Star Trek: Picard [spoilers]

[cybershot]

Separating talk about this series out of the main Star Trek discussion thread as not everyone in that thread has Amazon Prime or other methods to access the series as it airs, so this avoids spoilers being posted in the Star Trek discussion thread, and eliminates usage of the spoiler tag in general.

General rule of thumb, if you haven't seen the latest episode once it's started airing, don't click the thread. (as far as I'm aware this isn't an all episodes available at once jobby)

Series start date is currently just set for early 2020.

Trailer:

Misread that as star date 2020. Didn’t sound very appealing. Star Trek: Brexit

No doubt Britain is not a member of the United Federation of Planets either way and since currency has been abolished everywhere else the £ is thriving.

Britain is Romulus. Full of angry paranoid fucks, and destined to implode.

Son, have you ever kissed a girl?

This is looking great. I had a tear in my eye after watching. Argh, can't wait until Jan!

Love a bit of Jean Luc.

Maybe they should have waited twenty odd years, named a NASA shuttle, had an animated show, attempted a phase 2, and then used this as the movie franchise?

I'm getting a Wrath of Khan vibe. Not in terms of plot, but in terms of the characters and their age. One of the themes of that film was Kirk being old and part of the furniture and no longer in command.

Yep. I've just seen it for the first time and had a bit of a cry

I believe one can rent items as a one off from Amazon Prime? If so, I may have to do that.

I'm sold now. Love that he's retired to the vineyard. The trailer suggests Picard is not just going in for the sake of it but because he needs to be part of the machine again in order to Right a Wrong. I'll buy that. Past his salad days Riker still looks well bearded and affable.

In the wee hours SyFy Channel is rerunning old eps of TNG and (while it's still not my favourite - DS9 forever!), looking back on it, it's pretty impressive how dark it was getting, how early on... Picard had some times there, eh? Napped and nearly assimilated by the Borg, tortured by the Cardassians ... wonder if the new series will be spending time on PTSD and its effects on the mind?

 

[Tankus]

This... and season 4 of the Expanse with a bigger budget

Happy days

 

[Buddy Bradley]

tortured by the Cardassians

That crossover episode with "Keeping Up With..." was never going to work out.
