"A group of Borg are revived after a century frozen in Arctic ice."
I really liked this episode, maybe some people hated it because it seems like it's trying to force itself into the TNG realm. But I think it works well with First Contact. As these revived Borgs escape they send a signal to there home planet with coordinates of Earth, Archer estimates that the signal will take 200 years to reach it's destiny.
The Borg are a cool bad guy, I did get sick of them at some point in the past but it was good to see them pop up again. In this episode they start to assimilate Dr. Phlox, it would have been interesting to see him fully taken over ... but then I guess he would be off the show. They should get a Borg science officer, yeah.

was my girl borg queen in this episode
I don't think so.
A lot of fans got really mad when they said they were going to have the Borg appear in an episode of Enterprise, but it was a lot of fun. I like this one.
I think they made it work. It fit into the timeline fairly well.
The main problem with Star Trek is how from series to series, and sometimes even from season to season within the same series, there's very little consistency in terms of cultures and species they present.
That's why in the early episodes of TNG, the Borg are said to care nothing about people and just want to take new technologies. That's why they kill everybody. Later on, they are said to only want to assimilate people into their collective. Whatever.
And then we have this version of them that are all of a sudden so far ahead of the other borgs we've seen in terms of their technology and how they assimilate people and things... but whatever. It's a good action episode with a pretty clever premise.
