    I was hoping the "new" characters would bring a little more friction (   
   Military ideals, in a civilian like environment ). Edgier personalities..   
   But they have decided to stick with the existing characters Archer, T'Pol,   
   Phlox, Trip, Mayweather, Reed, Hoshi.. and give hardly anyone else even a   
   single line of script.
