Bumped for cuisquemondi.

Has anyone seen the cutest StarTrek.com banner?

That's adorable!!! Is it still on display?

There are a whole lot of banners for the site that come up randomly everytime you hit refresh or go to a new page. So it'll show up eventually.

Poor Porthos- can't imagine what it must have been like for him during the events at the end of Azati Prime. At least the crew knew what was going on; to Porthos, it was just fire , loud noises , his human friends panicking, and having no fricking idea where Archer went.

I hadn't even thought of that. I mean, Porthos was probably still safe in Sick Bay with Phlox (after all, Sick Bay is one of the last places you want destroyed in a firefight), but yes, he shall be one seriously messed up doggy.

Poor Porthos. Maybe Phlox's other animals will comfort him somehow, or at least give him some company. Let's hope animal psychiatry is advanced in 2153 because the little guy is going to need it.

I guess Porthos made it okay, since he's at Archer/Quantum's table begging for scraps. I wonder though, if the same beagle that "plays" Porthos is also in the Benadryl ad with the energing flower garden that turns into the Benadryl package. Could be a littermate.

Color me "shocked", I never knew.
See what you can learn at TWoP.

And cats can be trained to use the toilet.

OK, I wll take the opportunity to toot my own nominating horn, here. It was the only Enterprise nomination I could really make in good conscience!

Porthos didn't win, though. There's always next year.

There was a clip of the cutest beagle in the universe in the upcoming season promo for the show! I got more excited seeing a tail-wagging Porthos than any human/oid!

But where is Porthos? He hasn't been spotted since Archer/Quantum came back from saving the world.

Oh, my God- I hadn't even noticed! No!

Soval probably was asked to let Porthos out, so he cycled the airlock.

Maybe Phlox fed him by mistake to some of his creatures? ha I actually like Porthos better than Quantum.

He probably ran away from Archer when they came back to Earth. See, Archer was ignoring him, even T'Pol treated him better

Have we seen the inside of Archer's quarters lately?

Actually no. He had been on Vulcan doing his wannabe Vulcan moves.

If we're lucky, Porthos was on Vulcan too, studying sehlat behavior for the next time Quantum's late with the food.

Bwah! Anyone know how to get candy cane fragments out of your keyboard?

Well, when Archer got back from the whole destroying Xindi weapon/saving Earth/correcting Nazi timeline thing, he did tell Phlox that that would be the last time the Doctor would have to care for Porthos.

Maybe Archer left his dog on Earth during their stay.

I don't see why he'd take Porthos into the dangerous, potentially deadly Expanse, but then leave him behind for the happier normal space exploration he expected to be doing this season.

I think Porthos is sitting around in Archer's quarters, waiting for a camera to show up and tell us he's there.

I agree with Cleo on this one. Also, Archer was lying to Phlox because he was on Vulcan for a little while and someone had to take care of Porthos while he was gone, and I'm guessing it would be Phlox.

True, but Archer's changed and no longer thinks of his mission with the bright-eyed optimism of bygone years.
During "Home" he stressed how space isn't the purely explorative place he thought is was; how space is full of dangerous, unpredictable creatures and how he, his crew and his ship wasn't prepared.

Slarkees, Archer mentioned a lot of things in Home, all of which disappeared into the Mists of Continuity when the episode ended.

Porthos nearly died in "A night in Sickbay" because Archer brought him down to the planet of ridiculously easy to offend people. Archer's going to choose now to think that it's a bad idea to bring Porthos?

Yeah, don't get me started on the haaaaaaaaaate because the... it... the... flames... flames... flames... on the side of my face... breathing... breathless... heaving breaths...

Maybe Porthos had to marry some bitch to get his mother out of a puppy mill. He's off meditating somewhere now.

Noooooo!!!!!!!!! Porthos is WAAAAAAAAY better than turning into P'orthos!

Why was Porthos ill in "A Night in Sickbay?" Did it have anything to do with the locals?

(Sorry, keckler.)

Archer took Porthos with the away team down to the planet-of-ridiculously-easy-to-offend-people and Porthos caught some disease and was very ill, and they didn't know if he would make it, but while he was there, he peed on some sacred tree, and the people got really really offended. Archer was offended that they cared more about their tree than about Porthos's health, and refused to apologize until the end of the episode when he had to perform this weird ceremony with pieces of the defiled tree (which wasn't all bad because he did it shirtless).

A recurring theme in today's posts. Shirtless Archer is good, but Porthos is worth two of him.

Silent Archer is better than Shirtless Archer, and I believe Porthos is a PuppyKing on Earth somewhere, with lots of bitches helping him "climb every mountain" if you know what I mean. :)

I respectfully disagree. Nothing is better than Shirtless Archer ™.

Yes, I am shallow.

There has to be a Porthos spin-off we can pitch folks. Maybe "Porthos, Dog Star "?

Only he's smart enough NOT to get pregnant on a First Contact! =)

Skategrrl, you may be correct. I had a nightmare about Archer night before last and it tainted my waking thoughts all day yesterday. But now I am in my right mind, and I respectfully agree with your disagreement.

Porthos, Galactic Pirate: "This collar was a gift from the Queen of My Tail. Do you disagree, puppy?" Thoughtful glare as he bares his cute puppy teeth.

Seducing humans with his cuteness then enslaving them to mine for bones to chew. It's a ratings boost, people.

Silent shirtless Archer?

At least we know he is still alive.

And the rub-my-belly-rollover was too cute.

Now we also know that he is actually...a she? Not like it matters; Porthos is still adorable. But what should "his" name be now? Queen Anne? Milady? What were the female characters in The Three Musketeers?

How about Constance? ( He's even cuter than Raquel Welch.)

And why, whenever we see Porthos and Archer together, does Archer have to make a disparaging comment about the poor pup? Why?

There needs to be a spinoff with just Trip and Porthos. ( And Phlox, of course.)

That's exactly what I thought! Ass. Hole.

I hope Porthos is plotting a mutiny. "Archer is always talking trash about me, and giving me cheese till I get the runs, and he's such a dumbass he doesn't even know I'm female!" All hail Captain Porthos, Spacebeagle!

Can't recall Archer ever saying nice things about anyone since they came outta Xindi space...

I think I can forgive Archer for saying Porthos has a big appetite. I love my dog, and I tell people he's fat all the time. He is, and I'm fairly sure he doesn't mind my telling people. What's unforgiveable is the lack of attention Archer pays to him when he should. Like when he came back from the dead *again* and didn't even say hello to Porthos.

Difference is, you probably say it most of the time in good humor. The comments Archer's made about Porthos since Season 3, at least (Similitude definitely) have been totally without good humor. They sound like he's complaining about Porthos, and not in a good-natured way. That may be Bakula's fault more than the writers, but still....

Yeah, I definitely got the idea that the comment was supposed to be good-natured, but since Archer hasn't been able to say anything good-natured about anyone in the past year, it came off as critical.

Yes! Call it Two Guys and a Beagle. I'd watch it. Phlox's menagerie can be recurring characters.
