Kirkesque

The lastest Enterprise was Kirkesque in its bare-chested, alien slave-babe rescue cheese goodness. This was not just original series cheese. This was over-the-top Edgar Rice Burroughs cheese.

Rescued by Archer from an alien bazaar, a captivating slave girl, Rajiin, uses her erotic, hypnotic mental powers on the crew to steal data on humans for her Xindi overlords.

The Flea is still waiting for Starfleet-issue red-shirt uniforms.

The second season is getting a lot better. I just wish the retooled theme song wasn't so reminiscent of Bon Jovi. The original, while painful in its mock-Michael Bolton rock-ballad cheesiness, was preferable.

Isn't this the **third** season?

I recall watching some episodes when I was stuck home post 9/11.

Darned if I know. I just started watching it at the end of least season when they started the big pseudo-9/11 storyline.

I think I could tell someone it was the third season if I was stopped and interviewed about it in the street. But I can't remember there being a second season so it is a bit moot.
