I haven't been watching Picard and I haven't really seen all of the spoilers and reviews I've watched a few I've watched part of one episode I kind of watched a little bit but I just stopped though I love the next generation I'm too much of an old fogey I think to a point I can understand that the conservatives don't like change and don't want change that can be scary even if you know it's going to be for the better fear sometimes can be good it can be necessary to tell you win to fight or flight it's what makes us fight for that better life because we are afraid of what will happen to our friends and family if we don't and conservatives are nothing but fear I have a fear of the The life I will have if we go back into Nazi era Germany I have blonde hair and the gene for blue eyes it was in my DNA test which I took my husband has black hair and brown eyes look up Lebens born that's the thing that we need to look up that's the stuff we need to look at they are further into Nazi ism then even the the people that have been calling them Nazis the whole time realize they are already into very deep Nazism with the overturning of roe versus wade and eugenics overturning Roe versus Wade is Eugenics there are documentaries on something called Lebens born this should make white conservatives even afraid they think that their husbands are "SS" officer said there safe they're going to be nothing but broodmares and then us who are good people are going to be raped repeatedly There are documentaries you can see

They played the hits. It was all retreads of old notes and points. Well done. Looked really cool. Q never said it in so many words, but once or twice he all but scrawled it on a brick and clubbed Picard in the head with it "The Final Frontier isn't space, and distant planets. It's you. Your potential. It's in what you find when you let go of what you think you know and who you think you are. Space is where we have to go to find weird enough stuff to put you in a position to be your truest self." Picard S1 and S2 *Tried* to do some of this. IMHO, Picard S3 has good scenes and lots of potential (Which may yet be used) but It was a live "best of..." album where a band we love plays a great rendition of their old hits and leaves the stage to thunderous applause. Although they DID get one thing crystal perfectly clear "When the chaos comes and the fire is all around, head for the center. Leap towards the core of the problem." Which is a very Star Trek Point of view I think SNW and DISC actually put that "Find yourself in the depths of a crises" POV to work better. Lower Decks does it funny. Prodigy is about Starting in crisis and finding your inner Star Trek as you go Yeah PIC S3 was fun for me, but didn't really hit the spot the way SNW does. I liked it. I am not looking forward to flying my ship into the heart of a Borg Mega Cube and blowing up a MacGuffin Spinner in STO 800 million times for an event.

I loved it, great action scenes, very much a TNG episode with a proper send-off.

I readily confess that my favorite scene in the entire season was that after-credits scene. There's the old saying: That which can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence. Hence, the return of you know Q. No evidence for how he could have been dying to begin with so no evidence for how he can be back. It was almost an acknowledgement of all the criticisms that the second season made zero sense. Maybe that's another reason the second season Borg Queen does not show up to help since they are, allegedly now in the Federation. I hadn't thought of it but it is appropriate that this is 1980s nostalgia because it does go with the "Can't be a mother and work" nonsense but never throws that same sexist conundrum at men. I very much enjoyed seeing the crew get back together for the last time but would also not want to see this exact style continue into a new series. I will say they may have learned from the lack of acceptance of TNG when it started back in 1987. There was a lot of talk that it would have gained greater early acceptance had they begun with, say, Saavik, David Marcus and Captain Sulu rather than a completely new crew. Maybe they are going with that idea here by starting with characters we already know for a new series. Since it has been clearly stated by the writer that Seven was a trans metaphor here, it's sad to see so many people who love the third season because they see it as a return to the good old days when Star Trek was just a rollicking good adventure without social messages. Argh! But that goes to your argument that metaphors too often do not work compared to topical statements. All in all, I enjoyed this but, dramatically, I found some of the sudden 180s (not 1980s) to be too abrupt. The sudden shift from changelings to borg or from Vadik to Borg Queen were cute twists but dramatically unsatisfying. I actually liked ST 6 better and a more satisfying finale for the TOS crew. But, like ST 6, I think this was a nice ending for TNG crew but needs to stay their last appearance as a group Oh, and you Live Long and Prosper too, Jessie.

As I said in response to your rant video: the collective are NOT a queer allegory, the XB's were, and even the borgati could be considered that at a stretch, but the collective are the fascist allegory and a conversion-therapy allegory. Exactly the inverse of your take on them. Though, the fact there's no queerness expressed anywhere in Starfleet here is a definite and extreme negative. I had to roll my eyes at the Enterprise G thing, like, yes, names are important, but seriously, she already had an important name. I also wasn't a fan of the play-cute by putting Rafi as Seven's XO, they should have had Evan Evagora back as Science Officer if that's the way they wanted to play it. The post-credit scene was cute, but if they're going there, they should have had Guinan join the poker game (and clear up). This is not to say I didn't enjoy this episode, but my emotions are very mixed on this. One thing I did like is the deathstar-trench-run; perhaps a reference to the Game Star Trek: Invasion where you have to pull off the same thing, but in a fighter, as opposed to a behemoth like the Galaxy class (apparently she can really fly, unlike pretty much any other time we've seen one manoeuvering.

We already do a trench-run with a Voth city-ship, so the STO devs probably won't want to re-tread that particular story beat any time soon... and it's only 80 million times.
