217 Canamar
This was a somewhat interesting episode. A Nosican (those mean-spirited aliens that stabbed Picard in TNG) plays the muscle, although I don't know why they have such a bad reputation. Trip beats one up.

I especially liked the annoying alien with the seaweed on his face. I imagine that the vast cultural differences would make most aliens as annoying as that guy. They probably would all be a bunch of Neelix's.

216 Future Tense
Future Sexual Tension is more like it. Not having sex and starfleet uniforms, sounds like fun to me.

Another time episode. I do not think I am ready for this tonight. Or ever again. It's too bad it's the background of this series.

It's interesting that when time repeated over and over again for Trip and Malcolm, it seemed to remind me of the past. A Star Trek: The Next Generation episode, in fact. Just wondering, if they could go back in time to any point to beam the ship back to the "31st century," why did they beam it away at the end of the episode and not the beginning?

There are no batteries in Enterprise, there are power modules.
There are no wrenches in Enterprise, there are micro-calipers.
There are no hispanics in Enterprise, there are aliens.

213 Dawn
Oh, a Trip-heavy episode. How exciting.

How come the alien on the planet does not speak english, but the one in the space ship does? Is the universal translator a human invention? How come no aliens have it?

Why does such a violent seeming alien species have neosporin as saliva. And why is Trip such a dumbass that he keeps attacking this dude and then letting him go?

Hmm, a nice throwback episode. This planet really does look like a soundstage, a bit like those old Star Trek episodes. Lots of crumpled paper mache.
