Topic: About Last Night... actually tonight's... Enterprise ep

[E_Look]

No fair!  I thought Sarek and Amanda were the first!  Spock ought to go back in time and sue!

You think B&B care?  I haven't seen it yet, but I read a teaser.  I certainly hope paramount is getting ready to drop the axe on those two, and are just waiting until after sweeps as some speculate.

There is nothing in Trek canon to suggest that Sarek and Amanda were the first of their species to get it on, nor is there anything that states that Spock is the first Vulcan/Human hybrid.  Either way, I wouldn't worry; the episode made it seem that it was just a one-nighter.

[E_Look]

Do some of the Trek merchandise, like a record made back in the 'Seventies count?  I recall a vinyl record with Mark Lenard playing Sarek on it, giving an interview saying, I think, that Spock was the first and that it was a difficult gestation or something like that.  But, I was a kid then, and the memory of it could be skewed... not that I'd claim some memorabilia vinyl record to be a canon source!

[EmeraldEdge]

Even if it's not, which I don't actually remember any mention of it myself, there are countless other things they have trounced on, with this show especially.  I enjoy it, but c'mon.  A some of the stuff doesn't even add to the story it's just there and sloppy.

I liked the episode.  The last few have been pretty good.  They seemed to have lost their way mid-season, but it is getting better lately.

I liked the fact that the MACO guys could kick ass a little bit and that their commander was given more than just a few lines.

Hey, I still have a copy of that on cassette tape!

It is a recording of Roddenberry giving an "interview" with Sarek (Mark Lenard) in an attempt to shed some light on Vulcan culture and even goes into how Vulcans have sex.

LOL, is info that came directly from the "Great Bird of the Galaxy" considered canon?!?    

Edit:  Thanks to the amazing power of the internet, I found a transcript here.

Good find Hstapath. Very interesting to go through.

So I haven't seen last nights episode yet.  Heck I haven't seen last weeks either.  So I'm going off of pure speculation and inference here.  But just because they got it on, doesn't mean that they're going to produce offspring.  (Unless B&B put that in the ep as well.)  It could be that Spock was the first successfull child of such a union.

[Death_Merchant]

Who cares????

What about that MACO chick?!?  Now Gents, THAT is a real woman...  

[TheBigCheese]

What happens?

spoilers please

I could not care less about canon, I just enjoy enterprise for what it is
