YMMV / Star Trek: Enterprise S02E023 "Regeneration"

Go To

  • And You Thought It Would Fail: Many fans were skeptical of the Borg appearing, given that this is a prequel series, but the episode ended up being one of the best received in the otherwise lackluster 2nd season, for strong pacing/tension and reversal of the Borg's Villain Decay.
  • Awesome Music: Guest composer Brian Tyler delivers some of the best incidental music since Ron Jones composed for the TV franchise (some of it reused from "Canamar" earlier in the season), giving the episode a tense and atmospheric soundtrack that's quite befitting of the Borg's inversion of Badass Decay, especially the theme that plays during the climax, the aptly named "Borg Attack".
  • Character Rerailment: People who were let down by the Villain Decay of the Borg on Voyager often cite this episode as making them scary again. The tension in this episode mostly comes from the fact that Archer's crew truly have no idea how much trouble they're in even going near the Borg.
