Not parent, but; Enterprise is one of my favorites. Some things that I really like about it:

  • The enterprise itself is bare and functional. Not luxurious with nice carpets. This ups the stakes and realism.
  • They get beat up a lot and their ship is quite primitive.
  • Archer is mostly likable and nicely balanced, although he gets a bit dark in later seasons.
  • All main cast have distinct personalities and are well acted and likable. Most of them also grow as member of the crew.
  • The crew interactions are well written mostly.
  • The tension between Archer and T'Pol is intense.
  • I really like the cmdr. Shren storyline.
  • Hoshi is hot (and smart) so I didn't mind the de-con scenes. And besides the eye-candy they did have a story.

These are the things I can think of right now, but I really enjoyed it over all (of course with its ups and downs per episode).
