Topic: Star Trek Enterprise: Zero Hour (season finale)

[Tremok]

Heh. Haven't done one of these post in a while. Figured might as well for the seaon finale.

To be honest, I haven't seen an Enterprise episode in quite a while. Let's see how this plays out.    

[Clark Kent]

I still tune in frequently hoping to hear Scott Bakula say "Oh boy."

P.S.  I like Latinas...
....And apparently Asian ladies as well...

[ActiveX]

So, age is considered intimate information to Vulcans?    

[Khalee]

Nope  looks like they are going to run it into the ground. why bother picking it up for another season if this is the best they can do.

[Captain Krenn]

seems I'm not alone in my utter disgust

W W 2?  

cheesh, can't the morons do anything except time travel crap?  

 

[Praxis]

What?  It was supposed to be on at 8 PM, but it's only 6:40 PM right now.

[Harlax]

Can you say Galactica 1980?

(Sorry if I stirred up any memories you might have been repressing there....)

No, just to some women.

[Rat_Boy]

Here's a question: how come none of the Germans gave a crap that Nosferatu is apparently an SS officer?  Or perhaps it's the Red Skull's eviler cousin, the Blue Skull.

[Gambler]

Think about it this way.  With going back into WW2 the era and continuing the time travel arc they can do the following:

1)  Save on pesky repairs to their Enterprise Set.

2)  Avoid those nasty Trekers who don't like what they're doing with the Rodenberry timeline.  See!  That NEVER EVER EVER could have happened because we're in an alternate universe!

Does that Make Archer The New Captain America?

Well, that last five or so minutes of the episode was the most ridiculous load of bullsh*t on Trek since the Warp 10 episode of Voyager...

So the weapon blows up. We now have to accept that Archer somehow is transported both several million kilometres away and several hundred years back in time. And Enterprise is also transported back to this time period. I guess that Aquatic ship travelled back in time as well, but I'm sure that the writers will be completely ignoring that little fact.

Oh, and the Nazis are teaming up with Scary Looking Aliens?. This is the Nazis - a group of people who were convinced that they had to keep the purity of their race, and that anyone who was different must be eliminated. Great choice guys.

Anyone want to take bets on what will happen in Season 4? I'm going to guess that it will take several eps for Enterprise to get back to it's own time, so the writers have plenty of time now to completely bugger things up.

After my initial post I had the same thoughts.  Talk about a load of crap.  Or what if we didn't go back in time but history changed to allow the Nazi's to have been more dominant in WWII.  So it's Today as far as Enterprise is concerned but Earth has changed.  Why would it?  Blowing up the weapon in this timeline as long as we stay in this timeline isn't going to effect the past.  Unless the time traveling bad guys had a second plan in place an implemented it at the same time the Xindi were doing there thing.

[Scott Allen Abfalter]

I can't make heads or tails out of it.

I am going on the assumption that Enterprise is not warped back in time, because of (as it was pointed out) the Xindi dropping them off.  

I am going on the assumption that Archer is in the past because the whole scene had a WWII feel to it.

My guess is that WWII is messed up because Evil Aliens are messing with the poor, too-often abused, timeline.   Somehow this messed up our history such that by Enterprise's time the Earth still had not achieved space travel and even aviation has not progressed.  Maybe the Nazi's were not defeated in the 1940's and it's 200 years later and we're still fighting?

Malcom said that things "did not look different" from the air.  Does that imply that San Francisco is built up to 22nd century levels or is it built to 1940's levels?  Or maybe he could not tell.

All and all there was not enough info to make it all fit.  One thing I can say: it really, REALLY, reeks of 3rd season TOS nonsense and instead of anxiously awaiting the next season (like I was at the end of season 2) I have a summer of waiting to see if things are going to end up as stupid as they appear.
