Spoilers Star Trek: Picard 2x01 - "The Star Gazer"

Love the wormhole turning into an hourglass!
Picard now wears the SF badge in the intro!
Beaming grapes right into the buckets XD
Zhaban has died
Assignments include Sulu, the Grissom, and the Excelsior
Picard wants to update the Kobayashi Maru
Raffi is on the Excelsior!
El-Aurians can choose how quickly they age
Seems his decades with wife and grandkids are completely forgotten...
"You look absolutely positronic!" XD
The old 000 Destruct 0 is still in use!

the new USS Stargazer was awesome and it's nice to see that they learned from the season 1 finale and used a variety of starfleet ships to form the fleet.
Please tell me, is it a Sovereign class ship?
And for those that enjoy both STO and PIC, could the new Stargazer be the same as STO’s NCC-2893-A?

Looks like an Akira Class to me. We have a lot of different ships to look at.
Some key points, his artificial nature is mentioned. He mentions that its not true that he has always run from love (or words to that effect) which I believe is a specific reference to his life in "Inner Light". Jurati was tried and found innocent due to the mental assault she suffered. So it was actually addressed.
Q is young.
Rios holds his cigar, and his lighter, even flicks the lighter on several times, but he never lights the cigar.....
Those are just tiny little quibbles that have been raised, but the episode sucked.
I kid it was awesome.....

Love it.
THAT WAS SO GOOD. Holy shit. Now THIS is what Star Trek: Picard should have been.Picard doing things he loves, being a mentor to cadets. A fully functional Starfleet that LOOKS like an evolved version of the Nemesis look. A starfleet filled with ships, new and old, that capitalized on the great bounty of technology brought back by Voyager.
Finally, an answer to the status of the borg.
And Q! Oh my. they made him dangerous again. This is Season 1 and 2 Q turned up a notch. I love it. And the surprise of making him younger for a moment... so needed. Good on them.
Some shows and movies really benefited from the pandemic delays. Discovery did. Spider-Man did. The Marvel shows on Disney+ did. Wheel of Time did. You can add Picard to the list. Compared to Season 1, which was billed as the most expensive Star Trek show ever (to which I say: SPS and Chambon must have made a made a pay day, this season in just one episode makes last season look cheap. Dozens of ships designs, new and old. New shuttles (no recycled disco shuttles). Considerable new late-24th century Star Fleet ship interior sets which probably cost millions of dollars. It simply looks like the show we always hoped Picard would be but fell a little short Season 1.
I'm really excited. This was the best opening episode to a live action Star Trek season since probably "Night" at the start of Season 5 (when Voyager was the only Star Trek show on the air for the first time). I just hope it can keep up the tempo. I'm excited to see this totalitarian alternate timeline (without the ridiculousness of the Mirror Universe). I just hope when they go back to 2024, the show doesn't become cheap and a Star Trek IV riff.
But man, Stargazer, Captain Rios, Q, Starfleet Academy Chancellor Picard, the new uniforms, the return of the Borg, the new ships, the story, the acting... there's been some great Star Trek episodes since it came back in 2017 (been a pretty big fan of the last 2 seasons of Discovery), but this is far and away the best one.
"The trial never ends", after an absence in Picard's life of 31 years, Q returns with that. Terrifying.
Oh yeah by the way, the year is at least 2401. Welcome to the 25th century folks. It took 35 years but we made it.
