We need species 8472 and the emissary
Head to San Francisco in a couple of weeks to meet the Emissary?
I saw this episode already
Should be named Star Trek Picard: Daddy Issues
Hybrid Jurati seems to be acting out like a retro Blondie Rapture lyric, "You go out at night, eatin' cars, You eat Cadillacs, Lincolns too, Mercuries and Subaru, And you don't stop, you keep on eatin' cars, Then, when there's no more cars, You go out at night and eat up bars where the people meet..."
The Borg queen picked Jurati to take over because she knew she was a killer from season one.
Oh that Blondie reference is Sublime. If the writers were thinking of it it's one of the only intelligent things they've come up with. Thank you for the laugh
This Pichard seems like Battlestar galactica a lot of drama,no space adventures
I'm guessing their budget got seriously slashed, therefore, this season, everyone's on modern-day Earth (easy location shoots) in street clothes (easier costume work) with old stock special effects or very minimalist work (eyes turning black which any kid can do with Adobe products).
WHAT THE FUCK!!! She has NO Borg implants or prosthetics! WHERE IS THIS STRENGTH COMING FROM!
Because one has to pay for Paramount plus, I thought to see what else I can get for my money won't we suffer through the meanderings of Star Trek Picard. I am watching Star Trek the motion picture director's cut, and even though the film has a reputation of being a failure, it is actually scene-by-scene, character by character, idea by idea, a hundred times better than Star Trek Picard
I was so stunned at her running across car hoods I couldn’t react fast enough with my weapon … geesh, was this made in the 1970’s?
Its just poor writing.
@Rob Roy 3 minute click bate.
@@BobBob-kr5wr That's it, eat up all that tasty misery, keep watching these clips.
Nom nom nom.
Welp if people get triggered it must follow everyone everywhere must also get triggered instantly every time so there's no conflict of reasoning or common sense if two hard bitten characters seemingly can't react on time-worn training and instinct _before_ puking their guts out/getting wasted like most comparable PTSD sufferers who survive dangerous professions and substance abuse as long as they have. Its definitely not shite writing. Shut up🤷♂️
Car boots, not bonnets.
Now imagine the "worst" S2E8 clip. :D
She's not fully converted, so it's still mostly Agnes in there. Here's how I think this will go down --
Right now Agnes is fighting to retain control of herself and her body. The Queen thinks she's winning, but Agnes is proving just how much stronger her will is, and it's causing the Queen difficulty. But also, Agnes later has the opportunity to assimilate Adam Soong, only she doesn't. She has two options here, I think, upon assimilating the mercenaries under Soong's employ -- one, she could program the primitive nanoprobes she's generating to compel the mercs to obey her and not the Borg Queen, and two, because she's exerting more direct influence than the Queen is prepared to anticipate, she doesn't need to reprogram her nanoprobes because she'll be working through the Queen, using her and her new collective to ensure the Europa Mission succeeds. With less than twenty-four hours to go before launch, the window to ensure the mission goes according to plan is swiftly narrowing, but as long as Agnes remains Agnes and can get the job done, then there'll be no problems. A Queen will die, but a new one will rise and change everything.
When the crew were still in the dark confederation future, Jurati's pet project was studying the borg queen. Her confederation counterpart must have amassed tons of data from her various "experiments," data that may not have been available anywhere else. I'm sure that someone as smart as Agnes took the opportunity to download and review all of her counterpart's notes and research results, so I bet there are a few things that she knows that the audience does not , things that will be useful in defeating the borg queen.
The Borg are refugees in that reality, so she's just trying to survive against the hateful Confederation. Nobody is safe from them.
I'm re-watching season 1 DS9 now to cleanse my brain of this badly written corporate franchise rape.
that episode of Deep Space Nine is about the difference between species who exists in linear and nonlinear time. I've always thought that was absolutely fascinating and sometimes makes me think of the past and of people in my family I've lost and whether there's a way that time could be collapsed and we can't be victimized by change with seems to move so rapidly without our knowing it. In other words, that is a profound philosophical show with serious excellent actor has led by Professor Avery Brooks and a host of other great Ensemble performance. Yes watching quality theater on screen like that is bound to cleanse the brain of Star Trek Picard and it's Hollywood hipster snark.
