Is this show any good? I just started watching it. So far it doesn't have that star trek atmosphere like the old one from the 90s. Its more like a drama with just a few space ship scenes sprinkled around here and there. Is it worth sticking it out or should I just stop investing my time into it now?

Skip to season 3 and avoid the rest. S03 was a soft reboot and basically TNG pandering. The rest is unwatchable garbage.
I felt insulted by season 3. I question anyone’s taste that liked any of it. Star Trek ended in 2005.
I only ever watched Star Trek The next generation, the one from the 90s. Which one are you talking about from 2005?
So are you saying I shouldn't even watch this season 3 then? Because I'm watching episode 1 right now.
I meant Star Trek ran from 1966-2005. There were breaks but that is the main continuity. From 2009 on is a different continuity but people claim it’s all the same. It’s not. It’s Star Trek in name only.
You might like it but as someone who grew up with it, it’s simply insulting.
I find it extremely infuriating that people defend season 3. Season 3 is still shit to an unacceptable extent, the first two seasons being EVEN worse does not serve to defend season 3.
I'm with you so far after being done almost 2 episodes
It's pretty bad
the portal terrorism was kinda cool though :soiface:
I'm real bored until House of the Dragon airs and I can instead get mad at that.
It was good. You gays just always want to be b***hing about something because it's more fun to bash shit then to actually enjoy something.
Really not true. I just want kino.
As an example, I liked Chernobyl, so I am able to enjoy stuff uninhibited. Your premise is flawed.
There are people that still b***h about VOY and ENT and say those aren't "proper Trek" either but you can't in good faith argue that the worst of VOY still wasn't better than any of the garbage from Hispanic S1 and S2. I'm just saying that in the same way VOY or ENT is still leaps and bounds better than modern trek, so to is the third season of Hispanic. It's fricking night and day because it was overseen by an actual fan of TNG.
Speak about low standards. Pozzed show.
>chud_wojak_angrily_crying_and_pointing_finger.bmp.jpeg
So many people have low standards and shit tastes.
It's not worth getting upset about.
You're not going to get them to change.
no, season 1 is absolutely the most vile trek show ever made.
the last episode is the biggest, steaming pile of shit known to men.
I didnt watch season 2, even though it has a cool borg concept, its ruined by being too woke.
third season is the only 1 that should be watched. it does a complete 360 and is actually good.
Ok yeah because I'm on s01e06 and this is just boring, slow and horrible writing. Do I need to watch a season 1 and 2 recap on youtube to enjoy season 3? Or can I just start at s03e01?
no, season 3 is stand alone.
Ok cool thanks. lol I can't believe i wasted time on 6 episodes from s1. Although I was watching it at 1.25x and skipping ahead 10 seconds at a time a lot.
>season 1 is absolutely the most vile trek show ever made
You’re forgetting Discovery which not only took a shit on multiple aspects of Trek lore, also was hyper hyper woke.
Picard has one good season. STD has nothing.
Std had an okay first season.
No it didn't.
Compered to the follow up season, it was okay.
Std kept getting worse with every season.
They kept doubling down on moronic plot points and shitty characters.
Compared to all that, she first season was okay. I liked the mirror universe shit.
First two seasons were b+ then it went to D-, f+, D
More like C-, followed by whatever failure grade is for special ed.
I did not care for the first 3 seasons at all. Completely skipped season 4. Season 5 however, I actually found to be watchable. Commander Rainer was a total breath of fresh air, he legit got to harp on the shit that I personally found annoying with the whole crew dynamic. And even though the whole season was just one mission again the pacing was way better and it at least felt like the first Abrams Trek movie. Again, not necessarily my flavor of Trek, but still watchable.
I actually didn't mind it either they just shouldn't have called the aliens Klingons
it had some bad parts and episodes as well but I did like parts of it. I liked the stupid drumpf aliens
I kinda liked how they inverted we come in peace to be a threat, some stuff like that. It wasn't terrible to me
3 is actually good.
