Shadow Blasko: FirstNationalBastard: No, they ruined the Borg when they introduced Hugh, and Picard was talked out of destroying the Borg because Geordi introduced him to Mary Sue of Borg.

Oooo... Solid disagreement here.

I think Hugh made the Borg even more terrifying, when it introduced you to the concept that the people who are assimilated are still in those bodies. Somewhere... buried under layers of torture and forced protocols.

Hugh is the abortion debate of ST TNG. Seriously.

Is it ethical to kill your enemy without mercy because they may be able to be saved? Is it an act of mercy to free them from the hellish prison of their assimilated existence?

I waffled on saying Hugh.

However, we can all agree that Descent, straddling seasons 6 and 7, where Lore took over part of the Borg, was definitely the beginning of the bad times for The Borg, right?



Mugato: FirstNationalBastard: No, they ruined the Borg when they introduced Hugh, and Picard was talked out of destroying the Borg because Geordi introduced him to Mary Sue of Borg.

Picard should have been court martialed and thrown out of starfleet for farking that up.



If Picard were leading the charge in the Dominion War, we would have all been speaking Founderese within a month.

The Hugh incident showed Picard didn't have the stones to live with it.

lakrfool: MFAWG: Totes watching 'City On The Edge of Forever' right now just because of this thread. TOS or GTFO.



"Edith Keeler...must die."

/wants time machine to bang a young Joan Collins

I'd hit it so hard, she'd think she was trying to cross the street.

wiseolddude: What was the TNG episode where the inhabitants ran around in white underwear?

"Justice".

It was basically a free-love hippy commune that wanted to kill Wesley.

What's not to like about that.

Shadow Blasko: FirstNationalBastard: You know, if Counselor Troi were flying the ship with Janeway commanding, they would have just crashed Voyager into the Caretaker array and killed everyone.

Barclay would have gone back in time and saved Troi.

/and with that... I am off to work for a few. Have a nice thread.

And by "saved" you mean "re-enacted the ramming of the Caretaker array with his penis playing the part of Voyager and Troi's emo vagina as the array".

/Did you ever wonder if the first time Riker nailed Troi in the poop chute, she did that whole "Pain... I feel...GREAT PAIN" thing like she did in Encounter at Farpoint, to which Riker could only respond

ManateeGag: cman: Sisco, however, is able to channel his anger in ways that no other captain has been able to before. That anger makes him the cream of the crop when it comes to bad-assitry and leadership

Janeway would have just blown up DS9 at the first sign of Cardassian incursion.

But only if she could make sure her crew would be stranded on a runabout for 7 years because she blew up the station.

Depends on which Picard shows up. Ahab Picard or Boutros Boutros-Ghali Picard.

Mugato: The Tribble DS9 episode was great, especially considering that it was a lot harder to composite shots from the new and original show footage back then. And Dax in a red shirt uniform.

"And women wore less"
"I think I am going to like history"

And her fangirl squee at Spock was great.

I don't like this list...

Yesterday's Enterprise feels like it's too low on the list, but the other choices are better.

And I was always a bit disappointed with the end of Cause and Effect because we never got to see Captain Frasier get the news about what had happened.
