If people want something really bad, watch "A Night at Sickbay" & "Shades of Gray" back to back. "Shades of Gray" is the lesser of the two evils.

A Night In Sickbay is a pretty good cure for the disease in Shades of Gray.

'He'? 'He' may not even be the writer of that, just the copy/paster since someone showed he lifted it from a 2009 topic

Which the OP themself had already mentioned.

"I recently found a post on this forum, more like a guide that helps people like me choose which episodes to watch. I decided to repost it so more people like me can find it."

The Doctor agrees with you!

TNG Season 1 & 2 clips are far preferrable to that drek. No wonder "A Night at Sickbay" caused that audience exodus. It managed to be worse than I remembered it and I already held it in low regard. I'd rather watch an all-day marathon with the likes of "Spock's Brain", "Threshold", "The Fight", "Favorite Son", etc than that.

Actually I avoided buying the first and second seasons of Enterprise cause i could not remember which season, "A Night in Sickbay," was in.

I loved ALL the Phlox stuff in ANIS.

The Archer stuff was horribly embarrassing to watch.

Well, having been an ENT viewer back during its run (seen every episode except for TATV, and half-saw Marauders, The Seventh, thanks to how bad A Night in Sickbay was) and revisiting it recently alongside DS9 & Voyager, Seasons 1-2 on the whole can't hold a candle to DS9 or Voyager (minus certain episodes from Seasons 6-7). The acting is much more mediocre. Phlox was good (though Singularity & Vanishing Point did him no favors) but T'Pol was pretty crappy (Nimoy & Russ show how to play a Vulcan without being a mediocre actor). Archer, the acting was fine but his character was hard to respect. Reed was much more of a nasty jerk than I remembered. Mayweather might've been better if he had been given more lines (seems like he had more skill than Hoshi's actress). Or maybe it was just the direction that was the problem. Regardless, some whole episodes make Garrett Wang & Robert Beltran seem like Patrick Stewart & Avery Brooks in terms of acting. I haven't yet revisited the Xindi arc.

I originally quit Enterprise near the start of season 3. Finally watching season 3 made me increase my Netflix rating of Enterprise from 1 star to 2 stars.

Looking forward to season 4. If I ever watch Enterprise again, I will start from the start of season 3. Can't remember a single episode I thought was more than 'okay' the first two seasons.

Actually just finished watching the Xindi arc, I loved it! Makes the 4th season seem average.

I hope the OP is joking about following the guide. Counterpoint, Living Witness, The Voyager Conspiracy, In the Flesh, Bride of Chaotica, One, The Omega Directive, Shattered, Q2.

So many good episodes that get the shaft in this guide, barely accurate. He got all the bad episodes but took a ton of good ones with him..

[teacake]

Why would anyone follow a guide, just watch the whole thing and make your own mind up. I've never understood this rush to see what varying reviewers say.

Agreed.

Way to Eden, Spock's Brain, Code of Honor, and Shades of Gray need to be watched once just so you can say you watched them all. Just never rewatch those episodes ever again if you hate them at much!

[teacake]

I freaking love The Way to Eden.
