
Yeah, 'man' is just short for 'human'. So 'where no man has gone before' just means where no human has gone before. Not 'where no man, but maybe some bitch, has gone before'.
@@quaronncz464 Ah. A purist. Well, me too in a lot of ways, but I also realize that Trek cannot survive on purists alone. It needs to capture "the next generation"...and the one after that, and the one after that. By that measure, it has succeeded. I believe the only longer running shows on TV are TODAY and MEET THE PRESS.
That theme song from Enterprise reminded me too much of the music you hear playing over the sound system at the supermarket. I preferred the Enterprise Mirror Darkly titles; now that was awesome theme music.
Yeah, I just couldn't connect with any aspect of Enterprise. The intro feels kind of disjointed in the sense that they take you through the better part of about 800-1000 years worth of history (old clipper ships up until the final shot of the Enterprise itself; kinda just ballparking the time frame here) and 90% of the intro has nothing to do with the ship itself until it's like, "Oh, all of a sudden Enterprise appears out of nowhere in the final few seconds." Add to that the radio rock intro music and... yeah, I just can't jive with that. TNG, DS9, and Voyager have by far the best intros, with Voyager being my all-time favorite of the bunch in every regard. Great visuals, fantastic score, and a compelling story where they aren't bound to the established lore of your run-of-the-mill Alpha quadrant drama. Every episode was full of potential for who knows what and I would say that in almost every metric they achieved that, by and large.
I was brought up on Voyager and Enterprise so naturally these are my favs including the intros…but my god can we please have a decent Star Trek series please 🙏
its not even that hard, really. just set it during the 24th century like the 90ies shows, with all the trappings that come with that (ships, uniforms, consoles, what have you), and use it to comment on current political trends in an episodic format, while not forgetting to mince it with the occasional bit of progress to remind the audience that theres an overarching arc that is being progressed ever so slightly and subtly. thats what originally drew fans to star trek, and what made them stay. after the low quality, mass produced garbage studios put out today, that should be like a breath of fresh air for anyone. minus the lgbt-phobia, the 90es were the golden age of tv.
@@ryanmoore320 yeah. weirdly, the 80es era anti-russian bias is creeping back in if you look at stuff like shadow and bone. like, not intelligent critcism of the increasing totalitarianist tendencies of putin, but just stereotypes. its so stupid. and then you have to worry about not putting too much social progress in a new show, because if you do the internet conservatives will go nuts, as if theyre personally attacked by a gay person existing near them or something. its.. exhausting.
I think the DS9 intro's biggest problem is just that's it's unwatchable (in the long run) in practice because of its length... It starts out strong but past the first 30 seconds or so you'll only ever see ships moving around the station with the same fairly repetitive intro theme. All the others are varied enough that you could actually bear to see them a few dozen times without skipping...say if you were, for example, watching THEM ON TELEVISION WHEN THEY AIRED.
Tbh when I was binge watching DS9 on Netflix I had to start skipping the intro until they actually added ships to the intro. The same 20 shots of the station gets old after a while
I think that personally, what you described about the DS9 intro is one of the things that I just didn't like as much in regards to the show as a whole. I get that there are people that enjoy having massive overarching storylines that take one or more seasons to tell in their entirety... I just don't happen to be one of those people. The intro sequence kind of encapsulates that by basically only showing the station itself with a scant few ships flying around. The vast majority of the show takes place in the same region(s) of space and is focused on how DS9 is involved in the grandiose story they're telling. I don't have a problem with that at all, but I much prefer the smaller episodic approach of Voyager and the fact that on any given broadcast you never knew what you might run into. I think the plot of DS9 ended up being pretty great, but works best as a series that you can binge over the course of a few weeks rather than having through years' worth of time to see how it all plays out. Basically, it's a great series to watch in the modern era on Hulu; but in the 90s when it was on air? It was a much harder show for me to watch and I was thankful to be able to audible to Voyager a couple years later.

