[long_time_DNC]

Haven't watched the Ready Room segments yet...need to do that...

Caught up with this week's episode. Lost access while I was in Germany. The show is finally getting where it needs to be, and sadly there are just 4 weeks left.

And for fun, I watched an episode of TNG. Yesterday's Enterprise. Such fun. Next up is I, Borg, in honor of Hugh.

I guess I am in the minority here because I find the show rather boring and so does my wife who loves Picard from The Next Generation.

The story told in these six episodes could have been told in 3. But it seems to be moving along now, most likely to end with a classic TNG cliffhanger that will leave us unsatisfied for a year.

In the first Season, already approved for Season 2.

Unfortunately, well have a long off season I would imagine.

Hey it's Picard, I can wait...

I know there is a second season, my point was more along the latter. A LONG time to wait.

I hate long layoffs, especially when they do so few episodes.

I hate long layoffs, especially when they do so few episodes.

Remember back in the LOST days, when ABC would show 8 or 10 episodes and then go on hiatus for 18 months? Or the last season of Battlestar Galactica, which somehow lasted 2 years. It is total b.s. With both shows, I had to do serious catchup to even remember where things stood.

I really miss 22 or 25 episode seasons, from September to May.

Hey it's Picard, I can wait...

Waited 20 years the first time ....

Waited 20 years the first time ....

True. And suffered through some lousy reboots. Picard is very enjoyable.

This week's episode had "all the feels." It was so nice to see Jean-Luc back with Riker and Deanna. Loved every single minute of it (except for the scene on the Borg Cube).

Yes, really enjoyed this weeks episode.

Elnore should have cut her head off...

Elnore should have cut her head off...

Sure wish he did. That one would have been deserved!

I just re-watched the episode. Truly a great episode. AND I just realized the naming of the Riker-Troi children, Kestra and Thaddeus. Very cool!

 

[dfergie]

Very good episode all around I thought, the ready room is good also.

 

[Jimbo]

Elnore should have cut her head off...

Elnor took a sword to a gun fight ....
I'm surprised he's not dead instead.

I hated to see Hue go so soon, they could have just had him roam off instead.

The more I think about it, Hugh had a very specific purpose in the plot, and he accomplished it. They certainly didn't need to kill him off, but it will probably enrage Seven of Nine, so that could be useful.
