    Third season is rough, the whole thing turned into a war on terror metaphor complete with justification for sacrificing your own morals because “damn it we have to, we’re facing an existential threat!”

      I was so hopeful when that was going on, that they were building up to a larger reveal. Like this was before they did any Mirror Universe episodes, so I was really hoping they’d do a thing where Crewman Daniels reveals that Archer’s moral compromises were leading up to that timeline, and they work together to set things right. Would have been the perfect commentary on where US foreign policy was going at the time.

      But instead they did space Nazis and revealed that humans in the mirror universe were always evil for no real reason.
