Most liked episode of season 2

Shockwave pat 2 Carbon creek, First flight, The catwalk The Communicator, The Cogenitor,Cease fire. Dead Stop, Mine field, Dead stop, Regeneration The Expanse
 
my favourites would be; regeneration, carbon creek, future tense, the catwalk and dead stop
 
I keep wondering if that space station from Dead Stop is still out there waiting for some unsuspecting travelers.
 
My favourite was Dead Stop - yes it was a bit of a reset, but at least it dealt with the consquences of Minefield a bit. It was also just a really creepy, well-done story.

'The Expanse' is a close second. It felt exciting, new and for the first time in a very long time I was on the edge of my seat waiting for Season 3 (which IMO ended up being the best season of the entire run)

'Regeneration' - again, just a really well done story. Best Borg episode in years. It felt dramatic, scary and dangerous for the crew who once again felt out of their depth. Given that the story was basically Enterprise-hater hell, I think it actually worked remarkably well.
 
I liked Regeneration for the vibe. It felt like The Thing, in many ways, yet it was a Borg story. It was a damn good one too.

I like that it also dealt with the aftermath of First Contact, in that the debris from the Borg sphere had to have gone somewhere. So we get an answer.
 
I am up to episode 18 "The Crossing" in my rewatch, so don't feel able to give a list for the whole season. Nonetheless, these are the outstanding ones so far:

Dead Stop
Cease Fire
Present Tense
The Crossing
 
Wait for it... wait for it... it's Carbon Creek, I like seeing the Vulcans become adapted to humans, and how they had a guardianship to us even in the 1950's. It's hard not to help people in need, and it's courageous for them to step up and do so. Those Vulcans were the Vulcanians I appreciated from TOS and not the obnoxious, asshole, Vulcans who have poisoned the characterizations of the race since the DS9 episodes The Maquis.

You must have missed "Amok Time" and "Journey to Babel", Vulcans were always obnoxious assholes. Enterprise pretty much nailed them.

Top episodes from season two...

"Dead Stop"
"Carbon Creek"
"Regeneration"
 
My rewatch of season 2 has ground to a halt, but I am looking forward to the action movie stylings of Regeneration. :)

Every time I watch Civilization I get a boner out of Riann. OK sorry maybe TMI.

But I like that episode and lately Silent Enemy. I just want to find out who those aliens were.

In your opinion.

I suggest you go watch the episodes of TOS that I referenced. Pay attention to the Vulcans. They are utter douchebags. Sarek refused to talk to his son for 18 years because of a career choice. T'Pring was banging Stonn behind Spock's back (and admitted she'd continue to do it if Spock won and forced her into marriage). T'Pau denigrated humans and Spock.

Vulcans: Being dicks since 1967.

This is why I can't understand how the portrayal of Vulcans in ENT was so controversial. In fact, Brannon Braga said that it was an extrapolation from TOS. Since the series went back in time, it shouldn't be surprising that they expanded on racism and other unsavory aspects.
