I thought this was the worst episode of the season so far. It was good that we got a break from all those damn cliffhangers, but it wasnt as good as it could have been. I wasnt pleased.

I only caught the end of it. This was slightly reminscent of the Scotty episode on TNG. Caught in a transporter and all. You know I don't really like ENT, but I think like you said it was a good break from the cliff hangers and then running around. It setteled down and we got to see into the technology. It was crappy but not ENT crappy which is worse.

Mark, Founder...you are both right. This episode was not up to normal standards, but it did give us a break from all the cliffhangers. I am a huge ENT fan and I really thought this episode stunk badly, lets hope next weeks episode can pick it up a bit.

It did seem like it was, "lacking", somehow, although I still kinda liked it. I think if they would have showed the original accident, it would have made it a whole lot better.

We are getting another seperate episode next week. We should hope the writers give us a little closer to what we expect of them.
And anyways, Deadalus gave us a good look into a key figure in Treks history. At least we have that.

That's true, and I am sure that is always a good thing to have . Like you said Mark, lets hope this single episode coming up, the writers will give us more of what we expect from ENT.

This next one sounds a lot more interesting by the previews, spoilers, and trailers that I have seen, it should be a lot better.

Yes, that is to be sure. We watched it on the big ass screen today, it was on TV today. So long to wait! Thankfully we get downloads earlier.

I didn't think the guy playing Erickson was a particularily good actor which made it hard to watch, and did they ever explain what the problem was with his back?

I theorize that Quinn hit him, and crippled him.

Hmm, it made it seem like his back was a bit of an important point to the plot, especially because it looked sorta like how T'Pol's hand did, and the "crewman"'s face did. It was odd that they just dismissed it.

Yeah, and he kept standing up and crap. I thought that was silly.
Also:
1. There are little step ups at the beginning of every doorway. HOW DID HE GET AROUND?
2. He ran over and laid down with Quinn when he transported him back. What the hell was that?

The way they make it seem is that he cannot walk at all. but half the time he is completely able of doing things on his own. It was an odd episode. I hope tomorrow's is better

Well it can, like the Borg or Ferengi episodes. But this was pretty bad. Definetly one of the 5 worst episodes of the series.
