Spoilers Star Trek: Picard General Discussion Thread

What is this ship? Nova Class?

 

Yup.

 

Yeah placeholder. There's other concept art out there where it's a Vesta and even a Sovereign class.

 

I'm going to pretend the whale probe is Agnes Jurati's Borg who went off the deep end and just really wanted to hear some whales. Maybe she's responsible for V'Ger too.

 

Saw this in the SNW thread & decided to cross post:

Anyone have a similar artcle for April? Would live to see how the Disco/Picard duo did.

 

Picard was 6th in April. And 3rd in March.

Disco not ranked in Feb. Could not find January.

 

Expect S3 around February...

I'm so glad Picard season 3 will be back next February. I'm curious what new role Brent Spiner will portray in season 3.

 

That's not set in stone yet. Brent Spiner only said he thinks it'll premiere in February. Keep in mid, there were trailers that said season 2 was going to premiere February 2022 and it ended up premiering in March instead.

Not saying it won't premiere February, just saying don't go clearing your calendar just because one actor says that's when he thinks it'll be on.

 

It took 6 months for Season 2 to finish filming and to air. If they're releasing Season 3 in February, 11 months after it finished filming, there's either a lot of post-production going on and they want to give the FX team a lot of time, or something else is going on.

After SNW ends, there will be 25.5 weeks left in the year. We still have the 10 episode Lower Decks Season 2 and the last 10 episodes of Prodigy Season 1.

 

I'll just be happpy when we can finally see new Picard again whenever they choose to have it next year.

Wow that is amazing! Has it been published before? I have never seen it. They need to make a Star Trek planetary map book for all of the major planets!

 

This map specifically was made for Picard Season 2, that's why I posted it here.

It is based off a map Robert Hewitt Wolfe drew for the DS9's writers room

Which was also partly created by Geoffrey Mandel for the 2003 Star Charts book

 

I have to say, I'm left wondering why almost all Bajorans are light-skinned given the capital seems to be in the tropics.

Maybe the Bajoran sun puts out less UV than our sun however.

 

Gotta appreciate how the oceans are purple like Kira said in "Past Tense, Part I(DS9)." Nice touch!

 

Season 2 releases on home media in October:

Steelbook is also confirmed.

 

Matalas talks season 3.

Okay, this discussion now has me intrigued for season 3. Except…

Spoiler: Season 3

… for the mention of no O’Brien. That makes me sad.

Regardless, Matalas seems genuinely excited about this. Enough so it’s infectious.

 

He also hints he may be working on more Trek after Picard finishes.
