The show Enterprise is the last vestige of Gene Roddenberry's dream. Although he never signed off on this
one, it does bear the Star Trek name. Actually, it doesn't. Or it didn't. But, whatever.
It still has Hoshi, the human universal translator and the most useless character in any Star Trek show.
Puurrrrrrrrr!

310 Similitude
I can't think of an episode that starts better. With a dead Trip.
Nutrionic particles. That sounds familiar. Those are the particles that fuck everything up. Or maybe they were just making that up, I'm not sure.
I do have to admit, Star Trek casting did a good job getting actors to portray a younger Trip, they made sure to get ones with bad southern accents.
An interesting way to introduce somewhat contemporary ethical quandrys such as cloning tissue for spare parts. Although I was sure that they would try to use this as an excuse to get T'pol and Trip in bed together. Clearly we're going to see that in a future episode. Dammit.

309 North Star
Enterprise is going through the types of episodes that were so neat looking back on in Star Trek. I am expecting they will eventually visit the Nazi-era world soon, where there are a bunch of aliens that for some reason behave like Nazis. Or perhaps they will discover a Greek world, where everyone wears a toga and sandals.
The deputy was in the Voyager episode "The Chute." I can't remember which one he was. And I had to look that up in IMDB.

308 Twilight
An old an grey befeebled captain in a bleak future. This reminds me of that last Next Generation episode, "All good things..." It's always a good
Hey, Archer and T'pol are on Seti-Alpha 5. They don't say whether or not Khan is leading them or not.
Evil Malcolm with the goatee. In fact, I bet that's the same goatee that Spock wore. It looks just as fake. Naw, that goatee is probably long dead by now.
Interesting, irradicating parasites in the future kills them in the past. Actually this is a little like the Deep Space Nine episode where Sisco is jumping through time. I knew that having a running theme of time travel was going to mean lots of crappy time travel episodes. This one was a little intriguing though.
