Welcome back to the stage of JAG THE GEMINI
I know they are referred as "photonik" torpedoes, but that is just a slightly different term ´cause that was just the experimental name 22nd Starfleet gave them at that time.

Malcolm always seems so happy when Archer tells him he can blow things up.
Grimm Ronin he's a British Royal Navy officer in space, trust me it goes with the territory hahaha
He's been very good this month!
I can tell you as a Rocket Artillery man I smile ear to ear every time I get told to shoot a rocket
That's Reed's entire job 😁
His ghost inhabits worf
Ironic that by Klingon standards, Archer was merciful. Duras and his crew died in battle, and therefore would have entered Sto'Vo'kor. Had Archer disabled his ship and spared him, House Duras would have lost its honor for several generations---and Worf and Captain Picard would never have had to deal with the crisis Duras's great grandson later caused.
Good Point... He already spared him once, should have done that a Seconds time lol
Which is saying something given how treacherous and dishonourable the House of Duras has always been.
If House Duras were not a prominent family, they would not have wielded enough power to work with the Romulans for the attack on Khitomer. Thus, Worf likely would not have been raised by human foster parents and would not have joined Starfleet.
Duras would have likely tried to get revenge. Maybe even side with the Xindi for maximum effect. Which would of course likely do the Alpha Quadrant.
@@JAGtheTrekkieGEMINI1701 I disagree. He should have killed him the first time. Not doing so set up this chain of events that resulted in this outcome and eventual war with the empire.
I love that Archer is just over Duras and his bullsh!t. "Surrender!" "Got to Hell" that's why I enjoy ENT. They're slightly more relatable lol
Picard woulda given him poetry with tea in his hand while Geordi whipped something up in Engineering.
Aaaand he sure sent him to hell. ^^

What, pray tell, is "yeeet"?
@@Species5008 Yeet. To discard an item at high velocity. Otherwise, to lob or throw. Among other definitions. American slang at its finest (or worst, depending on your point of view).
@@skybennett3902 it's basically like skipping a stone across a pond but just stronger
@@jasonpye4649 Yes, but not really, but yes. I'd consider that description to be a part of the discarding an item at high velocity.
It was nice to see enterprise actually start winning
Its the house of Duras, does it really count?
That was a very underappreciated aspect of Star Trek Enterprise, this was not the Starfleet from the TNG era or even the original series, it was new, small, and often outmatched both in numbers and in technology, it makes perfect sense for them to not do well in combat given the fact that it was only 90 years after first contact.
I fully admit I was wrong in ignoring Enterprise when it was new, though I remember why I didn't watch it and still hate those episodes
Thanks to JJ Abrams, I’ve accepted the whole notion of “choose your canon!” So as far as I’m concerned the only Star Trek that I pay attention to is the Original Recipe, Original Recipe Animated, Deep Space Nine, and a couple of movies and novels!
“No bloody NX...!”
Which was why Enterprise for the most part was unenjoyable for most Trek fans. The Enterprise as well as Starfleet in general were feeble and often rather incompetent.
I wish the show had keep on going and let us see Starfleet adaptation of shields and other more advanced techs.
The city of Zodanga saw to that
Season 5 more random episodes with some leading into the Romulan War.
Season 6 Romulan War ending.
Season 7 rounding off with coming home and seeing the Constitution Class half built would have been a great ending.
they kinda did . in the episode where archer gets hit by an anomaly and gets those temporal virus things in his head and we see the future where earth got blown up the enterprise got shields . they where given to them by shran the andorian.
@@develynseether4426 The Connies were like 90 years away from the start of ENT...would've been a long ass season :D
@@mito-pb8qg could have jumped ahead some years per season like they did with 'These Are The Voyages'.
Considering how few starships Starfleet must've had even by 2161 it never sat right Enterprise was decommissioned after only 10 years, to have it still running after 60 or 70 years would have made sense anyway.
Duras is the Biff Tannen of the Star Trek universe.
His entire house is.
"They evaded us!"
"I hate manure-ability!"
PRETTY MUCH!!!
so if archer had killed him before he had a son, worf and k'ehlyr would be together. no duras sisters. the khitomer massacre would likely not have been as successful... damn....
Why don't you make like a targ, and get outta here!!!
So interesting that the Enterprise was the first ship to do everything. Photon torpedoes, transporters, actual but secret contact with the Borg and Ferengi, shenanigans with the Duras family, Vulcans with ever-changing lip collagen levels...
LOL really. What are the odds...
Well the Enterprise was the flagship of the Federation and therefore was involved in many diplomatic encounters both on and off the books and while the Columbia was involved in exploration they weren't as "memorable" as Enterprises'. 😉
Vulcans be doing the implants :I :D
The last one...