The scenes with Q and the ones with Picard and the fbi agent were good.
I'm going to watch it later but from what you're saying it turns out the FBI agent was not the same officer from the USS relativity?
Only Q’s scene was good…the rest was not.
I love the actor who plays the FBI agent and I actually thought his reminiscence about meeting the Vulcans was pretty credible and thoughtful science fiction so I had no problem there. But they missed a tremendous opportunity to have him be one of the crew members of the USS relativity apart the same actor played, which would have brought in Captain Braxton and that fantastic memory of seven of nine but the show is not thinking in terms of that sort of synthesizing wit and Ingenuity. They hired the same actor because they liked him but they didn't exploit who he really was in Voyager history.
Best Scenes? I was expecting it to just be 5 minutes of a black screen
Well, lots of commenters said they wanted that bar guy dead lol.
slim pickings for best scenes of this episode
🤦♂️🤦♂️This show is SO BAD. :( another episode with almost no plot advancement. Just characters dealing with their feelings 🙄
😯!… (🤔?…)
Also in 2024, somewhere in the Delta Quadrant is that Borg Queen… I wonder if she becomes aware of her timeline hopping and time traveling counterpart 🤔
Stop putting more thought into this than the entire writing room did. You'll just annoy yourself for no other effect.
@@johnassal5838 it has to awful on purpose otherwise what is this
They had the perfect moment to rid the show of Raffi…and they choked.
Really good actress and really good character as initially conceived. Now they have her as Just a bitter brokenhearted ex-lover of seven of nine who's constantly going on about how emotionally unsatisfied she is at having been dumped. I want to see her working as a thoughtful officer and as a leader and as a Starfleet character with all the Brilliance and Ingenuity of Scotty or Captain Janeway or B'Elanna Torres or Lieutenant Uhura. I want to see her as a thoughtful active problem-solver not as someone who is so trapped in her own misery that she can't achieve anything as an officer. It's really an unsuccessful waste of the actress's great energy and Theatrical instincts.
Yeah, some "Fight", lol.
As bad as season 1 was at least it felt like it was trying to be Star Trek at times. Season 2 started out promisingly but has completely collapsed into this farce. Watching the "queen" munch down on car batteries made me roll my eyes so hard it hurt. It's just bad fanfiction at this point.
Don't think "eating" so much as "sniffing" those ions.
Those phasers LOOK like guns… remember when they used to use weapons that resembled a small box that was non-threatening? It could even be concealed in the hand so they could (if they wanted to) walk around holding it in public without an outcry of alarm. (Yes, I mean the type one phasers) That’s why I never could figure out why StarFleet never developed weapons that resembled ordinary small objects like rocks or a pen. (rocks are better as they are on every world they might go to, even in their own century) The watchers teams use those “servos” that look like pens, and they have the benefit of having a “derp” kind of stun setting that doesn’t even knock out the target, just makes them stand there all goofy like causing no alarm in passerby who might otherwise raise an alert. How is the Federation that idiotic to not develop such weaponry? Especially for any possible temporal incursions?
If she'd been fully transformed they'd have both been Assimilated before they could even move. Also, Raffi didn't get her phaser up in time because Jurati is her friend-she wants her back, not dead. I do have to say, though, that I didn't see Seven's anger with Raffi manipulating people around her coming. They've been together for, what, two years? This just doesn't seem like the time-but, then, Seven was Assimilated at six years of, almost fifty years ago, we'll never know exactly what the Borg put her through and made her do. If tapping into that part of herself doesn't trigger her? Nothing will.
Uh, just noting here, didn’t the Borg put the youngsters they assimilate into “maturation chambers” to speed up their growth cycle till they’re fully grown in a few months? In the timeline of the “Raven” episode on Voyager, I don’t see how some private researchers at the very discovery point of the Borg could have developed stealth technology that camouflages them so well (that didn’t get confiscated by StarFleet) then get assimilated, along with Annika, and she naturally grew from 6 years to the mid to late 20s woman she became without being forcibly fast-aged for a while. I’m thinking Seven probably lost at least a decade that way, probably more depending on how long it took her parents to find out about the Borg to begin with (you know StarFleet would’ve classified that $h!t at the beginning to prevent a public panic with wild speculations) then develop that stealth tech.
