That's all I thought of Enterprise when I tried to watch it. Meh.
Heh. Me too. I couldn't get into it. The characters all seemed relatively...dull. Lacking the sort of inner fire that showed up in previous Trek incarnations. I don't know - maybe it's just time for the franchise to take a few years' break, refresh itself and start again in another five, ten years or so. *shrug* Or take DS9 to the big screen.
And yeah, I don't have the same starry-eyed view of Wesley as I used to, but I certainly don't find him intolerable and I do think fandom and the world at large are far too harsh on the kid. It's not his fault he's uber-smart and everyone else isn't. He needs a slogan like the old Pantene commercials, perhaps - "Don't hate me because I'm gifted." ^_^
