I Don't Believe It...

Post by Lord Poe »

I just saw an episode of "Enterprise" that I liked! I missed the first 20 minutes, but it was about the first warp 2 flight. Wasn't bad at all.

Test Flight was a good episode. Shame the one that followed it was just senseless sex.

"After running out of ideas, the Producers decide to backtrack in an attempt to recapture the old series that was done by other people. Will Enterprise have powerful conflict like NexTrek's third season? Will they build up a war like Deep Space 9's later episodes? Will they waste hours upon hours on useless spacial anomalies like Voyager?
Or will they end up accomplishing something not already done before on its predecessors? We'll have to wait and see"

Test Flight was not too bad, but it is interesting to note the above quote from firsttvdrama.com (highlighting done by me) regarding speculation where Enterprise would go. B + B tend to be predictable it seems... :wink:

But prehaps this season ender might have some promise. Maybe even the kind not seen since BoBW.

That I liked?

Look out if they got Poe anyone of us could be next! That UPN black van is not your friend!

Was it written by B&B?

If it was, then clearly they two are getting better. If not, they still stink.

And do you wnt to know why it soooo much better than the norm? because there was no tatical fighting between enemies, no stupid threat-o-the week. it was a good character building episode and they explored without finding all kinds of trouble.

It was written by Chris Black & John Shiban.

Although after watching "The Expanse" I think B&B may have improved.

I like the "build up to a war" idea -- perhaps a looming conflict with the Klingon Empire, drawing in the Vulcans, and then forcing a smoldering Cold War...

As long as they don't do the romulan war. They'll no doubt use visual communications and phase cannons in the war and further screw up the continuity.

Well when they have spoken to the romulans before they didnt use visual comunication so perhaps they plan to keep to the continuity of the romulan war. personlly i think this is one direction they should take

They're playing it really to the edge of continuity. To stupid extremes like with the Ferengi.
