The Enterprise crew finally make it to Risa, wrapping up the three episode arc that started with Fallen Hero. Archer settles in to do some light reading, Trip and Reed seek to expand their horizons, Travis tackles a local cliff face, and Hoshi practices her language skills on the local population. Of course this is…
The Enterprise crew once again finds themselves caught in the middle when Archer and Trip accidentally befriend the head of a terrorist organization. The duo are forced to flee into the desert to escape a bombing run. Archer's sidekick, Trip, gets a mild case of heat stroke and flirts with the idea of slipping into…
T'Pol learns to never meet your heroes, or at least it'll feel that way at first until you discover they were actually pretty ok in the first place? So maybe T'Pol learns about first impressions? Overall we quite liked this episode despite a few story troubles. Lots of excitement and intrigue in this episode! T'Pol…
This is one of those rare Star Trek episodes that actually presents us with a non-traditional alien. A feat that knocked this episode into Chris' list of favorites. For the rest of us it felt like a very traditional Star Trek episode, not bad, but also not exactly remarkable. Memory Alpha: Link Enterprise 01x22 - Vox…
We all learn a little about ourselves and each other during this episode as Archer and Travis face their own prejudices. Also it's a mini Quantum Leap reunion as Dean Stockwell makes an appearance alongside Scott Bakula. Overall we liked this episode, even if we were beaten over the head with the message. For anyone…
What starts out as a creepy ghost story about a crashed transport ship turns into a creepy father/daughter story about recreating all of your dead friends and family and pretending everything is normal for 20 years. The best thing about this episode is that it brings back Rene Auber.. Uh.. Ober.. Uhh.. Auborjin.. Auberjonois.…
Enterprise brings us the Ferengi for their first chronological appearance in the Star Trek universe until we see them again in The Next Generation, about 200 years later. Or does the Deep Space Nine episode Little Green Men count? Did that happen yet, or has it yet to have happened? Ugh. Time travel. This is…
Ever set out to go hunting but find love instead? The Enterprise stumbles upon a rogue planet (saying the name of the episode should be a trope at this point). Archer and Co. crash the hunting party of a few Eskan. Turns out whatever it is these fellas are hunting happens to be capable of…
Don't be like this Tolaris fellow.. This episode holds a special place as the lowest rated among us so far! I honestly did not see that coming.. Has there ever been such an over the top slimey Vulcan (or character) as this Tolaris fellow? Next to the seemingly harmless Kov/Commander Trip storyline this episode has…
Enterprise has a surprising number of strong episodes in their first season and I think most would say this should be counted among them. Trip and Reed face certain death, each dealing with it the only way they know how--Fightin' and drinkin'. Memory Alpha: Link Enterprise 01x016 - Shuttlepod One Directed by David Livingston Written by Rick Berman…