Wouldn't go so far, if season 1 is a diarrhea sandwich, season 3 is rotten apple.
It's still nytrek, my complaints would be:
>nobody uses phasers, instead they use laser blasters (that don't even seem to have stun setting)
>constant moronic action scene (the entire season begins with Beverly in a shootout)
>Picard doesn't act like himself, he lacks any authority and wisdom
>plots twist that don't make any sense
>everyone gets instapromotions
Think Jack and 7 are probably best part of the show
Picard season 1 is The Last Jedi of Star Trek. Season 2 is current year woke trash. Season 3 is flawed but ok and tries to give the TNG crew the send off they never got in the movies
Ok well that settles it. I am going to season 3 episode 1 then. But do I need to do a recap of s1 and s2 to understand it? Or no?
Picard dies at the end of season 1 and gets transferred to an android body. Yes its really fricking dumb but its something you have to know going into season 3.
lol oh ok, thanks. I just started season 3. Anything else I need to know?
Riker and Troi had a son who died at some point between Star Trek Nemesis and Picard season 1.
That shit doesn't fricking matter lmao. Watching Picard s3 I forget about it. They mention it like once? He's Picard, the previous seasons are irredeemable garbage, who cares what they came up with. In the trash it goes
So far season 3 is much better. Still this show is so slow in dialog I am having to watch at 1.5x just to make it go by in a normal way. lol its ridiculous how slow they make these shows now days just to get that 50 mins in.
No it will only harm s3 if you end up enjoying it
I watched S1 and was absolutely amazed that it somehow managed to be worse than discovery.
You know what else? The second season is even WORSE
I only found Season 3 acceptable. Season 1 woke garbage. season 2 as well. couldnt finish season 1. didnt bother with season 2 it sounded even worse. but yeah S3 was OK, some moments better than others. and you can watch s3 and ignore the other seasons it hardly matters its just a big ole bunch of bullshit.
Seasons 1 and 2 were a travesty. Season 3 was mediocre but we get to see the original crew and Enterprise D again, which almost makes up for it. The writing is still terrible though. No decent Trek since Enterprise. Very disappointing.
it's legitimately in the running for one of the worst shows ever made
I fricking hated season 1 and 2 but I'm going to be a fricking moron dumb frick and give season 3 a chance because I have nothing else to do
I will come back here and mock your taste relentlessly if it's bad. You really don't want that. I could have goonseshed instead.
I tried the first episode out of curiosity and didn’t care enough to go back. I didn’t recognize any of those characters.
yeah thats what I am doing. I got to episode 6 in season 1 before posting this thread. It was painfully slow, boring and bad writing. Therefore I took these peoples advice and just skipped to season 3
You smug wienersucker
You geriatric piece of shit
You old demented fricking moron
You dumb motherfricker
Fricking old wrinkly ass balls and probably shit yourself wearing depends and you come into mY FRICKING OFFICE YOU OLD FRICK? BALD FRICKING WHITE TRASH PIECE OF SHIT?
WHO THE FRICK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE? THE FRICKING SCUM UNDERNEATH MY BOOT. THAT FRICKING WEIRD COLOR THATS GROWING ON THE SIDE OF MY TOILET WHERE MY PISS MISSED A BIT AND IM NOT FRICKING BENDING OVER TO CLEAN THAT SHIT UP
YOU FRICKING WHITE Black person. WHO THE FRICK. SMALL DICK PIECE OF SHIT
Yeah. The receptionist not recognising the most famous living Starfleet officer was weird too.
Cant have famous white men in wacky lala lefty land.