Basically I’m doubting that “fifty years ago” statement.
@@turbopokey Seven's parents found the Borg long before Starfleet did, they were so arrogantly brilliant that when the Cloak that hid them away from the Borg failed they never considered it might blow up so horribly in their faces, it seems. That's why Seven was an adult when Voyager first encountered her-she was likely the first Human child ever Assimilated, twenty-odd years earlier.
Which means the Borg likely used her to figure out how to safely "age up" captured Human children...
Terminator Jurati.
I think Stewart, like Nemoy did at times, regreted his playing of Our beloved captain and he KNEW that this would kill his character off.
so bad ass man
Let’s waste Lt. Ducane from Relativity!
I don't know, this is just not good. The writing sucks.
Im sorry but these are supposed to be *experienced* and *somewhat jaded* professionals who've long since made their first hard life and death call _even involving a freind_ ....so why TF can they go from discussing the possibility of having to kill her to being deer in headlights while the same somebody they JUST acknowledged they might have to kill comes charging at them???
Neither of these characters AS WRITTEN would hesitate to shoot her in both legs _BEFORE_ trying to have a cuddle not *after.*
Well, that was a bipolar interlude. I keep thinking that the Jeri Ryan - Raffi scenes are supposed to be farce and parodies - but apparently they're serious. Go figure.
I remember in the late 90s and 2000s when fans complained about the shitty quality of Star Trek Voyager and Enterprise, and how Rick Berman and Brannon Braga were ruining everything. But looking back, those shows now look pretty good, at least they both LOOKED and FELT like Star Trek, despite the low quality. This show isn't even close to being what Star Trek is about, or was about. This is just a bunch of actors and writers picking up a paycheck.
Voyager was the best then ds9.
Voyager is the best Star trek series.
_"I remember in the late 90s and 2000s when fans complained about the shitty quality of Star Trek Voyager and Enterprise..."_
Yeah, I remember too. I also remember people moaning about _TNG,_ every Trek film, the _Star Wars_ prequels, heck, there were LotR snobs who wouldn't shut up just because Jackson cut Bombadil out of a 3-hour film. And I can't help but notice the irony of people looking back at what people said about _Voyager_ and _Enterprise,_ then turning around and saying the exact same things about the current generation of Trek content.
Mark my words, in 10-15 years another Trek show or film will roll around, people will compare it to _Discovery_ or _Picard_ and moan that they're "ruining" the franchise. Again. Sci-Fi and fantasy fans tend to be terrible at self-reflection.
@@MMuraseofSandvich exactly, when DS9 started transmisions all people complained about how Gene's , TOS ando TNG legacy were screw up. Same with Voyager when none of the usual aliens species were currrently on the show, with ENT the same cuase "doesn't feel like a trek show" always the same storie , the fans can't enjoy what they already have.
And to think those shows are better than this too. Just shows that you can make Trek worse than it used to be.
Let us assume that the Borg Queen has the ability to place her own essence into Jurati's body. Fair enough.
[ In the Star Trek TOS episode called "Turnabout Intruder", Dr. Lester's essence was placed into Captain Kirk's body, and simultaneously Captain Kirk's essence was placed inside Dr. Lester's body. Such was accomplished via an alien device. As such, Captain Kirk's essence operated Dr. Lester's body, mouth, voice, hands, etc., and Dr. Lester's essence operated Captain Kirk's body, mouth, voice, hands, etc. ]
Let us assume that the Borg Queen, and the Borg drones have super strength, due to the various Borg implants. Fair enough.
Let us assume that Jurati's essence is still inside Jurati's body. Though, much weaker than the Borg Queen's essence. The Borg Queen's essence is now operating Jurati's body, and Jurati's essence is merely a passenger. Fair enough.

( one's essence )
Jurati's body contains the Borg Queen's essence, not Borg technology. Therefore, Jurati cannot have super strength. Such stoopid writing.
If the reader has difficulty with the above confusing tripe, then look at the example of Bruce Banner and the Incredible Hulk.
Bruce Banners body has the ability to exert normal human strength. Whereas, the Hulk's body has the ability to exert super human strength.
