Spoilers Star Trek: Picard General Discussion Thread

[Tuskin38]

Yeah, just based on how much we've seen so far, it seems like just characterization is coming over.

Leaked set images

Spoiler

There's a shot of Patrick chilling between takes with what looks like one of the Season 1 Mars Androids, he's in his Alt-Timeline getup. So it looks like Evil Starfleet also has androids[/spoilers]

Also the USS Luna is on the same display, with its registry number from the books (though NCC instead of NX). Some people are getting excited too early, it's probably just an easter egg.

My guess is other than the main cast coming back there will be basically zero threads which carry from Season 1 to 2, considering much of Season 2 seems to take place in either alternate timelines or the past.

I mean a rewatch for fun and anticipation

If those registry numbers correspond to ships in S3, then that pretty much puts it in in the present (Picard) or near-future timeline.

I hope appropriate Season 2 episodes have Q in their titles.

I think some people get so caught up in the nitty gritty of detailed analysis, they forget that watching TV is meant to be fun

 

[NCC-73515]

Detailed analysis is fun for people who enjoy that.

I hope to get:
- More information on who Rupert Crandall is, and why he immediately knew the eternal-thunderstorm-but-also-CA-sunshine planet Kestra asked him about
- Raffi's vindication since she was right all along
- Nice flashbacks showing more of Picard's past in both the alternate and the prime timeline
- Some reference to the Bell riots
- Perhaps even an appearance of Rain Robinson, still working at the Griffith

Indeed. As well as that shows are about characters not technical details.

Based on its registry number, it could be either a Bradbury class or Nova class starship. But could just as easily be something else.

 

[Uhura's Song]

Ha, I actually really love Narissa, but I realise I'm in a tiny, tiny minority of people who do. I just like that she's unapologetically awful to everyone and it helps that Peyton List is a stone cold fox.

I am with you on Narissa Island!

Drexler on FB:

If you saw, what I saw, on stage at Star Trek Picard today, you would need your didies changed. It's going to take me days to come down!

 

[Ray Hardgrit]

I'm starting to get worried that the only thing that could get Drexler this hyped is his Refit NX-01 showing up.

 

[Tuskin38]

He’s a big TNG fan too

 

[Tuskin38]

Huh, that LCARS panel Terry posted, has a visual callback to a display seen in All Good Things

[fireproof78]

Explains Doug's reaction.

 

[Tuskin38]

Mike Okuda in the comments says the graphic goes back even further in TNG. I wonder where else it appeared.

 

[Kamen Rider Blade]

I'll join your ranks as a fan of Narissa / Peyton List.

Feeling very hopeful about the production design of this season. I wish we could to see the uniform from that painting in action!
