Stephen of Borg 2 Posted July 5, 2005 So what are your thoughts about Mr. Reed? I really do like him. He has become my third favorite character after Archer and Trip. He is a very caring person that likes to mainly keep to himself and at times is really funny i.e. his T'Pol dreams on the episode "Shuttlepod One". He's now a favorite of mine.

Jack_Bauer 1 Posted July 5, 2005 I like him. He is great in Shuttlepod One and even though he doesn't get a lot of screen time, he still has some great moments. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike 5 Posted July 5, 2005 Yeah, I like the character of Malcolm Reed on Enterprise. I especially liked that they were exploring the relationship betweeen Malcom and Trip in some episodes. Too bad they couldn't have expanded on that some..I've enjoyed the Malcolm Reed character anyway in every little scene he has been given..'Minefield' comes to mind as an especially memorable Malcolm episode for me..

Spike The Trill 0 Posted July 5, 2005 He was cool. I didn't like him being a former agent for Section 31 though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mj 7 Posted July 6, 2005 (edited) I enjoyed his evolution as a character. I believe he was stand-offish at first, and that Archer perceived this, and so with Hoshi planned that birthday party which was the beginning of bringing him into more involved relationship with his crewmates. Click For Spoiler By the time Reed's past involvement with Section 31 catches up with him, and compromises his relationships on Enterprise, he is desparate not to lose captain Archer's regard, or his friends on Enterprise. The distant Reed who could at one time work with Section 31 was now a more open person, unwilling to lose the respect and freindship of his crewmates. He and Hoshi grew the the most ( developed for the better ) during the four years on Enterprise. Edited July 7, 2005 by mj Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ace 0 Posted July 6, 2005 Somewhere between like and tolerate. I don't really know how to explain why, but he just didn't grow on me as a character. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stephen of Borg 2 Posted July 6, 2005 (edited) I know you guys didn't really do it on purpose, but becareful not to spoil, I haven't seen the entire series of Enterprise, because I don't have UPN. The only way I can see ENT is with the seasons finally coming out on DVD, and I'm only half way through season one. Click For Spoiler In other words, I didn't know he had any connection to Section 31. Don't worry though, I'm not sad or disappointed that I found that out just now Edited July 7, 2005 by mj Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GhostofMajorHayes 10 Posted August 10, 2007 Totally hate him- even worse than Wesley! When the NX-01 was sent to the Delphic Expanse, and the MACOs were assigned it would have been far better to place all security issues into the capable hands of an experienced officer like Major Hayes. Reed was a character that had potential (e.g. the episode "Minefield")however, as the show progressed it became quite apparent that his character was unnecessary to the show. I did enjoy the fight between he and Hayes, but Reed still remained for me a character that was an underqualified and snivelling junior officer best left to his fascinations regarding T'Pol.

youbroughtheryouRiker 2 Posted August 11, 2007 Voted liked, though he was somewhere between like and tolerate for me. He became my favorite character during the final season, but almost by default. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TripLives 0 Posted September 9, 2007 Malcom was cool, my second favorite next to Trip. After all, he did invent the "Reed...er...Red Alert." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
