Also I think de Lance was referring to the Jack character when he said it felt like a setup for a spinoff.

I don't know how anyone can make it to the end of Picard S2 and not emphasise with Q being ready to embrace death

Yeah, he's talking about #StarTrekLegacy, the fake spin off show Terry Matalas tried to astroturf for himself to which Alex Kurtzman and the Paramount brass apparently went "lol no, get lost loser" to.

Death Wish makes Q dying feel really stupid. I know there's loads of retcons in star trek but to have an entire episode about how something can't happen and a conflict around that thing not happening be contradicted feels off to me

I kind of wish that #5 had been a little less "Boy I sure do love cricket" and a bit more "What the hell is cricket?" while still wearing the same outfit. edit: Where the gently caress am I, and how did I get here? A.o.D. fucked around with this message at 15:24 on Feb 3, 2024 |

I started Star Trek: Resurgence finally. I have 0 expectations, the setup has been okay so far but holy poo poo what’s with these “puzzles” where there’s a dot on screen and you just have to slowly navigate your cursor dot over to the other dot?

This is the thread for the series where one of the most terrifying recurring foes is a race of cyborgs that increase their numbers by transforming other sentient beings into cyborgs, stripping them of their free will and individuality in the process.

I think this is the show where a guy that had worked on the show previously became show runner and it got really terrible.

I dunno I liked that stuff because I thought it was a pretty good approximation of the beep boopin on the LCARS interface and made me feel like I was in a star trek I think the biggest fault of resurgence was going so big with the scope of the plot. Should have been a series of "episodes" with a scope much more similar to classic tng episodes, they otherwise had the vibe nailed pretty well, with the a/b plots and different crew perspectives. I would give it a 7/10 but the wasted potential drops it a bit lower and killed any desire I might have had for a replay Professor Beetus fucked around with this message at 21:43 on Feb 3, 2024 |

I refuse to acknowledge that Q cannot have his own show. Where's your imagination?! It's not like entertainment is a solved problem, there's always a way to make it work. Make Q human and stuck in a family sitcom for a season. You get all the goofy wit without any of the omnipotence and Q learns a human lesson every day. Post-Modern Family. I apologize for this joke.

I am still bummed that we didn’t get a bunch of “Q struggling to navigate the early 21st century because his powers are waning/limited” in season two of Picard. Q having to use public transportation. Q having to Google addresses and phone numbers. Q trying to decide what to order at a Wendy’s. Q playing Three Card Monte and getting bamboozled.

I'm still picturing something like a Prius rolling up to Guinan's bar and Q hops out and Picard's like "What the hell are you doing, Q?" and Q's just all smug like "I hired an Uber, Jean-Luc  " like it's the greatest thing he'd accomplished. Then he has to hit Guinan up for like $20 to pay the guy because he doesn't have any cash.

Speaking of Picard But Good, if they had to have a dumbass secret son who his mother hid from Picard and who is a (ugh) roguish han solo type, how much better would it have been if they did this. Change the show just slightly: Picard receives a mysterious distress call. It contains a code he only ever gave to one person: Vash. Jack being Vash's secret makes a million times more sense and actually fits what they wanted the character's character to be. Name the kid Robin as a dumb nostalgia reference.

But then you’d need a producer whose knowledge of TNG extends beyond Best of Both Worlds and Cause and Effect! I did think a better Jack alternative would be Wesley - somehow kicked out of Gary Seven’s Doctor Who wannabe gang and discovered by Beverly. Knowing her son has unique knowledge, and not trusting anyone, she calls in Picard.

Picard basically swept the TV Sci Fi awards at the Saturn Awards tonight, beating out Mandalorian, Andor, Strange New Worlds, and their various actors in multiple categories. This does not seem super valid to me.
