That was some reaction shot by Nurse Chapel and Spock in the kiss, for sure... great chemistry

PIC in two years hasn't been as good as SNW in just a few episodes.
Agreed. But it doesn't need to be brought up ad nauseum in every stinking thread.
I like SNW, but I still prefer PIC. I'm not jumping on the "Picard Sucks!" Bandwagon.
Sometimes the story in SNW doesn't grab me, but I was interested in PIC's story throughout. The only issue I had was how said story was handled during the second half of the second season. I'm not throwing out the baby with the bathwater.

Picard! Oh, yeah! I still need to watch the final episode. I may watch it when SNW is over and then Orville. Since SNW is satisfying my Trek Fix pretty well, I've not felt the need to go back to either.
And we still live in a racist culture. Young black children, still get 'The talk'
If you wrote these speculations as fanfiction I would probably read it. I like playing what-ifs too. But you appear to be presenting assumptions you've made as a self-evident reading of the "text.." Instead, it feels like you're pushing an agenda/perspective that's pretty much all in your head. The last time I didn't agree with your particular view you were dismissive and insulting. I don't want to do that. Because, like I said above, I might enjoy reading the fanfic versions.
At first I thought she was the baddie. Then she refused the guns so I figured I was wrong. The then came the betrayal I am impressed

Agreed, and I really liked this season of Picard. There's just something fresh and new that I really love about SNW (which I keep calling "New South Wales" in my head when I see the abbreviation, I can't help it, it WILL NOT STOP). It has to be the way everything seems to gel so well together, from the characters to the stories, and that it's episodic! I enjoy a story arc as much as the next person, but it's nice to sometimes semi-reset the clock at the end of the episode without getting rid of all the good stuff gained from it.
Oh, I do know one particular reason I love SNW: it's bright! It's well lit! I can SEE THE SET!
But what "over representation" are you talking about? I guest star hardly counts
Nowhere in any episode of any Trek was it ever stated that Uhura "first served under Jim Kirk".
Your personal canon does not overwrite actual canon.

Stop bringing you Picard/Discovery hate into this forum. Next time gets you another trolling warning.
Warning for Flaming. You’re sure on a roll here.
And the promised Trolling warning.
It's a good start, Trek has to make up for decades of not including LGBTQ people.
With dick jokes!
Three or four hundred years, at least.
I thought that was by far the weakest SNW episode yet.
Every beat felt contrived, the villain when revealed was uninteresting and hammy, and the most exciting thing in the episode happened offscreen. Whatever message they were trying to express about Spock’s humanity was muddled and incoherent.
And they said that Federation ships rarely leave Federation space literally ten seconds before the opening credits says the mission was to boldly go where no one has gone before. Did the writers forget Federation ships going outside Federation space was the premise of the entire franchise?!

Exactly what I thought after 7 episodes of Discovery. Heck, more like until 10 or 11. Until Captiany Killy at least.
Since SNW is not serialized, in terms of the plot, at least. I the last one doesn't stick the landing, it won't matter as much.
I still think I'd rate Disco S1 over all the other S1's since TOS that came before it. Though a lot fewer episodes.
In the "Crucible" trilogy, we learn about Alexandra Tremontaine, a female Human ambassador who worked with the Federation's Bureau of Interplanetary Affairs. She married Ambassador Spock in the 2310s. She bore a resemblance to Droxine from Stratos. ["Spock: The Fire and the Rose".]
