Trek Two Years Ago

These were some of the major news items on September 2 & 3, 2000:

  • TNG People Interviewed
    In a TNG roundup news item, Patrick Stewart (Jean-Luc Picard) talked briefly about Trek X ("It's shaping up very nicely"), Marina Sirtis (Deanna Troi) mused about typecasting and director Cliff Bole recalled helming 'The Best of Both Worlds.'

  • Kate Mulgrew Interview
    In an interview with the Star Trek Magazine, Kate Mulgrew (Kathryn Janeway) talked about her character's relationship with Seven of Nine:

    I think [the relationship with Seven of Nine] could continue to evolve very nicely in a sort of student-mentor way. [...] Seven will have so many difficulties in Federation space, I think. She'll need to find a different kind of sea legs, and an even more provocative way to show her humanity will be when this ship finally lands: who will Seven be when she has to finally and quite deliberately confront her humanity?

Tomorrow's Television Listings

  • At 8:00pm (7:00pm Central), UPN will be showing Enterprise's 'Two Days And Two Nights' at 8:00pm Eastern Time. Here's how the official site describes the episode:

    When the crew takes shore leave on the famous pleasure planet of Risa, Archer has a mysterious encounter with an alien woman; Hoshi has a surprising romantic rendezvous; Mayweather has a rock-climbing accident; and Trip and Reed go clubbing only to end the evening as unwitting victims of robbery. Meanwhile, Phlox stays on board the Enterprise with T'Pol to take his annual 48-hour hibernation and exhibits some uncharacteristic oddities when they have to wake him up after an injured crew member returns from shore leave.

    The episode will be followed by the first-season finale, 'Shockwave'.

    Starfleet orders Enterprise to return home when the crew seemingly causes the destruction of an alien planet they were exploring. Archer is visited by former crew member Daniels, who traveled through time to warn him that the Suliban are trying to sabotage Enterprise's mission, and the two travel through time to try to thwart the Suliban's plans.
