Jurati is such a hot loving mess. Her and Borg Queen are so camp. Her walking towards the city reminded me of Jason walking towards New York in that one Friday the 13th movie, but her possessed and in that flowing dress also reminded me of Dana/Zuul in Ghostbusters. The musical number was so ridiculous, though I would buy a jazz band in 2024 would have that song ready to go. She is such an amazing gently caress up I kinda love her. Like the more mistakes and gently caress ups she does the more I actually like her, I didn't really like her at all in season 1.

I fell behind on this thread and kept planning to catch up but just decided today to skip ahead and only read the last day's worth of posts. So I don't know if anyone's made a similar comparison, but Picard is giving me the sort of vibes I get from shows like Continuum or Dark Matter. Just a real generic sci-fi adventure. It's perfectly fine and completely unremarkable and I'll forget everything about it. Which is to say, it's a massive improvement over season one, but absolutely not what I want in a Star Trek. Big Mean Jerk posted:- I know they had to contrive a reason to have Spiner on the show again, but I kinda wish they hadn’t since this subplot with his daughter is almost certainly going to muddle the overall plot and not be resolved satisfactorily. It’s just too much to handle when you’ve already got the Q and time travel stuff going on. DaveKap posted:I laughed...

same at all this, except for the Mind Meld thing, maybe Renee had her guard down while Jean-Luc had his up, I liked the singing scene (weird that security didn't react, though), I didn't laugh, and I still liked the episode overall. There's a contradiction in trying to excuse the last Kore scene, which was executed well even though the premise made no sense: if Kore had never Googled her father because her dad somehow banned her from the Internet, it seems like it should have been harder to log on galenanorth fucked around with this message at 16:37 on Apr 7, 2022 |

My theory is that Not Laris is actually Q in disguise. Anyways, I think this episode was good. Plot moved, the episode was contained within itself, acting was good. I just hope they aren't planning to for Santiago to stay in the past with the doctor because again, he should be the new Captain boldly going and what not. I go back and forth on hating the Agnes plot and her being able to...hold back the Borg Queen. I've reconciled since she isn't connected to a larger hive its harder for her to do stuff and now that she is in total control, maybe it will be more even. Also that dress game on point his episode for the female cast holy poo poo.

If I ever write a story and a kindly old man turns up from nowhere to give weirdly specific advice, I'm going to have the other character go "Oh gently caress, you're a time traveler aren't you"

Laris dives into Picard’s mind and saves his mother thus saving the timeline somehow, and the show becomes this weird Lynchian uroboros where we never return to the hospital room.

HD DAD posted:gently caress it, that was a great episode. Goofy musical number and all.  It was fun. A little bit of a groaner that they're retreading Soji's story arc from season 1, but at this point the show is decidedly entrenching itself into into camp territory so it's not a deal-breaker. Loved all the bits acknowledging Picard's "everything" transplants in the doctor's office. Solid lol. Stoked about the prospect of Jurati causing a Borg apocalypse in Los Angeles, which I suspect is the real divergence point. Drink-Mix Man fucked around with this message at 19:00 on Apr 7, 2022 |

BTW, my latest theory RE: Laris is "original" Laris in the 24th century is just old Talinn continuing her mission to protect Renee Picard by protecting JL so he can fulfill the predestination paradox of saving saving Renee's life.

I take back what I said about an old man having better reflexes than a young astronaut because she was supposed to be very drunk and he did, indeed, have his guard way up.Drink-Mix Man posted:BTW, my latest theory RE: Laris is "original" Laris in the 24th century is just old Talinn continuing her mission to protect Renee Picard by protecting JL so he can fulfill the predestination paradox of saving saving Renee's life. However, they immediately broke that rule, which brings me to another thing about this episode I laughed at. 24 years this woman has served as a watcher with the strict rule of non-interaction but, oh, "this time traveler who has a complicated relationship with a person who looks like me insists he help? Yeah, sure, whatever."

So a weird thing the subtitles printed, during the scene where Picard and laris were talking at the bar. She curses at one point and the subtitles listed it as cursing in romulan.
