New Short Trek: The Trouble With Edward

Yup. If you can get a hold of the DVDs for Home Movies, he does commentaries, and that's how he talks. In fact, if you watch Home Movies and Dr. Katz, his characters both talk like Archer.
ETA: Here's a sampling of Coach McGuirk from home movies.

I'm guessing Edward cheated.
Nope, it's held by WMG (Warner Music Group) which as far as I can tell isn't a part of CBS or Viacom ... yet.
I get the impression that he's the kind of guy who will be a Lieutenant for the rest of his life. Sadly, Starfleet doesn't seem to have a "promote or out" policy like the US military.
Yeah, they just keep passing him around from ship to ship till he self-implodes.

Which almost happened with Barclay in "Hollow Pursuits". He got transferred from one ship to the Enterprise (almost definitely not the first time something like that probably happened with him) and then Riker and Geordi wanted to transfer him again until Picard said no.
On the subject of Barclay...
Picard: "Captain Gleason spoke very highly of him."
Riker: "In retrospect, I wonder if Captain Gleason wasn't buttering our bread a little."

That actually is apparently what they did to Barclay. They gave him glowing reports and moved him along.
Ha! Ninjaed.
But I do think that Edward broke like 90 different Federation laws in the course of a week.
I kept waiting for someone to point out, "You realize genetic engineering is illegal, right?"
I would imagine that the Federation would have an agency equivalent to the NTSB, which would investigate the wreck. The captain's testimony would be one piece of the investigation.
As much as she seems like a great gal, I think as a Captain it would have been her responsibility to blow the ship up, burn it when it hit the ground, beam the tribbles into space, and so on. There's like 60 different ways that she failed in a biohazard containment.
I'm just saying don't put her in charge of the T-virus.
Barclay's problem was that he was an Introverted Genius.
Edwards problem is that he was a pompous ass with just enough smarts in his particular field to get by.
Not really comparable in my book.
I'm sure he and science officer Connolly would have probably got along famously.

Technically very true.
In this hypothetical Pike series, I see a follow up episode where he now controls the Tribbles via telepathy and rules the planet as the Tribble King.
You can be both. I worked in academia.
That's very true, but these two characters are as different as night and day.
Technically very true.
Or they just eventually find him alive under a shitload of Tribbles.
"I have never felt so loved!"
