[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mark Nguyen: [QB] If T'pol had four asses, would she be quadrupley as hot? Anyway, things to look out for: -The new bridge, and mention of upgrades now that Enterprise is back to business. Apparently there was a special on UPN last night as some wrestler guy is guesting as an Orion slaver - Jolene escorts him to the bridge set (damn he's huge!) and we see a look at a partially-lit bridge, complete with new chair. Odd - if this is the new lighting, it's decidedly warmer than before. Here: http://trekweb.com/articles/2004/10/29/418280c65a950.shtml -Stuff on Orion slavers, culture, how it matches up to other established facts, and any hints at an Orion Syndiacte. -Apparently their mucking with the timeline has now placed the Eugenics Wars, or part of it, only twenty years previous. This DOES mesh with the notion of what Admiral Bennett was saying in DS9 "Doctor Bashir, I Presume?" that the EW were two-hundred years ago, though he does evoke Khan in that speech. Courtesy st-minutiae.com: [b]BENNETT I don't think so. Two hundred years ago, we tried to "improve" the species through DNA resequencing and what did we get for our trouble? The Eugenics Wars. For every Julian Bashir that can be created, there's a Khan Singh waiting in the wings -- a "superhuman" whose ambition and thirst for power have been enhanced along with his intellect. The law against genetic engineering provides a firewall against such men and it's my job to keep that firewall intact.[/b] I guess we'll see what rationalization we can make of this continuity thing this time around. -The "Augments" hijack a Klingon ship to do their dirty work, commanded by J.G. Hertzler as yet another old Klingon character. It's an ENT-era BOP, complete with tractor beams, though stangely dark. Be on the lookout for more about Klingon ships in this era. More soon...
