I remember my Trekkie dad excitedly putting this on and then every week there was an Enterprise night.
I also recall how it slowly got replaced by another show in a mere month and how even as a kid I was left scratching my head at certain things.
I re-attempted a watch as an adult sci-fi fan with a writing career and cringed.
T'pol was very clearly for male eyes and not very engaging for a vulcan. She even had a storyline about mating, this seemed to be a thing in the 2000s with female characters going into an uncontrollable heat/mating period.
There was also this weird decontamination sequence that involved them slathering jelly on each other after each mission. Conveniently, there were fewer of those scenes with the men.
What really put me off was the blatant colonialist mindset. Almost every species was barbaric and the gleaming Enterprise was bringing it a more civilized approach. Oh that's your tradition? No, we can't sit and talk it out...you're barbaric and disgust me. Conform to our standards now.
The OG and TNG had a more subtle version of this. But the crews respected local systems. Thing 'Justice' in TNG when Wesley lumbered into the death penalty.
Maybe it was the time period, i.e a post 9/11 world, that triggered this. Some reviews state it got better with Archer learning. That shouldn't mean sitting through nearly 20 episodes of cringe and Bakula monologuing and whining.

The judges are as bad as ANTM in the nearly 2000s. So toxic and nasty.
I'm watching a season set in 2021. One girl feels faint on set and they call her unprofessional...umm she's a human?
The judges are nasty for no reason and lack professionalism themselves.
They butchered the girls' looks in the makeover episode and claimed they were good.
No diversity in the size of models. Again in 2021. But they cry in one episode about body shaming. Yes, I know slender women can be body shamed but don't harp on about it when every single model has the same body.
Overall, it embodies the worst of the industry, serves mediocre photos and depicts everything that should be left behind.
