Actually, no... If you will remember, only the mother's genitic material was
used and Tucker was only a host...

And let's not forget that he was more or less "raped."

Is it just me or is there more beefcake in this series than in VOY?

I was all for getting rid of the Vulcan stick woman after the pilot, but she
kinda grows on you. I was a little annoyed at the continuing T&A factor in
"Enterprise." Then I thought, "Who am I kidding? There's always been T&A
in Star Trek. In fact you can't spell sTAr Trek without it!

And as for the theme song...eh...it's different anyway.

So far I'm giving Enterprise a thumbs up.

No, it wasn't. They pointed that out by saying the male was just the host.
The baby was all the female's.

I think they addressed this. This was the part where he was all concerned
about the lift having the rails too high and a child could fall out. And
the rails came to close to something else and fingers could easily get  caught.

And of course Mean Joe Cool truely KNOWS the ravages of Motherhood Pregnant
Syndrome why else would he say that our writers need to research the topic
and think it through more.

Don't know about Braga, but Berman's got at least three. Just FYI.
