Earl Grey 72: What Would Riker Do?

"The Best of Both Worlds" Alternate
Ending. 
One of the most memorable musical moments in The Next
Generation was the final seconds of the season three
cliffhanger episode, with the television screen displaying those
fateful words, "...To Be Continued." TNG's "The Best of Both
Worlds, Part II" opened with the Enterprise-D's deflector
weapon being  rendered useless by the Borg Collective. But
what if it had worked? The destruction of the Borg cube, along
with Captain Jean-Luc Picard/Locutus would have shift the show to
an almost entirely new series, led by Captain William T. Riker.
Darren, Daniel, and Phillip discuss how all the characters would
be affected by this change in circumstances, how the series would
have radically changed, and if we would have ever seen Sir
Patrick Stewart in TNG again. Join Earl
Grey as they explore a parallel universe where season four
set a new course for the crew of the NCC-1701-D.
