Talk:Dear Doctor

Rumour

Rumour has it, that the next Star Trek movie, was to be called "The Apocalypto Frontier". Doctor Phlox and the crew of the Enterprise were to travel back to 16th century Mexico, to save the Federation, by stopping meddling aliens, from altering American Indian’s DNA, to become immune to the flu virus.

What does that have to do with this entry? About this and other Enterprise episodes, why are they all written with such short sentences like they were recorded by an 8 year old? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.151.26.12 (talk • contribs)

Don't be rude. If someone wants to write it differently they can. I don't see any problems with understanding what is being said. Dream Focus 04:30, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

What? Eugenics is okay?

My main problem with the episode is the whole euginics genocide that could be avoided. But no, because of scientist and evolution, and what? Top apex animal living/dieing a great evolutionary issue, but moving a slug from one planet to another lightyears away... no evolution issue then. Guess the top pointy part of the pyramid is a huge issue, but that wide area near the bottom where slugs go... no issues at all. 70.176.129.182 (talk) 22:25, 26 August 2012 (UTC)

Image of John Billingsley

The article included an image of John Billingsley, from at least 2013 when it was GA reviewed, until 2020. In 2020 User:Starspotter removed the image for no apparent reason.[1] I think the caption could be better but that's not a good reason to delete an image. I have restored the image.[2] -- 109.78.196.125 (talk) 05:50, 13 July 2021 (UTC)

To make the caption slightly more specific and relevant to the Production section, I changed it (from Billingsley saying he liked the episode) to instead say that he preferred the original ending where Phlox and Archer disagreed over how to treat the Valakians. -- 109.76.202.35 (talk) 13:33, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
