Enterprise: "Stigma" (Spoilers)

I have a problem with all the Vulcans being emotional or edgy after hundreds of years of refining their logic and control. They don’t come across like the icicle that Spock portrayed himself as in the original series.
I just hope that Paramount takes Enterprise or the entire Star Trek franchise away from the current production team and give it to someone who is competent and do not preach to the choir.

I liked it.
But then, you’d be hard pressed to come up with a Star Trek episode that I actively disliked

About the best you’ll get is “I’ve seen it too many times and it’s getting old”

I’m gonna watch 'em all, good, bad, or ugly, to the bitter end. It could wind up being the Opal and Viva show if no one wants to hang out in the ENT threads anymore.
(Special guest appearances by NoClueBoy and possibly Chuck Forbin, who always had a defense ready for every ep.) :wink:

I think the threads are regularly more entertaining than the actual show. We need other shows we do weekly weirdo-fests on also.

How about Austin City Limits?

I’m listening to Stevie Ray play Little Sister right now and I couldn’t be happier.

Well, I could be happier…

[goes into kitchen thingy and mixes a drink, Crown and Coke]

There… now I’m happier!

I’ll watch Enterprise like I did DS9 if’n it doesn’t get better. I watched DS9 when I was home and it was on and I didn’t forget. 'Cause it wasn’t that interesting to me.

ENT needs to pick it up and get gooder!

I rarely missed TNG. Even though it had some stinker shows, it was good overall. ENT has been well below Trek par so far this season, with a couple of redeeming eps.

Don’t worry, Viva. I’ll never leave you.

“Stay alive! I will find you!”

Well, NCB, that’s a relief, because talking to myself in a thread would have been far beyond pathetic. I am touched (in the head, too–ha ha!) and you’re gonna make me cry like the sap that I truly am.

I don’t even get UPN and yet I post in Enterprise threads.

Gah, I need a life.

I will not give up and I only bitch because I care.
(at least that’s what I say to my kids when I’m mad at them)

Unfortunately I will be working Tuesday and won’t get a chance to post the spoiler. Dang!

I just wish there was a way to make them listen to fans… but then again there are so many different and weird ideas out there from weird and different fans it would probably be maddening. So instead, I wish they’d listen to the Straight Dope Fans!

Yeah, I can’t give up Enterprise. It’s tripe, but it’s familiar tripe, and I have a nostalgic attachment to all things Trek… Well, most things Trek. Wasn’t enough to make me stick with Voyager, but Enterprise has better uniforms (love those jumpsuits), and somewhat more likable characters, so that’s got to count for something. Like it or not, I’m in it for the long haul.

Plus, I’ve got to have something to come in and bitch about every week. :slight_smile:

Thanks for the posts guys and gals! I agree that these threads are the most enjoyable parts of the show.

Sad part is that I wanted to like the show. I liked the concept. I liked the first season more often then not. Heck, I even liked the theme song.

But this second season has been mostly horrific. Badly done rehashes of prior TNG and ST themes, along with several blatent ripoffs of Sci-Fi movies (Enemy Mine ect. . . ). This is the reverse of the typical ST pattern- real bad first season, strong second, great third.

I even watched the last 2 seasons of Voyager! But now I tape the episodes but never bother watching them. Darn it, I want the show to be good. Oh well, I will keep an eye on the previews and look to hop back in when the shows pick back up.

Based on the posts, it is nice to see Travis is still playing an integral role on the show. :wink:

The more serious continuity blip is that T’Pol consented to the mind meld. It went deeper than she planned, which is why she broke out of it, but she gave total consent for the guy to reach in and touch her thoughts. Funny how she didn’t mention that in this episode; think it might have been held against her? :rolleyes:

We weren’t supposed to remember the first one… just the second more forced one. You know we are just slack jawed viewers who aren’t smart enough to remember these things.

I don’t know… this show has been going into the toilet since the “Carbon Creek” episode.

I haven’t really been all too interested in watching the show and don’t necessarily care if I miss the Wednesday night ep or even the Sunday night re-run. I guess it’s more entertaining to read about it here in CPlant’s spoilers threads.

Maybe I’ll watch the eps that involve Andorians. It’s always great to see a disguised Vorta. :smiley:

Thanks a lot, kasuo.
Now I have to worry and Bragga’s hit men showing up at my house.
And not a plasma shotgun (or whatever the guy had in Broken Arrow) in sight.

^:)^

Yeah, the SDMB discussions are the funnest part of Enterprise for me, at this point.

I agree with whichever of you said last season was way better. Who was it? … who was it?

elf6c. I agree with elf6c about how last season was better.

And I used to like the theme song, too, but I realized recently that it’s actually pretty dumb and bad. So I don’t like it much anymore.

Will you guys can it? I’ve already got Paramount guys in Bermuda shorts and argyle socks sneaking around the office. Thank God they don’t let them have any sharp objects.

I think they’re after my time travel Canuck Satellite Thingie.
Damn you Crewman Daniels, damn you!

Hey cplant, I think you can avoid Braga’s goons by using Comic Book Guy’s prototype of the only working phaser that was used to keep Shatner from making another ST movie.
