Re: Star Trek: Picard
Yeah there were loads, including Picard’s flute from the Inner Light (S5, E25), the Enterprise-D painting that Picard kept in his ready room, lots of bits and pieces in Crusher’s lab are things she had in her quarters or sick bay on board Enterprise D, and for reasons not yet clear she’s listening to log recordings from The Best of Both Worlds and Encounter at Farpoint. From a universe-expanding point of view there are a couple of interesting developments, including the Myriad codec which turns out to be a ruse from an Enterprise-D mission never actually shown on TV (said to have occurred on Rigel VII, which was the main location for the original series pilot, The Cage, which was also never shown on TV), and the Hellbird virus, said to been deployed against the Enterpise-D by the Borg during the Best of Both Worlds (S3 E26 & S4 E1) though never actually depicted in those episodes.
From a design aesthetic point of view, there are some nice nods back to the Wrath of Khan/Search for Spock/Voyage Home films in costume (especially Crusher’s wide collared jacket), phaser design and even the rectangular nacelles installed on USS Titan-A, which is also said to be Neo-Constitution class (refit) vessel; in the movies Enterprise and Enterprise-A were Constitution class (refit) vessels.
