Rick Berman: Ep 18 Has a Name, Plus Talks Mythology Installment "Harbinger" (SPOILERS)

Features

By Steve Krutzler / 09:37, 4 January 2004 / Enterprise

Producer Rick Berman talks with the STAR TREK Communicator for the magazine latest Update in issue #148. In addition to revealing that the title of ENTERPRISE's eighteenth episode of the season is "Azati Prime," Berman offers some intriguing details about the February 11th installment "Harbinger."

"'Harbinger' is an episode where we rescue a strange test subject - almost like a canary that gets taken down a mine," he tells the mag, "except this is a character that gets taken into our galaxy by the people who built the spheres to see how things are going. It is an episode where a lot of exposition is going to unfold about the upcoming [ending episodes of the season]. There are also going to be some very interesting romantic turns."

Berman says the MACO military characters will continue to be felt through additional appearances of 'Major Hayes' (Steven Culp) and "some quite attractive female MACOs."

Asked about the tragic passing of actress Kellie Waymire ('Elizabeth Cutler') last year, Berman says the staff is discussing ways to honor her.

"We had hoped that Kellie would come back as well. We have discussed some way of honoring her and we'll be looking into that in the next few weeks."

Check out the full interview in the latest issue of the STAR TREK Communicator. Thanks to Matthew Rojanakiathavorn for the clips.

"some quite attractive female MACOs."

Now THAT'S what I'm talkin' about! Did anybody else noticed that ENTERPRISE picked up more viewers and steam when they started showing T'Pol in varied catsuits? It wouldn't surprise me if we saw a whole ARMY of catsuits! Now that'll jerk up the ratings, baby! Long live ENTERPRISE! Rick is the man!

They have said this over and over already now. Yet we haven't seen or heard anything more on this Xindi story line. They keep saying we are going see more and have more of the story unfold which we have NOT seen. I think it is very clear that they are stalling. They have NO idea how to end this arc and are just dragging it out. The season is half over and they are making the 18th epsiode and still we have NOTHING of substance with this stupid Xindi. Lets GET to the point!

Finish up the XINDI arc already...while we are still young!

Who was that woman? | Report this post to moderator

I remember way the heck back in the summer they announced some attractive woman had been cast as a MACO. I forget her name, but I'm pretty sure we've yet to see her in an ep. Maybe she's the one Berman's talking about.

I was just thinking about Cutler yesterday and how nothing more had been said?! Do we even know what she died from?

"some quite attractive female MACOs."

Berman just DOES NOT have a clue!!!

Nemesis had all the right buttons there waiting to be pressed, but like Data on a Reman keypad Paramount seem to have pushed the wrong ones. :/

From Steve's quotes:

"'Harbinger' is an episode where we rescue a strange test subject - almost like a canary that gets taken down a mine," he tells the mag, "except this is a character that gets taken into our galaxy by the people who built the spheres to see how things are going. It is an episode where a lot of exposition is going to unfold about the upcoming [ending episodes of the season]. There are also going to be some very interesting romantic turns."

So the Spheres could supposedly/possibly/maybe built by an extra-galactic species? That's an interesting turn of events.

Let the Kelvan (TOS "By Any Other Name") conspiracy stories begin!

Outer Space. The last frontier.
These are the trips of the Star Trek Enterprise.

Calls for us to seek out new life and new civilizations.
To boldly fly where no man has gone in space.
