    Star Trek Star Trek Picard Discussion Thread

    Actually, there was like one line about Seven not getting monogamy and saying just banging whoever you want is good, but I dunno if that's enough to make her bi.

    Dude, the only time the Q actually fucked with species as a whole was All Good Things, and the way Picard saved humanity was by showing that humanity could think outside of the box it had shoved itself in. Like, there's only two or three other times noncorporeal, super powerful beings have done...

    I want to say that the full white suit plus white hat has been associated with slavery and/or European colonization somewhere, but I don't know if that's been a recent (last 20-30 years) thing or something that actually originated during the colonial era.

    First of all, claiming that the Klingons as a species are marginalized is fucking stupid when they control an interstellar empire and conquer the shit out of planets. Literally the only Klingon character who can claim to be marginalized in the TNG+ era is Worf, and that's because he got exiled...

    So... you haven't watched the series? You do realize that this means that you have literally zero way to know if you're being fed a BS idea of what the show is, right? You know, for a ship that was trying to get home in less than 75 years and with zero support, they wound up dealing with a ton...

    You do know that the Fenris Rangers also do stuff like set up planetary shields, right? That's how Vashti got their (used) system. Who's to say Seven wasn't involved in that? Also, Voyager did get itself involved in tons of shit. There was Innocence, Living Witness (the actual events, not the...

    Yeah, sure, but unless you brainwash everyone into believing those ideals, you're not going to have unlimited amounts of that available, especially not for a long term project that's literally interstellar in scale. And, as an aside, I'm kinda glad the show highlighted political dissent towards...

    No, as in "the Federation has legitimate grievances with the Romulans, and expecting people to A) support helping them without reservation and B) continue to support helping them after a massive disaster wipes out resources allocated for that is stupid." Like, the main deviation from the absurd...

    Some of those clips are super out of context, and don't accurately paint a picture of what the show is. And I'm not entirely sure that this is intentional, but Star Trek: Picard is literally the story of Picard getting over the fact that reality ensued for the Federation and meant he couldn't...

    The show that hated me personally was Discovery, so Picard is great by comparison. I'm also burnt out as fuck on Starfleet centric stories, so any other POV on the Trek universe is a welcome one.

    Star Trek Star Trek Picard Discussion Thread

    I've moved on from Midnight's Edge, mostly because they don't do a really good job of convincing me that their sources exist, but I will say this - Picard, for all its flaws, is probably the one Trek show with a mostly competent first season. Sure, there was stuff they could've executed...

    Oh's half-and-half, so I don't know what's going on there.

    No, she's . This was established in the beginning of the last episode. For all we know, her absence from Starfleet HQ is just covered under leave or personally dealing with a critical situation (which is true, ironically enough).

    Star Trek Star Trek Picard Discussion Thread

    Honestly, it made me feel real happy to see actual planetary defenses, even if it continues to make the Federation look stupid for not even putting in a tenth of the effort to protect their planets. Seeing a slightly upgraded TOS Bird of Prey was nice, even if it was just for one episode. That...

    It's a Borg cube. It's going to be the size of other Borg cubes.

    Star Trek Star Trek Picard Discussion Thread

    Like I said in the SB thread, I generally found the premiere to be solid, but one of the more confusing things about it was the whole "army of rogue synthetics" bit of the backstory, mostly because the show and the prequel Short Trek didn't answer why anyone would actually do that. One thing...