Golden...
@@jm823 It means the writes sucked.
I was never anti Enterprise but the more I watched it the better I thought it was and the more I loved the characters. Its now up there as a firm favourite of mine.
Ive loved Enterprise since it was still on when MANY other Trek fans stuck their noses up to it -all over a damn theme song! To me 2005 was the end of MY TREK and a few years later the new JJ crap started and they're still catering to it in 2022. I miss the old Trek and I wish it would come back and be great again.
@@moonbear7496 I gave STD a chance but couldn't finish the first season. Too much fucking with the lore and it was shit. Didn't even try watching Picard. Got all the proper series on DVD and that's all I need. I will say though that The Orville, once it decided it wanted to be more serious was pretty Star Trekky rather than parody. Probably due to the amount of writers and the show runner from Voyager and Enterprise involved.
The issue was the first 2 season and the major contijuity issues
@@moonbear7496 song was odd but wasn't an outwrite hater of it. it was the continuity issues with me.
I loved Enterprise too! Everything was a little rougher, still had to improvise. Really captured the 'exploration' part.
Very underrated series. I actually didn't watch it when it first came out but I got hooked later and watched every single episode. Hate the way it ended (Trip).
I liked the Last Season SO MUCH
Some great Episodes and the Characters were really fleshed Out and Special in the end
Such a Shame there was No 5th Season introducing one or maybe even the Most Important Event in Star Trek History .
The "Earth-Romulan War"
Joey Smith Yeah... Pretty much the first rule of Star Trek: Enterprise is "we don't talk about the ending."
Agree and we may have seen the NX_01 refit as well if they'd kept on going.
Oh well.
The G!D! "timecop" story arc is what ruined Enterprise, and then they doubled down on that misguided plan to scupper Disco. If I wanted to watch TimeCop, I'd pull out classic JCVD & enjoy the original, knowhutImeen? CBS needs to go to ComicCon, recruit a panel of fans & use them as a steering committee to keep eeedioht [/Ren] execs from destroying the franchise...
I was always hoping Trip would be killed off in the first season, he was annoying.
Duras: ...or be destroyed!
Archer: Go to Hell!
should have used the klingon hell instead , oh well.
AND THEY ACTUALLY WENT TO HELL
@@sheilaolfieway1885 go to sto vokor you patak ?
@@thomas.parnell7365 Sto'vo'kor is where the honored dead go, Duras had a one way ticket to Gre'thor.
@@blun7m4n85 Agreed. Much as his great grandson, he was without honor. His soul is being tortured in Gre'thor.
I think the Duras family came up with the Klingon slogan "Today is a good day to die." They seem so skilled at dying.
I know Klingons are a fearsome warrior race, and their ships are marvels of superior technology... But they still look like a bunch of homeless guys in a beat up minivan.
Underrated comment
@Matthew Caughey That is true. Again, not unlike homeless people.
Comes from eating too much “Gok”☺️
Klingons lack the ability to adapt unlike humans. Humans are klingons, vulkans, ferengi and pretty much any race combined into one package. This is why Q was interested in humans. Also, humans did things in one century what took Vulkans over several centuries.
@@stickassholio3163 it's Gagh, now Qapla' means success 🖖
I love that within just a few years of encountering Klingons United Earth has already upgraded their exploration ships to outclass a Bird of Prey in ship to ship combat.
I think they stole photon torpedo technology from Klingons with the scans they took of the derelict ship in season 1.
@@JimmyCerra No they didn't.....Malcolm states that Starfleet had been working on Photon Torpedoes for years.....
@@TenmaStupidity Malcolm installed photon torpedoes in April 2153. I just watched the scene where Malcolm first talks about them in The Expanse, and he doesn't mention Starfleet was working on them. Sleeping Dogs was a year and a half prior in fall 2051. Malcolm does mention in Sleeping Dogs that he never heard of them. Therefore, even if he did say that Starfleet was working on them, it jives roughly with them getting the technology in that episode.
Starfleet engineers can turn rocks into replicators
@@JimmyCerra He wouldn't have known about a top secret weapons program like that. He would have only found out they'd been in development for years *after* the weapons were deployed.
The show ended much too soon.
Indeed
Agreed
Especially since Season 5 would have added Jeffrey Combs to the main cast, as Shran, and featured the Romulan war. And Elizabeth (Trip and T'Pol's child) would have lived, too.
seriously season 4 kicked it up a notch.. then cancelled sigh
If they had dumped all the time travel nonsense much sooner (or just not went there at all), and the quality of the last season had been present in the first two, it would have probably lasted longer. As it is...a lot of "shoulda woulda coulda".
was a highly under rated show. I miss it. Now we have discovery. and now we know what garbage is.
