The exciting news here is that Linda Park has been confirmed with 2026 being the 25th anniversary. Scott Bakula said at the convention back in August he would return but has not officially been confirmed yet. No word if Jolene Blalock will make a appearance.
Neat.
I’ve been listening to the podcast Greatest Gen, where they’ve been doing a watch-through of Enterprise, and it’s fun to listen to. It sounds like a better show than the reputation gives it, but also really unbalanced in terms of cast attention.
Is that universal on Star Trek? I feel like Data was the show mostly centered on Picard, Ricker, or Data, and then Troi and Geordi got to be in it through being associated to Riker and Data, and then Worf was almost always in the background. From the watch through on Greatest Gen, it seems like Trip Tucker was one of the three main characters, Phlox was a constant presence even if rarely the main character, and then Mayweather and Hoshi they joke are lucky if they get a line, and a few times per season they actually enter into the plot of an episode at all.
I think the biggest issue with ENT is probably the sexualization of T’Pol, the culmination of a nasty habit in Berman Trek.
I could tune out 7’s catsuit because she was otherwise well-written and the good plotlines outnumbered the bad, but it feels like at least 75% of all T’Pol stories were of the horny Berman type, to the detriment of her character.
it seems like Trip Tucker was one of the three main characters, Phlox was a constant presence even if rarely the main character, and then Mayweather and Hoshi got like one episode a season in which they were even involved.
Nailed it I’m afraid.
One the plus side, all episodes with Phlox are better for having him, except when he’s clearly pushing the awkward romance plots along.
The real tragedy is Travis and Hoshi; at least they finally get to shine (a little) on the mirror universe episode 😎
Dominic Keating has resting “heavily depressed dude trying to pretend he’s not heavily depressed” face.
It’s okay to use the word “British”, it’s not a slur or anything
I’m Aussie, we call them cunts here.
You call everything cunts
Fuck off cunt, no we don’t!
That hardly helps y’all use the word like a space bar
I mean it looks like they didn’t promote him, he’s older and it’s still lieutenant, I’d be pissed too lol
Lol the original Harry kim, but like even in the show, I legit thought his character being secretly depressed but trying to hide it was a part of his characters lore.
He had knowledge of the final episode
