Star Trek: Enterprise -[Spoiler Talk]- Stardate:506050

[Viking Bastard]

To me, he'll always be that SNL guy that always played gay guys.

The episode was OK.

I just can't get into the Mayweather character. I mean, if he were to be killed off one week, I'd be like, "oh, well". Nothing compelling about him, IMO.

And, where was this great weapon on Mars during the Xindi attack?

Didn't get installed until Tuesday!

 

[Darth K'Trava]

maybe it can't be used against randomly mobile targets (ships can veer away?), the moon while actually moving incredibley fast is probably a lot easier to hit than a large starship.

I hope Archer simply puts a photon down on the array w/o any warning to remove Terra Prime's teeth. I repeat no warning, other wise drama will ensue ... and I want military action, quick and decisive military action even!

I doubt it. He'll probably be forced to "talk his way through" the whole thing, only to find out that brute force is what's actually needed in this situation.

 

[Darth K'Trava]

It's a pretty good episode, and also follows well in Trek's tradition of doing stories that take on contemporary issues. This episode sort of conflated several such issues at the same time.

Paxton is a nut. Colonel Green "misunderstood'? He said he was one of several misunderstood historical figures. I bet Paxton would include Hitler in that number as well. A shame he studied history, but apparently never learned from it.

"Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it."

good characters, good actors...bad episode.

 

[John Crichton]

Yeah, it was really cool to see that the ex-Sunnydale Mayor still has work. Now we know where you go when you die in the Buffyverse...

well, he was on the West Wing for an episode too.

 

[Viking Bastard]

And he's been on Alias for the last few episodes.

According to the episode, the Mars weapon was used to deflect comets, so it has no relevance to the Xindi attacks and has to be capable of hitting relatively small and fast targets. And I'm curious to know how a weapon built onto a rotating and revolving planet can hit anywhere on the system in the first place.

The Mayor Minister was pretty distracting for me too. I laughed my head off when I went back and considered the discussion he had with Archer about faith. Yeah, when she was easily defeated by the Slayer and thus helped him get blown up, I would have less reliance on Faith as well.

That whole "weapon on Mars" thing was really stupid.

Bad episode (great actors, though).
