Edit: Never mind.. The UPN affiliate WSBK 38 Boston aired Enterprise at 8:00, you must have watched it from there.

LOL - It looked to me like they destroyed the weapon, recovered from the skin rash (mostly), and realised they were still 5 minutes short! ^_^

 

But the really amazing thing is how those mid-20th century Corsairs flew circles around that 22nd-century shuttle. ;)

Hey there,

 

A few things. First, watch the language folks. ;)

 

Second, in regard to Zero Hour, I loved the episode. The story for the 3/4 of the hour was great. I loved seeing something we have never actually witnessed before, the founding of the UFP. Really was amazing to see. I was really surprised by the presence of the Andorians, though I am starting to see how the two species become closer and closer friends.

 

As to the cliffhanger, must say I sat there going "What the..." Really came out of the blue. Now that's not saying I was upset by it, just wasn't prepared for it. Could attribute that to great writing. I am interested in seeing how the fourth season starts. If I had to take a guess, I would say the destruction of the spheres somehow shifted the area of the expanse? Though, that would not explain Archer....hum....

 

One issue I have has to do with the statement there was only one orbital facility orbiting Earth. Was I the only one thinking it was the Columbia (NX-02) in drydock? I mean, even not completed, I would have assumed Starfleet would have done something. In the same way, where were the Warp 2 capable vessels that we saw at the tail end of the second season? Given the pending threat, you would think there would be ships flying patrol.

 

Outside of those questions, I loved the episode. I think it's a great example of Trek at it's best and I cannot wait until the next season begins.

Great episode, very suspenseful. The ending left me say "What the!? Who the heck is that!? What are they doing there!? etc. etc." But still, you gotta love a cliffhanger. As long as Archer doesn't just wake up and it was all a dream I'll be happy. ;)

 

Can't wait to see the premier of season 4. ^_^

Well, now that I had a chance to see it at 10PM, I can now have an opinionated thought about it. I thought it was a great season ender for the most part. Most of it, especially when Archer was trying to destroy, and replace those rods the weapon was very suspenseful, and my heart, I'm not afraid to say was beating alot faster than normal. Especially during the fight with Archer and the Reptillian. heh heh. Liked the metal planet and the shifter's universe implode in on itself, that was cool, and the reptellian getting blown up by that bomb. ;)

 

The Andorians coming in to help out the Arborials and the Humans was a surprise for me, almost as much of a surprise of the Enterprise finding itself in WWII.

It was funny to see those Corsairs fly circles around the shuttle pod, though.. I am left wondering who was that White faced Nazi, and how did archer survive? Wow.. I can't wait for the 4th season to start next fall. It was a good hour well spent, I'd say. ^_^

It was a really great episode and the ending was very interesting and the three planes shooting at the Shuttle was indeed P-51 Mustangs not Corsairs, I am an Airplane freak especially WWII erra, Please don not take this personal.

Ford made fighter planes? Did they have a stick shift and a convertable top?

Hey there,

 

You know that was my first impression....especially given where they are, west coast of the United States.

Fred beat me to the punch on the Mustangs...

 

Awesome finale..especially when he armed the explosive and stepped behind the column ;) I LOVED IT!

Everyone assumes time travel...what if the timeline has been altered and present day Earth is ...un-advanced...Guess we'll see

I don't think so, I find it very hard to believe that WWII would've been going on for over 200 years and no technilogical advancements whatsoever. ;)

to be honest that red-eye alien scared the hell out of me... i was expecting another nazi... not some freaky devil :S

 

but im almost sure it's got something to do with that temp. cold war, or maybe those vortexes were f***ed up because of the destroyed spheres...

 

:S maybe something similar to what happened in e² ???

 

^_^ when will we get to see the next episode ;)???

First gives Devotus an anti-bad language lecture! ;)

Better pay attention to Fred, there are better ways of

expressing yourself than using foul language!

 

Now,

No Fair!! Foul!! :D

 

Oh, well, maybe I'll catch the reruns. ;) :

I REALLY wanted to see this episode and missed it due to family business. I can't seem to find the finale in UPN's line up. Does anyone know if they plan to play it again anytime soon?

From what I gather, the blue creature's uniform looked kindof like the time travling guy that's always anoying Archer.

 

And in response to the time traveling, they could have been transported to a paralle universe.

 

Also, I belive they said that the NX-02 was being built, but my memory of that line is shot so I could be wrong.

Hey there,

 

Here's my general problem....

 

At the conclusion of season two, Admiral Forest stated the NX-02 was "thirteen months" (give or take) away from being operational. The third season started with three months having passed, meaning the Columbia (as we later found out) was now ten months away from operation. This was in September.

 

Now I know the show didn't go day for day, but I think it'd be logical to assume some time has passed. So by April in non-TV world, numerous months have passed. The NX-02 would now be perhaps four or five months away from operation.

 

By the time the season ended, the ship should have been a few months away from being completed. This would logically mean the superstructure was in place, probably life support systems online, perhaps weapons not installed...maybe power systems not fully tested. However, it would be sitting in orbit above Earth still under construction.

 

So where was it? That's my only question. If in the second episode of season four they state that they moved the ship somewhere else, that'd be fine. However, we know the Constitution Class was being built at San Fransico...which I believe implies the Utopia Planetia Shipyards weren't online until sometime following Star Trek: The Motion Picture.

Here's some things my family and I noticed as we watched.

 

"Daniels has got a funny shape to him" (Noticed while he was talking to Archer at he founding of of the UFP)

 

"Okay, that was familiar" (Fight scene with a Maco and a Reptilian on a bridge thing)

 

"Shran!! I bet you that's where the captian is" (Before we saw him in the Nazi camp)

 

"What? What's with the B-52's? I'm really sick of the whole time switching. It's getting hard to follow" (Quote from my mother, forgive her if she didn't know they were flying mustangs)

 

"Wow." (At the end after we had rewound several times to look at the blue dude again)

 

We think that the time screw up is caused by the exploding weopon, or maybe the exploding spheres.

B-52s, eh? lol.. you know the B-52 is a bomber plane( as well as a type of drink and a band) .. the planes the shuttle pod encountered were P-51 Mustangs. ;) Still I can't wait to find out how Archer survived, and who that freaky looking Nazi is.. gave me the creeps, he did.

Archer had magical powers, he held his breath and jumped from the exploding sphere and landed in the waters where the Nazis found him. He's getting popular with the powers duuude.

 

Ps. I'm not on drugs.
