Enterprise: Vanishing Point (2002)
Lost potential
Watching this episode I was excited to see a classic Star Trek style transporter incident episode where a second tier officer steps up, moves their character along, we learn more about them and have a great episode to boot. They almost nailed it until the last five minutes and then it all fell apart.
It seems to be an issue with Enterprise in general. The first two seasons are good but not polished (I find there to be a lot of lazy editing too, especially at the end/epilogue of each episode) and episodes sometimes badly written which is a great shame considering the potential of the series and this episode in particular. It's an old school classic set up with a minor character stepping up but alas to no avail.
Still better than any Star Trek that came after though. Movies included.
