Huh - so maybe Firefly's solar system with all those inhabited planets wasn't so stupid after all.

I think I would have volunteered for a few extra takes!

Shadows of P'Jem
Shadows of P'Jem We open on a lovely view from Starfleet HQ onto Horseshoe Bay (that's a little bay in the big San Francisco Bay) and the Golden Gate Bridge. OK, now I'm homesick and I want some sourdough bread. But I digress… Soval is whining about P'Jem and Enterprise to Admiral Forrest. Forrest i...

Re: Status and Support
Well, I'm getting my words off my Word-A-Day calendar (Alelou was wondering where the big words were coming from in that last chapter) which is slowing things down. I need to finish beta'ing Weeble's last chapter so we'll have a bunch of new stuff in a few days.

Re: Randomness
Hmmm...as the recent author of Enterprise snark, I have to say that the first season is way too easy of a target. With such an experienced writing and production team there's no excuse for the quality of the writing. It's not the theme of the show that they're struggling with. It's basic dialog. If ...

Re: Putaro's Enterprise Rewatch Reviews & Snarkfest
Things have been awfully quiet around here lately. It's been a while, but summer's over so I'm back to watching Enterprise. Sleeping Dogs And we open with a phase pistol being loaded and locked. Hoshi is in the armory shooting at a remote while Malcolm critiques. C'mon, kids, don't you know you shou...

Re: Member pics
We used to have a black & white cat like that. She could be pretty ill-tempered at times but we loved her. My old cat (19) passed away shortly after my wife and I started living together. We were considering getting another cat but we moved and the new condo didn't allow pets. I was pretty surpr...

Re: Putaro's Enterprise Rewatch Reviews & Snarkfest
Good points Panyasan! I agree, Phlox should be looking to help sick people. Medicine is pretty much fighting against evolution, isn't it, so Phlox's stance in favor of non-interference seemed strange. If the Valakians were a primitive species it might make more sense but they have spacecraft and the...

Re: Putaro's Enterprise Rewatch Reviews & Snarkfest
Dear Doctor We open in Sickbay and Phlox is doing the morning feeding. Lots of work for the puppeteers and prop makers. Yum, blue gummy worms! Phlox is one of my favorite characters. I think Billingsley did a lot with his performance. And now Hoshi is delivering the mail. Why is Enterprise running o...

Silent Enemy
Silent Enemy Enterprise is dropping off some kind of doohickey in the middle of nowhere. It sounds like it's a subspace relay though, honestly, it doesn't make much sense to me that it would make a difference when they're right next to it since presumably Enterprise's subspace comms would be on par ...
