Does it get better?

I have watched the first 3 episodes and really am not too impressed with the show? Does it improve at all?

 

I am a clairvoyant, so I know exactly what you dislike about the first 3 eps. So, my competent answer is: No.

 

I thought the first 3 episodes were absolutely brilliant, and probably the best episodes of the series.

So, if you’re not liking it now...I’d say you had best bail while you can.

 

Skip ahead and see if you like 7 and 8

7 is with Riker and Troi, 8 answers some mysteries and provides a lot of background

Guess I missed and episode. How did Troi take that?

 

It gets even more depressing. Is more depressing better?

 

I thought the first 3 episodes were the best. I loved the show, but if you didn't enjoy those three go watch something else.

 

I think I will take your advice. Thanks.

 

Watch it and decide for yourself.

I don't understand the point in asking other people, they don't have the same likes/dislikes as you.

They could easily dislike something that you might like, or like something that you don't.

 

For me, I wouldn't say it gets any better or worse. That's not to say individual moments of episodes have better scenes (or worse scenes) but overall it was fairly consistent for me at least.

 

Then don't answer. If you are just going to be snarky, it really isn't helpful.

 

"Remembrance," the series premiere, is probably my second-favorite episode. Like others have said, might just not be for you.

Though I note the OP already confirmed they'll probably hop off. Just figured I'd chime in!

 

I gave you an answer.

 

The original question seems to assume that there is some kind of consensus, with everyone holding the same opinion on what makes episodes "better" or not. But as this thread has shown, opinions vary greatly. Some viewers love the first three episodes, while others prefer the later episodes.

Perhaps we could help out a little more if we had some idea of what specific aspects of the first three episodes were disliked.

First three had potential; Only down hill from here. I didn't get past 6 or 7.

 

I'm pretty sure the first season of Picard has the highest ratings I've ever given a single season of Star Trek.

At this rate, if it gets "better", it'll dethrone Discovery as my favorite of the New Trek series. The only thing keeping DSC in the Top Spot in my view is that there are 42 episodes versus 10, and shows that started off great can always drop in quality after the first season. So I have to see the second season of Picard to get a better sense of its trajectory.

 

My answer to your question as asked: Yes. It does.

 

The first three episodes of season one of Star Trek: Picard are some of the best episodes of Star Trek ever produced. Anyone who disagrees has bad taste and I don't want to be their friend.

 

If you disliked the first three episodes for their pacing and general tone, you'll probably dislike the fourth as well, but ep. five has more spectacle and action, and the pace generally picks up from there with more action as the crew closes in on their goal. If the characters and plot haven't grabbed you by now, though, you're probably not going to like them any better by the end of the season and should probably bail now.
