"Persis" is a tip of the hat to Persis Khambatta who played "Ilia" in TMP.

Data/Eugenics | Report this post to moderator

Interesting to bring Data's ancestor and the Eugenics war together.

Datas father was Noonien Soong, and Khan's name is "Khan Noonian Singh".

Interesting Coincidence.

Plenty of Twenty | Report this post to moderator

Once again, ENT's casting people are loooking for guest actors who are in their twenties - or even in their *early* twenties. So what, some might ask. After all these actors are going to portray superfit enhanced supersoldiers. And don't all of us know the core audience UPN is targeting with ENT?

Those justifications notwithstanding, personally I am more and more annoyed at that twenty-something practice. Yeah, a lot of TST's are good-looking. But what about characters not only shining superficially? What about serious or wise or strict or compassionate characters believably played by aged actors and actresses?

Giving the ridiculousness of manning the fleet's best ship with a (bridge) crew whose age averages between twenty and thirty, it would be very pleasant if at least a good deal of guest actors were in their forties or fifties. I mean, to quote The Simpsons, even those people are only "ugly" in terms of "TV ugly"...

Firstly I hate enterprise with a passion. I tried to like it but it just never worked for me. Listless story lines and wooden acting killed it for me early on.

Also the thought of using cast members from TOS or any other Trek series sounds like a desperation to me and especially Spiner.

Having got all that off my chest, this doesn't sound as horrendous as I thought it would. This could even turn out ok if done correctly.

It's definately peaked my interest for the first time since Broken Bow.

I might even tune in for the first time in almost 4 years.

Has Coto single handedly saved the Star Trek franchise? Is season 4 of Enterprise going to rival the best seasons of Trek?

I hope so, man do I hope so.

Trek has never really explored the "Eugenics"-era beyond Khan, so it will be nice to see what type of repracussions will be sitting behind.

Also too, this is in a way a return to TOS. We get to see more and more situations with the Klingons quickly go to hell in a handbasket due to the fact that both sides (in a way) are hot heads.

Anyways, this should be interesting...
