The thing I like about Dr. Phlox is that he is so enthusiastic and cheerful. He seems very genuine and respectful.
The actor (John Billingsley) does a good job at portraying this without being too 'syrupy' - for lack of a better word.
He is quite the opposite of T'pol. Both aliens have been in space for a while and know what to expect. While T'pol appears quite cynical of the humans and their mission, Phlox seems quite excited for the humans and helps them in any way he can.

It's like he knows the ending of the movie and he is enjoying his friends watching it for the first time.