Season 3 opens with Picard saying "This isn't about establishing a legacy for myself, I just want to go on an adventure"
MOTHERFRICKER YOUR LEGACY IS SECURE. WHAT
>Every single Starfleet officer learns about the ‘Picard Maneuver’ in class, the first contact between Starfleet and the Ferengi resulted in Picard deploying a short warp-jump tactic to destroy a Ferengi vessel that attacked the Stargazer unprovoked
>Every Starfleet officer knows that he was critical in the defeat of the Borg and that without him they’d all be speaking in binary
>Every Starfleet officer knows that he has tangled with AND DEFEATED a literal godlike being, Q, on multiple non consecutive occasions
“I’m sorry but who are you?”
It's stupid as frick but an even bigger problem for me is what is the point
What is the subtext, what it is saying, what does it add to the story
I can only see two things. One, demoralize white men. Let's not go there for once and work within the story. The second thing is it lets them have an easy excuse or answer to the question "Why doesn't starfleet help with this?"
An easy way to get Picard on his own.
But then my question is what does THAT add. If it's just an answer to why doesn't a fleet show up, no one cares. Who cares. extremely easy to make any excuse
How does making Picard isolated help in any way
Keep the story exactly the same but Picard goes in, asks for help, and Starfleet is like "Oh Picard, we don't see anything here, but given your past, of course we will give you the crew and the ship you need to investigate this matter. We're fully behind you, we owe you a debt that can never be repayed and sending you on an adventure like you ask is the least we can offer
Why not do that? They just want people to feel shitty and divided instead of working together. The opposite of what this whole stupid universe is supposed to be about
Hit the nail squarely on the head.
I'm watching season 3 right now, and in the same episode they did the "I don't need a legacy, this isn't about building one thing" they did a joke where Picard walks into a room and the guy goes "Picard, I started eating before you entered the room since your legacy precedes you so much"
They do jokes about how he has an ego over his massive legacy while at the same time do jokes that no one knows who this old Biden-like idiot wandering around is
holy shit good morning I hate women (don't pretend they aren't responsible)
Picard was a Starfleet pariah in season 1,he quit and nobody recognizes or likes him. In S2 he is suddenly some top dog in Starfleet academy and in S3 we see that young officers meet him in his bar and fawn over this living legend.
>it was all just a dream bro
I don’t really remember Picard in TNG or the TNG movies as being an egotist at all. Weird.
That´s not Janeway.
>Season 3 opens with the same fallout oldies song
I'm already seething with rage
I've only seen probably about 10 minutes of Picard when it was actually TNG worthy
damn, Beverly Crusher is looking old as frick
At this point the TNG cast is older than the TOS cast were in Star Trek 6
I just wanted to make my dumb joke about her looking like the bird alien thing
NuHollywood writing with TNG characters tossed in for nostalgia but they're all either flanderized or complete out of character
It is simply over for the west
We must bow to our chink overlords if we want sci fi. We aren't going to get it from fat middle age dykes or troons. simple as.
A lot of genres like sci-fi and horror are just dead because there is no originality and there are no niche creators who that's their thing and they do it well.
All the past guys are either dead or no longer in the business so you stuck with people who weren't really fans trying to ape a style or genre tropes.
Copying a painting and not understand the thought process or nuances. Or in a lot of cases no understanding of the fundamentals.
It's crazy how the people writing on Picard have no sense of subtly. The like to bring up the argument that Star Trek always had social commentary but ignore the fact they weren't direct about. There was a finesse that most of these people now don't understand.
And it's not just the west either. Chinks and Japs doing sci fi are essentially doing foreign tribute acts.
but I watched Chinese Three-Body and it was gigakino
Even Picard S3 in its entirety, at its best pales in comparison to a decent, a DECENT TNG episode. Brutal truth.
TNG really is the GOAT
Yeah I can see what your saying now. Oh well, i'll give s03e02 a try now. Only takes me about 30mins to watch each episode due to its slow pace.
I used to think this board was just being overly critical of modern star trek. But then I saw a clip of of of the newest shows where the ship sent messages through a wormhole and it backfired causing everyone onboard the ship to break out into a musical number for the duration of the episode.
