Seven of Nine is back in ST: Picard

[Ghislaine H. B. BRAEME]

And....that's a bad thing?

Just having Ryan reprise Seven onscreen is a surprising gift

Not at all. I still think that Seven of Nine was one of the best things in ST: Voyager with Kathryn Janeway (and the vessel)! So, if we have more of her in Picard, I will certainly watch the show or at less episodes in which she will be.

Jeri said in her twitter that she is not in just one episode.

Yes, I just read that too and I was very excited by the news.
(though I'm curious to know why/how Jeri Ryan accepted play a recurring Seven in ST: Picard, the show while in 2001, she refused to reprise her role in ST: Nemesis, while it was just the time of a movie...). Again, I hope that after Seven, Adm. Janeway will appear too, afterwards.

That being said, I already know that I won't be a regular viewer of ST: Picard. Never managed to hook with TNG so, I don't see why i should be with Picard which should re-use the same recipe but with more visual effects and a deep gap in timeline.

The Nemesis thing was a pointless cameo in the crowd at the wedding, and she had zero link to Riker and Troi who were getting married. In Picard, she's linked to him by them both being former Borg and presumably has something of value to contribute to the story.

I really don't think PIC will be much like TNG at all. Patrick Stewart has said as much. It's a 10-part introspective story story about Picard with it's own flavour.

I loved TNG growing up, largely can't stand it as an adult (aside from some solid gold episodes like "Yesterday's Enterprise" and others), but I'm hyped for The Picard Show. I might be hugely disappointed, but we'll see come January.

I completely agree on TNG... grew up (sort of) watching that series and tried it out as an adult and was sorely disappointed.
However, I will try PIC on for size, especially since Seven makes a reappearance and Data was my fav thing about TNG back in the day.

That suit has the power to go anywhere, anywhen, to seemingly observe all of space and time at the pilot's leisure. I suspect it's gonna crop up again (likely getting Georgiou back to the 23rd century for the Section 31 show after Disco S3)
Remember it's all under their new Star Trek Universe umbrella. It's going to be interconnected like 90's Trek or modern Marvel.

Modern audiences love these kinds of connections.

That was eighteen years ago and a different project involving different people. Lord knows I wouldn't always make the same decisions now that I made eighteen years ago.

Or maybe she just liked the script better . . . or is less worried about being typcast as Seven now that she's done other things for nearly two decades.

Maybe you're right, Greg Cox, and well, let's just wait and see!

 

[Greg Cox]

I remember people asking the same question when Nimoy returned in the 2009 movie. "Why did he say yes now when he said no to GENERATIONS?"

Maybe because he was fifteen years older and at a different point in his life and career? Or maybe he just liked the script better.

What if they namedrop Janeway? Will people start clammering for a Mulgrew cameo?

 

[F. King Daniel]

Robert Picardo may be coming back for Picard season 2.

 

[STEPhon IT]

I would like to see all of them, including Chakotay, Neelix and Kes.
But that will never happen.

I guess it all depends on where the story goes, only time will tell.

[marlboro]

Maybe he'll sing the theme song?


"Jean-Luc, I understand.
You are an older man.
You must have gone about
For 80 years, there about.

CBS please find a way
To keep Wesley a-way
Yes, please take my cash
Just don't hire his ass

Warp drives engaging
Fanboys appraising.
Seven is still so veeery
Do able.
Do able.
Doooooo able!"

Confirmed: Wesley Crusher will be making an appearance

Crossing my fingers. Probably my favorite character on the show.

Wasn't Frakes posting selfies with him recently? He was recently filming his Riker scenes for Picard. And Wheaton was there...

Remember when they said Picard wasn't a reunion show?

 

[Prax]

It's like "Return to Mayberry"

Unfortunately, we will never see all of them together in a Star Trek series or movie again, no matter how the outcome of the series will be.

For a storyline about Holographic rights and/or his role of tutor towards Seven?

Plus, I lately read too that Kate Mulgrew won't be against a Janeway's return in the ST: Picard so, we could get our trio again, even if in a recurring roles.

Would she be Admiral Janeway then?
