I thought he represented a Starfleet admiral, but Picard set me straight on that! Seriously though, he was just another godlike being such as TOS was replete with. It's the good luck of having such a great actor in the role that he became a compelling character, particularly in Q Who where de Lancie...

Transporter mitosis. Surprised Voyager never used that one!

It's the chicken and the egg, Will! Really the thing majorly at fault is the Admonition vision. Made by the super-synths whose foremost concern is the protection of their synth brethren, it gives organics (who are much more likely to find it than synths on the balance of probabilities) the unshakeab...

Riker, though, is not a starfish, unless we're asserting that the energy state the matter is transferred into has a quality that allows total reconstruction from only a part, which come to think of it is a lot like the fractal babble from Star Trek: Picard that means you have all of Data from only a...

It was nice to have a Star Trek ending and NOT a Star Wars ending: the conflict was resolved by intelligence and not ''shoot pew pew". That's exactly what they were going for of course, that Picard wins the day through diplomacy (which I think is what you're getting at; I can't in good conscience c...

I suppose they've made the galaxy feel smaller than it should by introducing the quadrants. I don't know if any are actually approaching canonicity, but we've all seen the maps showing the Alpha coloured in a mix of blue and red, the green Romulan part stretching into the Beta. The Gamma is monolith...

I don't really get the "transporter kills you each time" argument. Yeah, it breaks you down into energy before beaming you across, but we've seen plenty of beings in Star Trek that exist as pure energy; being an energy field is no barrier to being alive. It's the idea that the breaking down kills y...

It's a little late for it now I know, but I am working on a review of season one as a whole atm. It's late because it took me time to fully review the last episode (if anyone's interested the url is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=anCcuRdT3eg and contains all my analysis on the conclusion; worked ou...

I made the title of the thread ambiguous just so I did not unintentionally spoil the ending to ''Picard''. Lets get into some real metahuman discussion here: that man who ends season 1 looks like Picard, sounds like Picard, has the memories of Picard... but he IS NOT Picard. Picard is dead. This is...
