Favorite Enterprise review?

This forum is for discussing Chuck's videos as they are publicly released. And for bashing Neelix, but that's just repeating what I already said.

Has to be "Unexpected". Seeing Chuck tear into that piece of shit is fantastic and soooo cathartic.

In a good way, probably The Forgotten, though Damage is quite good too. In a cathartic way, Dear Doctor. I like him tearing into the BS about evolution and the PD.

I'm sure that's a typo, but at the end of that episode I might not have been too upset with Dead Doctor. It was a very good review.

There is no Enterprise review more memorable for me than "A Night in Sickbay". Love the way he tears into it and Duchess.

I think his Broken Bow review overall was great. I still chuckle at that one consistently to this day.

The "Unexpected" review was kind of vindication for me in a way. I'd actually ended up leaving a Trip/T'Pol forum over my take on that episode. Well, it's a little more complicated that that, but that's how it started, anyway. I forget how exactly it got brought up, but I mentioned how appalled I was at how the episode basically had Trip get raped and then treated it like a joke. This drew a pretty heavy backlash because a lot of Trip/T'Pol 'shippers think the completely unreasonable way T'Pol acts in this episode was cute, almost like she was jealous or something, and a lot of them didn't like to see what happened to Trip characterized as rape since all they did was stick their fingers in a box, plus earlier it seemed like he was kind of into the alien engineer when she was feeding him ice chips. But when it really came down to it, I think a lot of them didn't think it was possible for a man to get raped by a woman, or at least didn't think that should count as rape. So it was kind of nice to see that Chuck felt the same way about it, because it almost felt like I was the only one who saw it that way.

While "Unexpected" was a great review for the reasons you listed, TNG's "First Contact," "Up the Long Ladder," "The Quality of Life," and most recently Voyager's "Retrospect" also really impressed me in that regard.
