Default Re: OT: Enterprise...What did you think?

Liked:
1) Vulcans consider humans to be primitive (besides being emotional), and don't entirely trust them. The "partnership" is unequal, and humans resent the Vulcans' paternalistic attitude and policy of withholding technology and information.
2) Ditto the point about the crew members not being competent in every area. I hope they keep that up. Even the captain shouldn't be able to fix the warp engines, command the vessel, do diplomacy, fight like a ninja, and also get the babes. (Just the Last four. )
Disliked:
Why does "adult" have to include constant foul language and gratuitous semi-nudity? How ironic that Hollywood portrays advanced Earthlings as being uniformly agnostic, yet still has them use "damn" and "hell" any time they get excited. Can't they come up with anything more clever to say when confronted with the unknown than "What the hell is that?" Not to mention that it's anachronistic. When's the Last time you heard someone born in the late 20th century use a curse word like "Zounds" or "Egad"? And when's the Last time you rubbed oil all over a coworker?