Discovery is 100 times better than Enterprise. You should be grateful Trek is back.
@@briansmith2739 discovery is CRAP! Just like the three newest Trek movies. Absolute GARBAGE!!

@@madcapmagician3130 haha yeah. Haven't seen it. Gave up on a good trek series. Funny how cbs was slamming orville for its style of humor, saying it was bad. Then they went and copied it with lower decks. Lol.
@moreno valley news first Yeah, died too soon and with a deeply, deeply flawed finale. But it was very poorly received in the first season, and too many people abandoned it to really see what it was like once it got rolling. A shame, even if it played hell with the already shaky canonical history.
"Klingon blood has been spilled this day. And this we do not forgive! ...Or forget..." - Gowron, Klingon Chancellor, many years later.

@@darkclawgreatonenas I'm glad I'm not the biggest nerd here! LOL
Amazing how many people bitched about this show, refused to watch and support it. How many of those people now say it's so wonderful?
Was it that many? I sure didn't. Neither did my peers who watched it.
I remember when it came out, I was reeling over the cancelation of Farscape. At the time, Enterprise seemed like a step back in regards to sci fi shows. Now watching it, i'll admit, it has a nostalgic charm and familiarity and it's a lot more enjoyable than I gave it credit for. I think that modern shows, are trying too hard to be "Cinematic Masterpieces," they're all style over substance and lack the integrity and humanity, of past shows. Surprisingly, The Orville seems to have picked up the slack, even if it is a parody.
I was one of those people.. simply because they tried to shoehorn another Enterprise into history with no previous mention. However, since its streaming now, I started watching it from the beginning since I was so disappointed with Discovery. I'll be damned it is actually good, it feel like Star Trek. Archer is actually pretty bad ass, emulates a USN submarine captain.
Like Voyager, it got better as it aged, when the sting of the bad wore away and the good could be remembered without pain.
To be honest. Every ST Series needed at least 3 season to become good and another two seasons to become awesome. The problem nowadays is that everyone is complaining on the internet about stuff nobody cared 25 years ago. People seems to have to much time and to less important things to do - which is funny, because the world needs people who do things.
I was 12 when ENT first aired man something about it just set it apart from the other star trek shows still my favorite one to this day. ill never forgive the fans that boycotted it and led to getting us this new version of star trek picard and the cartoon.
It was alright, the only problem was that the style and colour palette was so different to any other star trek series that it made it seem to not fit in.
You know what their biggest issue was? The fact that the theme song was vocal and not instrumental. That was it.
Definitely not my favorite but it shouldn't have died, especially not the way that it did.
@@amc6169 After TNG and DS9, i had gotten use to A-plot and B-plotS being both interesting. Enterprise was cool with me but i wanted more B-plots to give other senor staff members character arcs. i was a fan of NASA so the opening theme clicked with me, it was only that most of the narratives revolved around three at most. still was 50 million times better then what we have today.
I also blame Star Trek Enterprise’s downfall on the rise of mouth breather shows like American Idol and Keeping up with the huge ass family. The collective intelligence of the nation has dropped to fucktardness status since Enterprise was cancelled.
Target that explosion and fire...

I loved this show! I wish they made more.
It's a shame that season 5 was never produced. I'd love to see the original cast return to actually produce the 5th season to tie everything together, from a continuity aspect. Plus, the series was coming into full stride after the Xindi and Vulcan story arcs.
After watching 2 seasons of STD and 1 & 1/2 episodes of Picard, I have much more admiration for this show.
It's funny. A lot of people bitched about ENT while it was on, and after it was cancelled. We really didn't know how good we had it back then.
Good thing Picard turned it around in S3 and we have SNW now.
@@redtyrant3106 It was a big improvement when they tried to give fans what they wanted. SNW is pretty uneven, but I'm trying to stay with it. Every other snw episode is pretty silly.
My wife and I called this series "Cave Trek."
It actually got kinda hilarious how often the early episodes ended up in caves.
Wispur Kultus .....Wow. I had actually never realized that, but it's kind of true! 😂
Caves were heavily common in this entire era of Trek, due to the fact they had a massive soundstage with a cave set that was modular and designed in such a way that it could be rearranged quickly and filmed from different angles to make the set look different each time. Look how often the caves were used on TNG and such.
Honestly, the episode where the plants were making Trip hallucinate the rock monsters in the cave was pretty good.
