I'm convinced Archer is just Sam Beckett from Quantum Leap, trying to figure out what he has to do to make the next leap and getting increasingly frustrated that all his ideas aren't working.
Yeah, but he'd be perfect for the badmiralship. So there are two people who happen to have extremely similar physical characteristics many decades apart - it's not like doppelgangers don't already exist.
There's no way Tennant's hair in there is regulation. Shit they wouldn't even give Ro a religious or cultural exception for her earring! I'm pretty sure it drove her to terrorism if I recall correctly.
It can typically, as discussed in season 2 or 3 when they accidentally end up in a parallel universe - but during the time war they closed off those paths or something? I dunno I haven’t watched those episodes in a year lol
yea it was the dalek that created the void ship, which was in the void between universes, so they weakened the barriers, then the cyberman followed the dalkes to the prime universe and used a combination of tech to fully break down the wall between universes, until the doc fixes it in the next epsiodes. at least they dint go full multiverse trope.
Michael's luscious locks were far more egregious than that in some seasons. I remember scenes where she is in hand-to-hand combat and her long hair is whipping around, getting in the way. No way that is practical.
Her hair didn't get long until some time after they'd jumped to the 32nd century. By then, I imagine a lot of regulations went by the wayside for the sake of recruitment. Though, I do still stand by your argument. Impractical to various faults.

less powerful version, since the tardis cant travel between universes easily, or other realities.

I'm sorry, I can only accept Star Trek shows that are canon in this argument like The Orville, or Galaxy Quest.
