Star Trek Picard

[blake00]

I thought Discovery season 1 was okay but there were many things that annoyed me. Season 2 was a huge improvement for me however that was mainly due to the additional cast members playing Pike, Spock and Number One on the enterprise, there was still some silly stuff (lazy writing plot hole things as usual) that annoyed me though. Season 3 loses those great additions so I fear it'll disappoint me again lol. My love of the Disco season 2 Enterprise content of course also leaves me super excited for Star Trek Strange New Worlds (aka the Star Trek Pike show fans demanded heh) as they've said it will be a more traditional episodic Star Trek adventure show on the Enterprise! So hopefully they can't screw that up too much... although there's some rumour (possibly BS) out there that it's also going to have a young bisexual Kirk running about in the show so read into that what you will lol!!

 

Back to good old Picard.. I've decided I'm not going to call it that anymore now. To me this show shall now be known as 'Patrick Stewart Goes To Space' (PSGTS for short) as there really isn't much Star Trek or Picard in it lol!!! I've been waiting for the 'Critical Drinker' to review PSGTS as I've become an fan of his after seeing his Last Jedi and Rise of Skywalker reviews on those cluster****s. Sure enough in the video below you can see he hates it and he talks about Picard himself being rather useless just like I talked about in my episode reviews earlier in this thread. Yes I know hating on stuff is kind of his gimmick haha but he makes good points that match a lot of my previously posted thoughts.

 

This is Patrick Stewart Goes To Space!

 

And this is Star Trek Picard baby!!

Here we go again, Season Two Episode One.

 

This was a little better and some of it at least felt like Star Trek, sadly it's the same people responsible for Season One behind these scenes so I don't have high hopes.

 

 

They seemed to have revamped the characters a little, they don't come across as the miserable emotionally damaged emos they were in Season One, Rios has lightened up, blonde murderer woman wasn't as annoying and the wood elf didn't look like he was about to burst into tears, even Seven smiled. Quite how they're all in Starfleet now is a mystery, I guess we're not supposed to think too much about it.

 

It was nice to see Guinan again although the scene she was in was pointless and added nothing other than a bit of fan service. No one got their head chopped off or eye pulled out so that's another plus, it's like someone on the writing team finally sat down and watched a few episodes of Star Trek. I don't know what the make of Picard, it's not actually him, it's a robot which makes Q's interest in him a little odd.

Lol I must be the only person who enjoyed season one maybe because I wasn't expecting too much. I've yet to see it I'll wait till they're all on Prime and then binge watch the lot.

You might be onto something there, I had high hopes for Season One when I heard they'd got a new show runner and that Stewart himself was involved, the result was immeasurable disappointment, this time I was expecting another car crash but it seems to be a little better.
