Terry said they had a Soji scene, but time and budget prevented it.

Yes exactly, it wasn't essential. I completely understand that.
Yes considering they filmed both seasons back to back with just a one weekend break, they had to have the ending in some sort of shape or if they wanted a scene with Laris, they could have filmed it at the same time they filmed the opening scene with Laris.
I think it's more just Terry Matallas wanted to focus on the original gang of seven at the end with no ancillary characters in that particular group. Plus after reuniting with Jack, and reestablishing communication with Beverly; Laris would be able to read the writing on the wall, and I doubt she'd stick around. Picard is engineering the end of his life, while Laris is a much longer lived Romulan, who even if she is the same age as Picard, has another hundred years or so left in her life.
She was ready to move on at the end of season 2, and honestly Picard wasn't all that committed to a relationship with her at the end of season 2. So yeah with Beverly and Jack in his life, I think she'd move on and he wouldn't do anything to stop her.
This wasn't really a Picard finale per se because there are still Picard characters we have no idea what happened them (like Elnor, Soji or Laris.)
This was first and foremost a TNG finale plain and simple.

Welcome to My First Video to My Youtube Channel!

ENTERPRISE THROUGH HE YEARS MEMORIAL
really? Crap..Sorry, Thanks for telling me!
how was the rest though
You years are off.
The Enterprise A's service was 2286-2293, while the footage you used of the refit 1701 was from 2271, not 2245 as you have written.
The Enterprise D's service was 2364-2371, not 2370.
The year you have for the Enterprise E is 2387. The ship was launched in 2372 and at least according to Matalas, would have had to meet its fate sometime before 2386, which is when he says the Enterprise F was launched.
You have 2401 down for the Enterprise G. However, it was launched under that name in 2402.

Matalas interview. He has a development deal with paramount, but no show (clearly can't start Legacy until after WGA strike), might be a limited series comic book prequel to season 3 Picard, a line about Kestria's where abouts was cut, he regrets that.

Very interesting that Terry specifically said that the fates of Ro & Shelby were open. And that Ro was originally going to have a scene at the end as a survivor.
Also found the idea that they fleshed out a Naomi Wildman/Fenris Ranger episode fleshed out.
Talked about a pitch for a limited series on how the Borg/Changelings hooked up. Comic book.
The 2nd to last episode of Picard managed to place in the top ten for streaming originals at #10. Now in fairness the streaming charts do not include data by individual episode, it counts every episode of that show that is watched during the week in question but the bulk is of course typical for the most recent episode.
276 million minutes watched.
Paramount only started getting tracked with the 1st week of April (Week ending April 5th). The results that tracked high enough to count previously was episode 4 (or was it 5) with 310 million minutes. And on the week of April 5th the final episode of 1923 was 560 million minutes. That level is high enough that it normally would track in the top ten each week. Picard's numbers if normally in the upper 200 to low 300 would normally not track as the typical low is mid 300 to low 400 (Though there are some weeks that even 220 have tracked).

I’m not typically one to post YT videos but I found this one to be pretty on point.
I generally agree with Steve on most things so that’s not surprising. Some I think is a little too harsh, some a little too soft, but I think generally he hits the nail on the head here.

He’s definitely right about how flimsy the story is. It’s lathered with nostalgia to cover up that it’s a flimsy plot.
