A history of violence
Possibly unpopular opinion: Harbinger is one of the absolute best episodes of Enterprise

Welcome and enjoy your time 👌
Do you hear the cry of the rope calling you to jump, calling you to glory like a Klingon?
Starfleet going around to other worlds to fix and moralize about other peoples’ problems, but never needing to self-reflect or improve on themselves.
There are a few PTSD episodes that at least try : Picard at the chateau and Archer on shore leave after the Xindi adventure.
I feel these are the best episodes where a character realizes they have changed and not for the better, but I wish there were more.
Maybe trek is sleeping on the post-adventure recontextualization power of a shore leave coda?
time limit games which are nearly impossible without paying for “extra time potions” which you don’t get even if you have the paid version.
Alright then, keep your secrets 3rd star
You have 2 main characters to follow and it’s absolutely different based on your age.
Very similar experience with Cars 3. Children identify with the new up-and-comer race car while grownups identify with a Lightning McQueen who must accept his glory days are past and embrace the next generation.
Shoutout for the race announcer who drops a microcosm of the whole film in a single line:
McQueen’s fading! Fading fast!
Children, we ride for stovokor
So ultimately, I feel like what we’re saying is that in order for Starfleet and that beautiful vision that Roddenberry had of this optimistic utopia, in order for that vision to exist, in order for the light to exist, you need people who operate in the shadows. And it’s a yin and yang. You can’t have one without the other.
I don’t like this sort of mother-goosery in my fully automated luxury gay space communism.
I prefer the assimilating power of root beer as the true defender of the federation.
Ya that episode is great. It lurked in the back of my mind every episode afterward, always hoping to hear any sort of throwaway line about the fate of that ship.
I stared at this so long I was late for my meeting
Haha yes, thanks. The power of a traumatic episode huh?
Who says S31 gets to have all the fun?
These episodes live rent-free in my head.
Wow good guess, so it’s 3 songs then. Those 2 plus particle man.
As I stare at this meme, bewildered, I realize I am only a dilettante that knows 2 songs 🤣😆
If we’re going to take that last shot literally, Baraam is warp-capable
Wow. Turns out I walked away after “Your Mama IV” and completely missed this final shot of the space station going to warp.
Thanks, I hate it.
I think mirror Burnham and Lorka tried to depose her way back in Disco S1, but maybe I am misremembering.
I’m hung up on how utterly ridiculous the succession was portrayed.
I like Star Trek and I’m trying to find the silver lining here, but I just come up empty handed.
I appreciate your thoughtful take. Maybe these are unavoidable contradictions when the simple premise of evil twins is stretched too far.
It’s very unsatisfying.
An empire overflowing with ambitious and unscrupulous climbers who have all decided to allow young Georgiou to have the crown.
Ya let’s make the unhinged evil empire very civil and obedient so our protagonist actually back into the throne instead of actively seizing it. How convenient.
Ultimately it feels like they want to have their cake and eat it too: Georgiou is the baddest bitch, but also she was just trying to survive man! She cried when she murdered her own family, under coercion and duress!
I guess I liked her better when she was bonafide evil.
So the Terran empire runs some kinda hunger games for the next evil emperor… and the current evil emperor is just cool with abdicating I guess?
I wish I could enjoy it, but it just feels so dumb to watch a fairy tale transfer of power in the most evil setting.
My dude you’ve had the patience of a saint, which makes this final rebuke so fucking tasty 🌶️🔥
In hindsight, "the Xindi attack" was a phase change into a much more hard-boiled season of Enterprise.
They cranked it up way past 10, all the way to 24.
I wasn't ready for a 28 episode sustained descent into darkness
I look at you, and I see the person I was three years ago. The explorer that my father wanted me to be. I lost something out there, and I don't know how to get it back.
This one hit me hard after everything that happened.
Watching Enterprise for the very first time
I'm finding it a very root-beer-flavored entry in the franchise.
