I think we can call it a bribe

According to comments made by Executive Producer Brannon Braga in discussions with fans at TrekMovie.com, Berman's original idea for the series was to have the entire first season set on Earth as Humanity's first-ever warp starship was constructed. This was soon decided to be too far removed from the style of the franchise as a whole, and so the premise was redrafted. memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/St

@archer Yes, I heard about that, I wonder what and where my twin is.

As for NCIS, the Starfleet archives on it are quite intriguing. Human entertainment never ceases to fascinate, both in the past and the present.

Is your child texting about Deep Space Nine? Know the codes:

BTW: Bajor's Temple Wormhole
DTF: Dominion Threatening Federation
OMG: Odo Monitoring Garak
SMDH: Strictly Milataristic Dominion Heirarchy
AKA: Alert Klingon Allies
FFS: First Ferengi in Starfleet
JFC: Jadzia Fighting Cardassians

The producers – under the guidance of Roddenberry's successor, Rick Berman – sought to set the series apart from those that had come before, creating nearly every set, prop and costume anew and tending toward a more encompassing, "you-are-there" style of storytelling. memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/St

@archer Good point, it all happening for the Kelvin universe split! I just rewatched the Mirror universe two parter last week to refresh all the Mirror universe facts out there. I think these days we need to be specific about which of the three main universes we are talking about: Prime, Kelvin and Mirror.

Enterprise was set in the 22nd century, at a time before the Federation and while United Earth was just becoming a player in interstellar politics. memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/St

Perhaps the most controversial of all the Star Trek spin-offs, and certainly the most polarizing, Enterprise was created in the hopes of revitalizing the Star Trek franchise since ratings for the previous series, Star Trek: Voyager, had waned near the end. Intended to be more modern, with characters far from Gene Roddenberry's 24th century Utopian Humanity, Enterprise was situated in one of the least explored eras in the Star Trek universe and a time only 150 years from present day.

As of 2018, due to its placement in the Star Trek timeline, Enterprise is the only Star Trek production whose continuity is not affected by the events of the 2009 film reintroducing the crew of James T. Kirk, making it the only TV series in the Star Trek universe to remain in continuity in both the prime and alternate realities. memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/St

Though Phlox finds humans fairly simplistic anatomically, he likes their "charming optimism," and has said of his time on Enterprise, "Every moment's been an adventure for me. Humans are so unpredictable." startrek.com/database_article/

Luckily, Phlox trusted Archer to make the right decision, and gained a new respect for his captain. When Enterprise received its assignment to venture into the Delphic Expanse, Phlox opted to stay onboard, citing his loyalty to Archer.
