Star Trek: Picard teaser trailer

I think I like the silver logo even more :)

The ambiguous sunset/sunrise is a nice touch with that tagline.

When it was announce that Patrick Stewart was coming back to Star trek. There was a rumor back story, that Picard wife died on a mission they were on and he left Starfleet cause of it. Mainly, he may had kids of his own to take care of and thought that he couldn't rise kids and be in starfleet at the same time.
 
1. When did Picard become Admiral? When he got promoted from captain.
2. When is this set? In the future.
3. Is 15 years ago Hobus? If so, we may not literally be 20 years after Nemesis, we may be a few years later. Yes.
4. What's the political situation with Romulus?
Bad.
5. When did Picard retire?
15 years ago.
6. What's the situation with the Federation? It's an organisation in which many planets are members.
7. What happened to Riker? Middle aged spread.
8. What happened to Deanna? Became a school teacher on The Orville.
9. What happened to Beverley? Yeet. Season 2 style.
10. What happened to Worf? Died of embarrassment at how his people were depicted in Discovery.
11. What happened to Geordi? He stopped creeping on women hopefully.
12. What about the Enterprise? They're onto the Enterprise Z by now.
13. Does COUNTDOWN count? Carol Vorderman always counts.

u sassy :D
 
As excited as I am for this show...I am going to be incredibly disappointed if the reason Picard left Starfleet is because the TNG characters were unceremoniously killed off-screen sometime prior to the series.

I mean, I get that this show isn't supposed to be TNG 2.0, nor do I think it should be. But TNG was the show that first got me (and a lot of other people) into Trek back in the '80s and '90s, I can't believe they would think the fans who are tuning in to see Picard again after all these years, would also be happy to learn that these other characters that we were invested in for so long are just dead now.
 
How many of the TNG characters would really still be serving on the Enterprise-E 10-15 years after Nemesis?! I don't think that is true, but I imagine one or two have passed away.

I would think, it wouldn't be any of the main characters from TNG,but it made be someone we haven't seen or meet.
 
Picard probably left Starfleet because one day he looked up and realized his entire old crew had moved on. Not having the same relationships with his new crew bored him so he moved on too.
 
Here's the thing that sticks with me:

The vineyard imagery. I think of cemeteries when I see it.
 
I'm the opposite but I do share this sentiment. I love ST09, ID and enjoyed BEY. I really enjoy DSC but this show just fails to inspire thus far.

Honestly, the only thing that draws me in is the Romulan angle.

Yeah, the Romulans have been tragically underutilized in favor of the "more exciting" Klingons. Hopefully this series can touch on more Romulan stories.
 
I really liked the teaser until I remembered Kurtzman, that kind of blocked my excitement. I am putting my feelings on hold until the first episode.
 
Ok, how about this. He retired in 2384, planted some grapes, got some 2386 vintage wine bottles, got called back to service to lead an armada (really? no one else could do it?) then retired again? Confusing...



God, hate that stupid nova and everything to do with it. Bleeh.
So assuming 86 stands for 2386, he must have already been retired couple years before then. So, either he retired in 2384 unrelated to Hobus, or Hobus just got retconned into happening 3 years earlier than in ST09. If it's the latter, it's not the worst thing to happen in Trek.

Or it stands for 1986, the character Picard's vintage. When he was created.
