6·3 days agoThroughout several episodes in the first two seasons of Enterprise, the Suliban draw Captain Archer into the Temporal Cold War. That sounds cool, but the execution of the Suilban falls flat, starting with their design. They look like they’re covered in cheap green foam, giving them an unsettling texture that reads cheaper than even the aliens of the original series.
Look how they massacred my boy
At least the Suliban villain, Silik, was pretty cool. Sometimes an enemy, sometimes a friend, always throwing shade 👌
9·4 days agoI am mildly annoyed when an action scene essentially pauses so the heroes can have a small dialog scene.
I always find myself wondering: isn’t that bad guy, hull breach, detonation timer etc still there?

think of me as a man. I’ve been one several times.
We could do this all day, I just reached for this example because of my recent run Gowron of episodes 🖖
Oh, this definitely includes Renegades 👌
If you do that you miss much of the best Trek villains:
Kai Wynn and Gul Dukat
They are part of reason folks are advising you to hang in there.
But ultimately just enjoy it and skip any episode that is boring you; if you make it halfway you’ll probably want to watch the few relevant ones you skipped.
p.s. Buckle up 🖖
Enterprise all the way.
It starts strong with lots human/vulcan conflict and then eases into 2 seasons of TNG-style adventures.
Season 3 is an imperfect masterpiece that ultimately delivers some incredible episodes. This is where Enterprise comes into its own.
Season 4 is more like a collection of 3-parters that sees the crew touch on all the lore they missed in the first 3 seasons. Satisfying but a different vibe.
Highlights include:
- Captain Archer feuding with Duras
- Dr Phlox improving every episode he appears
- Lt Reed vs Major Hayes
- Grapplers!
Low points include:
- Decontamination
- Archer/Tpol tension
- Cogenitor episode
- The finale

Came here to mention La Sirena from Picard.
Hologram bridge crew with fully hologram passenger quarters, the introverts starship par excellence 👌
Quick someone animate it
for the masses,for the children, for me!
It’s a matter of opinion of course, but to me Picard 1/2 suffers the same malady as S31: “all we need is a big star to sell our franchise”
Season 3 felt to me like the owners of the franchise desperately trying to salvage the final season from Patrick Stewart’s meddling.
As for Kirk’s stories you’re right he’s done if not already overdone, at least as a main character. Who knows how he may work as a supporting character 🤷♀️
When Monday-me tries to remember what Friday-me did
If Kirk is going to come back, it has to mean something. It has to be the show. But I was so impressed by this writer, so I said let’s talk after I’m done in Vancouver.
He had me in the first half, but thankfully this doesn’t sound like another vanity project ala Picard S1/S2 🤞

This looks like one you can make from an old washer and an old bike: https://permies.com/t/90723/Pedal-powered-washing-machine
That was an interesting watch. Glad someone is making shorts they think are fun to make, it’s refreshing.
And in future news 😉
I have no idea, but I hope so haha
Buffertime episode was the one where I became hooked.
The show consistently delivered until the very end, at least for me.
My only petty gripe is when I recently rewatched an episode: Riker comments about seeing Archer and the gang in the holodeck and now that I’ve seen ENT…I don’t want to be reminded of the finale. I told you it was petty!
5 seasons and a movie, make it so!
14·28 days agoThe schadenfreude here is delicious, alas the perils of being such a vehemently player-hostile game publisher 😂
As an Archer fan… bwahaha. He knew it was wrong, there’s too much dialog around suspending moral codes and the like.
Eg one of my fave episodes Harbinger:
