Do you think they should have interacted with the Borg more?

Maby yeah, but I kinda think there's been enough borg in tng, no offense, plz. I like the borg, but not too much of them

No, we didnt need the Borg to be overplayed. Like in Voyager.

Omet'Ikilan · **Sat Jul 31, 2004 10:41 pm**

thats true they were over used in Voyager

gul Lemek III. · **Sun Aug 01, 2004 6:25 am**

Yeah. Like every 4th episode had them...

they are the species that spans most of the DQ

Yeah, but the show didn't have to base on them...

I don't think they should have, because that's Voyager's thing

I think ANY villain is most effective when not used too much. When a villain or a particular race appears too often, it dilutes things a little. It festers laziness in the writers and things start having a real 'samey' feel to them, you know, familiarity breeds contempt and all that.

I'm a fan of Batman comics but in the late 90's, I think The Joker was used far too much. I appreciated him a lot more when he started appearing sporadically.

But getting back to Trek, I think The Borg have had their day. I don't know if it'll be wise to have them in another ENT episode or future Trek movie/incarnation. I'd rather remember them as they were.

Interesting question, though.

I don't think they should have used them to much, people might get bored, in my opinion.

More Borg in TNG? No thanks. They were in there a bunch of times. DS9 needed them more and VOY used them too much.

Yeah,they could have balanced things a bit more
