Spoilers Star Trek: Picard General Discussion Thread

Who's that youngish dude below Bev?
 
Second part of the Terry Matalas and Todd Stashwick interview. Stashwick got a 25th century combadge / 4 rank pips / Titan silhouette tattoo!

Your guess is as good as ours. I think it's someone's son. But who knows?
If you really want to know now, check out the Popcast YouTube channel and a video from the first half of 2022.
 
Do you all think it's possible the parasites from Conspiracy are returning (I've seen speculation about it in the past)? Beverly saying not to trust anyone, Raffi putting something in her eyes (to protect her?), federation personnel firing on each other in the trailer.

That would make the "Trust no one" line somewhat palatable.
 
If it is the conspiracy aliens, I’d be thrilled. I don’t often find things really need follow ups, but this is one that I’d like to see.
 
You know who I realized we haven't seen any pictures of? Kestra from Season one of PIC.

With Riker and Troi back in active service, doesn't she have to be...somewhere in the plot? I mean, I think she's still a child at this point, even with the time skips. Lulu Wilson is still 17, and I don't think Kesta is much different in terms of age.

I guess they could just say she's off at Starfleet Academy, but she made such a big impression in Season 1 that I hope she at least has a cameo here...though I understand why mom & dad wouldn't want her to tag along this time.

I was also thinking about Kestra (especially with speculation that Troi or (Will) Riker could die), but then Picard dropped practically all its cast from S1, so she may not be back or even not get mentioned. I would have liked Soji and Rios to be there, too.

I don't see any way they don't mention Kestra at least in passing if one or both of the Rikers plan to make a heroic sacrifice/go out in a blaze of glory. I mean, you can't really argue they have "nothing to live for" - plus having a teen daughter kinda ups the personal stakes for them and means there is more poignancy to whatever happens.

Of course, it doesn't mean she'll actually be seen, but ignoring her just seems like bad writing.

There are a lot of things we haven’t seen yet from this season. Just because we haven’t seen a mention or shot of Kestra doesn’t mean she won’t show up in some form or fashion.
 
They don't need anything.
They will need some high budget and big name prestige shows in which to entice an audience to their premium service. Just like when UPN launched with Voyager. :)

I was hoping that Disney and Lucasfilm would make the next Star Trek series or movie but I guess that the highest bidder wins. :shrug:

It's not a new service, it's just rebranded. Just like how CBS All Access became Paramount+

Why would they want Star Trek? They have Star Wars.

Plus a merger that big would probably a bad idea.
