When it’s time to wrap-up coverage of the series no one watched on TV, looking back at the show’s characters reveals an endearing crew and a capable cast. But after realizing that Enterprise might just be Star Trek Voyager with a bad captain, it raises questions like how are T’Pol and Seven the same and how are Phlox and Neelix different. Which character might as well like owls? How is an assignment on the NX-01 like working at Uxbridge-Shimoda? What is a TV show’s Vice President? It’s the episode that got some warm fuzzies.
