Description
"First Flight" is a Star Trek: Enterprise rewatch podcast designed to take you through a look back at Star Trek's fifth live-action series that aired from 2001 to 2005.
The podcast is your home for revisiting Captain Archer and his crew on board the legendary NX-01 as co-hosts Abby Sommer and Chris Chaplin discuss each episode of Enterprise in airdate order. This show will be released twice per month.
Each "First Flight" podcast will include production notes, a brief recap, and discussion and analysis of each episode. Abby and Chris will also highlight their favorite part of each episode (with their "Porthos Pick"), share some trivia about the episode, and rate each episode on a scale of 1-10 "grapplers" (Vulcan's Verdict).
They welcome you to follow along with your own series rewatch, and submit your Porthos' Picks, Grappler Ratings, and/or general thoughts on the episode. (Please note, contributions may be shared on the podcast!)
