ST- Picard Season 3

Post by dlbpharmd »

I'm greatly enjoying Season 3! I'm sure there are some out there who'd say this is only fan service, but as I've been a fan of ST for over 40 years, and I've suffered through many bad movies (Nemesis, The Final Frontier) and series (Enterprise), I say it's high time the writers give us (the fans) something we actually want to see.

Not sure how that happened. A full on discussion had already started before I jumped in

Liking 3 a lot. That's some nasty stuff happened in the past. Very very curious about Jack. I bet Q was involved.

And yeah, the fan service is excellent. I don't care. It's just great.

Holy crap! This latest episode .... man... spoiler below but reminiscent of the Last Chronicles ending. Nothing like a good TC reference.
Spoiler
And Data is back after eating up Lore!!! The way it happened was just like TC eating up Lord Foul the despiser

Totally agree! I've been enjoying this much more than the first two...for the first time in a while I've gone back to rewatch episodes. I really like what they've done with Worf, and Riker has been carrying a bunch of the show. I like what they've done with some of the new characters too, Shaw has been fun to watch. Really eager to see what's next...and if this continues to do well, would they change their mind and go for 4?

Yeah, you have to wonder why they are already saying this is the last season. Is it not doing well enough? There are so many Trek shows, so things must be going pretty well. Why would this one have to stop at 3?

I've also been enjoying Riker. It would have been nice to see him as a captain in his prime.

It would be nice to see what his duplicate has been up to, also!

They really need one more show in the works. This is the last season to Discovery and Picard. I saw rumors of a Voyager spin off of some kind... not sure if that would bring in viewers. But I think a USS Titan spin-off would be excellent.

That...was quite an episode 9...I was pretty riveted at the end. Not sure how they are going to get out of this, but I thought the episode was excellent.

Agreed!!! Was good to see Shelby again...if only for a few scenes.
Spoiler
Resistance is futile.
The last Episode is apparently a two part, which is good because I wasn't sure how they were going to end it with only one episode left.

Well... I suppose they'll work something out. Really can't imagine how they're going to pull this off. It seems unlikely. Perhaps it's the next phase of humanity.

Yeah, it’s pretty amazing. That’s some seriously imaginative writing!
Spoiler
Obviously, Jack is going to save the day. Can’t imagine how he is strong enough to do it, or how he could possibly negate or reverse everything that’s inside of everybody. But I don’t know what else could possibly happen. It’s not like they’re going to let humanity be Borg from now on. They could come up with a very cool way of separating humanity from the Borg, and yet retain whatever the hell, the board putting them, sort of as a next evolutionary step.

Spoiler
I think Jack will be like a virus inside the Borg. At some point he will regain his identity and use his link in the collective to reach out (with his crazy power) and undo the genetic coding they stole from Picard's body.
I can honestly say that this season I am intrigued for what will happen next at the end of every episode. Excellent writing.

Yeah, that has got to be the solution.
Spoiler
Not sure why the Borg need Jack. He didn’t need to exist at all. They used Picard’s altered body to infect everyone. Jack isn’t the reason Star Fleet is currently under their control.
