I respect it more, but I still can’t get into it. I find that the feeling they were going for - wild west in space - just doesn’t gel at all with the story of a futuristic utopian Federation and (essentially) a milliary grade ship with professional personel.
There are episodes where it’s one or the other, and not the combination of both, that work the best.
I think the TNG era managed to get away from this weird sense very well while still paying homage. But on ENT it shows how trying to follow in those footsteps can give weird results. All the criticism ENT has gotten is really the result of trying to make sense of TOS.
Ironically, VOY had the most opportunity to run with the wild west theme, and I guess they couldn’t figure it out either. Maybe SNW has, from what I’ve heard.