Enterprise suffered badly in its first season from TNG story telling
Photonic Torpedo technology was given to Starfleet by the Vissians after the Xindi Attack in 2153. It's likely that Starfleet didn't have the ability to mass produce these undoubtedly expensive devices hence the use of primitive Atomic Weapons (Spatial Torpedoes?) In the Earth Romulan Conflict of 2156 to 2160. Starfleet Photon Torpedoes wouldn't be standardized until 2215. The Klingons already had Photon Torpedoes as early as 2151 while other races seemed to use non Antimatter Warheads (Gravitic or Merculite).
Yep that sounds about right... I was always interested how Starfleet gained certain technologies 👍
@@JAGtheTrekkieGEMINI1701 most of it was speculation and some technical manual material. An attempt to provide a good reason for the hyper advanced technology in 2153.
I envisioned the Earth Romulan conflict as being near apocalyptic (Only hope and unity saved the powers that would become the Federation). Earth fully militarized and everything was used for the war effort. The Romulans weren't above the use of cheap but high Yield Nuclear weapons. Starfleet responded in kind when the Romulans effectively destroyed the Vissian civilization.... Which also happened to be the only ally of Earth that could mass produce the Photonic Torpedo (Vulcans had them but Romulan Agents destroyed their capability to either mass produce or share the technology). By 2160 Photonic Torpedoes were limited to Orbital Defenses Vessels. Starfleet continued producing Photonic Torpedoes but at a very slow pace especially given that there was a war on. Spatial Torpedoes were only capable of yields up to a Kiloton so High Megaton range Outdated Nuclear Warheads were seen as a cost effective alternative as Photonic Torpedoes were just as powerful (Just with reduced fallout and variable yield).
@@richardched6085 this Sounds reasonable yet I do think that, at least the Development of the photonic Torpedo was forseable when the Enterprise found that klingon bird of Prey near the corona of a Star in the First or 2nd season and Malcolm Reed, a weapons expert read the Word "Photon Torpedo" with the Help of Hoshi. And it's Development doesn't contradict canon, since Worth mentioned in a TNG Episode that only Phaser were Not invented in the 22nd century( although Phase weapons are almost the Same and provide a contunuity Problem imo), but no word about Photon Torpedos, so they did indeed exist and should have been used in the Romulan War. I Always thought that nuclear weapons were still used cause they were available in high Numbers and were still powerful Like you Said, but imo Not really for ship to ship Combat but used more as a Last Resort weapon, Like in "Balance of Terror" by the Romulans and as a Planetary Bombardement device since it seems to have been a war without any Mercy.
@@JAGtheTrekkieGEMINI1701 i agree. Maybe Earth had to make primitive warships armed with Nukes to keep up with Romulan developments. Star Trek Legacy introduced the notion that Nuclear Weapons easily disable energy shields due to the electromagnetic pulse. And no matter how much hull armor Plating a starship has. A direct hit will almost certainly release lethal doses of radiation into the ship. Kirk's Enterprise was temporarily disabled by a Nuclear Bomb detonated 100 meters away from the hull. Imagine what that would do to an NX class Starship..... If a quarter kiloton Tricobalt Mine was able to blow a chunk out of the NX-01 with unpolarized Hull Plating i imagine that a 30 or 50 Megaton Nuclear Missile would absolutely obliterate the vessel. However nukes would be pretty easy to shoot down and would likely be fired en masse in volleys. The Romulans were likely the first to use Nukes in this way during the war given their cruel and treacherous nature. Plus the Romulans weren't above bombarding worlds from orbit (As seen in DS9).
Richard Ched - Color me impressed. 👍🏼
If I was Trip, I'd be begging for a salvage run of that wreckage.
trip " cap'n, i've found several of their sheild emmitters , one of their warp seven engines , various disrupter parts and cap'n, an intact cloaking generator ! permission to beam it all aboard?" granted trip, good work, should help us in the expanse... , and the omega timeline breaks off ......
"Their plot armour has been enhanced....."
The look on Malcom's face when Archers says "fire". Priceless :D
Was always a favourite show of mine, watching Archer struggle to learn the ropes of the galaxy as they uncovered it, and developing a hard ass when it came to Duras, honestly, no wonder they hate the federaton later on in the timeline, they keep getting their butt whooped with ease, even in primitive ships
It was so satisfying to watch the underpowered Enterprise NX 01 take out a tough ship like that Klingon Bird of Prey.
I really liked the moments when this Enterprise; a brand new vessel built by a Starfleet that has no idea what's doing (w/r/t enemies in space) and crewed by a bunch of rookies; goes into battle against aliens who think they're going to make quick work of this Earther vessel, and promptly get the crap kicked out of them.
It just strikes me as laughably unlikely.
Klingons: We Have Shields!
Torpedoes: Hold my anti-matter.
Probably the most under appreciated star trek series, the characters, ship and time period was excellent fun, it was a shame it was let down by some poor story telling
@Martin Dennis Couldnt agree more. The whole Xindi story arc was way to convoluted, bloated and simply not fun. That season took a number of character's on nonsensical and dare I say non believable character arcs. All the work they'd put into defining the individual personalities and relationships just seemed go down the toliet, it just wasn't plausible. The idea that T'pol didnt end up with Archer was a case in point imo, that story arc took a hard right for no real reason and made no sense imo.
I loved the the basic premise of the ship and its crew, there was so much they could've explored with that over many season akin to Voyager. A great cast, a great concept, so much promise pissed up against the wall.
They seem to be repeating the same mistakes with discovery
@@Gethsemanes Lol, i would watch Enterprise over the boring TNG any day. TNG had some interesting moments with Picard, Q, Data... But that doesnt take away the boring Riker, Troy, Wesley and Dr Crusher.... The Xindi Arc is good, and Tpol - Trip romance is the best in Star Trek to date, and i loved the Archer - Tpol love story from that subspace brain worm episode. And absolutelly love commander Shrann.
@@neddhu Enterprise sucked.... it managed to have worse cgi then TNG and the stories were boring esp the xindi arc ... it wasn't without its moments and Scott Bacula carried the show as usual.. Tpol was a smoke show and everyone loves trip but it was a show no one wanted ...they should of went into the future past the tng/ds9 era ... they literally could of made anything..completely blank slate ...but instead we get Riker and troi past their primes in a shitty holodeck sequence and then a decade without trek .. to each his own tho hahah
@@fperri302 Everyone has their own oppinion. For me the best Star Trek was DS9, followed by Enterprise and Voyager. For some reason i find TNG extremly boring. There are some episodes i enjoy: the ones that Q is in them, and random ones, but for the most part its just a bore fest... Can't stand Riker, Troy, Crusher and Wesley... but it makes up with Worf, Data and Geordi... and yes Picard is enjoyable, sometimes.
Enterprise had some of the best story telling, way better than the other spinoffs.
Too bad Earth-Romulus War never aired, that war was brutal in the novels.
Indeed... Such a shame it was never displayed on TV
They could have but instead spent 2 seasons fighting aliens that attacked Earth too me that ruined it I practically quit watching it after that
I'm rewatching ENT and while I find the filler episodes a lot more tedious than TNG or VOY, I think the overarching concept for the story of ENT is actually quite cool. I think they missed the boat by not doing more and wasted a lot of the 26 episodes with boring mini plots.
Was such a nice series.... yes it has flaws... but the writers also did so many things right! They showed a humanity.. that can´t do anything,,, the showed the first steps... first time warp 5.... first phasers.... first replicators... first forcefields... first tractorbeam.... and then later how humanity gets new tek.... like the schilds and photon torpedos... would have been so nice to see more of that,... Earth Romulan war...and then the forming of the federation.... and then let it end with the last szene of some ingenieurs... working on the plans for the Constitution Class!
expermintal but quite deadly when paired with a plasma and Quantum torpedo.
In later centuries indeed
That last part with the music it gives me chills every single time I don't know why
The effects department never could keep track of where the weapons were supposed to be on this ship. The aft torpedo tubes are on the bottom of the saucer. Those torps came out of what’s supposed to be a maintenance airlock
They had that same problem on TOS, but they fixed it on the remastered version. On the older copies the phasers came out of everywhere at one point or another.
Most shows had this problem. I remember the Enterprise-D firing a phaser out of her forward torpedo launcher in the neck.

Very good episode. Great show. Never should have been canceled. I watch non of networks tv. They are so out of touch with what people want
The producers killed that show by adding the Xindi arc. It was there approach after the events of 9/11. Normally the shows planed like the first TOS session that the Enterprise goes from one planet to the next and make friends and foes. Maybe to visit Denobula or Bajor before the occupation by the Cardassians.
I heard also rumors to had more like a session one on Earth were prepares for the first five year mission is going on.
I would liked to see also the idea of a refugee people ask Earth to allow to settle on earth. That is an idea back in the days of Gene Roddenberry that alien - some hundert tausends find recrue on Earth in exchange for new technology.

I miss Archer. :)
Biggest problem with Klingon ships is too much explodium in the construction.
