TetsuoShima Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Yeah, that episode (terran empire) was sooo cool. I loved that ep. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenebrae Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 The Augment episodes and the Mirror Universe ones were the only thing that stopped Enterprise being a total waste of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subspatial Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 They should've made a whole series of Mirror universe episodes.. ....the Terran stuff was great. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest c4evap Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 They should've made a whole series of Mirror universe episodes.. ....the Terran stuff was great. :) Oh. I soooooooo agree with that. I suggested that before on another board and was poo-pooed. "It's not Star Trek if it's a mirror-universe series they said. Star Trek is good...not evil". 'Oh bl*w me I said"! I think that would have been a better choice for the ENT series (IMHO). c4 :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenebrae Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 I think there would be a lot of mileage in evil star trek. If Enterprise had been evil Enterprise - that would have been sweet! That said, I feel that the DS9 mirror universe stuff wasn't actually all that great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wazer Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 I don't know about a whole series of mirror universe but it would have been good if a whole series had a similar adversary. The Xindi in series 3 were good but most of the time the enterprise were just looking for them. A whole series where an enemy ship attacks the main crew and they fend them off whilst trying to go about their business would be good. Kinda like a bully at school that keeps annoying you, and hurting you, until you finally get rid of them. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theaveng Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 1.THEY EXPLAINED WHY THE KLINGONS DON'T HAVE THE HEAD RIDGES IN THE ORIGIONAL!!!!!!!!!!!! omfg 2. HMM ALL I can THINK OF IS THE OPENING FOR THE DARK UNIVERSE!!!!!!!OMG!!!! Yeah Enterprise's cancelation sucks. They had finally fixed the flaws and were producing good stories in season 4, but then pulled the plug. DUMB. Same thing happened with Doctor Who. They killed the show when it was good. troy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GorunNova Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 A lot of good comes from taking a close glance at evil... of course, they could do a series about the good elements trying to keep it together in a harsh, evil universe... they can then cover the mirror universe, AND stick to the good side! :D Edit: ... they may even be able to snag back some baddies as GOOD characters...

bbbb Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 A whole season of evil ENT. Hmmm, a whole series of evil ENT? Wow, that would be cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wazer Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 One other thing I did liek the title sequence for the Terran Empire Episodes and equivalent version for the normal crew would have been good. I had heard a couple of times that they were planning to change it but it never happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elderbear Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 For once I agreed with the Emmy for the best dramatic episode - although I thought a number of Enterprise arcs should have been considered, that particular House episode was amazing. I know it's not SF, but if enough people are interested, I'll post both the Emmy winning episode & the premeire episode of House. If you've never watched the show (which generally isn't that great - and for the first dozen episodes basically didn't do anything interesting) the Emmy winning episode doesn't hit as hard as it does if you're familiar with the premise. The non-linear storytelling, the ability to switch realities and confront you with truths that explain character motivation were phenomenal. Why can't more SF shows do the same?

Guest c4evap Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 I even came up with a name for it: DARK TREK cool huh? c4 B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
queenhank Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 I, for one, would love it if you put up the first ep. of House, Elderbear. I never did manage to catch it on the TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theaveng Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 If Enterprise had stayed on the air: - We would have seen more background history of various aliens (like the Vulcan trilogy) - More connections to the original series - And the show-runner Manny Coto was planning to do another trilogy in the Dark Universe! BTW if you liked those episodes, here are some more you should check out: - The Original Trek - Kirk crosses over - Deep Space Nine - there was one dark universe episode for every season (3 to 7) - BOOKS: There's a TNG novel where Picard crosses-over... probably the best story to date! troy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dabrood Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 [...] This is not entirely right: - In "mirror mirror" (TOS 2x4) (I assume you are referring to this one) Kirk, McCoy, Uhura and Scotty do cross over - In season two of DS9 is also a mirror episode, namely "crossover" (2x23), on the other hand there is no such episode in season five B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elderbear Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 I'll see if I can dig up House - I've got it here somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
queenhank Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 There were also the DS9 Episodes Through the Looking Glass (3x19), Shattered Mirror (4x20), and The Emporer's New Cloak (7x12). I can't remember any more, although it seems like I missed one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steveo Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 The DS9 alternate universe episodes were poor at best, and always felt too much like a fall back for writers with no new story lines. The alternate (evil) Enterprise episodes, on the other hand, were very good. Who can't fail to like seeing the crew in TOS uniforms? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dabrood Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 I agree. I've seen only one of those DS9-Eps but it was pretty boring and in terms of story and characters not much different from the regular ones with a few (unexciting) twists here and there.
