Lovin all the Easter eggs they throw into each episode. The Marta Batanides reference was old school. |

I thought about that funny enough I took it to mean star fleet had kinda been fully militarized or had taken over after the thing on Mars? Sure, but, Starfleet is essentially the Navy of the Federation. Where is The Federation in this show? Why hasn't it, with its hundreds of member planets, of various species, launched any kind of investigation into the Mars attack? Why have we seen nothing of Starfleet's slide into xenophobia & racism in terms of flashbacks? I mean, fine, the Mars attack was a flashpoint event, but, this type of isolationism is usually a slippery slope. I could pick nits all day, but, the biggest issue I have is that you have some unbelievably accomplished writers on this staff, and it all just feels so slapped together. I just can't believe the execution here. |

That cube coming through the conduit was pretty great. Fun easter egg: they played the theme to Voyager when Seven appeared after the crash. And the callback to JL's condition was expected...but the severity is much worse than it was in the "All Good Things" on TNG. Great to see Brent Spinner back too. |

Struggling to motivate myself to continue this, but will finish the season. |

At least the Riker/Troi episode was good. |

Mehhhhhh, they projected that pretty hard in the last episode. Super predictable |

"The Picard maneuvre!!....wait, that's already a thing."...good one. Riker's threat to fire on the Romulans was poorly written. Like it was out of some shit Michael Bay movie. And what was with the copy/paste ships when Starfleet showed up? No variety like we've seen in every other series. And no registry numbers on any. Budget musta gotten blown in that previous ep. Wtf was that Handwaviumeter they got to fix the ship? Dumb as hell. And Comander Oh's repeated order to sterilize the planet....when she coulda done it several times already. 4 to be exact. Picard and Data were saying goodbye, that was the closure we needed from Nemesis. Glad they did it. For some reason, hearing Data just say "Goodbye Captain" got to me. |

Thev show had some good moments, but all in all felt like a missed chance of creating something really special. Watching the last episode now. |

The more I think about this show the less sense it all makes. |

I tried so hard to love it, but overall it was pretty meh. Other than Picard & Rios I thought the main casts’ acting was horrifically bad. That said, the final 30 minutes or so of the finale was fantastic. Obvious that the Riker/Picard & Data/Picard scenes would be the best, but they really did deliver. Overall season: 6/10, last half of finale: 9.5/10. Will probably get back on the horse for season 2 but likely with a shorter leash. |

Interesting that 7 and Raffi are coupled up at the end. |

That made no sense whatsoever. They've had little to no interaction and just like that, lets hold hands. |