Was needed to stabilise the Hidium in the cloaking device
Is that the same material used to construct the interior of the bridges?
every james bond boss & 80's action film villain went to the same building material suppliers
Good to see that the klingons adapted the tradition of putting explodium into they bridge consoles.
Haha Indeed
Interesting how photon torpedoes and shields were variously characterized in destructive power and protective strength through the different Star Trek episodes and series. I remember in TOS Balance of Terror the Enterprise was seriously damaged after it detonated a single Romulan explosive charge, yet in The Deadly Years the Enterprise appears to be hit about a dozen times by Romulan weapons but the only result was that, according to Sulu, the Enterprise was losing power. Also in The Changeling Mr. Spock reports that the Enterprise's shields absorbed energy from weapon Nomad fired that was the equivalent of 90 of the Federation's photon torpedoes, more than once! Now that's some shields!! In Elaan of Troyius, the Klingon vessel is badly damaged and forced to withdraw after being hit by one, possibly two, photon torpedoes fired by the Enterprise. Makes you wonder if the Klingon shields were really that inferior to the Federation shields. In TNG it would either take massive enemy firepower to seriously damage the Enterprise, or alternatively the Enterprise would lose her shields completely after one or two minor hits and be boarded, such as in the episode where the Ferengi captured the Enterprise after firing on it from a seized Klingon Bird of Prey. It apparently just depended on what the writers needed for the particular episode. Seems like it was all over the board in various episodes.
Yes, indeed! Don't get me started on the variability of Starfleeet technology. It reached its nadir in the OS episode "Court Martial", where the tricorders and sensor systems that could scan an entire planet for life forms couldn't even find a man hiding on their own ship!
Excellent comment.
Simple! Star Trek shields have a hole, not any hole, plot hole. it opens and closes by plot convenience.
Not all Romulan ships are the same. The one from balance of Terror was a prototype.
The ever present plot armor...
"Go to hell!"
Something about this to makes Archer stand apart from other Starfleet captains from other series. Other captains in the future try to be diplomatic to some degree or another, but here Archer is like "I am one hundred and ten percent DONE with this asshole!"
Have you not met Sisko's pimp hand?
@@chadbizeau5997 See, Sisko traditionally tries to at least talk people down first before he gives them the back of the hand and then is like "Don't say I didn't try to warn you, foo!"
But yes, Sisko and Archer are very much cut from the same cloth. Probably why I like them both so much
This series was pretty cool dispite some minor continuity issues, but having watched vids on the fasa stuff and the 4 years wars, I would have liked to have seen the lasers and accelerater cannons used on these early ships, I know fasa stuff isn't cannon, but would have been cool to see
Maybe in a timeline somewhere FASA's 4 years war is canon...
I love how they get their hands on their new torpedoes and they're so impressed with their new toys they forget about the phase cannons completely lol
Haha seems so but the Truth is the Phase Cannons were down due to precision strikes by the Klingons ;)
"surrender"
"your ass!"
"or be destroyed!"
"GO TO HELL!"
I lone Archer XD
I miss this series. I really enjoyed it.
The last old style Star Trek show. Klingons still look like Klingons and so on.
@Jason Lee Trater That was explained, troll.
Looks aside, the TOS-era klingons were more interesting as a treacherous, deceitful, manipulative, opportunistic species than the TNG-era honourable warrior species.
CBS-era klingons are all over the place. Implausible brutes who are constantly subjugated into convenient plot devices.
I also don't like how they mumble their language like they've got mouthfuls of sticky oatmeal, but that's just opinion.
@@pwnmeisterage i think Sam was referring the STD discovery Klingons
69 likes 😏 nice
While Disco went way too far with the Klingots (😁), the old Klingons looked way too much like rejects from a Gwar concert. Disco should have gone with the Abramsverse Klingons; they were updated, but not so far from what we know to take people out of the ST universe.
wow! The Enterprise NX1 is finally throwing throwing in punches. That is so cool
Killed by Captain Archer, resurrected only to be killed again by Worf.
It's not easy being Duras.
See that Discovery? No tears involved.
Criminal we never got Season 5 but we get "Pic-ar-tard" and "Lower wreaks"
Lower Decks is LIT.
I wonder if the Klingons' translator translates 'hell' as 'Gre'thor'. And if so, does it seem as if Archer is telling them to die dishonourable deaths, and go to Klingon Hell?
Klingon Hell sucks, man. Neelix is down there.
😂
I mean hell is pretty much the same no matter which species
@@Excalibur01 It's nothing but Neelix's. All the way down.
Human hell is not a nice place either.
More like 9+ layers of personalized torture.
@@christopherg2347 that's Dante's inferno. The Bible was never specific about hell.
