YMMV / Star Trek: The Next Generation S5E23 "I Borg"

• Harsher in Hindsight: Hugh's performance can be hard to watch knowing that he'll be killed off in Star Trek: Picard decades later.
• Hilarious in Hindsight: The episode's official title has no comma in it: it's not "I, Borg", it's "I Borg," making it sound like an Apple product.
• LGBT Fanbase: Thanks to Jonathan Del Arco's long-time gay activism and the fact that he has been open about his own sexuality informing his performance as Hugh, this episode has been a fan favorite among LGBTQ Trek fans who see Hugh's search for his own humanity as a metaphor for queerness.
• Retroactive Recognition: Fans of The Closer and Major Crimes will recognize Hugh as Dr. Morales.
  • He would also return to Star Trek in Star Trek: Voyager as Fantome in the episode The Void, incidental voices in the second Star Trek: Armada game, and Lieutenant Commander Miguel Diaz in Star Trek: Bridge Commander.
