Since the day it was announced there has been no show I've anticipated more than Picard. He's been my hero for 30 years. I haven't been this excited since Doctor Who returned in 2005.

Thom12255 posted:I feel, from the trailers, that the Picard team hasn't been given as big a budget as Discovery did. Or maybe it's just also going to Patrick and co. salaries. Likely the latter. There's no way they wouldn't dump mondo casho into a Picard show. He's just more expensive than Walking Dead castoffs.

Yeah, there's plenty of bad TNG. But the highs are so loving high that we tend to forget about them.

nine-gear crow posted:According to All Good Things he actually married Leah Brahms, so either she got divorced or her old husband died... or Geordi really did marry Holobrahms and everyone is pretending she's real to humour him Maybe they uncoupled the heizenberg compensators and HoloBrahms walked off the holodeck? Family reunions are probably awkward.

There's no way the entire TNG cast doesn't pop in at some point. Frakes is directing several episodes and hinted he'd show up again. Everyone will come home, even if it's just for a moment. Except Wesley, nobody wants to see him.

Croatoan posted:I hope Gates McFadden shows up. He's the best twitter follow. She's become a super sweet grandma. Just a month ago she had surgery for a seperated collar bone and posted while high AF on painkillers and it was just the absolute best. I had the biggest crush on her when I was a kid. When I met the cast about 6 years back I started stammering and I could barely get a sentence out.

MikeJF posted:Genuinely they should have her in as the captain of the medical ship she was captain of in All Good Things. Because a) it would be a neat callback and b) Crusher should be Captain Crusher. She should be the head of Starfleet Medical, pioneering life saving techniques across the galaxy in her badass Hospital ship.

That looks terrible. The longer I watched the more Disco grew on me. I keep meaning to buy the deluxe Eaglemoss model but I don't really have a good place lined up to display that inevitable rabbit hole.

Croatoan posted:I have 2 Hallmark ornaments of the Discovery as one was a Christmas gift. I'll ship it to you free if you pay shipping. PM me if interested. I'm not an ornament guy, we had tons of the Trek ones when I was a kid but they got misplaced in my parents divorce. I looked for a pic of the EM Disco and the Disco Enterprise popped up and I also want that now.

I seem to recall the costumers for Disco explaining how expensive and rare the base fabric was on top of all the tiny deltas being 3D printed and kind of taunting cosplayers that they wouldnt easily be able to replicate them.

That was very good. I don't care if he's wearing 17 girdles and sucking in his cheeks, seeing Brent Spiner in the makeup again was wonderful. And that opening, shot of the ship hello old friend.

I can't wait to see how this plays out. It was so good that I had to call my dad and talk to him about it even though he hasn't seen it yet. Trek was one of the few things we all enjoyed as a family when I was a kid so he's pretty excited to watch it.

Binary Badger posted:There's also the aftermath of Unimatrix One from Voyager, when all those drones got together in Borg cyberspace to kick back and enjoy life as it was before being assimilated, and ending with a bunch of former Borg drones rebelling against the Queen's collective; maybe this cube took too much damage during a rebellion skirmish and was abandoned. I hate everything Voyager did with the Borg. Picard gets assimilated and he has life long PTSD about it. Janeway and friends get assimilated and three days later everything is cool.

nine-gear crow posted:Anyway, viewership numbers are starting to trickle in, and Picard's first episode was the most watched single broadcast in the history of CTV Sci-Fi/Space Channel in Canada. God only knows how well its doing on Amazon Prime and CBS Access if it did this well on a Canadian basic cable broadcast network. PStew does not gently caress around.
