When the popular Borg villains returned for the show’s first ever season-ending cliffhanger – cutting to a blue-on-black “To Be Continued…” card after Commander Riker orders “Fire” upon the Borg ship – there truly was a sense that this was “Where no one has gone before.” With Captain Picard captured and “Borgified” into a villain (and rumors that Patrick Stewart’s contract status was uncertain) fans were left in a state of glorious suspense as to what changes might rock the franchise during the season to come.
“Part I” was so drastic that “Part II” had a tough act to follow – but it resolved the storyline with a clever sci-fi twist and excellent special effects and production values. Season-ending cliffhangers would become de rigeur for The Next Generation – as well as most seasons of its spin-off programs – and the Borg storyline would continue through movies (Star Trek: First Contact), television episodes, video games and the franchise’s expanded universe (comic books, novels, fan fiction and more).
