Star Trek: Picard

Star Trek: Picard was much better than I expected. Of all the characters throughout the Star Trek franchise, Picard would definitely be on the Mount Rushmore of most beloved characters so Trekkers were worried about ruining the legacy of the character. I know some people didn't enjoy the first 2 seasons that much, most did but some did not. Almost everyone liked the third season because of the nostalgia of all The Next Generation characters reunited. I actually really liked all three seasons. Patrick Stewart doesn't miss a beat as an aging Picard and the show has a lot of solid supporting characters to make the show that much better. Definitely would recommend to any Trekkers out there or just sci-fi fans in general.

Everything about this show was truly enjoyable to me. All the characters that I grew or/and old watching on TV showed up on the screen one after another. Picard is getting old but before Patrick Stewart ends up dying I want to see more seasons of this show. The show admittedly started off slow but but it got better every season. Season 3 was absolutely amazing and the last episode of the last season was made in a way it gets stuck in your head for good. Specially the ending was sad and funny at the same time. The character development in the show however was next to none since the characters picked up where they left off.

After fun but uneven seasons one and two - during which I was glad to see Q - Star Trek: Picard really takes off when it gets the gang back together for season three. Their chemistry is what make it all work back in the day, and it really pays off now to see them all together again.

Fantastic supporting cast in Michelle Hurd and Burton the Younger et al, and of course some well-earned cameos from familiar faces. Some viewers will gripe about a nostalgia-grab - but who cares: I'm just grateful to see my ol' pals back on the bridge doing what they do best.

I've lopped off a star each for seasons one and two, which were all up just a tad disconnected and humourless, but season three is Trek to the core: fun, well-scripted, slightly ridiculous and very good-hearted. Glad it's here.

I watched season 3 over 2 days, I paused the episode if i was distracted by my wife. I rewound the episode if I missed something (I'm as old as Picard, give me a break). Loved that all of the next generation (NG) characters were involved and had grown into their roles and brought with them their own back stories of who they had grown to be since NG.

Loved 7 of 9 (Anneka), I'm more in love with her now rather than in lust with her while with Voyager (that's a compliment, I think/hope) and with her new love interest could create another series. Reicher is more relaxed in his role and Worf blew me away with his wit and style, (I want a beard like his). Jordie surprised me with his big blue eyes, I thought the script was weak when he showed a yellow streak. Bring back Scotty!

After 30 years of torturing with some half-baked experiments the real Star Trek emerged! No-one, literally no-one is able to replace iconic Picard and his crew. Finally, in the third season they've gathered all of them (including Seven of Nine from Janeway's ship) in an big adventure across galaxies. Fine story and same old feeling of sense and wisdom which was adorned in 90s show are here again, including magical music and blue "star trek" fonts (ending credits of the 3rd season). That and those crew is legandary and timeless. Hope they will continue in these star trek for many more episodes.
