Back in 2003, Enterprise aired an episode featuring the Borg! It was a controversial move among fans. The Borg weren't introduced until season 2 of Star Trek: The Next Generation--and event which wouldn't happen in the timeline for another 175 years or more. Still, the episode was based on the events of First Contact, creating both a sequel and a prequel. This week, Dan and Bill dig in on this episode! We'll discuss some of Regeneration's finer points and discuss some key questions: Was this episode was a mistake? Did the crew of the NX-01 defeat the Borg a bit too easily? Does this episode work as either a sequel or a prequel?
