I actually like it. TNG's theme was annoyingly bombastic to my ears, DS9's is basically nothing, Voy is okay I guess.
Not saying ENT song was the best choice there could be, but I don't know why it should be gospel that ST has to have orchestral tunes. And for a prequel that was about how it all started, I think it was fine to go with something different.
And it's not like an opening theme is a dealbreaker either way. I always skip the opening credits on the shows where they go for over a minute. I think for people who don't like ENT (it's not exactly popular) this is just another notch.
BTW I'm half way through SNW S02 and I'm not tired of its opening. First time ST nailed it in my book.
Couldn't skip back then.
You could've always muted the sound.
Thought the time honored tradition was switching to another channel to watch another show's opener so you'd know what was going on when you switched there during commercial breaks. Just my family?
I agree with you about TNG and DS9 completely. SNW is the best music since the earlier movies, IMO. I love it.