When the Hulk is present, Bruce Banner's essence is inside the Hulks body, and super human strength is present.
When Bruce Banner is present, the Hulk's essence is inside Bruce's body, and normal human strength is present.
The Hulk's essence cannot make Bruce Banner's body exert super human strength. Such would be ridiculous.
( the Hulk's essence inside Banner's body ) = ( the Borg Queen's essence inside Jurati's body )
Unless Borg technology is present in Jurati's body, Jurati cannot have super human strength. Again, poor writing skills. Star Trek Picard sucks!
Here is a digression. Consider the entire Borg Collective versus the comic version of the Incredible Hulk. The Borg will be able to inject their nanites into the Hulk's body, via Borg tubuals. Such will make the Hulk angrier and much more resistant. The Hulk's body will expel the Borg Nanites, and the Hulk will begin to smash the Borg Drones. It may take awhile, but the Hulk will eventually smash the entire Borg collective.
@ℂ'𝕖𝕤𝕥 𝕊𝕚 𝔹𝕠𝕟!, thank you for reading my "book."
@ℂ'𝕖𝕤𝕥 𝕊𝕚 𝔹𝕠𝕟!, here are some crossover movies that my son and I would like to see:
* the comic book Hulk vs the comic book Superman (pre god form),
* the comic book Hulk vs Godzilla,
* the comic book Hulk vs Saitama,
* DC crossover with Star Trek,
* Marvel crossover with Star Trek,
* Star Trek crossover with classic Battlestar Galactica (1978 series), and many more.
@ℂ'𝕖𝕤𝕥 𝕊𝕚 𝔹𝕠𝕟!, in my opinion, with respect to comic book Hulk vs Saitama, and comic book Hulk vs Superman. The long, arduous battle ends in a stalemate, with a fantastic amount of collateral destruction to the planet, unless the Hulk rips Saitama and or Superman in two.
In the battle of comic book Hulk vs Godzilla, such long arduous battle also ends in a stalemate. Such includes utter destruction of a planet, as a result of continuous smashing.
What the fuck is this shit? Borg Queen is now a martial arts master? It’s like the people writing this have never watched Star Trek (which I think isn’t far from the truth)
Two of the creators worked on Star Trek: Discovery and all three worked on Star Trek : Short Treks, and one is working on the next series Star Trek: Strange New Worlds.
@@absynthefaerie yes, that’s probably why they are all dogshit.
@@absynthefaerie so, none of them worked on Star Trek
@@absynthefaerie So, none of them worked on Star Trek. Just their own TV shows they called star trek. Got ya 👍
@@absynthefaerie Soooo... Adam S's suspicions are correct then?
In voyager Q joked about women doing away with all the men
Looks like he was foreshadowing
Next time, on Days of Our Lives.
She took out that hottie. What a bummer. And wait a sec...so My Stepmother is an Alien could've been Borg as well?
Man, this show is an embarrassment.
I simply can't enjoy the entire plot with data's ancestor. The worst movie next to Insurrection is Star Trek Nemesis which is again Brett Spiner trying to contribute some theme about Android life and that sort of nonsense. I thought it was very well done in the Next Generation when data wanted to make a daughter. But that one show is far better than anything else that Brent Spiner has creatively contributed to. The whole plot of his weird ancestor creating cloned girls is just completely stupid and has nothing to do with the main plot of the show. The main plot of the show also has very little to do with the main plot of the show.
Hollywood still doing the neck lift thing?
I think Seven of nine is going to have a major part in this than we think or being lead away from!
to have two people who where once borg Picard and Seven and how they played key moments with the borg doe example Sevens helping destroying the trans warp worm holes to stop the borg from traveling anywhere...
Did they make the giant poodle hair smaller because I ridiculed it?
Jurati is still in their
Was anyone else cheering for the borg queen during this scene, cause i certainly was.
Yep!
😆
Soooo tired of these characters being weak emotional wrecks.
They’d be better off assimilated. 🙄
More than you can imagine…and then she choked.
Shes basically the only character all season written with consistent motivations or any consistency at all for that matter.
"Can you not..." ? So now we have a rehabilitated borg from the future using contemporary idioms as if her own. By what ? Osmosis ?
