Where to start, where to start? So much that I liked about the season finale of season 2 of Star Trek: Picard that I had to rewatch it several times to kind of get my bearings about who and what seemed to leap out at me. Was it the Jurati full circle, the well-hidden fan […]
It’s clear to me that Dr. Agnes Jurati is the MVP of season two of Star Trek: Picard. The good doctor, racked by self-doubt and loneliness, somehow stumbled into a relationship with the Borg Queen, who it must be noted shared many of those same feelings, and completely changed the dynamic of the Borg-Human relationship. […]
I’m not sure what’s going to happen in the last episodes of Star Trek: Discovery, but by episode eight of the second season, the mission to go back in time to repair the timeline to its proper place would seem to be completely out the proverbial window at this point. There are storylines going on […]
Wow, things seemed to be going off the rails quite nicely in episode 206 of Star Trek: Picard. Titled “Two for One,” we see Dr. Jurati lose her inner battle with the Borg Queen while Jean-Luc Picard suffers injury and mental paralysis after a nasty incident with a car. And while the gang successfully foiled […]
With his crew spread out all over Los Angeles, Jean-Luc Picard is somehow able to cut through the clutter and find “The Watcher,” who ostensibly is the key to helping repair the timeline and returning the Federation back to its rightful place, and kick the Confederation to the curb. Fortunately, or perhaps surprisingly, after plenty […]
Has it really been two years since Admiral Jean-Luc Picard and a host of allies, both old and new, redefined synthetic life within Star Fleet and, of course, saved the galaxy in the process? The answer to that is…affirmative. After two years, Star Trek: Picard is back and takes up after what appears to be […]
Man, there’s just something kind of magical seeing old faces re-emerge in new shows. Yes, they are playing the same characters we remember from ‘back in the day,’ but they are older, wiser, more grounded and like so many characters in Star Trek: Picard, carrying pain and sorrow with them. And so it was in […]
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. In episode 106, titled “The Impossible Box,” that moment, at last, has arrived – and I enjoyed how it played out. Yes, yes, the […]
I couldn’t help but wonder as I watched episode 3 of Star Trek: Picard, “The End is the Beginning,” just how many bridges Jean-Luc Picard had burned during his time in, and with his resignation from, Star Fleet. Oh, I’m sure it’s not that extensive, but it seems as we’ve moved through the first three […]
