Star Trek: Picard

So started TNG TV show last night - Encounter at Farpoint, that was good!

It was also the episode where Riker met Data trying to whistle which i didn't remember. Picard had a stick up his ass, glad he mellowed!

You've got some rough stuff heading your way, but soldier through it and you'll only come out of S1 with mild PTSD.

Patrick Stewart had never really done much American stuff before this, and was a theatre guy who took it all very serious, he's gone on record about that though, he just took a bit of time to settle in.
 
I shouldn’t be reading this as I’m so tempted to watch TNG, DS9 and VOY again. Not sure I can cope with the potato vision on the last two though.

So you'd rather we have ships on screen going "pew pew" for no reason? I found it interesting that the "benevolent and mighty" Federation didn't give the changelings the cure after all. It certainly puts the Federation in a different light and the experimentation coupled with no cure gives the changelings a valid reason for their actions rather than just being butthurt over losing.

I'd rather not watch 46 minute's worth of basically padding. Loads of pointless events which added up to nothing much and the story not being progressed at all or in a very minor way. The space battles are pretty but do not interest me so much as good story telling and acting which this episode seemed to lack. Hopefully they will get better again and they were just trying to pad out the series a bit.

Other than them being found, finding out the motive behind the changelings attacks, finding out the people they work for are separate and control them, Jack appears to have telepathy, data overcoming lore to save Geordi’s kid, Tuvok has been replaced, the ship gets taken over. Yah, aside that it was all padding. Hardly anything happened at all.

Padding?

We got the full motivation for Vadic and the other changing motivation for what they are doing and finding out there is a higher power controlling them. Not to mention a lot more on what Jack is able to do, with telepathy and actual physical control of others.

Tuvok being taken over, so how high up do the changlings actually control Starfleet. We also got Data over coming Lore to help Geordie and also the ship getting taken over.

But yeah just 46 mins of padding and nothing actually progressed the story.

Yes you basically replicated @Washout post in a less amusing matter.
 
new episode was ok

really not enjoying the jack thing - actor and character are good but not really into the story with him and the never ending mystery story line about him
