At least here in OKC, Enterprise StormFront part 2 is on. Let's hope It's everything we want to get rid of the Time Travel stuff.

Your average enterprise crewman can't even set the clock on the ships VCR. Donno if I want to trust them with too much time travel crap.

And Coto flipped the Switch. anyone notice the other AkiraPrise towards the end in the Upper Left hand Corner?

That was cool as hell, and may have given a hint to what Happened to the timeline , since It was in Development after the Xindi attacked.

With luck the NX-01 will be treated as an approaching alien vessel of unknown design and intent.  Then maybe the series can revert to the old  pre Berman and Braga timeline.

LOL, that would be cool, Unfortunatly, I believe that the Next episode will deal with either Brent Spinners grand Pappy doing Genitc research on T'pol who supposed to Betrothed to Surak or something like that. I can't keep the Future episodes Straight.

Was that Bobby in the shower?

With the reset, how much just went away?  All of last season?

When Silick went all limp and flowed through the grate all I could think of was Eugene Toomes.

Interesting episode though.

From the preview, next week is T'Pol getting married or something.  The week after is Brent Spiner.

I'll be honest, I did in fact like the episodes so far. I think this season will be the best yet, But I can't help Having a few jokes, at the Fans expense, esp. since I am one.

I can at least dream  that Berman and Braga will lose their arrogance and become Trek fans.  Don't burst my bubble until next week at least.

Actually Nemesis, One of them are Gone, and from what I gather, Coto is running the show, and so far, I love his Ideas.

I haven't actually followed the behind the scenes stuff.  The last I heard was that when the 4th season was in doubt B&B indicated that they were not going to be involved and then as soon as it was confirmed they wandered back into the middle of things.  Obviously behind the times.

When will the studios understand popular series like Trek and have the guiding lights be fans?   Not to mention that SCIENCE Fiction needs Science not technobable?

I have alot of faith in Manny Coto, he's shown himself to be one of the Best writters IMHO.

as to the Science part, I'd love to see that also, although, I think shows like Trek and Starwars, will contine to be a Space Opera.

That is one of the things I like about Stargate.  When they ask Sam to explain she clearly states (most of the time) when she is departing from what Earth science knows and when her speculating  about unknown science begins.

O'Neil : What's happening Carter?
Carter : I don't know sir.  This should be impossible.

(Not an actual quote but it shows the style).

I actually like Space Opera.  I dislike when the creators don't know  that they are doing Space Opera.  I wish that they would reprint the Lensmen series.  My copies are just about defunct (careful or I will get on an anti copyright rant ;) ).

Speaking of the late Janet Frasier from SG1.  My wife is heavily into SG1 fanfic.  The other day she was telling me of a fic she read where Janet was in love with Daniel and refused to marry him because she didn't want to change her last name.

If I were Daniel in that circumstance I'd have changed my  last name.  (Horrible weakness for redheads.).

Too late!



Good episode by the way, especially since it appears that the time war really is over.

However, where did all those ships come from?  In "our" timeline, Enterprise was only gone for a few seconds.  Why in the world couldn't the earth have gotten some of those ships up when the Xindi weapon was bearing down on it?  (I always thought it was weird that the Earth is supposed to have several ships, and they'd been waiting for the Xindi weapon for months, but space was empty when the weapon got there.)
