it feels like a show that's not at all concerned with winning over people who didn't like any of the previous seasons
See I dont agree, I feel like theyre pulling out way more fanservice in this season than ever? But, I already mentioned that in the DISCO thread.

A very silly Enterprise ep featuring Jeffry Coombs AND Ethan Phillips as Ferengi. I am confused - I assume this is the first time humans meet Ferengi because in a prior ep at the monastery someone mentions 'em and all the humans shrug.
But wasnt there a terrible S1 episode of TNG where they meet Ferengi and act like they never have before?

the enterprise nx-01 (ffs why do i know that) encounters several things/people/species that based on lore it absolutely should not -- but they fudge it by never letting the things/people/species be named
it's garbage, but they either couldn't think up any better interlocutors or felt they needed half-assed references to known entities for people to watch

Yeah I get the impression one has to do a bit of hand-waving when it comes to how canon Enterprise was compared to everything else.

IIRC they get around it by never saying the word Ferengi, they're just an unnamed species of space pirate
Really too bad TNG didn't go with Roddenberry's concept of horny space pirates with enormous codpieces.
