Every now and then, _Voyager_ had a good episode. I watched (willen watchen have seen on)\* _Blink Of An Eye_ last night. The skyship worshipper quatum time bubble thingy. It was pretty good. You see? We tend to forget that even a subpar Trek series can have episodes of worth. I fear that’s what will become of _Enterprise_. Unless they _Firefly_ it up a bit. Come to think of it, didn’t someone post aboot a _Firefly_ DVD being avail? Who was it? Where are they? I want \*past/future im/un/notso-perfect subjugation needed for time travel Dopers ---

The Firefly DVD should turn up by the end of the year…unless you want to fast forward yourself and get it. Get me one too, while yer at it. Pleez. 🙂 Well, ENT has had some good eps. Just not as many as there should have been, especially in the 2nd season. I don’t need no stinkin’ 'frijeraters. Umm…why, do you have one you’d like to unload? ---

-Yeah, I want _Dawn_ even though when **NCB** posted its synopsis, I thought it was a joke. What’s next, interstellar surfing with Reed and Archer? Oh, right. By the way… _Blink of an Eye_ **was** a good episode. I watched every Voyager episode up until about the fifth season. I’m one hardcore mofo. ---

“Dawn” is mostly _Enemy Mine_, but what the hey. I’ll tape it for ye. ---

The sequal to _Dawn_ should be called _Red Dawn_ and guest star Patrick Swayze, Charlie Sheen, and Leah thompson. Space Commies invade Earth, and the Enterprise crew is trapped in the woods with the “Space Wolverines” and must fight a guerilla war against Space Gorillas! Finally, they get to the Gorilla King, who is really King Kong, and he grabs Hoshi and climbs to the top of the Empire State Building II, which is 50 miles tall, and Archer must shoot him down with a WW1 era plane borrowed from the time traveling Red Baron! It’s destined to be a classic! ---

The Fokker DR-50 triplane had an operational cieling of around 15,000 ft. So, not a very useful Fokker for 50 mile high ape fights. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/enterprise-the-communicator-spoilers-maybe/136533.md?page=18)
