- I was so excited for this premiere - Picard is one of the most influential fictional characters in my life. And at the time it seemed so promising. But I ended up with profoundly mixed feelings about S1 in particular. And I mainly blame SPS for that 😕 #startrekpicard
- 🖖 6 YEARS AGO #StarTrekPicard Season One Episode One Premiered! In "Remembrance", Sir Patrick Stewart officially returned as Jean-Luc Picard. The series would eventually lead to a full reunion of The Next Generation cast in Season 3! 👀 Did you like #StarTrek: Picard?
- He didn't want it to be a TNG reunion, but I don't think he really understood that the ensemble made the show. I actually really liked the new cast, but S3 (which I unreservedly adore) proved it. There was just a fundamental misunderstanding of the character.
- So, S1 I think was fairly good overall but left me ambivalent. S2 was an absolute mess narratively that still has some wonderful individual threads and character moments. And S3 I absolutely loved. Thank goodness for Terry Matalas.
- I kind of look at S3 like Last Jedi. I would rather not have started off with Picard where he was in S1 or Luke where he was in TFA (the Litverse & Legends remain my ST/SW canon) - but given that by Kurtzman & Abrams, Matalas & Rian Johnson created amazing stories that I love.
