10 Best Star Trek: Enterprise Episodes Not About The Main Cast
10. Carpenter Street
This third-season episode is near-infamous for reasons that have nothing to do with its plot. Jeffrey Dean Morgan, best known as Negan from The Walking Dead, and The Comedian from Watchmen, guest stars as a Xindi Reptilian here. The experience with the make-up effects was enough to torment him to the point that he wanted to quit acting. Not a great place to start.
In a way, the episode is an odd one for the fact that, in truth, it's really not a very good episode overall. There are some tired time-travel plot points that amount to nothing, with Archer and T'Pol struggling with 21st-century technology. If it were not for one element of the show, it quite easily would be a forgettable affair all around.
However, Leland Orser is the reason it is on this list. He is odious as Loomis, the blood bank employee who has been selling bodies to the Xindi. Delivering his line with a skin-crawling drawl, it's enough to make the audience cheer when T'Pol administers the Vulcan Nerve Pinch, and later shoots him with a phaser. There is no reset button here either. When the agents of the future return home, Loomis is left to deal with the police, shouting about aliens and laser pistols. It's a thoroughly enjoyable coda to this piece of human rubbish.