I want to make a joke, but this is just bad and upsetting.
This is not my post Voyager Seven. You have ruined her. There is no way She would be reduced to this. Shame on you for writing this.
it's literally not post-Voyager seven. She was never a borg in this timeline
She was never borg, so it makes sense, I mean if you get bitch slapped hard enough you too would be dazed and wtf
@@JasonBoyce physically not a Borg, but mentally only!
@@JasonBoyce Still the same character, just in another body. Like everyone else.
And timelines notwithstanding there's no reason to vacate the character of substance and meaning and significance and to give the actress nothing to work with in terms of theatricality or Artistry or meaning.
This is what passes as the best of Star Trek these days? No. Just no.
Some shows are deep and complex and exist to make us think. Others are action-packed, explosive, and exist so we can shut our brains off and be entertained. This show somehow manages to be neither deep nor entertaining. I have no idea who actually enjoy this show.
Has the whole Star Trek universe been really action packed…….No………I’m personally enjoying this season.
@Rob Roy Hey now! DS9 had a ton of amazing episodes before the Dominion War arc. I'm not sure what you mean by "after the dominion war" though seeing as how the war doesn't end until the final episode. But regardless, as bad as 90's Trek was at times, Jar Jar Abrams era Trek really is hitting all new lows.
vutpa is Klingon for kitchen. Why is it on a dumpster?
The season started out with such promise........I barely made it through ep 8......It was bad.....I mean really bad......Could care less about the Borg Queen, Soong or even Q
Yes I agree, and these plots sort of eat away at each other and confound and confuse and dilute one another. you can almost see the great actor who plays Q John D, straining through the bad writing in an attempt to give a meaning that isn't there. I'll bet between scenes he thought oh heavens I have to summon all my theatrical power to try to get some credibility and depth to this poorly written and poorly conceived set of scenarios. but even an actor of his majestic power can't create drama and relevance that isn't shaped by the surrounding narrative and by the actual writing and various dramatic scenarios that he's part of. but you can almost see him trying to command the lightning and rage much like King Lear does in a world of chaos from a narrative standpoint.
That is definitely JERI RYAN but NOT 7 of 9
Yes a talented actress who had created a fascinating and deeply complicated character in Voyager is now simply reduced to standing around trying to use facial expressions and getting a line every now and then, while she mainly functions as the object for Raffi's anger.
Star Trek in its ideal and most successful form is a show to be watched enjoyed, felt and contemplated. This program, despite the name Star Trek, is really only good for having on in the background while you're balancing your checkbook.
EP 1 and 2 were great. Now its a Matrix spin off really.
Could it be the borg Queen is starting the nugenix wars which means that she's responsible for creating khan and his crew
Are you trying to say "Eugenics"?
@@lovipoekimo176 However you say the war that khan and his people started
I'm confused, is this Firefly or Picard, cause I think I saw this supreme chick killer plotline once before...
@P. Phan
😆!
This season is a scam. It's all filler just to get to Season 3. This isn't science fiction. End this show already.
What? And have season 3 two years down the road? No thanks
@@larryhatcher8927 Who cares about S3? Nothing here matters.
Oh Bull, this show is quite good, especially compared to season 1, and don’t even get me started with discovery… this is the best Star Trek thing to come out since enterprise ended. And I’m glad others seem to agree with me. I’m going to guess you are either a big discovery fan, or TOS fan, who hates any other form of Star Trek?
@@Aidanhatesyouall No. I'm just a person of average intelligence who likes shows where it isn't 10 episodes of filler and characters doing nothing. What about this season was better? The dumb, pointless "Heat" chase? The weird, awkward "Pan's Labyrinth" scenes with goblins? Or how about that weird "Conjuring" scene with Guinan? Nah. Season 1 was nihilistic garbage and this season is just wasting time with pointless filler to get to season 3. So obvious why they released the S3 trailer so early, they had already checked out of this one. So no, "Eugene." I gave this show a chance. TWO in fact and now we're at the point where Star Trek is now dark fantasy. This isn't science fiction. It is trash. But hey, glad I could help you understand.
I must agree. I thought the first three episodes were interesting, then it really spun in. The Benatar cover song number was right out of The Goldbergs. They really haven't advanced the plot in four hours.
