Default Enterprise and Beauty and the Beast?

Didn't the last episode of Enterprise remind you of a kinda weird Beauty and the Beast?

It seems like the story was very poorly thought out. It just took a very famous idea and adapted the story to the show, but didn't really add anything tothe story. And it didn't capture the magic of the story.

It was nice though to give the Korean girl something to do. I guess its just up there with STNG's Dr Crusher romances her family ghost episode.:p

The only original scene is when they shot the shuttle down. I thought that was good.

Yeah, it really didn't fit. Instead of "Gee, I'm lonely, and immortal", it could have been so much better. I have a crashed klingon ship with all its technology. i have a Xindi weapon system. I have really cool plumbing. But not this.

Ironically I only seen this episode this morning, as in I rather naughtily get them via an online source so am not to far behind, because we have to wait six months for the new episodes here in the UK.

Anyway, I seen it and was not too impressed. They should shoot the entire cast barring Bakula, Trinneer and The British Guy that plays reed. Shoot Blalock too, she may look good in a cat suit but Marina Sirtis, Nichelle Nichols and Nana Visitor could knock spots off of her when it comes to the acting.

Also shoot Berman and Braga and bring Rod Roddenberry in as Executive producer along with a few other people that actually know what Star Trek is about.

Funny this isn't it, they should have really done what I said above for Galactica, but do they listen now. Cos all they care about at the end of the day is the fast buck.
