I am a huge fan of Star Trek but I believe pretty much anyone would like this two part episode. Janeway can be annoying at times because of her stupidity, but in this one you see her at her best because she knows what the crew's end goal is and she won't give it up easily. But what really holds this together is not just the introduction of Seven of Nine, but the role Chakotay plays in helping Janeway realize how dangerous the Borg really are. But Janeway knows that the Borg aren't the threat and that they might be next if they don't defeat Species 8472 here and now. I agreed with Janeway's decisions in this and the cliffhanger ending really makes you want to see what happens next.

Furthermore, the ending introduces one of the most popular characters in Seven of Nine. If you have seen any Borg episodes from Next Generation, you would know that the Borg aren't your typical star trek enemy. They are relentless and stop at nothing to add their victims distinctiveness to their perfection. Not only that, but their vessels are VERY difficult to kill and right away you see about 8 or so Borg vessels obliterated by an unseen ship. As the plot unfolds, you begin asking yourself, how will voyager defeat this new enemy?

Solid 10/10
