I'm watching TNG for the first time now and, as bad and boring as season 1 is, I really appreciate that everyone is more or less a bunch of professionals doing their jobs and not turning into weepy messes every other scene. How many God drat times did we have to watch Burnham choking back tears per episode?

What's the thread consensus on Picard? Just caught up and, while I do enjoy seeing Stewart in this role again, the show doesn't really work for me. Seems like they tried to Game of Thrones it up with a lot of pretty stilted drama.

they deleted the entries from the file table but not the data itself. data recovery people deal with this every day.

Lizard Combatant posted:I don't know guys, this one really stretched my patience with this show. We've had maybe 2 episodes worth of story and a lot of cheap drama filler. They've played their cards so loving close to their chest, possibly because they didn't have 10 eps worth of material, so everyone is just stalling with busy work. yeah, it just feels like this series has no respect for the viewer or their time. and the cheap drama filler feels like a CW show. it just sucks.

Lizard Combatant posted:I've been watching season 1 of The Terror (since I read the book the first season is based on, no idea what season 2 is since its apparently unrelated) and by 4 of 10 you are well into the weeds of the plot with a huge cast of characters, plenty of flashbacks and a lot of well dramatised exposition to establish a time and place that's probably not too familiar for most viewers, and that's a relatively "slow" paced show that's also extremely bleak. This looks sick. Going to check it out tonight!

They really do need install ad-blocker in that ship though. Having a bunch of holograms harass you as you approach a planet seems really bad.

zoux posted:“The massive success of Star Trek: Discovery's second season launch exceeded our expectations in both driving subscriber growth and generating a phenomenal response from Star Trek fans,” CBS All Access executive vice president Julie McNamara said. This sounds like mostly empty marketing speak. I'm not trying to say it was a failure, I'm just curious if we can actually judge one way or the other.

They haven't shot any of S2 yet right? By the time it's safe to do so Patrick Stewart is going to be like 82.
