I'm curious to see how it looks in HD but I don't think I can be arsed to watch season 1 again, last time I saw some repeats it hadn't aged well at all imo (unlike some of the later episodes which are still sensational like the Inner Light and Yesterday's Enterprise). Maybe I'll just download an episode or two to see how it looks.
Q and the Borg were the lazy choice for TNG/VGR episodes for me. The Borg were initially genuinely scary and really powerful, but got overused and underdeveloped, pretty much like the Daleks in the modern Dr Who.
I remember the first time I watched TNG (it would have been about 96 /97 when they repeated the whole run in broadcast order on bbc2), those episodes building up to the Borg starting with the one where Q transports the enterprise miles away to meet them blew my mind. It was all so well done and that one Borg cube seemed
so powerful. Fast forward a few years and by the time Rick Berman and Brannon Braga had used and abused them in Voyager they just seemed like a joke.
On the aforementioned subject of the best villain, you can't beat Gul Dukat in DS9.
Fuck yeah. Great to have an antagonist with real depth. A couple of years ago I watched the last 3 series of DS9 again in the space of about a week and it was just brilliant. I'd love to have another series like that again.
