I find this offensive and yet I can't find a single reason it's not an improvement.
Buddy, that’s my wheelhouse.
That's a good wheelhouse to have
I only watched the first season of Picard, but everything I hear about it makes me believe I made the right decision.
If I can offer a counter argument to what others who've replied to you have said, in my opinion, season three of PIC is the single worst season of Star Trek to date. Nothing but empty, cynical fanservice, and the introduction of the worst sort of Scrappy-Doo character in Picard's adult son, Jack Crusher.
People like the season because it's getting the TNG band back together, but the season embodies all the complaints that were levelled at season one, justified or unjustified, but simply has some familiar faces. Slop in a trough.
Both Seasons 2 and 3 were spoiled for me and everything the spoilers described made me not want to watch the show. This is in contrast to spoilers due SNW or Lower Decks that made the shows sound far more interesting.
But I feel like the damning view is setting the TNG crew on the bridge and having it feel really off. It wasn't even like when Scotty drank on the holodeck version of the original Enterprise. The crew looked off on the old bridge in a way that felt strange. Yeah, everyone is back, but it really feels off.
Season 2 and 3 are better than season 1. But as a demonstration of how good it is, sometimes I forget ST:PIC ever existed. And I say this as a huge TNG fan.
The first season was ok, the second was dire and the third was brilliant. Don’t listen to anyone else.
Agreed. 2nd was terrible, 3rd was arguably too much fan service, but at least it was fun.
The third season is pretty good. Second started out well but then didn't know where they wanted it to go. I'd definitely say PIC overall is the second weakest of new trek after DIS.
I really enjoyed the first two seasons, the third was ok with some good bits in it.
Nah season 2 was a lot of fun. Season 3 tho…
AKA Not David Marcus.
That is one good looking guy, hard to believe he shares 1/4 of his DNA with Wesley. Unless Bev is not being truthful and this guy's biological dad is Ronin the Candle Ghost....
I can honestly say my favourite part of the Picard series is Seven of Nine.
I love that they took a efficiency obsessed, socially inept ex-borg into a cynical baddass, who I'd argue was the funniest character.
None of the three seasons particularly gripped me, but I enjoyed it overall nonetheless.
Still a better story than Picard.
