"Don't worry, I won't hurt you."

Okay, anyone that has heard or seen the latest Enterprise commercial will recognize this as the tagline T'pol uses when she is about to rape someone when suffering from Pon'Far.
Putting aside the sheer stupidity of the plot device (Come on, can't Vulcans FUCKING COUNT and know when they're in danger of going into Pon'Far???)
Let's examine another horrible mutilation of Trek canon. It is clearly established that MALES suffer from Pon Far, mentioned in the FUCKING EPISODE THAT ESTABLISHED PON FAR. Reiterated several times including the movies (ST:III) B&B have raped continuity as I'm sure T'Pol will do to some fortunate Boobyprise crew member.

Not to mention T'Pol openly talks about Pon'Far. Spock was SO uncomfortable and embarrased with Pon'Far he HIJACKED THE ENTERPRISE.
And so Star Trek continuity crumbles...

If Enterprise is non canon, then Voyager better not be canon either! Not after what they did to the Borg.

Yeah, Trek is going further downhill than any of us would have ever thought possible.

I think they should really go for broke and have T'Pol be interested in Hoshi.
Id tune in for that, even if it is an obvious pander to male hormones.

Even I , who's hate for Enterprise is damn near a living thing, would tune in to see T'Pol and Hoshi get freaky

If I want porn, I won't be watching science fiction. If I want to experience the level of enjoyment I get during Enterprise, I'll poke out my eyeballs and cut my balls off with a rusty knife.

IIRC didn't they say that only male vulcans can get the Pon'Far in an earlier episope of Enterprise?
Hopefully they didn't try to fix it with out having to write a unique script(unlike the Find: Tuvok/Spock/Etc. Change to:T'Pol) by just giving T'Pol a weiner.(Children, the word of the day is: Hermaphrodite!)

The show has been non-canon since the day the first pictures of the Akiraprise appeared.

Not to mention Tuvok, when he got it. He regarded it as a extremely taboo subject.

Yeah well T'Pol considers it as such in the episode (she even says "we don't discuss it with others"), what episode was it where she was talking about Pon Far before (I remember it happening but not the episode), I suspect that episode was written by B&B but would like to confirm it.

Couldn't T'Pol be a male Vulcan who went through a gender-change operation, and something went wrong??

I'm telling you, the only way to redeem Enterprise is to put it on the Spice Channel and eliminate the entire crew except for T'Pol and Hoshi

You know though when a bunch of Vulcans hang out together their Pon Far tends to happen at about the same time.

So what's the chance of an NR rated Version of Phillip Jose Farmer or Robert Heinline's fiction comming down the pipe?

Jesus, I'd buy cable just to see what the fights in "A Feast Unknown" looked like translated to the screen.

The Borg were ruined in Best of Both Worlds and First Contact. Voyager just failed to fix them.
