* There exists an interview with Creator/ScottBakula conducted in the run-up to the release of ''Film/StarTrekNemesis'' in which he says, with utmost confidence, that the next ''Star Trek'' movie would be about him and his crew. Come 2008 (later delayed to 2009, but close enough), after what would have been the customary seven years, we did indeed get [[Film/StarTrek2009 a new film]]...about [[Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries Captain Kirk]]. Presumably, if both ''Nemesis'' or ''Enterprise'' hadn't both bombed and nearly killed the whole ''Star Trek'' franchise dead in its tracks, we would have seen Captain Archer on the big screen instead.

This may have even been alluded to in the ''Nemesis'' advertising, which proclaimed it was "a generation's final journey", implying that any subsequent ''Star Trek'' feature films would feature an alternative cast and crew.

* The NX-01 would have been refitted with a secondary hull underneath the warp nacelles, ceramic plating, and a deflector dish, making it look very much like the prototype for what would become the ''Constitution'' class in TOS. The new design appeared in the 2011 "Ships of the Line" calendar. Doug Drexler claims the staff was not totally sold on this idea, however. (A blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment from ''Series/StarTrekPicard'' season 2 makes this refit canon -- a flashback shows young Jean-Luc Picard playing with a model of the upgraded NX-class.)

* A few character names ended up being changed. Jonathan Archer was originally Jackson Archer until it was found that there was only one real-life person named Jackson Archer in the United States, which could leave the show vulnerable to lawsuits; it was then changed to Jeffrey Archer before someone remembered there was a quite famous author by that name. Travis Mayweather's first name would have been Joseph if the character had remained older. Trip Tucker's nickname was originally going to be Spike, which was changed to avoid comparisons to ''[[Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer Buffy]]'', then it was "Charlie" until someone had the idea of adding the "III" to his name.

** Mike Sussman pitched another ending for ''Enterprise'', which would have featured Creator/LeonardNimoy returning as Spock. It was have started with Spock in the 24th Century giving advice to a young Human/Vulcan officer in Starfleet, telling a story about how in the beginning of the 23rd Century, he received counsel on his life and career from T'Pol, who is a legend by the 24th Century. The story would have featured the entire NX-01 crew returning in age makeup, involving them stealing the NX-01 ''Enterprise'' to go on one last mission. Why this idea wasn't considered is baffling (perhaps because the William Shatner appearance fell apart, it wasn't even considered) as no doubt this would have been seen as a far more proper "passing the torch" and finale than Berman and Braga's attempt to make the finale a TNG episode (Berman and Braga were likely against anyone else doing the finale), and Mike Sussman is still frustrated his idea was not picked up.
