Enterprise era new trek show? (startrek.website)

I'm not sure if this is the right community or not, but I'm curious what y'all would think if they came out with a new show set in the Enterprise era. Ent is one of my favorite shows, and I always felt like we got screwed out of some really compelling TV when they ended they stopped making Trek after ENT ended. That era of humanity, the coalition of planets, the filling in of details on humanity's early relationship with the Vulcans. Plus, it has denobulans, and we need more denobulans.

So, I guess I'm just curious if I'm in the minority or not. Would any of y'all be excited if they announced a show in that era?

I think a non-Starfleet show in that era might be interesting, maybe set on some freighter that is a generation or two after the ones Travis grew up on (so we do not spend months for each journey).

Honestly, that sounds like my ideal show. I've always wanted a show that gave us something outside of Starfleet, and I've also always wanted a show that showed us a little more of earth (cannot wait for a sf academy). A freighter based show could us both. Frequent trips to earth to pick up supplies, space without the protection of the military's flagship, or the protection of being an important military space station. Tight knit crew, likely family members and all the drama and story that comes with that. God, that would be an awesome show.

I’d rather see a one-off two hour direct-to-streaming movie for this kind of thing.

It would be great to build out the world into civilian settings, but I don’t think an entire show.

Otherwise, single season limited series set in the 22nd could be a way to get to some of the things that Enterprise did not pick up on.
