EnterpriseUK has added the title "Breaking the Ice" as the eighth ENTERPRISE episode, but does not include any other information.
Also, Ian Spelling in his 'Inside Trek' column for the New York Times has interviewed Scott Bakula. Here's an excerpt:
Given his track record, if he himself were the producer of ``Enterprise,'' what would Bakula do to differentiate the series from its ``Trek'' predecessors?
``I have looked at it a lot through those eyes coming into this,'' he says, speaking by telephone from his trailer on the Paramount Pictures lot during an ``Enterprise'' camera move. ``The questions I asked Rick and Brannon before I agreed to do `Enterprise' were along the lines of: `You say you want it to be different, but how will it be different? Will it look different? Will it feel different?'
``And the ship, for example, is different,'' the actor says. ``In a sense, being able to go back to the very beginning of `Star Trek' has given all of the different departments new gas in their tanks. They're all so excited about the new environmental suits and the new, regular flight suits, and the way the ship works and looks now. It's smaller and more like a submarine, not the high-tech sleekness you see on the other ships. I kept saying, `Will we see that on the page, too?'
``We will get to create not `Star Trek,' because that's already been created, but a new sensibility about the franchise,'' Bakula continues. ``That was my foremost concern. Rick said, `We've got to try to make it different. We want to give the fans ``Star Trek,'' but we want it to feel fresh and new and invigorating to them, as well as to all of us here.'
``That would have been my thing as a producer,'' he concludes, ``and they agreed to that before I ever got here. That was already their plan.''
