Spoilers Star Trek: Picard General Discussion Thread

It makes sense that some sets remained the same. Sir Patrick said that he had only one night of sleep between shooting seasons 2 and 3. So, it stands to reason that they kept some of the sets to make this kind of shooting schedule possible. Seasons 2 and 3 are probably more like one long season plot-wise, at least that’s the impression I keep getting when I read new interviews. :)
S2 seems (mostly) 2024, we are just presuming they don't get to the 25th Century until the end (could be wrong?), however for S3 Matalas has been teasing A LOT of a new Starfleet vessel for months

Unless they keep La Sirena as a secondary location

I wouldn’t be surprised if they went through multiple timelines and eras. I bet most of what we’ve seen is in the first 2 to 3 episodes.

Yup, it was the same for the first season, the trailers in advance all showed mostly scenes from the first few episodes, partly because they didn’t want to give too much away and partly because it was convenient since the first episodes are probably the ones that are finished first post-production wise and thus readily available to turn into trailers.
 
I started a rewatch of Picard tonight to get ready for the new season. I still really like Picard's housekeepers, Zaaben and Laris. I hope we see them in Season 2. As much as I am down on Picard at the moment, they did have a pretty good start. Remembrance was a decent pilot.
 
It is a story that stream Trek / nuTrek / Kurtzman's Trek is some kind of dark future. Well let's say only for Discovery.

But look at Picard season 2/3, look at Prodigy, look at Lower Decks.

Everybody's back in Starfleet, even those who are surprise.

Picard's back in Starfleet.
Raffi's back in Starfleet.
Rios's back in Starfleet.
Paris is back in Starfleet.
Chakotay's back in Starfleet.

Maybe even B'Ellana's back in Starfleet.

Starfleet rebels (Picard, Raffi, Rios), Maquis members (Paris, Chakotay, maybe B'Ellana) they are all back in good old blue/yellow/red uniforms with delta badges. Amazing.

They just need to fix atmosphere of Mars, take back carpet on the floor in starships and throw out the window-screens on the bridge. And it will be 90's Trek again. Ofc with more quality of writting.

Everything is going to be as it was before.
 
Paris is back in Starfleet.
He was back in Starfleet in Voyager. Notice how he had actual rank instead of a provisional rank like we saw the Maquis crew use. Plus he was in uniform in the very first episode. He was recommissioned so he could go on the mission.

Everything is going to be as it was before.
I hope not. if I want what was before I'd watch what came before. I watch these shows for new stuff.

Maybe Q screwing with the Prime timeline means no Bell Riots?
Thanks to Past Tense, we already know what happens if there's no Bell Riots. Earth's 21st century becomes even darker, no Federation is ever formed, and by the 24th century Alpha Centauri is in fact a Romulan colony.

That doesn't seem to be what's happening here.
Starfleet rebels (Picard, Raffi, Rios),
Exactly how are they "rebels"? Picard resigned in protest of Starfleet abandoning the evacuation of Romulus, Raffi was discharged as a result of that, and Rios was discharged because of the cover-up which involved his ship being erased from the official record.

Also, without knowing the context of why they are in uniform again, it's a bit too early to assume they end up back in Starfleet.
Maquis members (Paris, Chakotay, maybe B'Ellana)
The idea that Voyager's Maquis crew would have received pardons after arriving home is hardly a radical idea. As for them staying in Starfleet, I was under the impression Tom Paris was only serving in a publicity function.
He was back in Starfleet in Voyager. Notice how he had actual rank instead of a provisional rank like we saw the Maquis crew use. Plus he was in uniform in the very first episode. He was recommissioned so he could go on the mission.
No actually. His official status in Caretaker was simply an observer for that mission, and afterwards he was supposed to go back to prison until at least his next scheduled parole hearing. Indeed, throughout Caretaker, though Tom does wear a uniform, he does not wear any rank insignia on his collar at all. It's not until the end of the episode when Janeway formally reinstates him. And really, he should have been wearing a provisional rank like the Maquis crew, after all he's a former Maquis himself and he gets his rank at the same time they do under the same circumstances. Only difference is his daddy's an Admiral.

Begisn with either a slip of the tongue or slip of a spoiler from the interviewer?
 
So Picard rejoins Starfleet, gets Rios and Raffi their jobs back and puts Elnor into Starfleet?

No surprise at the new ship name given the name of the series
