That's not what They did.
They gave both Data and Jean-Luc a much better parting of ways.
Data was already dead, Picard just took what had been left in B4 and extinguished it.
He gave Data the one thing he always desired, to be mortal.

Well, I guess the folks in charge of the CGI effect had forgotten to put the numbers on??
They should ask Shutterstock to put them on. That is apparently a real money saver.
Picard got to say goodbye and Data got to tell him he knew that he loved him. The moment that Picard never got aboard the Scimitar 20 years earlier was finally rectified.
Agreed. Like some have suggested, I'd rather have Picard let Data to take the android body and live the life he always wanted. It is what it is though and the series is called 'Picard' not 'Data'
Where is Seven's phaser rifle? She should've given Narissa the same treatment she gave to Bjazl...
I think a certain EMH Doctor might disagree.

Sitting here weeping like a baby. That was beautiful.
Goodbye, Commander. 
I have a strong feeling that Annika's affections for The Doctor, are no where near how she ends up feeling about Raffi.Agreed.

Honestly, if someone subverted my noble death and resurrected me in an android body and I discovered I had NO powers AND a mortality chip I'd be seriously bent out of shape. I found all the cheap philosophizing RE: "mortality makes life worth living " a little preposterous.
I did a fist pump when Riker showed up. And another when he told Oh to pound sand.
Picard and Data saying good bye... why did someone cut up some onions right then and there?

Looked like they were about to start playing something else. Or was that just me?
Didn't think they could wrap it up but they did.

If they had just left it here, it would have been complete but thankfully we're getting more.
Called it on Riker. Just wish they hadn't spoiled it in the opening credits.

Yes. Data WAS already dead. He should have stayed that way. To bring him back for this was emotional. Recreating Data's mind/katra/soul/personality in this way, which was their choice as writers, was manipulative. They didnt have to do that.
I think they were well past Spin-the-Bottle.
Re: Riker/Frakes: That’s why I skip pass the opening credits.
Also even though I loved Narissa as a villain I’m glad that Seven kicked her down a long shaft. She dead. So sad.

I gotta say... I think they stuck the landing. Like others have suggested, I really didn’t want Picard in an Android body but I think it ultimately works here. Perhaps it’s because of the real end of Data and two old friends’ last conversation that made it work for me.
But I’ll also say, I would be perfectly happy if they ended it here. I don’t know that I need a season 2. But if it really does happen, I hope it’s as ultimately satisfying as season 1.
9/10.

Heh ... isn't any good story manipulative in nature?
That's usually what makes them enjoyable.
At least for most folks.
It's almost like you enjoyed the episode but are unwilling to completely accept it because it's not what you wanted.
That's a very strange way to watch a TV show.
Best episode of the season... and very emotional. Tears in my eyes.
The first 10 of the season for me!

I'm glad they didn't. Never liked it.
The Data makeup looks the least janky in this one. Finally I guess.
