As promised, here are fresh season-specific score breakdowns for ENT, tidied for consistency. "The Andorian Incident" and "Carpenter Street" both went up a point from before.

Ooh, look, an infographic! Here's a recap of my episode scores for Star Trek: Enterprise across the whole series, with new and (I think) interesting score breakdowns.

A couple scores changed once I locked down what separates a 0 from a 1 from a 2. See the comments for a fresh graph of each season.

After 3 entertaining but uneven seasons of low-tech TNG/DS9/VOY adventures, Star Trek: Enterprise finishes strong as the TOS prequel it was meant to be.

"Isn't there 1 more episode?" Not yet! Too early in the timeline for that.

For now, "Terra Prime" is the end of ENT, as it should be.

Onto TOS!

Another week, another graph! Rewatching Season 3 of Star Trek: Enterprise was an absolutely wild ride. And it all averaged out to...perfectly average? I might faint; someone get me a Double Superbeef.

I only planned to keep track of one major trope; this season demanded two. I had no choice.

For my Star Trek rewatch project, I'm keeping one season ahead of the graphs I'm posting. That gives me time to waffle about my ratings.

Whereas Enterprise Season 1 was better than I remembered, Season 2 didn't hold up as well. A couple episodes landed higher than expected, but several slipped.

MM8 recording update (don't worry; my life isn't *entirely* Star Trek now): I resumed my practice run last night; I'm now into the second round of Robot Masters. I'm feeling good—there's some actual showoffery now.

I'm also working on a test project for my new video editing software. Stay tuned...

In two weeks, I've rewatched two seasons of Enterprise. At this pace, I'll get through the whole franchise in about a year.

I promised graphs. ENT Season 1 was a bit better than I remembered! Scores of 3-5 are my happy place, but I'll put up with a 2. See my previous post for my scoring rationale.

For my (re)watch of ALL of Star Trek, I'm rating each episode and movie on a scale of 0 to 5. Expect a weekly graph starting soon!

First, though, I think it's important to share my methodology. I'm not following a strict rubric, but here's a summary of the key factors contributing to my scores:

Here's the watch order for my big Star Trek project. My views on continuity echo those of website Ex Astris Scientia.

Officially, this is a rewatch of the first 50 years of Trek, and a second attempt to get through the last 10 years—previously foiled by canon rage, tone issues, and a weak stomach.

I'm taking a break from movies to pursue a project I've been contemplating for years: a full rewatch of ALL of Star Trek.

It's fine; I've got 700 hours to spare.

More details to come, but I'm following in-universe chronology, starting with Enterprise. I'm also rating every episode. Expect graphs.

MM8 recording update! This is one of my weakest Classic games, and I realized that getting good enough to show off has been a barrier to progress. It's been *work*.

So I decided to stop working and start goofing around.

Last night's practice session was *fun*. I may have finally hit my stride.

As mentioned before, I've been thinking about sharing my Letterboxd movie reviews here.

I've watched 81 this year (~3/week) and reviewed 39 (so, every other one)—no limits on decade, language, or genre.

I hope you enjoy! I'm looking forward to being told how mind-bogglingly wrong my opinions are.

I've spent most of the last decade working on Mega Man fangames. It's been fun, it's been gratifying, it's been exhausting. It's time for something new. Or, perhaps...something old. Getting back to recording is a goal for this year, and I've started shaking off the dust.

I guess now I'm here, too? Thanks for letting me crash your party.
