"In Conversation: The First Crew runs about 93 minutes and features all seven of the series' principle cast members (including Jolene Blalock, who’s been somewhat reclusive since Enterprise ended), joined by Jeffrey Combs (who played Shran – Connor Trinneer has to leave about halfway through the conversation, so Combs replaces him). Their conversation, which is hosted by Brannon Braga, is fascinating. I don’t want to spoil too much for fans, except to say this, which will give you a good idea of what you’re in store for: Braga comes right out (about ten minutes in) and very candidly apologizes to the entire cast for the series finale. No kidding – that’s where this conversation starts" - Bill Hunt, thedigitalbits.com.
