Every Star Trek Opening Titles Ranked Worst To Best

9. Enterprise

To be fair, it grows on you!

The introduction to Enterprise features many images of the achievements that mankind has made throughout time, leading up to the advancement into space travel and the launch of the Phoenix. The message behind the credits roll was to show exactly what we've done to get to where we are. It has indeed been a long road.

However, the decision to add vocals over the credits is what rockets this intro to the bottom of the list. It is so tonally different from what had come before, or what has come since, that it stands out in quite a negative way. There was an attempt as the show went into its third season to jazz it up a bit, though even that was bizarre as the show had entered its darkest period.

The fourth season two-parter In A Mirror, Darkly uses a different, Terran inspired opening sequence that is far superior to the standard vocal. Archer's Theme, composed by Dennis McCarthy to accompany the captain, had originally been slated as the overall theme, until Rick Berman and Brannon Braga decided to take this series in another direction. Unfortunately, that makes this sequence justifiably skippable.
