Star Trek: Picard

oh, it's Baltar!

The rest of it...yeah i agree with everyone else. It doesn't feel right having filler episode in a short series run. It shouldn't be necessary and something i would have expected competent writers could avoid.

Bored of it now. i'll still watch it of course, wanting for it to improve somehow but it wont. And i'll watch the final series because who doesnt want to see most of the old team back together for one last mission, right? But i know that'll be trash as well. And if anybody still doesn't understand why we keep watching, it's because we grew up with proper star trek. Discovery, for example, has never been proper star trek which is why i didn't bother watching the last series - i dont care enough to watch it burn.

^ Yep. Can't argue with anything you just said.

Picard and Discovery are much better if you forget they are Star Trek shows.
 
Feeling fed up with this **** now. I’m almost thinking season1 may have been better than season2 cripes what a car crash. If anything less is happening and it’s being told even more baldly. I’ll see it through but it’s begrudgingly now.
 
I get the feeling they got these two extra seasons and were then told to film them back to back while only actually having one season of plot written down on a napkin somewhere. At least I hope that's the case (for next season) because this show has been all over the place. Very frustrating because at times there's a hint or spark of some of the old magic but it never gets close to being realised. At least in the first season we got a few flares which quickly dissipated but at least we got something. Any time something interesting looks like it could happen the show goes on a weird tangent.

Anyway, nice to see James Callis at least. Great actor.

Aye, nothing but filler ***** episode after episode now. Hardly surprising when the entire premise of the story is a 2 episode at best story stretched out into a 10 episode "season".


God help us in the final season, they'll probably dedicate half of that to Picards struggles in finding his long John's before bed

So I've not participated in this thread to avoid spoilers and such things. Just wondering if the complete season 2 is now finished and up on Amazon Prime? I prefer to watch all episodes back to back like I did with season 1. Cheers.
 
Says a lot about this program that a woman in a dress is the only thing worth talking about.

I can’t remember the last program I started watching and didn’t see through to the end but this is really testing me. The acting is woeful, the story for this series is abysmal and the sets wouldn’t look out of place on Eastenders. Genuinely baffling PS put his name to this garbage.

As for the women in the red dress, give me the nurse any day of the week. She seems like the only one that can act and she’s basically an Instagram model. Says a lot about the rest :o
 
I much prefer Season 1 (save the dodgy ending) over this mess of a season and that's like saying I prefer nettle stings over eating dog ****.

They've done nothing to evolve the story created in Season 1, wasted 75% of the season on filler and have written the characters completely opposite to how they should act.

Q - Set up a angle of him losing his powers then used him for all of 3 minutes of screen time. Well played :o
Picard - A shell of his former self. They've made him out to be a bumbling fool stopping to daydream about his childhood in the middle of a Borg home invasion.
Seven - Her whole relationship with Raffi confuses me. Asking her if she knows how to use a tricorder. Wut.
Raffi - The dumbest person in the Star Trek universe. Why would you trust anything she says or want her on your team?
Rios - Woefully used. A bit of side-story with the doctor but has done nothing to help them get back to the future.
Jurati - Proven to be an untrustworthy killer in S1 but gets no character development in S2 beyond the Borg queen takeover. Crazy facial expressions.
Borg queen - THE most dangerous villain in the ST universe.. It'll be ok if we leave her unattended on our only means home with the weakest crew member... Lul.
Dahj - Felt like they were setting up an evil maniacal android character similar to Lore in S1 which they quickly resolved in 15 mins, never to be seen again.
