Star Trek Enterprise- season 3
Review created: 30/03/07(updated 05/04/08)

This series is good. It is good because, as with preceding series, it has your very workable quintet of central characters: Archer, your classic silent, sultry alpha male; Trip, your average, fallible, volatile and infinitely tedious American guy next door; the beautiful T'pol, your obligatory, rational, passionless, Vulcan; Malcolm who if not a deliberate closet-homosexual on screen, would not stand out in an antique shop buying china on Sunset Boulevard; and oh, of course, a slightly comic but ultimately decent doctor. This whole series they spend saving the earth from total obliteration (what else?) this time from the Xindi, who have cut a swathe of destruction the Florida (they could have done worse). The episodes in the series explore in their various philosophical and dramatic episodes arguments that can be also be found in Voyager series, including that old favourite, temporal mechanics. However, it's not all untangling in your head causalities of events in the time line: Trip and T'Pol get their rocks off, yes, a Vulcan has sex - in fact for a race that's obsessed with control, she gets herself into a right pickle: in love with archer, shagging Trip, and gets addicted to some substance on the way which may give her mental health problems for the rest of the series.
Needless to say on the final disc, at the 11th hour, they win & earth is saved, -well how do we get onto series 4? But where is Archer? Dead? Surely no? Quick log onto e.bay and order series 4!
