Enterprise: Twilight spoilers

i have this recorded, but won’t get a chance to see it until this weekend, so i skipped all the posts above until then. and i now own a home!!!

NoClueBoy, stop flinging your stuff around. You could put a mote in my eye.

Tars Tarkas, congratulations!

You bought a home just so you could watch Enterprise?
Wow, that’s dedication!
(Although, to be honest, I kinda did the same thing in 1995, when I bought a house so I could get DirecTV so that I could watch Mystery Science Theater 3000.)

You bought a house so ou could watch Mystery Science Theater 3000? That’s, ah, that’s remarkable.
What do you think we should do about it?

Congrats to Land Baron Tars! (Somehow, that puts me in mind of Lord Garth of Izar.)

I hasten to mention that:

(A) I was looking to buy a house anyway, as one of those long-term investment thingies;

(B) The purchase happened at the one and only time that Comedy Central was going back and showing some 1st season episodes; and

© That house has since been sold, and I now have an even bigger house with DirecTV in it.

I got the tape just a few minutes ago, viva.

And the Talosian. :smiley:

Cool…You got “Twilight.” But…but…but…what about “The Shipment”? What has the USPS done with it?? I should just do priority every time and maybe that way every tape will get to you as it should.

Sheesh!

No “Shipment” yet. (Punny)

Very cool episode, by the way. I really enjoyed it except for just a few nitpicky things. The first being that after twelve years, Travis is the only senior officer not to die when these guys have been constantly on the run? That stretches the already strained credibility.

The second thing I hated was that after more than a decade, Hoshi’s only a freakin’ Lieutenant?! She’s suffering from Kim syndrome or something.

And the third is the Wink, Wink moment at the end that I knew would happen when Archer told T’Pol she’d make a good nurse. AUGH, AUGH, AUGH. I HATE WHEN THEY DO THAT!

To balance the kvetching out: I liked the Yrridian. And the name of the other ship, the Intrepid. Those are two continuity touches I don’t think anyone else mentioned. Inidentally, I think that the ship in this week’s episode made the fourth one to bear the name.

Hoshi was pretty.

Well…I will have to retape the rerun of the “Shipment” and Ship it again in January.

Aaarrggh!!

Keeping in mind that Nielsens are notoriously inaccurate…
Our little Enterprise Project seems to be working. :slight_smile:

That reminds me, I gotta check on Jake and see if it has indeed been renewed.

Here it is: Jake 2.0 renewed for remainder of season.

:smiley:

Well, since UPN President Dawn Ostroff says they are keeping it based on its creative success and not based on its very low ratings…It seems clear that ratings are not the only factor in a show’s survival.

Gonna email her to thank her for the decision and mention our other show too.

I hope Jake will be around for a second season too.

Upon further reflection, I still didn’t get that old Reset Button feeling from this ep.

That’s all. Saddle up (!) for next week!

Swank. I’m really getting into that show and I would had to’ve gone Xindi on the UPN execs if they had cancelled it.

I was talking to my brother about the episode this weekend and a though occurred: the first treatment of the chrono-beasties should have been the last–otherwise it isn’t internally consistent.

Consider three chrono-beasties: A, B, and C. They go to treat C and it disappears from the present and the past. It alters the timeline so that there only ever was chrono-beastie A & B. So in that timeline they treat beastie B. But that means that there only was beastie A. Which of course they treat in the first (and only) treatment. Hence, no chrono-beasties once they begin–the first treatment is the last, etc.

The chronobeasties move about so they only whacked ones in a particular area over time.

It may mean nothing to you, but …

praise for Twilight

What dreck.
It sucked.
I got vision and the rest of the world wears bifocals given to them by Dr. McCoy.

Anyone else find it oddly coincidental that all the episodes that are considered among each series’ (TOS’ “City on the Edge of Forever”, TNG’s “Yesterday’s Enterprise”, DS9’s “The Visitor”, VOY’s “Year of Hell”, and ENT’s “Twilight”) best are time travel pieces and/or involve a reset button?

What about the STNG episode where they find Data’s head in San Francisco? I disremember the end.

In COTEOF they remember what happened. That isn’t the Rest Button device.
