Does anyone know when they dropped the article from ship names, and why?

I think they stopped on Voyager because calling "The Voyager" sounded funny.

Didn't love it but it wasn't horrid. I adore Bill Cobbs so it was nice to see him on screen but other than that it was just there.

Seemed to me like a combination of TOS's "The Ultimate Computer" and TNG's "Relics".

It was okay, but after the Vulcan episodes I was really expecting more.

I did enjoy the small stuff with T'Pol, Trip and the doctor. T'Pol seems to be accepting and adapting to the teachings of Surak. Maybe this has finally closed the relationship with Trip. "At least the engines still need me."

I think they should stick with the 3 episode arcs, this episode was hardly memorable for me. It'd be nice if Starfleet would build some more ships so Enterprise wouldn't be sent on all these menial missions.

Once again, someone beams aboard with a secret agenda and/or ulterior motive! *gasp* Shocking.

Yeah this was one of those "low-budget" episodes (along with the next one).. so it wasn't very good. I agree with the above poster that the episode wasn't good, but it wasn't that bad either. Can't wait until they start the next story arc though.

Both of your wishes will come about next month. After another stand-alone episode, there will be a huge 3-part Andorian/Tellarite/Vulcan/Human arc, followed by a 2-part Klingon arc. And the Columbia NX-02, which has been shown under construction a couple times already will finally be launched.

Meh ... although it was cool to see Leslie Silva again. I guess her connection to Coto helped her get that role. I wonder if all that not-so-subtle hinting that she should be on the show will actually lead anywhere.

At least the episode didn't suck, but it wasn't good either.

Meh. I would've been better off watching Joan of Arcadia. Still, one mediocre episode after 6 really good ones is forgivable.

I'd add a small dash of "The Tholian Web" in there too.

Yeah, pretty m'eh episode. I had a much greater adventure trying to watch it: the UPN affiliate seems to have major problems broadcasting in HD, it couldn't go more than a few seconds without the sound dropping out. (A later Simpsons didn't have such problems on the same channel on the same night).

I didn't realize I saw this until I read the thread.

But I'd have rather watched this than any reality show, or most anything else out there.
