How much cheese-induced canine diarrhea do you think the crew had to clean up bc archer wasn’t a responsible pet owner? Seriously, he let Porthos romp free on worlds they’d just landed on before extensive testing-- almost killed him in that one episode too, which he tried to blame on the alien hosts.
Archer was awful, yes. If his bullshit with Porthos didn’t directly contribute to the prime directive, it should have. But that wasn’t Porthos’ fault. Poor guy was just trying to boldly go, and he’d no idea those trees were sacred.
He also got the worst ending of nearly any character, with Scotty just misplacing him.
ENT is the best Star Trek because of Porthos. It’s not even a contest. Best character in any Trek, ever.
