Yes, looking back at them they make a change from later stories which have a stronger sense of franchise-identity, but nevertheless, they can make people look askance at the series when it starts out.
I'm hoping to find some way to map this thinking onto Enterprise.

Okay, here's a related question: When do you think the next new Trek show will be created and released?

That wasn't the question. It was hypothetical, designed to elicit controversy. WHEN they make a new show, whether it's next year or next century, that's the question.

I don't really see how my answer doesn't qualify as an "answer", per say. You asked when and my answer was, it'll be a while.
To further elaborate, it really depends on how successful this string of movies is. If the first movie bombs and Paramount isn't inclined to make more then it'll probably be a long time. A longer gap than the one since Enterprise. Finally somebody will gather the courage to commission/write a premise, and a TV series might be the result. If the first movie is successful, they'll make a second one and I don't see them throwing a new TV series into the mix for a while. That sort of thing muddies the water, in ijdgaf-hypothetical-movie-producer-speak/think. Maybe after a bit they'd branch out and make a new series. Or the movie series would run its course and, after another hiatus, a new series might come out of the woodwork. The question just has so many variables involved. And I don't get how "not soon" is... wrong? Would "the day after tomorrow" be a better answer? I don't see how. While it gains something in precision, it loses quite a bit in terms of plausability and all around well-informedness.

Is this really your answer, or are you trying to be difficult? Is a simple answer expressed in years, totally nonbinding and based on personal opinion too much to ask?