Then this scene with wire fighting chicks and an evening dress with army boots is right out of movie Charlie's Angels.
The last couple have been a sampler of every popular SyFy show X Files, Fringe, Six from Galactica, Guinan is a voodoo lady now...
The whole Picard arrest was X Files right down to the FBI basement room and childhood close encounter flashback. Too bad they didn't hire Duchovny and Anderson to reprise the part.
The characters are all go I ng though almost the same things the actors went through in S1. Maybe Agnes will drink ipicac, fall down and spew the Queen out.
It is goofy.
Why the hell is she in a flowing red dress with combat boots?
Arguing in front of a corpse, once again the stupidity of Nu Trek is boundless. And that wasn't a fight, merely the combined elements of bad dialogue and chronic stupidity.
Why is Raffi even on board the ship other then to play helpless damsel? I thought Starfleet trained personnel to fight.
Just end the season already!
This is fucking awful. This isn't Star Trek. At all.
Why isn't it? Please go into detail as to why it isn't
@@optchurch1402 Well, for starters Star Trek was supposed to be positive. Hope for humanity. We have gone from tremendously insightful episodes in TNG from the likes of the Drumhead, The Measure of a Man, The Inner Light and in DS9 The Siege of AR558 and the issues with Nog facing up to his own mortality to this hackless bullshit. The writing is simply and utterly awful, the dialogue sounds often as if its been written by a fucking 7 year old, and as a writer myself it gets on my wick. I could go on......but if you need it explaining to you as to why this isn't Trek, then........*shrugs*
BEST SCENES??!!! The show is beyond trash, "best scenes"....that's like taking a huge dump and picking out the cutest turd
Why is this video so long?
Hi @D.W. The video is long because had I cut the first part out, the viewer may not know that Agnes-Borg is a killer.
In the fight scene at the end of the clip, I felt it important to convey that both Raffi and Seven knew Agnes-Borg to be a killer. It makes the fight that much more intense. That said, I certainly agree the scene was long. Perhaps I should have tightened it up. I'll work hard to try to do better. Thanks for your comment and your channel support!
@@IW2MTV I know you're trying to run a channel here, but please don't pretend that there's anything interesting about scenes like this. Trek is dead and this is just yet another nail in the coffin. The writing and characters are so awful that it isn't even up to par with bad fanfiction at this point.
MMMMMM SEVEN!❤❤❤
Looks HAWT in the red, hmm, if that info in the BSG remake is from this particular universe, could Jurati have a very distant ancestor from the "six" skinjob series?
This show is a joke. How inferior to real Trek...
Sooooo as Jurati is walking away Raffi's phaser is lying close by Seven. You would think Seven -- given her ability to take hard hits in combat -- like when she was on the Borg cube -- would scramble over to the phaser and shoot Jurati in the back. And also Jurati just walks away from Raffi and Seven without taking any evasive action -- and in clear line of sight. But nooooooooooo. Man, even with the stiff reactions of the TOS Animated series -- the reactions were faster than this crap. BTW, the TOS Animated series story lines even made better sense than this crap. SMH.
seven was never a borg in this timeline
@@JasonBoyce Nevertheless -- Seven is still a Borg at least by proxy of her original timeline because she has complete memories of her time in the collective. As well, Seven -- as was shown in the scene -- can quickly assess the Borg Queen's mindset in killing the dude -- and what she is still incapable of -- assimilation. Also when Raffi explains what a cell phone battery is comprised of -- Seven seems to have a PTSD moment and then explains how stabilizing metals are used in the assimilation process. Which, I wouldn't use a lithium ion battery in a assimilation process because lithium is not a stabilizing metal as it can under certain conditions explode. Also lithium ions as Raffi refers to it is not a stabilizing metal -- but it actually refers to how a lithium ion battery works. But hey -- that's what poor writing and research will get you . Like I said -- Seven could have scrambled over to the phaser and shot Jurati.
