I don't hate Archer per se ... It's the way they protray him. He runs around with a snarl on his face all the time. He's angry, self righteous. he thinks his morals are better than anyone else. Also it's one thing to say human try to do the right thing, but in reality they will do what is nessacary without the self remorse -- Enterprise and All Things Trek

also consider how can you have a man in command when he won't let others do their jobs.

He shouldn't be the one going on suicide missions. His ship was almost destroy because he didn't want to order someone else to possibly die.

His death wish in the end cause him to lose one third of his crew and nearly a destroyed ship.

Then later on the Xindi weapon, he had to be the one to finish off the weapon without backup. The job was Malcolm and a Maco.

I just hate the idea that he has to be right all the time.

I'm also glad that they didn't pair T'Pol up with him. It would have demeaned T'Pol as a woman and a person. He has the personality of an egocentric who think of women as second class and his servant.

T'Pol with Tucker is good because it allows her to be strong but also willing to meet someone half way.

Tucker since the beginning has been the person who has been there for her when she has problems she needs to deal with.

You're right about Archer. He's not going to go anywhere. Like the other Star Trek shows, they will put the Captain in harms way, making it appear that he will be lost to the crew but some how in the end makes it back to the Enterprise.
