Controversial take but Star Trek Voyager.
When I was a kid I loved it, it was my favourite Star Trek. then they introduced Seven of Nine and suddenly it became a borgfest.
I liked it because it was all new alien races, stuff that's NEVER been in Star Trek before...and then they were like "no ones watching, lets bring in the Borg."
As I recall, the first introduction of the Borg was in the Delta Quadrant (when Q tossed the Enterprise there as a lark). So not including them would seem like a huge oversight considering their dominance.
This was also after First Contact came out, I assume that had something to do with it.
There was also still a huge host of episodes that had nothing to do with borg, aside from the occasional "We need to improve this technology because plot reasons, let's throw some borg nanites in it or something". It wasn't wholly focused on the borg.
Disagree
I have the opposite opinion. Voyager was my first trek as a kid as well. Upon rewatching it, the show actually isn’t great until seven shows up. It kinda drags ass until season 4.
I think you mean Seven of Fine
Interesting. DS9 would’ve been more to your liking then. The Borg were only in the first episode as one or two scenes to set up Sisko’s character arch. After that, it’s mostly new races, and more advanced development of existing boring races (i.e. Ferringhi, Bajorians).