Those poor, poor Durasians just can't get a break.....
Duras: I can't believe they got Antimatter warheads now!
Reed: HEHE, TORPEDO GO "THUMP THUMP"
I think the name of this episode was "Fuck Around And Find Out"
Lt Commander Worf has liked this video.
I wonder if they used the same actor for Duras ENT and TNG, like they did for Worf TNG and ST6?
Phinally! 😂. Got tired of those WW2 missies going “pop” on the enemy hull!
When "Enterprise" was on the air, we complained it was the weakest entry in the franchise so far. Alex Kurtzman: "Hold my beer..."
I watch all the series when broadcast and wasn't a fan of the first season second and third season show a little improvement BUT the fourth season was great they had figured what need improvement and did it and i was very surprised when they pulled the plug. i should say i normally wouldn't give a show more that a few episodes to get going but i remembered Star trek the next generation and how it took a few seasons to find a groove and improve and gave the Enterprise a break. glade i did.
@@schirpik Eeeeh while there was a lot of good stuff, there was also some dodgy shit, like the Nazi aliens. Thats was just bizarre.
Discovery has come a long way from that politically correct mess of the first season,
I remember being excited to watch it with my dad just like voyager. back when TV wasnt poison.
I started watching a few episodes when I heard my hometown was the set in one of the episodes. I thought it was entertaining for a sci-fi plus it was free. I'm not a Trek fan but, I wouldn't touch Picard or Discovery if my iPhone's life depended on it.
Still satisfying to watch all these years later .:)
Yeah, thanks 😉
The shield of the enterprise is always ineffective even at 100%
This series was before it's time. So underrated.
Don't be messin' with the Archer.
I really wish this show had played up that aspect of Archer more. You get this gee-whiz folksy American dude who really justs wanna have a beer with aliens. And it makes sense since you cast Scott "Oh boy" Bakula in the lead.
But....after he's asked you very nicely, multiple times, to cut the shit, and you fail to listen...then he turns into Ben Sisko and has no problem vaporizing you and your whole crew. Which also helps by casting Scott Bakula.
Best and LAST warbird explosion CGI explosion if I'm not mistaken! Very well animated.
Indeed
The Duras are pain in the ass, in ANY generation!
And you know that every last one of these honorless peta'Q'mey ended up in Gre'thor.
i still binge watch the show
People started liking this show more after DSC and PIC came out for some reason.
It was garbage at the time it originally aired, but now it seems wonderful when compared to the crap they're passing off as "Star Trek" these days.
I so wished this show lasted longer!!!
This was such a better show then the new shit
You must be new, because this show was also hated in the same levels as Discovery as well. (by the pseudo true fans)
With the sole exception of DS9, it's been that way for every new Star Trek series. People hated TNG when it first came out, with some even suggesting that the show could never succeed with an older, balding captain at the helm. Voyager got a quite a bit of hate too, and it wasn't until well past the cancellation of Enterprise that people began to appreciate it. Enterprise, too, got a lot of hate, and we're just now beginning to see people like Rebel Scum expressing an appreciation for Enterprise. 50 years from now, I have no doubt Rebel Scum's grandkids will be saying, "Man, Star Trek: Triangulum Outpost sucks! It can't hold a candle to the classics like Discovery and Picard!"
@@waltonsimons12 TMNT has seen the same shit from self processed "true and only fans". With a ton of idiotic hate that doesn't even fit criticism even. Like blasting the number of toes of a character!
Well, by all things someone could criticize, it is and it was StarTrek.
@@TravelWithCesarin No it wasn't. Enterprise wasn't particularly popular for a Trek show but it wasn't hated.
The Klingons had been expanding their empire for 200 years. The fact that there would be conflict eventually with the Klingons was obvious to the members of Starfleet. - Admiral Ramirez
A shame, that they stopped this great series! :-( I loved watching every single episode! I felt with the crew to explore new worlds, find the and fight with the Xindy, allied with honorious Cool Andorian Shran, kicking some Vulcanian butts .... see the history for the beginning of the United Federation of Planets!
I kinda Love Andorians!
Totally dug Archer's interactions w/ Shran; Andorians were just an excuse for some makeup s/fx in TOS; it was nice to finally get some actual alien cultural development for them!
1:59 best evidence you should invest in body shops now; all that, and look how pristine the hull is!
The idea of a primitive starship Enterprise held a lot of appeal to me, initially. When they basically gave it modern Trek tech, that kinda' killed the luster for me. I think it would have been more interesting to watch the ship gradually "grow up", rather than jump ahead 100 years, minus shields.
