Review
Ok, did I miss something in this episode, or is this
a complete re-hash of everything ever done in Trek? Ummm..check!
(Except for a Vulcan female in heat, but that's another
issue altogether.) This entire episode was just so predictable.
For me, predictable = bad. Archer get's abducted… ohh,
that's original. Once again, Archer uses his sense of morals
to appeal to the semi-moral, semi-villain character he
eventually wins over. Been there… done that.
Now on to T'Pol's Pon Far. Other than the acting, this
was just truly horrible. I guess Enterprise's ratings are
in trouble if the producers feel it necessary to keep T'Pol
in her underwear most of the episode. What's next, have
her complete nude but kind of blur it out to stay on the
network? With Canamar earlier in the season, why in the
world did they make this episode?
At least in previous re-hash Enterprise episodes, there
was something unique about the story. I simply can't find
that here. This is my least favorite episode so far in
Enterprise.
The Good: (This is going to be a short
list) - The Acting. Blalock is actually improving with
her performance. - The Special Effects in this episode
were done quite well. A big plus.
The Bad: - Archer being abducted… again!?!?
- T'Pol's Pon Far: I'm just not happy that Vulcan females
now go through Pon Far. At least the rest of the crew doesn't
know about the Pon Far. Just that she went nuts on some
spores. (Hey, they already did that!) - The Klingons: I
suppose they resemble the TOS Klingons in being dishonorable,
but to this point in the series, they have been shown as
honorable warriors. - The whole Archer plot. - The whole
T'Pol plot. - The whole plot period.