Enterprise was such an underrated show
everyone hated it at the time but liked it after, sad seeing ad if they liked it at the time it could have had so much funding and so many cool ideas
Enterprise was too overacting so anoying
Too bad Enterprise didn’t last long. The ratings weren’t too good at all.
@theapple3160 "everyone hated it at the time but liked it after" sounds like star wars prequels, both being prequels and both having inferior sequels/reboots afterwards
I could listen to Voyager over and over again, it makes me feel happy and nostalgic.
Me too. And then I got tears in my eyes.
i realize it is kinda randomly asking but does anybody know a good site to watch new tv shows online ?
@Russell Duke Flixportal :)
@Lane Genesis Thanks, I signed up and it seems to work :D I appreciate it!!
@Russell Duke No problem :)
I love Voyager's theme, it's very majestic and beautiful and kind of yearning which makes sense given the show's storyline

tg I am not the only one getting the chills with the DS9-theme. I really think it is an absolutely great score.
I love the second version of it aswell as voyager
Deep space nine is my favorite too. But all are great.
I started watching DS9 (again).

I loved ST: Enterprise Always wondered what the Human Adventure was like before Pike and Kirk.
I can never tire of Star Trek
I really appreciate what they were trying to do with Enterprise, they actually wanted to use 'Beautiful Day' by U2 but couldn't get the licence. It makes a lot more sense when you look at it in that light.
I'm not sure i would like beautiful day that much.
@@boertje1998 if you consider the backlash „faith of the heart“ got?!
Holy shit, I'll take "Faith of the Heart" over "Beautiful Day" anytime.
And that's saying something.
I think Faith of the Heart fits Enterprise more
The Next Generation is my personal fave, closely followed by Voyager. It's so damn catchy, I'm always finding myself humming it :)
Gene Roddenberry Said that The Theme Song to Star Trek The Next Generation, is in fact called, Life is A Dream
Tng and voy same here ;)
@@robertthomas5736 yes it’s used in the TOS films, and is named as such in ST: The Final Frontier
Both written by the great Jerry Goldsmith.
Every time I feel sad or unmotivated, the Enterprise intro uplifts my mood.
This takes me back to the delta quadrant.
Theme for the Next Gen is my favorite idk
Enterprise is my favorite, thanks to it I got into ST.

You included both Enterprise intros, but only the second from both TNG and DS9. So this isn't all intros, it's just most.

Yeah, 'man' is just short for 'human'. So 'where no man has gone before' just means where no human has gone before. Not 'where no man, but maybe some bitch, has gone before'.
I guess nostalgic old folks like us would go for the first.

music peeps- notice on the second enterprise it changes key?

star trek is just magic

I do prefer the original DS9 theme to the "up tempo" version. The wandering bass line in the revamp just drives me up the wall...
I like the Enterprise NX01 intro
Voyager has the best intro by far.
0:33 When kraken attacks my ship in KSP and it accelerates to warp 20

I think the DS9 intro's biggest problem is just that's it's unwatchable (in the long run) in practice because of its length... It starts out strong but past the first 30 seconds or so you'll only ever see ships moving around the station with the same fairly repetitive intro theme.
All the others are varied enough that you could actually bear to see them a few dozen times without skipping...say if you were, for example, watching THEM ON TELEVISION WHEN THEY AIRED.
Tbh when I was binge watching DS9 on Netflix I had to start skipping the intro until they actually added ships to the intro. The same 20 shots of the station gets old after a while
I think that personally, what you described about the DS9 intro is one of the things that I just didn't like as much in regards to the show as a whole. I get that there are people that enjoy having massive overarching storylines that take one or more seasons to tell in their entirety... I just don't happen to be one of those people. The intro sequence kind of encapsulates that by basically only showing the station itself with a scant few ships flying around. The vast majority of the show takes place in the same region(s) of space and is focused on how DS9 is involved in the grandiose story they're telling. I don't have a problem with that at all, but I much prefer the smaller episodic approach of Voyager and the fact that on any given broadcast you never knew what you might run into.
I think the plot of DS9 ended up being pretty great, but works best as a series that you can binge over the course of a few weeks rather than having through years' worth of time to see how it all plays out. Basically, it's a great series to watch in the modern era on Hulu; but in the 90s when it was on air? It was a much harder show for me to watch and I was thankful to be able to audible to Voyager a couple years later.
