This. The final season showed finally started showing all of the promise that the series was supposed to deliver in the first three, especially once the temporal cold war was eliminated from the show and they actually focused on the beginnings of the Federation. And a bitter Berman shit on all of that in the final episode because of the cancellation. If A) that final episode hadn't happened (or at least certain parts of it) and B) if it hadn't been cancelled and had at least one or two more seasons, then Enterprise wouldn't leave such a bad taste in many fans mouths and drive a lot of use to deny it ever existed.

*Edit because apparently I can't spell tonight
