ENT be divisive like that. Personally I rank S3 as the best of ENT and first 2 seasons is them trying to “just do what worked before” but not really succeeding.

I think what I dislike the most about early ENT (besides decontamination) is how they seemed to just throw away all the guest stars. Quantum leap costar especially was a travesty of wasted potential.

I love that episode, it has Archer’s most boneheaded command decision of all time.

I always wonder how the guy playing Travis felt about the writers creating an alien that stereotypes all human beings as white.

I mean, they could have at least explored how the character Travis felt about it. Real missed opportunity.

Me watching twilight for the first time with my daughter and seeing this scene:

Since Picard 3 it’s canon that the transporter is a meat printer that relies on cached DNA to do shallow copies.

Hacking that cache was the big plot reveal of how the borg-changelings infiltrated starfleet.

Thanks fam, I’m gonna check it out. Love me some ENT 😎

Shamelessly stolen from imgur. I too have no honor

Wish I could remember the DS9 episode where they are cloaked and hunting convoys; someone wonders “is this honourable?” and is answered to the effect “Honour is winning, duh”

ENT is a great beneficiary of picard shitting the bed for 3 seasons 😎

Such a good episode 😎

Now just what in the hell is that doing there?

Edit: not sure you can make out the blurry captain of the Orville here getting scolded on the Enterprise

and all distros jumped into the honeypot

As a filthy casual this is the most distressing part.

I’ve observed the situation shift in just a few years from

“Winter Systemd is coming”

To

“Winter Systemd is here, it’s everywhere, and i hate it”

It’s obvious in HN because of the wide range of obscure topics (eg installing scaffolding on old British smoke stacks) that occasionally arise to the front page, all the ones on that topic are quickly flagged to oblivion.

You don’t have to be a genius to see the pattern 🤷‍♀️

Technically correct is the best kind of correct right?

How about this alternative with Burnham’s many mothers instead of Picard’s many sons

I’m gonna go with capitalism made her wicked 😎

OSYRAA: Fine. If the Chain is to unite with the Federation, you need to send the message that our culture is fundamentally valid and ethical.

VANCE: And how are we supposed to do that?

OSYRAA: By acknowledging that capitalism is already happening within the Federation.

We might think here, as perhaps Miller and his cowriters did, of a Viking army, threatening an established kingdom with devastation, transformed into that kingdom’s nominal protectors by the grant of a duchy. Rulership means negotiation, the management of a coalition, the constant reinforcement of a power base. It is never simple, and the work is never done.
