Watching Enterprise on Netflix, I like it.

They built a fake town and slowed the Klingons transporter by charging a toll of a dime.

And all in the same episode! :dubious:

Yeah, I wouldn’t hold up Enterprise’s treatment of that nonsensical, monstrous whim that Archer once had as a positive example.

There’s an AIDS allegory episode in season two in which a Vulcan casually kicks Archer’s ass. T’Pol doesn’t break out the strength very often that I can recall but you’ll find there’s a variety of things wrong with her…

I MUCH preferred Hoshi.

That’s Empress Sato buddy, show some respect!

Ahhhh I had forgotten the claoking being a new technology. I agree it should have been included. In fact had they been clever Archer could have been the one to delay the development of the cloaking device. The temporal war thing doesn’t bother me much, but too much time travel does get confusing. I see your point. The stories where they encountered other races were more interesting.

Well sure. Hoshi is the sweet girl next door. T’Pol is the exotic.

I really wanted to like it, but time-travel stories have problems and a season-long time-travel story arc more so. It got a little better when the Andorians showed up, and I’d’ve been happy with storylines about how Terran, Andorians, Vulcans and Tellarites cobbled together an uneasy Federation, but that whole Xindi season is a write-off and if the OP skips it entirely, he won’t have missed anything of value.

Just recently watched that one.

I didn’t get that impression. I took it that the move was so minimal, and the Klingon had such disdain for the settlers that they didn’t notice the move.

That’s the magic of All-Purpose Contingency Plan B.

I see the point. In fact it could have been a feel good story arc to have Archer and crew be key in bringing peace between Vulcans and Andorians and a few other races forming the beginning of the Federation.

Whenever the Andorian Captain said Pink Skin, I wanted Archer to hand him a copy of Hustler. Twisted I Know.

I liked it. As someone has already pointed out, the temporal war wasn’t good. It was getting better when it was canceled.
My problem with Archer was that he acted as though he had leapt into a Starship Captain and didn’t know what to do. :slight_smile:

The episode is “Marauders.” The relocation was not to foil the Klingons’ beaming, but to mislead them, after they were on the ground, about the precise location of the “capped-off deuterium well heads,” which could be ignited as a trap… which impressed the Klingons enough to dissuade them from extorting from the colony further, I guess.

Slim Pickens sure looked odd in Kilngon make up.

Only if a barbie doll is considered exotic.

You’ve never heard “that thing” about Vulcan vaginas have you?

The one about the nictating membrane, or the “neck” pinch thingie?

She’s smooth plastic? Cuz I could see that being likely.

Naw, its copper plated :slight_smile:

And back to the OP. I like the series. I don’t thinks its the bestest ever and a fair number of episodes are bad, but then again I can enjoy it.

The major problem it had was the Bergama. When Manny got in on it, it was pretty good. And individual eps during the first two season were good, funny, interesting, cool, or any combo of that.

I liked the characters. Virtually all of them. And they really had the best of any Mirror eps.

Some of his stuff was almost fanfic, though: A sandstorm on Vulcan with nictating membranes and a sehlot for example.