Suddenly tom Paris going warp ten and evolving fast seems like decent writing.
skip the first 3 seasons. tolerable after that
I'm a sucker for more Seven of Nine so I liked those parts of the first 2 worse seasons. 3 as people said is better than the first 2.
>tfw no fiber cable gf
No. S1 & 2 are Sir Patrick´s egomania hour done as current standard moronic sci-fi.
S3 is for memberberries.
>Is this show any good?
FRICK NO
Stop ruining Star Trek for yourself! Do NOT watch anything made after 2005, which is when Star Trek ended
>things are getting so bad so quickly that even though I considered Picard to be one of the worst shows ever created at the time of airing, I never watched season 3, and now Season 3 memberberry trash now seems decent compared to modern slop
The show is practically garbage. S3 is the best season but only because the TNG crew is in it and the Enterprise D.
>Enterprise D
I'm one of the plebs who hates it. Cringe. Lowered my interest in the season.
*Pzzsst*
*sip*
Now the Enterprise E.. there's a ship.
S3 makes a throwaway joke about Worf accidentally blowing up the E. Sucked.
Season 2 is painfully bad.
Couldn't finish it.
I thought Raffi was Uhura for the longest time. Who the frick even is this person. Why is there a black drug addict woman running around
>You dumb b***h, aren't you the one who crashed a shuttle?
>Twice?
>You stupid black c**t, can you even fly this ship? Aren't you nicknamed "Crash"?
>Hey Picard, look at the dumb fricking pilot they gave you. This stupid moron who can't fly a shuttle
Uh, isn't your job, mr. Ryker, at least in part to improve crew cohesion? How will calling out your new, younger pilot who's clearly nervous in front of your captain, setting her on a path to question herself and her qualifications, help with that?
This is a rhetorical post. The answer is dumb writers wanted to make a silly scene that shows how she's a reckless speed demon archtype pilot, I am meant to question whether she is capable only for her to prove that she is when she pulls off a daring maneuver later
And the idea of something like crew morale or Starfleet working together in a professional, naval-like manner befitting of officers - asking for that from these writers is like asking for a Filet Mignon from McDonalds, it's simply not on the menu and if it was you wouldn't want it
But still. Actually no but still I had no greater point, thanks for reading my blog
skibidi picard
ok so far season 3 is pretty boring and shitty too.
apparently there's an ship that uses weaponized portals or something my dad was telling me about, very reddit, but I will be honest and say it's the only thing keeping me going on my watch
Almost done episode 1. No portals so far. Was the cake... dare I say it....?
The portals will happen.
S1
>Picard is an old man who quit Starfleet and nobody likes or recognizes him there
>Seven quit Starfleet and is now a rebel
>Original character donut steel 1: Captain Rios, Captain who quit Starfleet and now larps as Han Solo (he wishes) and is an alcoholic
>Original character donut steel 2: Raffi, she quit Starfleet, also she is addicted to death sticks and has family issues
>Original character donut steel 3: Jurati, works for Daystrom Institut and later kills Commander Maddox from the Data courtroom episode
S2
>Oh shit, we have to make another season, and everybody hated how everybody quit Starfleet, so now everybody is back in Starfleet
>Picard is now Chancelor of Starfleet Academy and holds the commencement speech
>Rios is now Captain of the newest starship
>Raffi is now chief engineer of some other Starship
>Seven is still a rebel
>Q dies in the end, for real, that's what the season is about
S3
>Oh no, we have to make yet another season and nobody likes the original characters
>Rios is gone
>Jurati gone
>Seven is back in Starfleet and now a first officer
>Raffi is now in Starfleet intelligence?
>TNG crew back
>Q is back
>>Oh no, we have to make yet another season and nobody likes the original characters
Frasier Syndrome
Does Riker still do the lean?
