Notes

  • Rumoured to involve Trip helping an alien being, known as the Cogenitor, to expand his horizons, despite opposition from his people. (February 11, 2003 - TrekToday)

  • Guest star Andreas Katsulas played Narn Ambassador G'Kar on Babylon 5 and Romulan Comamnder Tomalak in four TNG episodes. (February 28, 2003 - TrekToday)

  • Principal photography on 'Cogenitor' ran from Tuesday, February 18 to Wednesday, February 26. (February 28, 2003 - TrekToday)

  • LeVar Burton's third Enteprise episode after 'Terra Nova' and 'Fortunate Son.'

  • Rick Berman: "[This episode] deals with a species for which three genders are necessary for conception. Although it might sound a little kinky, it doesn't come across that way. The episode focuses a lot on Trip, and I think that it's a very provocative episode that again deals with issues that are precursors to the Prime Directive."