@@JasonBoyce not physically, but mentally
@@RynardMooreVstar1 Pain tolerance can only go so far, and seven doesnt have any implants. Where-as borg Jurati already as super strength and agility. Theres a big difference between borgs strength and an unassimilated humans strength. Not to mention seven likely had implants giving her the ability to take hits easier as a borg. A concussive hit is not a laughing matter, in fact seven is lucky to be alive after that kind of impact; you can die from concussive force even if you seem to be fine hours after the impact from internal bleeding and swelling if the concussive force was to the brain.
Borg seven could probably handle a nearby explosion or even a 9mm to the chest, completely human seven probably not so much.
'So, are we just going to lie here and watch her walk away?'
'Yep.'
'Just checking.'
Trash writing
That's like the cool hipster snark that these Hollywood writers with their pork pie hats and their cool goatees and their hipster trips to vintage stores on Melrose and their studied superficiality think sounds cool and like relatable to like gen y or gen Z or some such gen
If only they had a man with them
Lol
What...is...this...shit
Guess we are stuck with a “nothing special about 7 of 9 anymore”.
What do I look like?
Hmm. I don’t know. A person that spend 20+ years of her early life as Borg?
If they were going to normalize Seven into a weak lesbian gf for Raffi, I would have preferred her not be in this series at all.
God awful.
The more scenes I see, the more I realize that I do not want to watch this soap opera.
This show is worse than discovery.
At this point, let the Borg Queen assimilate it all. No Starfleet, no Federation, no Star Trek. None of it makes sense, anyway.
It looks utterly boring
Well boring is not its biggest problem it's rather a matter of incoherence, with too many forced subplots that don't go anywhere and don't integrate well and don't Squareup well with canonical understanding of Star Trek. There is an old episode of The Next Generation where some tricky con woman pretends to be a God and wants to claim a planet. She uses different kind of magic tricks and transporter effects to scare the people, and Captain Picard in a note of very British condescension describes her as obvious. Very interesting when people use the word obvious to condemn someone for being well, obvious , that is without sophistication but with all the pretense of depth , relevance and meaning. This season of Star Trek Picard is obvious.
@@user-xu4ow3bu6f exactly, all that incoherent and obvious militancy that is shoved down, rather than telling a mature story with good characters that don't psychoanalyze themselves whole day long while doing stupid, irrational or plain immature childish things - like eloquent schizophrenic simpletons.. It bores me.
@@HawkFest1 yes in this sense it is boring because it is predictable and provides no thrill. So I'm totally on board with your characterization. I think I said elsewhere in these comments that this is a really good show to balance your checkbook to or catch up on some vacuuming or Stacks the tupperware by size and color. Good to have it on in the background because it's Star Trek after all and you want to see if something interesting happens but by no means should one Focus. Now the lower decks is a bit different because it is full of so many Easter eggs and references that you really have to be alert and it does in fact provide some real pleasure in viewing and a greater service to fans.
Star Trash at it's finest.
Such horrible acting. The actors should be ashamed
This raises an interesting question that some of you here may know more about than I. If the script is bad in the Situation's ridiculous and the show so reductive and uninspired, can actors really make anything out of it. John D. ,the actor who plays Q, says that his favorite old Star Trek episode is a Spock's brain because the script is so bad and the actors have to make it good by the sheer force of theatrical will. I think the actors here don't have a very strong sense of will to turn the rubbish that they are presented into anything of dramatic or philosophical or spiritual value. So yes terrible acting though it's caused is in the failure of the imagination of the writers and their Reliance on their own narcissistic virtue signalling.
@@user-xu4ow3bu6f wow, you articulated it perfectly. I wish they would hire you.
I LOVE tng. Q is bad ass, picard is god, guinan is top 5 of tng. This show was a p.o.s.. I am so upset!!!!
@@TheDragon160 yes and I firmly believe that people come here for comfort and some like-mindedness from other viewers who have value the show and it's tremendously satisfying, intelligent, and deeply fulfilling artistry for the last fifty or sixty years. I think the only consolation is a shared sense of disappointment at how disastrous this most recent manifestation is. Thank you for your kind commentary.
@@user-xu4ow3bu6f you are a wordsmith!
This show is so horribly written.
The only thing that could save this show is the Borg Queen acquiring those nano probes on Europa! and assimilating earth, let season 3 fix it!
The Borg Queen from episode 1 is ______________? Q
Nothing can save this show. Nuke it from the orbit.
