no, for this season I mean
GhostOfAMemory - thx it got the desired affect, surely you have seen Predator - the film?
*** SPOILERS AHEAD Review ***
Anyway I was actually not expecting much from this ep but man I was suprised it was a solid episode (damn season 3 is good), Gotta love all the expanse effects and anomalies being put into to good use, I always enjoy seeing more of the strange distortions it can create and how it effects ships and stuff, also this ep is strongly pushing forward the season arc to good effect nice to see the spheres come back into play, with that and a good ending gotta chalk this score up as .....
Overall: 8.4/10
The Roll continues

I guess I was wrong, I figured we wouldn't see the spheres again. The effects of this episode were good I liked the part when archers playing with his polo ball, and when the shuttle bounces around. Other than that I thought the story with the whole telepathy thing was kinda weak.

The new effects for season three are an improvement.
As for this episode, I give it a 4/10. The Xindi arch continues, but the telepath/exile and Hoshi thing was boring, if not pointless (atm).

Decent ep, Hoshi in skimpy clothes is really nice to look at. The ending segment with the Xindi and the information was the best part of the show, other than Hoshi on a bed.

I don't like Hoshi too much, not very much character development. She's kinda boring.

Nope, haven't seen it.
I think the whole thing with more info in the xindi rocks, but that whole hoshi-alien situation was weak. I mean, it would have been cool if they had had to fight to get her back, but she was just like "I'll break ur object!" and he was like "No! Ok, fine, u can go!" how pathetic? And archer and trip got off the sphere way too easily, they should have been in some kind of danger and the enterprise should have had to rescue them, and then we'd be worried because hoshi was in danger and so were the captain and trip, and are they gunna save archer and trip in time to get to hoshi kind of thing, yano? I mean, that whole thing with the shuttle floating away and the ball getting stuck in the wall rocked, but other than that...

It was a good episode which expanded the xindi storyline quite well. The thing I did not like about this episode though, when they set down on the sphere to conduct repairs and then the shuttle took off, how it came back down again. It just looked wrong how it bounced around as if it weighed 50kg.

after all they were in space. BUT the sphere had gravatity of its on self and when they took out the engin or whatever it was it fell back down to the sphere, it may have looked 50k or whatever becasue the Gravity of the sphere may be differnt than that of the earth so in return it would make it look more heavy. if u understand what im saying i answered your comment.

I feel sorry for the alien in my opinion he was lonely and wanted some company

That's probably coz of the lighter gravity in proprtion to earth thing... I thot that rocked. very funny, a shuttle floating away and then bouncing around like a rubber ball
