POLL: Your favorite TCW Episode?

[Captain Robert April]

I hate 'em all. The Temporal Cold Sore is the thing that's doing the most damage to the show, and indirectly, the franchise as a whole.

Get rid of it and the mental midget that dreamed it up.

 

[Archer4Trip]

Reasons, sir, reasons!

How did five eps damage the series, in your mind?
How did they do more damage than average writing and recycled plots over time?
Are they distracting from some other focus? (Exploration/BOTF/Vulcan-Andorian???)

Bashing, fine, but no lazy bashing.

I'm with Archer4Trip... please elaborate on your dislike for the TCW. It's the best thing ENT has going as I said before and I explained why I like it...If anyone can tell me why they dislike it, I'd appreciate it.

 

[Captain Robert April]

Check out the "How to Save Enterprise" thread. The reasons are all there, better than I could state here. Besides, I'm tired of repeating myself.

I just LOVE the episode where the Enterprise meets several time traveling people riding a strange carriage like wheeled device coming from the late 1890s, causing a temperal fluctuation which causes the English Empire to gain a global advantage and using "phase" pistols, destroys the Germans during the first world war, and then taking some German scientists working on early rocket designs, puts the first man in orbit in 1934, leading to the establishment of a space station in 1939, as shown during the 1939 World's Fair held in the World Capital, London, resulting in several early space voyages out of the system by the 1970s, due to the early discovery of warp drive, causing the meeting of humans and, now get this, the BORG!!! which results in the "borgification" of the WHOLE WORLD, which results in... oh, I'm sorry, somebody bumped the little red reset button... my bad!

I think you need an option of something to the effect of Hate the Temporal Cold War.

 

[Nebel]

Although I don't like the premise, the Temporal Cold War is the best story arc so far. I wouldn't change it.
Back to the topic, Future Tense stands above the rest.

 

[where'sSaavik?]

Unpinning after a week.

Thanks for the responses folks.

Doesn't I dislike all TCW episodes cover that?

I voted for Future Tense, I want more Tholian episodes.

 

[TSJR]

Hate the Temporal Cold war cos it makes no sense when someone can just go back in time and stop it all from happening. And also the characters involved (Daniels, Silik, "Future Guy") are all very poorly written and not evil or mysterious enough.

Its a load of poorly writen bull!

 

[Barbados Slim]

I thought Cold Front was the most exciting one. Silik killing Daniels, and jumping out of the shuttlebay into space are memorable. I think the TCW works well. The only problem is they don't visit it enough. And although we know from The Expanse that the Xindi arc is connected, we still haven't seen more on the issue.

 

[Temis the Vorta]

I liked Cold Front the best, probably because at that point I didn't realize how badly written the TCW would turn out to be and I was still giving it the benefit of the doubt.

 

[thefounder]

I really have mixed feelings about the Temporal Cold War. I like the episodes but I'm really not fond of the complications it creates in the trek universe. I'm also feeling a bit tired of trek time travel eps. Back to the poll, Future Tense gets my vote. Twas cool to see the Tholians again.

 

[Capn Flukie]

I picked Broken Bow because I haven't seen the other eps except Shockwave pt 1, and while I did like it, I don't feel my vision of it is complete unless I see pt 2.

 

[MvRojo]

Cold Front

 

[Newt]

I voted for Future Tence.

 

[pigletsgiblets]

I voted for Future Tense.
