Re-writing Season 3

[Richard S. Ta]

I loved the reunion aspect of it and I liked getting into the Dominion stuff.

Given the budget, I would have leant into that and had Picard visit DS9 to revisit some old faces there too.

No Borg. God. Why Borg again?

I liked Spiner coming back. But we should have seen Laris at the end. She's been part of the story since the first episode and it's a huge thread left totally hanging as Laris is front and centre at the start of the season. At the beginning of the story, we see Picard set out on a journey. Narratively, we should see him come home at the end (there was a scene planned that was never filmed according to Stewart).

No need for any Enterprise other than the D. The E could have been mentioned as being around on active duty, but out of range or whatever. The G was a nothing burger that got thrown away and there's no need to have the Titan be the H. Titan is a cool name for a ship already.

Season 3. I liked it while I was watching it, then I went off it a bit as it all settled in my mind, but now I feel that on the whole it was pretty good.

Worf destroyed the E.

Worf destroyed the E.

Exactly. As funny as that was though, it's doing a bit of a disservice to the E.

I have no particular affection for the E, but it is beloved by some and deserved better than being written off in a quip.

Better to not mention it at all or have it out of the way somewhere.

The whole setup of Picard season 3 is that JL doesn't want a legacy. I'm sorry, but the Enterprise has a legacy well before Jean-Luc Picard took command of the Enterprise-D and will likely have a long legacy after he stood down as the Enterprise-E's captain. Not only that but Picard had the Stargazer ahead of the Enterprise and he told Scotty basically that was his ship, no matter how much superior the Enterprise was. I just really wish they would have made another choice other than naming the Titan the Enterprise-G. Leave her the Titan or if you really needed to make the legacy thing happen, name her the Picard. It would have set better. At least with this fan.
