New combadge, who dis?
Picard accidentally sent Bev some messages via his combadge saying how she needed to visit the chateau with the eggplant emoji thinking they were grapes. Beverley hasn't spoken to him since.
I think, I don't get your point there. Yeah, Janeway's appearence in NEM was a cameo and the only information, we got, was, that she's an admiral now - an admiral, that seems to have a good relationship to JL. Compared to many other similiar scenes between Picard and any adimral, this one was even 'intimate'. So, of course, exactly this scene, where they established Janeway as an admiral, who also honored JL's expertise in a field, she always has a lot of experience in, is my point: Without this scene, I've never would have asked myself, why Janeway didn't intervene, when the admirality, she is now a part of, too, accepted JL's retirement. But at the end, I think, that we can have an agreement with this statement:
I'm assuming the same. And the NEM-scene in my mind, I really see this as a 'whole' in the story, they try to tell us. Not a big 'whole', no, but a 'blind spot', that is a bit irritating to me.
Apparently the actor is still pretty active (at 81 years old) so... maybe...
as an actor or just sexually?
That Viagra is the bomb.
Oh, I think, more than for example Nechayev, but that's not the point because: We have an agreement, again (two in row!). There'd be no reason to focus on Janeway, of course, but I also never said anything about any "focus"

Oh, I’m not trying to argue; I just feel that too much oversaturation of past Trek character cameos will end up taking the focus away from who the show is supposed to be about. I would rather just not know what character X happens to be doing now, because it’s not crucial to the story, especially if said character has either no link to Picard, or the link is so tenuous that it might as well not be there at all.
Yepp, for example like Julian Bashir (oh, hey, Bashir also met Data!) or Seven of Nine (oh, hey, they were assimiliated by the same collective once)!

I think the relationship between Picard and 7 of 9 being former Borg is a bit more important than a doctor stationed out in the boonies who met Data precisely one time.
Now with that said, I would have preferred to not even see 7 of 9. But that’s just me.

Yep, now you're on my way. Exactly this differentiation is "the thing", I was talking about at the beginning of our conversation: There are some characters, that are "a bit more important than" other characters. Even in a story, where Picard is in a conflict with the starfleet admirality.
q.e.d.
Beverly, all my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh, I believe in Beverly
Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me
Oh, Beverly came suddenly
Why she had to go I don't know she wouldn't say
I said something wrong, now I long for Beverly
Beverly, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in Beverly...

Well, they've been explicit in interviews that Seven and Picard literally never met in-universe until the end of episode 4.
She's there not because of her relationship with Picard, but because of her relationship with the Borg, since ex-Borg are a major part of the story.
I like that Beverly came before you finished.
That's very gentlemanly of you.
Pretend I said something here about Beverly that would get me another 24 hour timeout 
Picard WAS a Borg. I think his level of Borg-knowledge is at least on par with Janeway. Maybe not as much as Hugh and 7. As an Admiral he would have been privy to everything Janeway knew about the Borg et vice versa, one assumes.
Should Q make an appearance on Star Trek Picard?
hasn't been seen on tv since 1994.
