I can't remember, is there any indication in TNG that Picard had a brain anomaly before he was Locutus? I keep thinking that something is going to come of that

Mr Veg and I are loving the repeated occurences of Picard visiting old haunts or acquaintances & being all “Hey it’s me, your old friend!” and literally everyone to a person is like “FUCK YOU!” *throws rotten fruit*Dude’s about as popular as Gallagher

Even-numbered episode theory still holding!
It's basically holodeck technology outside of a holodeck.
Best GOT pun I've seen so far is Romulannisters.
The dog fight at the end was confusing because I wasn't sure which was Rios's ship!
rmde @ JL castigating Elrond for killing that Romulan when JL was the one provoking a fight.

I want to like this so much, but I don't really know what's going on, and it's boring. Sliding around on a Borg cube in your socks? No. That's not a thing.

the return of 7 of 9 should be good, but it wasn't dignified and quite bodged. i don't expect her to say that old maverick pilot *classic* "you owe me a ship, Picard" that is a Lieutenant Starbuck type line!

it is absolutely absurd that anyone would call him 'JL'

The difference with me is that I used it ironically! Agreed that it is awful all the same.

Yeah, I hate that as a touch. It's so Poochie.

Yeah it’s too familiar & informal. I dislike it immensely

I don’t know, I’m really enjoying the klutzy, rambling pace, it makes the show seem more like comfort food to me, which is what I want from a trek show
― Chuck_Tatum, Sunday, 16 February 2020 17:54 (four years ago) link
I can imagine being called JL initially irritated Picard and that was part of their dynamic when they got along.

The music is really weird and intrusive and makes this feel like a modern BBC show like Sherlock

Sliding around on a Borg cube in your socks? No. That's not a thing.
When that bit happened my bf got a disgusted look on his face and muted the loud, overweening Titanic-romance music that started playing. BLEUGH what was the point of that scene. We get it, he's playing her.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Monday, 17 February 2020 05:48 (four years ago) link
But I'm enjoying this otherwise. I liked Seven's entrance, especially her falling down dizzily after she said it.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Monday, 17 February 2020 05:49 (four years ago) link
that scene was important to establish that there are still socks in the 24th century and it will pay off later in the show, possibly to universe-saving effect

#Picard is a tv show this is my report about itit has many themes, such as the following pic.twitter.com/VnOVL5TqGU— Anthony Oliveira (@meakoopa) February 18, 2020

picard's undercover werner herzog impression is, like this show as a whole, bad

I thought he was sounding like a bad French stereotype, not a German one? Need to relisten

he was going for french and landed on herzog-in-jack-reacher imo

that was a really bizarre episode. parts of it were laughably bad - the lizard guy with the keen sense of smell seemed like he wandered in from The Orvilleand no idea what they were thinking with Picard's accent unless it was some sort of Holy Grail/Pink Panther tribute

anyway this episode was Good because it was narek-and-twinless and with luck we've fulfilled our raffi backstory requirement
