MODERATORS
Honestly, I enjoyed the portrayal of the Borg Queen outside the context of the collective. She got the sort of character development that I didn’t know I needed. And frankly, she was practically holding S2 up after they arrived in the past.
Then she got the villain ball and ran off with Jurati and my interest fell flat.
The Borg Queen worked as a character. She didn’t work as a villain. It was impossible to balance her being a galactic level threat against a crew that had no resources, and Doyalistly wasn’t allowed to deal with her until Picard had time to spare to concentrate on her.
