Star Trek Picard and Strange New Worlds

[celedhring]

No posts in two weeks, I can see why... the show is weird. Lots of interesting ideas and world building, pretty tacky dialogue and lame plotting.

We're almost halfway through the season.

Per episode, nothing is happening. Last week was just 45 minutes leading to meeting 7 of 9.

Last week they  introduced a new character and a new sect of  Romulan culture.  We also learned the details of why Picard left Star Fleet.

See! I didn't even remember anything but the last minute!

Thanks guys. I'm planning to watch ep.3-4 tonight, which one can I skip?

None.  I have a feeling they will be important in the future.  So far, it looks like the entire season is one big pilot: identify the crew members, establish who are the ennemies.   Mix that with a those of Mass Effect while you go around picking up side quests to recruit new members.

Kind of like the first half of the last harry potter film.

A lot of getting stuff ready for the next season.

I'm being patient on this, I'm sure we will be rewarded with two excellent episodes towards the end.

None they are good and important to the world building exercise.  I am not sure what GF is smoking

Yes, they were.

I am just still bitter that Picard is breaking the Trek formula.

It's boring, guys. You are allowed to say it.

The episodes are not self contained. There is no fun episode arc, only a season arc.

Yep. My brother dislikes it and he's an ST addict. That's enough for me to steer clear.