I agree. Besides having No shields, they also shouldn't have had Beam Weapons and Transporter Tech imo
I enjoyed the series overall, but I agree. I would have given Enterprise more primitive tech. Lasers and missiles, but no 'phase cannons' (phasers), photon torpedoes, definitely no transporters etc. The tech was just too advanced for the period they were depicting. I still think it was good overall and I liked the way they showed the Federation founder members coming together for the first time. The developing relationship between Shran and Archer kind of encapsulated and symbolised that. Enterprise did get a lot of things right, even if it got some things wrong.
@@paulwhite6745 They had missiles in the first two seasons, only upgraded to Torpedo's in the last episode of season 2 with the Xindi Arc
@@paulwhite6745 Wasn't the Enterprise transporter a prototype? It didn't do any filtering, there was only one on the ship, it was tiny, and I wouldn't be surprised if it was plugged directly into the warp core for power.
@@kargaroc386problem was that it should've had accidents, including transporter psychosis that would've been a notable flaw as established in canon. It also materialized faster than in TOS.
At least they came up with new graphics for that Bird of Prey explosion. 😏
How many torpedoes did enterprise have?
They used alot during this season.
Almost like voyagers 38 torpedoes problem
Kinda true
In Voyager's defense, many of those episodes un-happened (time reset, parallel timeline, clones).
@@matts1166 In Caretaker chakotay states theres 38 torpedo's.. In Scorpion pt2 Seven of Nine says voyager has 32torpedos.
I'm pretty sure they used more then 6 between the episodes
@@reesemontoya5318 I always assumed that they'd converted a space for low-volume manufacture.
@@matts1166 I just rewatched Dreadnought and they were talking about taking apart the missile for spare parts and chakotay says they can convert voyagers tubes to fire the quantum torpedos but they never got to offload any before it re-armed and jumped to warp, so lets assume they offloaded torpedo's from the dreadnought
T'Pol: Archer, you've made your point--let them pull back!
Archer: I'll take it under advisement. HIT THEM AGAIN.
Woulda been a bit more dramatic if he answered "Surrender" with "Open fire!"
That something kirk would have done
I was so glad when they upgraded from those rocket-propelled spit-balls they had earlier.
Ah the House of Duros always has someone dying.
Because as Worf would say "they are without honor." Kerplah!
Should it be renamed the House of Kenny?
@@wschnabel1987 LOL! I am surprised South Park did not do a cartoon parody of Star Trek yet. Cartman would make a fun starship captain if he does not get his fat ass stuck in the captain's chair.
@@exposingproxystalkingorgan4164 If they did I picture him more like Zapp Brannigan mixed with archer from the spy show. :)
@@wschnabel1987 Archer is a funny show and so is Futurama. They are all so dumb it is amusing.
3 kilometers wide or deep??? How would that affect yield calculations?
One would have to assume wide. Given the make-up of all but nickel-iron chunks, an explosion is going to dig a wide and relatively shallow crater.
Duras' ship exploded and I was thinking they were going to reuse that scene of the Bird of Prey blowing up from Star Trek: Generations and Star Trek 6.
I have an idea, they would also be great to use as coffins too.
Oui....
Um.... that's already been done. MANY years ago......watch TWOK or TSFS
@@Species5008 I believe that the comment was sarcastic
Charlie Roberts lmao 🤣 indeed it was.
Knowing the military as I do, the reports will be mind numbing...
One thing that I really liked about Enterprise was the more WW2 submarine look and feel to the ship. I would have enjoyed the show more if we had more of the ship to ship combat with Klingons and Romulans and the struggle of humans moving past the tendencies of shoot first and ask questions later. It would have given more weight to the foundation of the Federation. I also think the show would have benefited more if it didn't have a season long arc of the Temporal Cold War and maybe just had two or three episodes dealing with a rogue time traveler.
Can't disagree
That homage "destroy a Klingon ship and fly through the wreck" shot!
I always thought the dis series 'Enterprise' seemed way to modern-looking compared to the very first TV Enterprise. The show's creators could've easily made it look more befitting of spaceships of the generation, rather than give them a way too futuristic look comparable to Voyager.
"One day the house of Duras WILL rule the Empire!!"
"...perhaps. BUT NOT TODAY."
Or ever
Over two centuries of dishonor says otherwise.
They pulled the plug way to early for this show and Serenity.
Tpol was getting more"likable". Oh well she got on another show a few years back something to do with bug extermination.
We need more of these again. Old school old tech; “Star Trek origins”. Oh and I wouldn’t mind the use of actual models now and then. CGI is fine but can’t go wrong with a bit of retro. Like a new hope. It goes with the old tech feel if u ask me.
