Star Trek Enterprise"s Real Problem Was The Vulcans

Star Trek: Enterprise's showrunner, Manny Coto, identified the Vulcans as one of the biggest core issues that undermined the prequel series in Peter Holmstrom's oral history, The Center Seat: 55 Years of Star Trek. Star Trek: Enterprise ran for four seasons on the United Paramount Network from 2001-2005. The series was low-rated and succumbed to Star Trek franchise fatigue as well as a regime change in the struggling UPN Network. However, Enterprise has since found a new, more appreciative audience after the series became available for streaming.
Enterprise was set about a century after Star Trek: First Contact when Dr. Zephram Cochrane's (James Cromwell) inaugural warp flight caught the attention of nearby Vulcans. Yet Enterprise revealed that the relationship between humans and Vulcans was not smooth sailing. After United Earth established Starfleet and built the NX-01 Enterprise, humanity's first warp 5-capable starship, the Vulcans warned Man was not ready to explore deep space. Rather than staunch allies to Starfleet, the Vulcans were largely depicted as hindrances to the Earthers' mission to explore strange new worlds. The Vulcans installed Sub-commander T'Pol (Jolene Blalock) on the Enterprise in order for her to report back to Vulcan High Command, although Captain Jonathan Archer (Scott Bakula) soon earned T'Pol's loyalty.
