Why the little tilde on the "o" in Vox doesn't make any sense to me either. It's pronounced exactly as it is spelled. Weird.
What about the "good Borg" from the queen on last season. I wonder if she will show up?
Once again I'll say Terry should be running the entire of streaming new Trek Then just confer with Kurtzman so that his 32nd century & Terry's 25th century stuff don't clash in the small things about characters like one saying this character did that & the other saying something else. This is 4th season Enterprise all over again bringing in a new person (Manny Cotto) to run the show who does a whole lot better than who ever was doing it in the previous seasons.
I'm actually getting mad at how good this season is. 2 completely wasted seasons and now it's cancelled after seeing a glimpse of what could have been.
I was starting to suspect it was the Borg earlier in the season. The voice whispering the line "connect us" started to point me in that direction and the hints sprinkled in after that seemed to confirm my suspision. So as you can imagine, I was very happy with the reveal, and soo pleased with myself I nearly dislocated my shoulder patting myself on the back😁
The Borg was no surprise. This season is a ghost of TNG. Oh, we got all the nostalgia up to Season 6 and then it took a turn for the worse starting with Episode 7-9. This is NuTrek Kurtzman well hidden. Oh, I will finish it. I have no choice. The Picard from TNG wouldn't care about protocol and would look for a way to save his son. I should have kniwn, better, at my age, but I was swept up in the euphoria of nostalgia. I am very upset, nay, angry!
Hands down the best episode of Star Trek in 20 years.
Man enterprise D looked absolutely magnificent on my 120” screen and I sit only 10’ from it 😂
I would absolutely freak out if Janeway rolls up next season in the Voyager 😱
This series will occupy a very unique place in Star Trek franchise history. First 2 seasons hemorrhaging fans by the thousands. Season 3 redeems the series to the point we are sorry to see it go. I’ve never been happier to be a fan boy. End of an era.
The Borg have been hinted at all season long and it was still a twist. It blew my mind.
This is the first of your videos I’ve seen, but it won’t be the last! Fantastic video!
I keep thinking of the idea of Geordi restoring the D for 20 years. He’s walked the halls and stood on the bridge, alone or maybe with his daughters, for decades. The scene with everyone together on the bridge again was moving enough (tears!), but then thinking of Geordi living with all of these memories on this ship for 20 years as he restored it… I broke, but in the best way. This is Capital-S- Storytelling.
Another great review. What a story. I’ve been watching this epic saga from the very beginning. Stupendous.
Super shaky cam engaged! For me at least, Borg is another four letter word for dumb and done far too often. Anyway, the final nostalgic scenes with the Enterprise-D were certainly cool.
I have no idea how they’ll resolve this story. Think what a big pickle they are in – The Enterprise D and crew up against the whole fleet as borgs. OMG. But we know the’ll pull it off, somehow!
Matalas took the fan service, dialed it up, and still made a great story with lots of great moments. The last episode has to be supersized, right? I don't know how they can wrap it all up in 60 minutes.
i would like Picard season 4 with the same writers, directors and producers of the season 3!!!!!!!… + we want the TNG actors too please. TYVM

Sometimes they get it right. 2 things worry me, Shaw and Jack. Damn the shaw scene, and Jack better be ok, love him.
Why! They killed Shaw by Borg. What a mean dead for him.
And OF COURSE the Borg could do what they did…trying not to spoil in comments, but OF COURSE they could.
The way in which they made just the turning on of the light on the bridge symbolic by sheer contrast was genius.
I get a lot of flack for hating woke trek. Every movie and TV show that gave me a little joy and hope was slaughtered by wokism. This episode felt so right to me.
I wish this was season 1 of Picard. This is what all fans of TNG wanted to see. The crew back together again on one more adventure. I almost expected Data to start scanning for life forms in that little tune…
the minute last episode T'Veen got killed, i have a feeling there's not going to be a new spinoff with this ship, and what happened to Captain Shaw….
I know this is nostalgia but it is so good, perfect kind of nostalgia, what we wanted in the first place.
I've loved this season (I'm a trekkie who didn't like the NEW trek) but the last couple of episodes I find it weaker than the set up.
The episode where they were running around the Titan chased by Vadic and cronies was Lame (The Data moment was amazing!)
I'm hoping they'll stick the landing even if it is a bit wobbly right now
It was fantastic. I was hoping that they tont bring back the borg again, because I thought it would be silly. But they did it in a really great way.
I wonder what show you could be talking about at the start haha
After 2 junk episodes which were disappointing and killing the story. The ep.9 is back to the right track. Everything is exciting excepts that they said the Enterprise D is an analog ship. In fact, there's no star ship is analog in their century. Even not in our real world as of today in I.T. If they really want to make up a reason. I think it is better to say that the enterprise D has already been decommissioned and due to there's no hardware upgraded. Thus, there's no linkage to the latest all-in-one-controlled system. That would be more reasonable.
Can we have a different villain than the borg, what a big letdown this episode was.
Man I would love to see Shaw come back…. but judging from what we saw…. he's dead Jim.
I am really hoping Soji took Kestra to her home planet. After the atack on the recruiting center. And Kestra is being cared for and protected by Data's family. After all Kestra thinks of Soji as a sister. Data would have been one of Kestra 's many God parents. Had her parents known Data was alive. That's were I think she is. With Data's kids. Data's children can't be organically assimilated
That is why her parents aren't worried. But aren't saying anything.
I think she is with Soji and all of Data's children. I hope so anyway.
Considering the current woke college generation, Borg assimilation explains a lot of what's going on.
Anyone else get SKYNET vibes from this episode? Especially listening to the foolish rhetoric from Admiral Shelby about how "wonderful" this Borg-like system was going to be for the Federation. Just like SKYNET, we all know that it is going to go wrong and that it was a bad idea from the start yet people went on championing how great SKYNET was going to be for mankind. 😂
When The Borg signal went off and people started getting assimilated, it just reminded me so much of Terminator 3: Rise Of The Machines when they activated SKYNET to try and kill the "virus" only to find out that SKYNET was the "virus" all along. It was software, in cyberspace. Slowly infiltrating everything with a computer-chip worldwide for months or even years. Sound familiar?
Now, not only is all of Starfleet under the age of 25 all Borg, but anyone in the entire Alpha Quadrant/Beta Quardrant on every ship, every space station, every planet, every moon under the age of 25 that has used a transporter on a Federation ship is now BORG.
Think about that………………………🤯
THANKS for this!!!
