The Briar Patch, huh? Well, maybe we’ll let you have some Insurrection too. As a treat.
A Night In Sickbay These goddamn motherfucking assholes. Fuck this and fuck them. It takes a lot to trump episodes like Spock’s Brain, Shades of...
Dead Stop After the events of Minefield, Enterprise is still fucked. In an inspection pod that they’ve been keeping…somewhere…Archer and Trip...
I mean, it’s certainly not as bad for Toad-In-The-Hole to be a blatant stereotype as it was for Chuckles, but it is absolutely bizarre that B&B had...
Minefield Archer calls Prince Charles to the Captain’s dining room (again, this seems like an unnecessary indulgence) for a friendly breakfast, and...
Carbon Creek T’Pol has been marooned on Enterprise for a year, and to celebrate that and her breaking the previous 10-day record for a Vulcan...
Shockwave, Part II TNG’s The Best of Both Worlds was borne of a dilemma facing the show runners. Patrick Stewart’s contract renewal was up in the...
Season One The first season of a lot of Star Trek series is pretty shaky sometimes. Budgets are thin. Plots are rushed. Characters are...
Shockwave Enterprise is on the way to check out a mining colony. Trip is bewildered by the idea of a matriarchal society enough to decide that it’s...
Two Days and Two Nights Risa! Time to fuck. But this is Enterprise, so what will we be treated to instead? Innuendo that would be clever to middle...
Desert Crossing I took a break from writing Voyager reviews (among other reasons) because I was stuck on the idea of doing a musical review. I took...
What I ultimately found impressive was how much they were able to side-step it entirely and prove my statement wrong. DISCO’s set so far in the...
I’m pretty sure all my references to how Brannon Braga’s office would smell like a sock on a teenage boy’s nightstand would get me demonetized, and...
I thought I had read somewhere that Paramount had managed to lose rights to a ton of the TMP assets Foundation Imaging had produced when that company...
I seem to recall that the only substantial change in the Director’s Cut was the restoration of the scene that explains that the cadet that dies is...
[media] I’d like to point out that this show makes the Holodeck Jizz Mopper canon.
I wouldn’t have minded some fan service there. At the same time, the last thing we need is a Memory Alpha page titled “Federation Ships of the...
I can’t wait for the spirits of Tom Paris and Harry Kim to be broken like mine was: [media]
‘Member the Enterprise-E? ‘Member Voyager? ‘Member the Defiant? ‘Member runabouts?!?! ;)
VOY: Relativity put Seven in a standard uniform, and it looked better on her than any of the catsuits ever did. Meanwhile, the canonical excuse for...
Fun fact: unless I fucked up the math, Voyager could have completed their journey back to the Alpha Quadrant in just shy of a month at this rate....
I think it’s curious they went with the direction of Brent Spiner playing another Soong (the DNA of that family tree must accept no maternal...
So, as much fun as bitching about one line is, we’re ignoring the real question posed by that episode - who is Beautiful Flower (or rather, androids...
There’s a scene in Stardust City Rag where Raffi and Rios tell each other facts about Picard and Seven that the other already know. For me, it’s a...
My only major complaint with this show is that it really takes its time, which would be fine with a longer season. But with just 10 episodes, it had...
5x17: The Disease Or, as UPN marketing (seriously, this is NOT a fucking joke) decided to call it: LUST IN SPACE.
If you’re Rick Berman and you’ve decided to make a character Native American, what do you do? Reach out to some tribes? Contact university scholars?...
There was at least one episode where he indicated his admiration and respect of horses, which also showed up a bit in Generations.
Since the floor isn’t a visual effect (this isn’t a prequel Star Wars film, after all), it would have entailed basically recoloring a large number of...
Well, Enterprise was the same show that decided that Qo’noS was four days away from Earth at Warp 5.
Fallen Hero This episode starts with T’Pol asking Archer and Trip if they want two tickets to boner-town. Yes, T’Pol has decided everyone is horny...
Vox Sola Archer fucks up the first contact with the Kreetassans because Hoshi can’t get the universal translator to deal with the fact that they’re...
Detained Enterprise premiered at an interesting time in history - a half a month after 9/11. 87 of the series’ episodes were scripted after the...
Oasis I don’t know if B&B were holding actors’ residuals checks hostage or something, because this episode has another Trek alum whose talents go...
No new reviews - haven’t had a lot of time. I did catch TNG’s Symbiosis, and noticed that ENT’s Dear Doctor cribbed about half of the episode from...
From that article, it sounds like the network wanted musical acts, and B&B balked. A broken clock is correct twice a day and all, I suppose. Perhaps...
Recall that it was a thing in TNG, for a long while, that the Captain wouldn’t go on away missions. It absolutely makes logical sense - as does the...
Acquisition When you make a prequel to a show created 36 years ago, you are signing up to carry 36 years of baggage in the form of canon. Canon like...
Rogue Planet For each review, I usually take a few notes for points that I want to make sure I hit. The notes for some episodes are...more...
Fusion Oh boy. On a very special episode of Enterprise... Archer has dragged 82 other people off to go look at a nebula that was on the cover of...
