They don't have any lasers in their eyes, so they must think it's Star Trek enough.

the borg suits from TNG did not age well visually, especially now that we have HD, but otherwise Best of Both Worlds remains an absolute banger.

also the fact that Shaw completely misinterprets why the borg gave locutus a name--but it works so perfectly as an understandable interpretation from someone suffering the survivor's guilt and PTSD he does--is genuinely good carry-over from BoBW. I forgot the specific reasoning for it was actually provided by the borg in the episode.

i had completely written it off but y'all's comments plus a couple of youtube video clips made me give season 3 a go, and it really does feel as close to TNG as we're going to get in this trek era.

Just finished it. Man what a wonderful episode. Gave me a bit a euphoric feeling. It's so refreshing to watch a great episode of trek, and not know what's going to happen next.This last episode, Episode 4 of Season 3, was great!!
I didn't realize it until the episode was over, but it's probably because there wasn't any Rafi/Worf bullshit. Sorry, Worf.
I remember screaming at the end when there were lights on the ship when they were riding the wave. I WAS LIKE THERE ARE FOUUUUUR LIGHTS!!!!

That part was so cool. The little speech crusher gave in the conference room, about doing what they do best, and then them all working together to find a sciencey way out of a dangerous situation ("we've been here before.....this is what we do best") and then them pulling off that stunt and seeing the birth of new life ..very star trek, even if a little recycled it was fitting because it was what brought riker back to life.
And the way that this show handled "dead naming" with commander Seven was so good. It is how star trek is supposed to handle modern social problems, by using in universe themes to convey commentary on current day issues.
All of this is Star Trek
My ONLY problem with this...so honestly as good as that scene on the holodeck is, i love it even more because it points to something else in Trek canon... Wolf 359 was such a desperate fight that pretty much EVERY Starfleet officer of a certain age will have been involved in it. Sisko, Shaw... these guys are representative of an entire generation of Starfleet officers that was victimized by Locutus--the fact that it echoes in Picard's life decades later is probably the best choice they've ever made thematically.
There was a Season 2...and in Season 2 there was the friendly JaBorgi...so how did the events of Wolf 359 still take place if they basically re-did the Borg?
It was a great scene, but as usual, they forget about what they just previously wrote...even if Shaw made a dig at Season 2, it still doesn't make sense. Shaw said, "Forgot about the pretend Borg you heard about, there are REAL Borg still out here". Something to that effect.

i think the implication is that the borg have split into multiple factions, so maybe the other faction still attacked.

they presumed nobody watched s1/2 (like me) and just rectonned all of it lol
If only they would have STARTED here.i had completely written it off but y'all's comments plus a couple of youtube video clips made me give season 3 a go, and it really does feel as close to TNG as we're going to get in this trek era.
