No one thinks they are doing a bad job on Star Trek, or any other given show. Look at Rick Berman and his "Valentines" to the fans. Every time I hear about that, I cringe. Enterprise may have been one show too many and tey certainly wasted time, money and effort with some of those storylines. By season 4 things had improved, but the powers that be felt enough was enough, oddly enough.
