It's a tribute to the greatness that Star Trek is. I have no words that can express the happiness the end of this episode brought me. A love letter to trek.

It was so engaging no pun intended I didn't even realize 50 minutes had passed. Adding new and clever layers to the Star Trek mythology. Using the universe, it's technology and it's history to construct a epic beginning to the season finale.

This is peak trek something I had lost hope in ever seeing again under the "guidance" of Alex Kurtzman. But I have been proven wrong this season and especially this episode. More Terry Matalas please!

NOW GO WATCH IT!

Terry Matalas, take a bow. What you have achieved with this season is nothing short of remarkable. I won't go into details about this episode, but what a great story! I'm sat here in tears, a 40 year old man seeing something I'm wanted since I was 11 years old in 1994.

Having not seen the final episode I have no idea what's to come, however what I'm absolutely certain about is this 'Star Trek Lecacy' universe proposed by Terry Matalas simply has to come to fruition. This man has brought the finest Star Trek since the TNG movie era into our lives and it must continue.

Based on the response of fans I sincerely hope this continues. What a show!

Maybe I am too much of a fan to impartial, but this season is just blowing me away! Putting the old cast back together could be considered nothing more than a cash grab, but it doesn't feel that way at all. It genuinely feels like everyone is happy to be back. This has been a continuous reminder that THIS cast was the finest in the franchise, hands down.

The Easter eggs keep coming, and I won't spoil them. I would not want to deny anyone the shear thrill it felt to witness them first hand. There has been a great attention to detail this season, far more than in the previous two (and they were great!), but it's clear that no stone shall be left unturned as this cast of characters go out on their final voyage.

I never thought they would come close to the opus that was "All good things..." but we are coming damn close. Thank you for reminding me why I am such a loyal fan.

Fan service is often a dirty term but this episode proves beyond doubt that it does not have to be. This is how you combine going back to the roots with going forward with a fresh, engaging and poignant story. You bet it services the fans - my wife and I literally cried and stood up in applause (hadn't experienced this with a TV show since Mandalorian S2E8) - but it does so without any deleterious effects for the originality. Star Trek creatives are aware that they messed up with Discovery and are now returning to what makes Star Trek so good. It started with Strange New Worlds but Picard S3 is really a tour de force in that effort. I'd love for the similar to happen to Star Wars instead of attempts to rehabilitate sequels. Way to go Terry Matalas and the crew, you've truly restored Star Trek's awesomeness for the next generation!

Probably the best episode of the entire series and a perfect buildup to what could be a fantastic finale. Literally the only way they can screw this up is if Wesley somehow saves everyone at the end. But in all seriousness, I really appreciate how they brought almost all of the cast together in such clever ways. Even bringing back an old guest star and literally pointing out the irony of what she was doing was genius. The writers deserve a ton of credit making such a great season, especially since following one of the worst ideas from season 2 which was not having it in space... I'm glad I didn't give up like I did with Discovery.
