Star Trek: Enterprise premiered on Wednesday, September 26, 2001. For some reason I decided to buy the above TV Guide, perhaps thinking it might be of some value some day... perhaps a day placed over 24 years later. Sorting through my paper archives, recently, unearthed something that might be of more value to collectors than moi.
As per my normal operating procedure with Trekkie shows, although no longer, I watched the first two episodes. For the premiere show, I journeyed down to Logan Avenue, here in Toronto, to watch with friend Neil. We were both unimpressed. Episode Two was all I needed to proclaim Star Trek: Enterprise a horrible series. Yes, I know that's not enough to accurately gauge a show's qualities, or lack of same. I did hear it got better. That I believe. (What sits down, must go up.)
By the way, I'm willing to sell that edition, that "Rogers Cable" edition, of TV Guide. Keep in mind that it is for the Southern Ontario broadcast market, which would include US border towns. Looking farther afield, maybe someone in Des Moines, Iowa, or Richmond, Virginia, would be interested in acquiring the book. It is in mint condition, as though it just came hot off the press — the pages between the covers have a newsprint texture and look, but the covers have nice four-colour saturation. Leave a comment below (which I won't publish) if you're willing to bid.
I don't know the series, and I'm not a collector in the traditional sense, so why keep it?
