Just wish they didn’t make him an admiral…

Why?! I was hoping he wouldn’t top out as Captain…

Makes him too much like every other captain rather than keeping him where he prefers to be. Theres countless instances where he makes it clear its not the route he wants to take.

I think this is going to be really exciting - and seems to be following loosely the thread of the episode where Picard saw himself in the future on the vineyard as a retired admiral so will be interesting to see where they take this and where the rest of the crew have gone off to across the federation (and if they will pull any of them back into the story…)

I dunno, every captain obviously loves having their own ship. They can’t just all stay as captains forever, it doesnt make sense (like having Riker as a first officer for a decade because he was so comfortable in the role).

I’m really, really looking forward to this. I was a teenager when All Good Things was broadcast, I remember spending my birthday money buying that the Voyager pilot on VHS for a small fortune, before both were broadcast, such a perfect final episode. Michael Chambon is an incredible writer and true Trek fan so I’m excited to see what he does.

I really enjoyed it. I hope the plot holds up of the whole series.

I’m enjoying but not loving it. The second episode has a ridiculous scene of csi style technobabble which almost made me switch off. I hate it when there’s a mystery that’s solved in 2 minutes with magic technology and some very fast typing to decipher all the data in a computer.

I agree. That search scene was ridiculous. Even quicker than the NCIS results searching for fingerprint or dna matches!!

If they kept it real though, it would be a long boring season :rofl:
