Junior Grade, but a Lieutenant nonetheless. he did see the koala when he stopped breathing after almost drowning in the second season finale, i think maybe, the first time we see him die? him dying a lot and coming back seems to be a bit, tho, like the sword guy stuff but idk whatever outside of normal time entities are at play know he's going to be important someday, or something,

not to worry, Starfleet has a group accidental death and dismemberment policy with Hyperdimensional Space Koala Mutual Insurance it's hard to file claims sometimes and their customer service kinda sucks but you can't argue with results

One of my many disappointments with Picard S2 is that it has a lot of really cool moments and ideas that, in isolation, make it sound like it might be an interesting show. I want to watch the show where the gaps between all the cool moments don’t suck.

I want to watch the show where the gaps between all the cool moments don’t suck. It suffered from the same fate as Season 1, ironically, where as you said it was a bunch of really cool and interesting moments strung together with absolute unwatchable dogshit that didn't really amount to anything in the end. Both seasons also seemed to actively hate the idea that they were even Star Trek shows to begin with. Just fundamentally repulsed by their own nature and by extension felt like they hated you for watching them.

I was actually enjoying Season 3 in spite of myself until the Borg Cum plot twist dropped and Matalas just opened his skull right up and showed off his big fat Gen X Boomer brain for all the world to see. He really is the Ernest Cline of television, I swear to god, and I mean that in the most negative way I could possible connotate it.

Picard's a badass who kills Dukat in hand-to-hand combat and blows up the changelings and the borg! And Data's there, and Riker's there, and Geordi's there, and Dr. Crusher is there, Worf's there too! And Boobs I mean Troi and Seven of Nine are there also, I guess! Woooo!

There was plenty good stuff in Picard, it’s amazing how much less than the sum of its parts it ended up being. Hey remember how Wesley Crusher ended up being a loving Time Lord for no reason?

I’m telling you that scene only exists because they forgot to write an ending to the whole ‘Dr Soong’s daughter’ plot so they just filmed something quickly

Wesley was always a Time Lord, and given the shitshow that was S2 production I don't begrudge Goldsman going 'gently caress it, hey Wil you know we said we didn't have a part for you, actually how about it: 30 second scene, we'll film it literally outside the Paramount costume dept so it'll take 5 mins tops'.

Despite him “show-running” Picard S2, I still can’t bring myself to entirely dislike Akiva Goldsman. He was right to auto-pilot that tire fire in favor of focusing on SNW.

Honestly, same. He seemed to know almost immediately after Matalas bailed on it that Season 2 was unsalvageable and SNW was where the real talent and drive was, so he seemingly just showran Picard over Zoom calls from Toronto and didn't give a poo poo what the upjumped Starbucks baristas Terry hired to write and direct that crap were doing day-to-day as long as they didn't go over their allotted $40 budget so that Terry still had enough money left to rebuild the D Bridge for the eight hours they were gonna shoot on it one day and then demolish it the next.
