10 Star Trek Movies And TV Episodes That Enhance Picard Season 2

Any excuse to revisit this all-time classic of the Star Trek canon, and Picard season 2 is as good an excuse as any. It's clear from his interactions with the Borg in the second season's opening episode, and in his reaction to Jurati's attempt to enter the collective in its third that the scars of his ordeal with the Borg are still with him.

Picard season 1 saw him put some of his prejudice aside, but Q is constantly referring to Picard's "fear". Is the second season about Locutus of Borg finally being laid to rest, as Jean-Luc assists the Borg in joining the Federation? It remains to be seen, but it's worth revisiting this 2-parter to remind yourself why the Federation is still so fearful of the Borg.

The Battle of Wolf 359 had a devastating impact on Starfleet, Benjamin Sisko lost his wife and Picard struggled to reconcile the actions he committed while part of the Borg collective. Decades later, and there's still unease around the Borg, which leads to the Stargazer's undoing in the second season's opening episode.