Yeah, but it's onto a cane
There’s time travel shenanigans in season 2. Picard gets to be space Hitler in some fricked up future.
I sometimes feel like I need to catch up on nuTrek regardless of its quality just so I know where the franchise stands now when people talk about it.
look at Star Trek Acolyte
quite literally the same thing
You’re not missing anything.
I know, but as a Star Trek fan I want to know what people are talking about because there's not too much new stuff being added, revisited, and reinterpreted and I don't know anything about it. At the very least I would find it really funny and be better able to argue against nuTrek when people try to tell me it's not all bad.
I stopped giving a shit somewhere in STD season 2
I'm only watching Picard S3 now. I watched S1 of it (hatewatch to mock it) and dropped it halfway through S2 (unbearably bad)
>I feel like it should eat some dogshit just so I know what it tastes like when conversing with other dogshit officionados
If I liked eating dogshit before it somehow became worse there wouldn't be anything wrong with eating more of it just to see what it was like.
I suppose, it’s your time to waste. I made it through seasons 1 of STD and Pic and wish I hadn’t bothered. Ymmv
>season 3 drops almost everything from s1 and 2 because they're terrible and everyone hates them
>except 60 year old black woman warrior who shows up at the beginning and end to ruin all of her scenes
Even when trying to make an apology season, they still couldn't commit.
If they thought fans just wanted references to be happy they were right and wrong. Lots of tards loved all the references but the rest of us didn’t.
It clearly says P.I. card.
Can't believe they made an entire show about Picard larping as Dixon Hill in the holodeck.
When the Captain was like
>We come in peace
and the Klingon guy starts screaming and going
>NO THEY DON'T THATS BULLSHIT THEY'RE FRICKING LIARS, FRICKING LIARS
I really related to him. That's how I feel. They're all fricking liars.
>We're about inclusivity! Diversity!
NO! NO THEY AREN'T! THEY EXCLUDE ANYONE WITH A DIFFERENT LINE OF THOUGHT! THEY ARE LIARS!
No, it's terrible. https://youtu.be/Skv-IIVJ1go
No. Season 3 is halfway decent. Just abandon 1 and skip 2.
JJ getting both star trek and star wars is just insane. How was this allowed. You can not put the same person in charge of the two different franchises like that.
He always wanted to work on Star Wars, but turning Star Trek into Star Wars was the next best thing for him. The first two reboot movies were not total failures so they thought he'd be a good choice for Star Wars.
formerly a franchise with dignity
>middle of a space battle
>better cut to minorities whining about drugs and their abandoned children
DING DING DING DING DING DING DING DING DING DING DING DING
>Good afternoon
>I believe it is afternoon in the Sol system
I think the line was serious
I don't think the writer recognized the problem
it wasn't delivered like it was a joke in that way
The writers really are morons.
the music on this show
>minorities talking about their drug addiction and abandon children
epic orchestral hybrid
>space battle with people yelling
occasional ambient note
Season 1: an interesting premise ruined by bad execution
Season 2: a retread of STIV and ruined by COVID filming
Season 3: it's not highbrow sci-fi and solves no ethical dilemmas, but it's a better execution of The Last Jedi and is a much better ending to that crew's story than Nemesis
First two seasons were awful self-indulgent trash.
Third season gives the fans what they wanted to an extent, but they ruined a character and had a 35yo playing a 20yo.
Why can't we just have /trek/ instead of these undercover threads?
You know why. So we live in hiding.
I started episode 3 but I think im too bored, the villain is a troon also lol?? idk lots of people whining about personal problems I don't care about. I'm tired. I'm going to bed.
Probably won't even remember I ever watched this when i wake
>SHAW: So… so… maybe you get them to come to you.
>SEVEN: How?
>SHAW: Bait them. Steal their pot.
>SEVEN: Pot? I'm assuming you're not referring to cannabis.
>SHAW: Sadly, no.
who the frick writes dialogue like this
