Sci Fi Wire has posted a brief interview with ENT's chief engineer, Conner Trinneer, in which he talks about ENT, his character 'Trip' Tucker and his first convention experience in Portland, Oregon.
"I think the character's probably pretty easy to write for... He's sort of ... the sarcastic, foot-in-mouth guy. And I think that, out of the gate, there were a couple of episodes that were written directly with my character's having the main story around him. And they've gone over pretty well. Hopefully that will happen more often."
On his first appearance at a Star Trek convention, in Portland, Oregon: "Walking in, ... there were almost 400 people there, and when I walked in, man, they stood up. ... You are there with people who are really into you. Really into the show and really passionate about it. And that's kind of cool. And it's the kind of thing, where, I swear, man, you go down the line, there's a rainbow of types of people there. ... I think it's one of those things where, if you're into it, you have a connection to other people. And they have the luxury of coming together once a year, per location, and sharing the love."
