I went shopping for a good bottle of plonk this morning to enjoy tonight while I watch Jean Grin

DesLynamsMoustache · 24/01/2020 12:04

Ahhhh, we are binge-watching tonight and I'm so excited!

Des - you cant binge, its just Episode 1 with a new one each week (think there are 10 in total).

DesLynamsMoustache · 24/01/2020 12:57

UGH, WHAT? I guess I'll be waiting till the end of the run then, I hate weekly things!

As if to save me, Sabrina season 3 is on Netflix today so at least I can binge-watch something tonight Grin Will have to avoid Picard spoilers!

I know, I was so disappointed when I realised it was one per week!!

Loved the episode Grin

WingDefence · 24/01/2020 16:56

That was awesome - so many questions just from the end scene!

HalleLouja · 24/01/2020 19:55

Loved it. Was really gripping.

Fannia · 24/01/2020 21:11

Loved it too! I thought it would be rubbish but Sir Patrick carried it off.

Best tele in years!

QueenMabby · 24/01/2020 21:20

Episode was great but unless he says “make it so” and separates the saucer section I’m going to be disappointed. 🤣

WingDefence · 24/01/2020 22:39

DH and I have never binged watched a tv series - honest! We don’t have Netflix but do have Prime but even watched Good Omens over weeks. So this time I was actually really excited to properly watch a series more than one episode at a time. Argh - I cant believe I have to wait until next Friday for the next episode Hmm

I quite like that it's one a week, it reminds me of when I was a kid and TNG first aired - we got excited when it was time for a new episode each week :)

iklboo · 25/01/2020 10:37

Loved it. Really looking forward to next week.

gamerwidow · 25/01/2020 10:39

Such a good start to the series. It's always worrying that these reboots will be lazy nostalgia fests but this series feels like something entirely new.

TheThreeHeadedBeast · 26/01/2020 21:49

Is it just me, but cannot see Picard as a dog person! To me, he would have a cat or something unusual, possibly reptile. Definately not a dog.

iklboo · 26/01/2020 22:11

Maybe it's because Patrick Stewart is a huge dog fan and does a lot of work with rescue dogs, especially pit bulls? It could have been something he particularly asked for, perhaps?

WingDefence · 27/01/2020 09:44

Yes I assumed it was Patrick Stewart's idea. Although I can imagine Picard more of a dog person than a cat one given he lives at a vineyard?

FabulouslyFab · 27/01/2020 17:07

Didn’t Data have a cat?

iklboo · 27/01/2020 17:15

@FabulouslyFab - yes, called Spot

FabulouslyFab · 27/01/2020 19:24

@iklboo 👍

SciFiScream · 27/01/2020 19:32

Watched it. Loved it. Picard is mine BTW I've loved him longer than any of you (31 years now...)

I've always thought Picard would have a more regal dog. The pitbull is Sir Pat interfering IMHO.

Really enjoyed the episode and the Enterprise D made my heart sing. If only...

Looking forward to next episode.

I get so sad that I won't live to see the future as The GBOTG imagined it. I wanna live in a future where Starfleet exists.

Ooh Friday - another episode must be out! :D

iklboo · 31/01/2020 14:50

Looking forward to watching tonight with wine & profiteroles in bed after a crap week Smile
