Picard - S3 Episode VOX
Apr. 14th, 2023 10:07 pmWorking my way through Picard S3 - it's a mixed bag. Saw both Surrender and VOX tonight.
It has two problems, 1) a blatant Marty Stu (there's something about Beverly Crusher's kids that leads to Marty Stus...) 2) Annoying villain. Although that does switch, except it's confusing, if you watched the previous seasons.
However, the original cast coming together as the leads is well worth the ride. I'd missed them. And they are all old like the OST in the movies were, these, are thin with gray hair.
( spoilers for episodes 8 and 9 )
I'm not sure how many episodes are left - it tends to be between 10-13. So it shouldn't be much more. And this is the last season. They are cancelling Picard with S3 (wrapping it up) and Discovery, continuing with Strange New Worlds, Lower Decks, and a new series - Starfleet. I think they are right to cancel Picard - Patrick Stewart is getting a bit old, and they've pretty much explored all they need to explore with his character at this point - also this season wraps things up nicely. Discovery? I lost interest with it after S3...so there's that. I may go back and finish the first season of Strange New Worlds, and continue with that.
I've got Paramount Plus mainly for the Star Trek stuff. I've not made it to the dark Western content yet, or really anything else. A few movies here and there.
There's too many tv shows - I keep losing track of them.
