You can turn one 44-minute episode into a 2-hour feature length big budget movie with any cast, what do you pick?
Voyager: Blink of an Eye with a mix of TNG cast + The Doctor (and we get to see his 3 years on the planet)
Voyager: Blink of an Eye with a mix of TNG cast + The Doctor (and we get to see his 3 years on the planet)
I didn't see it when it aired and it was so, so, so, so (and on and on) good and better than I thought it was going to be.
It's easily better than Voyager.
I love the tactile ship, Archer rules, lot of action and some heavy pre-Prime Directive stuff, I can't think of anything to complain about and when it was over I was sad AF we got robbed of 3 more grand seasons.
How do we bully Mike and Rich into watching it and making a 133 minute review of Season 1?
I'd put together a list of the best 104 (52 weeks x 2 episodes a week) and air them every whateverday with live stream social media watchalongs, intercut interviews (there has to be an absolute mountain of interviews and statements from cast and crew in the vaults)
OR
Better yet, get Brent and Johnny to do a "post-show podcast" (they already have the studio) like The Taking Dead did.
It would do the following
Buy time to get the next phase ready
Introduce classic Trek to a new audience
Leverage pre-existing property that they're just blasting into the ether already
I can't imagine it does less than 40,000 views a week.
TLDR: Archer and crew raid a ship to steal their warp coil, leaving them stranded 3 years from home.
Enterprise is great because a lot of grey stuff happens, but, man this was too much. I was rooting for the other ship to blow them away and leave them with their tail between their legs.
Janeway doesn't hold a candle to the Galactic Pirate Archer.
