  • Picard Season 3 - No Spoilers

    From Abbub@21:2/145 to All on Fri Apr 21 08:22:45 2023
    So, my main takeaway is 'too much, too late'. That's not to say that I didn't really enjoy it. As I've already mentioned on here, it was *much* better than either the first or the second (!) season. Having said that, I do kind of
    wish that what we were given in season three had been spread out across all three seasons. At a certain point, you start to feel inundated with cameos, callbacks, and homages.

    I think the effort to have a fan focused farewell to the TNG (and other shows) cast was certainly well received. I'm not sure it could have sustained three seasons but it did confirm an appetite for a type/style of Trek that fans would be happy to see (and perhaps may will do down the line) again. :)

    Yeah, I wasn't really advocating three seasons of what we got, but more three seasons of something between what we got in season one and what we got in season three. But again, I really enjoyed season three and I'm glad it went
    out that way, rather than continuing down the 'season two' path.

    Yeah all good, I am suprised they resurfaced what was a character seemingly concluded in Season 2...
