Am I the only one that likes the nazi time travel episode

There were no Nazi episodes in TNG or DS9.

These 'Am I the only one' thread titles are kind of silly IMO. No you're not. I don't think any episode has a 100% hate rate from the fan base (even Threshold)

Better title would be more like 'Thoughts on *episode name*" or something.
Cardassians are the ultimate Space Nazis.

Wait, what? Someone liked "Threshold"? :ack:

But seriously, I have found something to like in every episode of ENT. Even when the plot stinks, there are wonderful little character moments or directing touches or something.

I liked that John Fleck as Silik got a lot of facetime in his last episode - with his real face, no Suliban makeup. And there was the moment when Trip discovered Archer wasn't dead. And the spaceship dogfight was cool.

You sayyyyyy I'm crazy
'Cause I think "A Night in Sickbay" is fun
But I started this thread to establish -
And to know, I'm not the only one

:p
 
Did anyone know that "A Night in Sickbay" was nominated for a Hugo Award?
Another example that one fan's dreck is another fan's treasure. I'm one of the happy few who enjoyed it, perhaps because I have also been strung out and exhausted worrying over a sick pet, so I totally understood Archer. Plus the goofy comic relief stuff worked for me.

Maybe if ENT had gotten to Season 5 or 6 of a guaranteed 7-year run, when shows can comfortably experiment, ANiS might have fit better there. Right before the "Archer Sings!" episode, or the one that takes place entirely during Movie Night.
 
So the beginning of season 4-the whole Nazi time travel two parter received criticism.

I actually enjoyed it? Did anyone else?

+1 here I liked it for what it was worth.

Seeing the Enterprise flying over the city in the 40s was cool. I loved that bit and them dogfighting with WW II planes I mean it was no contest.
 
I liked Stormfront I re-watched it again recently. It's been along time since I watched it I liked Archer and the gangsters fighting against the Space Nazis .Silik actually helped the Enterprise crew.
 
I hate every Nazis in Space episode tbh. :( It's so annoying that they keep doing this.

The only time Nazis in Space were hilarious was Iron Sky.

I LOVE that movie.

Have you seen the trailers for the sequel. Hitler riding a dinosaur..... I mean what more could you want?

Big deal, so was The Omega Glory. And at least it wasn't a stupid episode that strained credulity like The Omega Glory, but a nice little episode about cultural misunderstanding and the love of the main character for his pet dog. Unfortunately, people hate that but are willing to tolerate shit like The Omega Glory and the even shittier The Way To Eden.

For anyone unfamiliar, the Hugo (science fiction) awards only have one category(Best Dramatic Presentation) That Star Trek can win in. The other categories are:

Best-
-Novel
-Novella
-Novelette
-Short Story
-Professional Magazine
-Professional Editor(like a magazine editor)
-Professional Artist
-Fanzine
-Fan Writer
-Fan Artist
(There are sometimes others)

They've added more categories since the 60's. For instance, Best Dramatic Presentation used to include any TV episode, motion picture, or short film. They're now divided as "short form" and "long form." They've also added podcasts, graphic novels, et al.

In 1966, there was no winner of Best Dramatic Presentation due to insufficient nominations.

In 1967, 3 of the 5 nominations were Star Trek. One of the others was Fahrenheit 451, and I don't remember the last. The Menagerie won. (As mentioned Above)

In 1968, ALL FIVE nominations were Star Trek. and 2 were awarded. Trouble with Tribbles, and City on the Edge of Forever(As Above). A third Hugo Award went to Gene Roddenberry!

In 1969, there were no Trek contenders, but Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins won a Hugo Award for "Best Moon Landing Ever"
