SPOILERS AHEAD FOR STAR TREK: PICARD [OBVIOUSLY]

On this week's Star Trek: Picard re-cap, the gang hurtles toward the end of a so-so first season with a chat about the awesome eighth episode, "Broken Pieces!" Can someone please find something for poor Elnor to do? How totally bad ass was Seven when she commandeered the Borg cube like that? Wow, should they have done that wild Romulan insanity ceremony around so many jagged rocks? And three cheers for finally revealing details that would've better served your show had they not been kept secret for the entire season for no reason! PLUS: Just look at that glorious airlocking move! Making It So is a Star Trek: Picard recap show available exclusively to you, the totally awesome WHM Patreon subscriber! Thanks for your support and enjoy!

only really cool parts was with Seven. When she became the Queen/hive was fucking awesome. The rest...eh. This whole arc has been pretty lackluster. With 2 eps left, I feel everything will be rushed.

Oh I thought the season was gonna be 8 eps? But it's 10?

Yes! Thanks for the keeping the content comming. I work in the food industry in AZ, and listening to you guys is my favorite way to escape this chaos. Stay safe and thanks for these bursts of levity.

To me, STP and STD has diverged from the vision Roddenberry established and Berman continued. I fell in love with star trek because it laid out how humanity could look at its best, not just another dystopian sci fi show. STP feels like just another dystopian future that so many shows have been exploring this past decade. I know people are just going to say that times change and so should the creative direction of ST but I wholeheartedly disagree. There may have been plenty of silly episodes and episodes that explored darker elements but the idealism was always there. Okay done ranting.

This episode is like 75% exposition and 25% action. I had to rewind several times just to keep up with all the explanations. It’s like, so the Zhat Vash saw the Admonition and the Tal Shiar is working with the Zhat Vash to kill the synths and stop The Destroyer who’s really Boo Boo Bloomberg who wants to put the kibosh on the borg pods and the Tide pods and whatever the fuck.

Chabon is a phenomenal author. I think he even did the story outline or the first draft of Spider-Man 2 so I know he's capable of writing for other mediums but this show seems amateurish in it's storytelling and it's mysteries. The beats themselves feel ok to me but when they're placed together like this I am left with zero connection to these characters and waning interest in seeing where it goes.
