    If you can watch season 2 of Picard and still think it is bad and does not live up to the legacy of TNG you are lying to yourself.....

    Season 2 is some of the best sci-fi I have seen on TV for a while and a complete turnaround from Season 1. The writing is well thought-out and the characters feel much less two-dimensional. In exploring the characters further - they have found a lovely balance between rigid sci-fi and campy humour.

    Also can I just say that this website is in dire need of attention (the search engine,    Season 2 is some of the best sci-fi I have seen on TV for a while and a complete turnaround from Season 1.

    Also can I just say that this website is in dire need of attention (the search engine, the sign up process, the whole experience I have been through just to make it to this point). If you made the site pleasant to use and tightened bot security - the user reviews might very well become about more than just blind cultural bias.    … Expand

    Este episodio inicial “The Star Gazer” abre a temporada de uma forma muito boa. Mal posso esperar para ver o que eles vão fazer com o show este ano. estão sabendo trabalhar nostalgia e agilidade de uma maneira empolgante

    8.5/10, barely eeking out a 9 because I enjoyed it that much.

    So firstly, ignore all the angry Star Trek nerds on this board. They are talking out their ass and don't know what the hell they're talking about. I've been watching Star Trek since I was a kid. Started with TNG and went back to watch the other stuff too. Thoroughly enjoying the new stuff coming out as well. (Finished    8.5/10, barely eeking out a 9 because I enjoyed it that much.

    I've been watching Star Trek since I was a kid. Started with TNG and went back to watch the other stuff too. Thoroughly enjoying the new stuff coming out as well. (Finished Strange New Worlds before this, another excellent addition to the IP.)

    Firstly, the downsides to this series:

    - There are some minor plot holes but nothing you can't overlook. There's a few questionable choices in terms of the direction it all went but I think when taken as a whole season rather than bits and pieces, it was incredibly enjoyable.

    - There's also some times where you might ask yourself why a character doesn't do something they've done a million times before. (Might be thrown in with 'plot holes') I try my best to consider the overall experience. If it's enjoyable, the minor questions and concerns aren't as big a worry. Things happened because that's what was needed to nudge the story along. (A bit part of this is Picard's synthetic body. See: S1)

    - I am still unsure as to whether I like what they did with the Borg as a whole. I don't want to ruin or spoil anything so just watch and judge for yourself. They may do something with it in Season 3 and if so, my judgement may shift.

    NOW, the good!

    - It effectively puts a capper on HALF A DOZEN different threads from Star Trek. Mostly TNG but other ones as well. I won't spoil anything but I THOROUGHLY enjoyed them all. There will be several characters you recognize from the past cropping up.

    - The storyline never bored me and normally I can't 'just' watch a show. I tend to watch in the background. This kept me glued to the screen the entire time.

    - It also kicks off several storyline threads as well. The only one I can say without spoiling anything would be looking more into Picard's past and opening that up for more exploration by the IP.

    - Last but not least: the actors/acting! Once again, won't spoil anything but this had some of the biggest names in Star Trek all in one place. They were all fantastic, sans a few questionable decisions by the director/producer. The show constantly had me either in tears or jumping for joy. (Or shouting at my TV for the characters to shut up and kiss already!)

    SYNOPSIS: 8.5/10 - A valuable addition, not only to Picard as a series, but to Star Trek as a whole.    … Expand

    While seeing Stewart at the helm is in some respects reward enough, the producers rely a bit too heavily on that goodwill with a season that, three hours in, feels as if it's barely gotten out of drydock.

    So far season two feels more promising now that character introductions are largely out of the way and the whole team shares a goal.

    Nobody would mistake Picard for Star Trek in its prime. But it has captured some of that hard to define, easy to recognise Trek essence. And if not exactly at warp speed – there are still a few too many Stewart soliloquies – it has undoubtedly located its missing sense of derring-do and is hurtling satisfyingly towards interstellar overdrive.
