my husband David gripes about the coming series finale of Enterprise. I’ll be very sorry to see the end of this series, not only because it’ll be the first time in years that there is no Star Trek-universe series in production. I’ve really enjoyed the current season, even after wandering away in boredom after the previous one. And the last few episodes have actually been enjoyably kick-ass. The TWOP recapper Keckler thought the episode was a simplistic snooze worthy of a D and fake fangirly hyperbole, I disagreed only because they had the presence of mind to cast Peter Weller as the deliciously bad bad guy, and Eric Pierpoint in a return engagement as Reed’s black ops contact.
Talk about cross-pollinization – there you had Robocop, Buckaroo Banzai, George Francisco, and various Babylon 5 and Voyager/DS9/Next Gen characters in two convenient packages. Plus I see now that Buffy is represented in the person of the Federation flack giving a speech, too.
Yes, I’ll miss this show after all, dammit. Just when it was getting good, it’s gone.
