Tellarites.

(it should be pointed out that Berman and Braga now face a new problem: they have met the feckless demands of the whiners to such an extent that we're quickly closing on there being literally no TOS aliens left unseen or unmentioned. How will the bitchers be placated in season 4?)

Orion Slave Girls? TNG-DS9-Voyager races known to be active in the 22nd centuary ie Trill and Bolians? Grab random races from TUC?

If I had more faith in Enteprise, this would've been great news. Instead, it triggers a "yeah, so what?" response. It's just another obligatory "continuity" appearance. Continuity != namedropping.

Yay! Hopefully this time they'll have hands that look a bit more reasonable for tool-users.

I remember that the face make-up was different, but did the Tellerite in "The Mark Of Gideon" have different hands than the one taking that kerazy journey to that kerazy planet called Kerazy Babel?

Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

I think you mean "Whom Gods Destroy." There were no Tellarites in "The Mark of Gideon."

I don't know about the hands in WGD - but yeah his eyes weren't inset. Maybe he was half-human/half-tellarite?

The (supposed?) Tellarite in "The Lights of Zetar" had normal hands. And so did the Voyage Home and Undiscovered Country Tellarites.

Were the TVH and TUC guys ever firmly established to be Tellarites? Because I certainly don't recall anybody looking unmistakably Tellaraitish.

No, never. But it is very likely. Especially the TUC makeup is questionable, but this cap shows two distinctly Tellarite looking aliens on the far right.

Well, according to the Las Vegas Star Trek Experience, the "Tellarite" in TUC is the Daakin Ambassador.

The ones in TVH at least are most definitely Tellarites.

And for the record, IMHO Tellarites on ENT = cool.
