After Season 1, where did you think Season 2 would go?
- Thread starter Arpy
- Start date
I'd heard Elnor would "explore his sexuality" in the original plans for season two, before Chabon left. Instead the poor lad was practically wiped off the face of the earth.
And then the next plan was going to be Covid... in space! (Which was also the plot of Noah Hawley's cancelled movie), which was vetoed by Sir Patrick.
I never expected we'd get anywhere near as nostalgia-bait and fanwank obsessed as the show became.

I just expected Picard and company to discover a mysterious threat of some kind again. That’s it.
I kind of was hoping for more off world stuff in space or maybe a season long thing about the tentacle robot thingy having broken through to our side mid season and then the rest is a way to work out how to deal with it. before a cliffhanger to set up season 3 and have season 3 be what we got in season 2
Maybe just seeing the La Sirena crew out exploring would be nice. Picard's got a new lease on life, and Rios, Raffi, and Seven are ex-Starfleet hardened by past events, so maybe they'd all like to get back to simply seeing the galaxy, but now on their own terms. Then of course Q pops up throwing a wrench in that with more "humanity's still on a trial stuff" stuff.
I'll look up what I posted at the time.
I was thinking that they would spend more time exploring Picard as a synth. I also was expecting another adventure on the La Sirena. And I was thinking we would get more 24th century worldbuilding. I wasn't expecting half the crew to go to Starfleet, though that was a welcome surprise.
i think I expected for Season 2 the show would explore life on the final frontier from a non-Starfleet perspective. Picard would see that many of the ideals of the Federation he highly valued sometimes clashed with how things really were when Starfleet isn't around to back them up. Maybe there would even be times when the crew of La Sirena would even view Starfleet as something of the enemy when a situation puts them at odds...
I also expected more cowbell too. Everything's better with more cowbell...

Wasn't one of the first teasers for season 2 showing some Bajoran artifacts? I thought we would get updates on the Bajorans and maybe even the Dominion. The crew had just formed and season 1 ended with them going on on another adventure. Maybe we could have explored of more 7's past as a Fenneris Ranger.
I maintain it was a missed opportunity not equipping Picard's new synth form with transformer capabilities. For example:
- Picard's forearm transforms into a phaser blaster.
- On a planet of pre-warp natives and need a ride? No need to haul a buggy to the surface, Picard *is* the buggy. You could even have his face plastered on the front like Thomas the Tank Engine.
- All hands, abandon ship! Fear not, Jean-Luc has you covered and can transform into an escape pod.
I mean, come on.

Picard would have rejected it.
I mean just for shits and giggles that would be fun... Pity programmable matter doesn't yet exist in Picard's time
It was right there, Paramount
I don't know I kind of understand that but found myself liking season 2 more then season 1 so want the last season to be good. May I ask why you said that though?
