I think this is great and anything I can see Patrick Stewart in, I will. I don’t share the opinion that Picard series was bad. I don’t see Picard as a one-dimensional must always be the same character. People change over time. And Picard has also changed. Like it or not.

Bring on the movie!

I'm OK with this, people shit on Star Trek Picard but I still thought it was alright despite the departure from more traditional Trek.

You know they have to use the bridge a lot more than one single episode. It was always part of the plan.

I have two reasons to not write this off:

  1. Picard S2 would have been just fine as a 2-or-3-part episode, and not a 10-episode full season.
  2. The first 4 episodes of Picard S3, watched together by themselves, become the second-best TNG movie (after First Contact of course).

If they were announcing Picard season 4 I'd just groan and ignore it. But I think the cast and crew could actually pull off a decent 1.5-2 hours of good entertainment.

@SteleTrovilo @USSBurritoTruck

We really need the follow Captain Seven series. Episodic in a similar way to Strange New Worlds with the option for longer story arcs where needed 🙂🤷‍♂️

We basically need more Jeri Ryan, in any context. And "Crash" LaForge should be there, she was fun too. Just definitely don't use the same writers from PIC.
