Caitriona knows how to use her downtime well! Last night, she did a quick impromptu Q&A on Twitter, taking fan questions from an unnamed airport, waiting for her plane. Q What is your favorite part of Claire’s personality to play? A Her fierceness! Q What episode this season is your favorite Jamie and Claire scenes? […]
And so, the multiple threads that have been flapping in the wind are starting to bind, creating quite an interesting tapestry of a story on Star Trek: Picard. In this, the eighth episode, titled “Broken Pieces,” the story of Soji, the synths, Mars, Zhat Vash, and even Captain Rios, gains much more clarity. For what […]
At long last, Project Blue Book put these two fantastic characters, these strong and capable women, back in the same room. And I couldn’t have been happier. Unfortunately, their coming together led to a lot of unfortunate outcomes and more than a little tragedy – physically and emotionally. In the waning moments of episode 208 […]

As Star Trek: Picard has ramped up, I’ve been very interested to see what would happen when Jean-Luc Picard made his inevitable way to the ‘artifact’ – the reclaimed Borg cube.
