There is no relevance. The only way to judge this work fairly is to see it to the end.And?
Don't see where any of that means she can't write or doesn't have a basic understanding of Picard's character.
Otherwise, it's like watching TWOK but stopping with Kirk marooned on Regula.
I think it's perfectly reasonable to judge the individual episodes of a serialised work. You might not have a complete picture of its messages and themes without watching it through to the end, but you can certainly decide if it's entertaining you. And a serialised story should be at least as entertaining as an episodic series taken one episode at a time.
The real question is why are you watching?
Eh, both are time honored ways of portraying a character's ancestor/descendent. The later would not have worked in this story,
They created FC uniforms for season one. So I assume it was deliberate.
So?
I haven't seen arguments this cheesy and bad since watching an episode of Dynasty.
Oh no! A fountain!
Hope nobody's planning a wedding.
These days there are plenty of serialized shows that have episodes that are entertaining on their own. So, it's not like the idea is unheard of much less never been accomplished!
Of course not.
I just don't expect it. Daredevil did the same thing. Par for the course for me for the limited 2010s shows I watch.
I know I keep saying this but I firmly believe now more than ever that the endgame of all of this is the connection between Q and Jean-Luc facing his fear. Everything else is window dressing. (I do get why this is frustrating. It’s not a writing choice I’d personally make. Maybe for a standalone episode like “Tapestry”, it works fine there, but dragging window dressing out for an entire season AND on a show where episodes are released weekly and not all at the same time leads to eventual viewer frustration because nothing seems to really go anywhere until the main endgame plot moves forward significantly.)
Thank you
And yes that scene (along with the one where he screams and fires that gun at the Borg on the holodeck) could definitely be interpreted as a glimpse at his internal rage along with his Borg PTSD. The Borg do seem to have a way of triggering it although if what I said is really true (still, just speculation), the rage had been there long before the Borg.

They would have us believe that for the last 35 years, we have been following the adventures of a fragile, shattered, incomplete, half of a man, and that only now the REAL Jean-Luc Picard has surfaced, a man so self actualized, real and dynamic, that he could have solved any TNG mystery, back in the day, in just 15 minutes.
We just found out that Picard is not lefthanded.
Yeah, this whole storyline is kind of contrived and unpersuasive. I don't think I care that much about Picard's self-involved ruminations.
Same reason the Borg, after assimilating millions of doctors and scientists, couldn’t duplicate what the EMH did to develop a weapon against 8472. It would seem that the Borg discard a lot of the skills and abilities of those they assimilate.
It’s a magic bottle that can exist in many places at once. Lots of El-Aurians have it.
The way that arrest happened at the end?
I think I was expecting something like that to happen sooner or later. All those time travel misadventures that mostly worked out for Our Heroes of the Moment across the decades? They still left traces for people to notice and track.

Would she leave the clinic she set up to help people tho?
4th longest behind eps 1,2 and 3 actually.
It’s ok, because this isn’t the same Picard from the prime timeline. This is CBSAA Picard from the same universe DSC and SNW hails from. The Discoprise hologram said it all.
