Enterprise is a lot better if you assume the crew is supposed to be inept, inexperienced and kinda stupid.
That makes zero sense considering humans have been exploring for centuries and already come up with protocols to handle the situations that seem to repeatedly cause issues for the NX-01 crew, but maybe thinking isn't helpful for enjoying the show.
But hey! Look! Did you notice T'Pol has both TITS and ASS?? Incredible!
Yes! They are so fallible, and believably so most the time, that I really appreciated their missteps.
The only time I didn't appreciate thinking was when it decontamination time. I just pretend it is like watching an old b/w show with an embedded detergent ad: an unfortunate relic of its time that is just baked into it.
The horniess of the early 2000s makes Gene's vision of the Original Series seem downright conservative.
