Notes

  • 'Stigma' features the first appearance of one of Dr. Phlox's three wives, Feezal, only the second Denobulan to appear on Enterprise. (November 23, 2002 - TrekToday)

  • Seven-day production schedule ran from Tuesday, November 12 to Wednesday, November 20. (November 23, 2002 - TrekToday)

  • First official photos released on January 4, 2003. (January 04, 2003 - TrekToday)

  • Jolene Blalock: "They wanted to keep it along the lines of the actual disease. A lot of people walking around right now have AIDS or the HIV virus, and you wouldn't know it. So the decision was made not to have me look sickly. That helps eliminate the sympathy factor, and I'm really happy about that. It's not about feeling sorry for T'Pol."
