Re: Unnamed Star Trek Picard Series
It will be interesting to see where this sits with fans after being off air for so long. Discovery being a bit more fast paced and in your face and the orville being laid back

Re: Unnamed Star Trek Picard Series
Netflix has dropped the ball here I think.

The new series is called Star Trek: Picard https://intl.startrek.com/news/star-...upfronts-title I'll update the thread title accordingly because I am sure there will be much discussion and excitement going forward. |
Re: Star Trek: Picard
Anyhow.
I’m very excited about this. Through Discovery they’ve learned a few lessons about how far you can “visually reboot” Trek without losing the fan base, and Sir Patrick has an exec producer credit on this new show. He’s a damn fine actor, he made Picard what he is, you can be sure he has a very good idea how the character developed post-Starfleet. I think we’re in for a treat. |
Re: Star Trek: Picard
First I am so excited to have Picard back on screens but am gutted it's gone to Amazon.
Secondly there was a screen shot released from the teaser shown to the media and it shows Picard in black with a Starfleet officer/cadet in background wearing what looks like a DS9/Voyager era Starfleet uniform. I think this will keep the visual aesthetic we know. https://www.cableforum.uk/images/local/2019/05/9.jpg |

Jeryi Ryan, Brent Spiner and Jonathan Del Arco will be returning for Picard. It will be good to see Seven of Nine, Data and Third of Five again. |
