They are close enough to work with it. How much do I love that notion!
Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

I don't want to go to Spoilers Outright, because I'll get spoiled for other things.
Um, the rumor about Enterprise is that the finale, written by Berman and Braga, will Dallas the entire series. That the entire run of Enterprise was actually a historical holo-novel being watched by Riker and/or Troi, from TNG. IOW, none of it actually happened.

I can't imagine a more sincere way of saying "fuck you" to their fanbase. No wonder they lost 11 million viewers since the pilot.

Art Crawl!!!
OMG -- I read that rumor somewhere else (WX) too . . . a Newhart or St Elsewhere type ending.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
The thing is that it's actually been pretty decent this season.

It does explain how they are going to address the issue of having new style Klingons pre-TOS. Not that it's a GOOD way to address it.
Would it turning out to be all the fantasy of Benny in the hospital be better or worse? At the very least, it would have some basis in canon. Again, not that it would be any less craptacular.

Actually, they did explain the old style Kilingons a few episodes back. They were the result of an experiment grafting augmented human DNA onto Klingon DNA.

Ah. I had heard it was going to be explained, but I didn't realize they'd already done it (I haven't watched an episode since the first season).

The effect was also reversible, which is no doubt to retcon the appearance of Kang, Kor, and Koloth over the years.
