Loooooved it

BorneoBabe · 24/01/2020 20:49

Not a Trekkie at all and I enjoyed it.

DeRigueurMortis · 24/01/2020 21:58

Just about to watch now!

Will check back later Grin

I have been beyond excited. I've watched it. I wasn't "oh wow", but then I am in my fifties and haven't oh wowed about anything for a longer time.
Although I'm Still a bit excited at the prospect of seeing Seven of Nine later on (as per the trailer). And Patrick Stewart invited Whoopi Goldberg to be in the second season when he was on The View in the US (kind of like Loose Women). She was in TNG in case you don't know. But you do, don't you Wink

When I watched it and saw what became of Picard & why after all the rumours leading up to it, I thought

Sokath, his eyes uncovered!

How many true trekkies got that?! Wink

DeRigueurMortis · 24/01/2020 22:42

I liked it - looking forward to the next episode !

StreetwiseHercules · 25/01/2020 06:57

I am keen on this but it annoys me that they don’t just put out the full season.

Also surprised to see this on Prime after Doscovery being in Netflix. Discovery was weird in that it was almost good but not quite.

KatherineJaneway · 25/01/2020 07:38

Means those who don't have Prime can't just sign up for a free month, watch it, then split. If it's over 10 weeks they'll have to pay.

I thought the first episode set the scene well but can't wait to see Seven.

Indicates a lack of confident from Prime in their offering.

With Netflix, I would never cancel. The value is just too good because of the continual stream of good high quality content. If Prime got to that level I wouldn’t keep quitting it and going back to it when they have a rare good show.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 25/01/2020 08:23

It was brilliant Grin

AllAboutHallowsEve · 25/01/2020 09:17

Fantastic! Mesmerised by the beautiful expressiveness of Picard/Stewart's face. He really is marvelous. Cant wait to watch next week.

bellinisurge · 25/01/2020 09:29

Stewart is brilliant. A genuine magic grandad.

SerenDippitty · 25/01/2020 10:03

It was brilliant.

SerenDippitty · 25/01/2020 10:04

I wondered if the dog was one of his own foster dogs?

CrocodileFrock · 25/01/2020 13:07

I loved it.

My 16yr-old (who had never heard of JLP before Shock) started half-watching it when I put it on. Five minutes in and he'd switched off his tablet and was absolutely hooked.

KatherineJaneway · 25/01/2020 14:11

If you liked the show, worth heading to the Star Trek website for The Ready Room. Wil Wheston takes us behind the scenes of episode one and has a scene from episode 2.

Love your username, op. I wonder if she will make an appearance?

TheFaerieQueene · 25/01/2020 15:43

@bellinisurge I’m not sure Captain Janeway - or Admiral as I imagine she would be by then, will appear. I would love to see the Doctor in Picard. I think Robert Picardo (🤩) is a great.

Loving Star Trek Picard. Roll on Friday!

KatherineJaneway · 25/01/2020 18:23

I'd hope to see Janeway make an appearance, especially as she was in a film as a cameo.

I want to see the Doctor back too and if Hugh is back, where is Icheb? Seven was close to Icheb so surely he is around if Hugh is with Seven.

Neither Kate Mulgrew or Robert picardo are on the series cast list.

Johnathan Frakes and Marina Sirtis are though.

Whatsnewpussyhat · 25/01/2020 23:24

Sorry, that was meant to say that are NOT on the cast list
