Seems like they're taking the "what if" concept of Tapestry and a built a season out of it. Could be quiet good...assuming they remember to write out and *plan* the ending this time.

A bit disappointed that Doctor "I Murdered Maddox, and the plot forgot about that", is still there. Never liked her. However, maybe Seven can make up for that with a repeated good performance.

It was a pretty good trailer, but most are nowadays.

Picard's massive combadge made me laugh, it reminded me of those phones with the big keypads that elderly people get.

The symbol/badge Seven had looked familiar but I can't place it.

pixelburp

Yeah my first reaction was about that combadge. Thought it looked Klingon in sorts?

A good trailer but "time has been broken" is a tad melodramatic. I'm cautious, but remain eternally optimistic.

It looks a bit like an Idic with a four point version of the Starfleet Star to me.

Agent Coulson

I'm hoping that as they are filming season 2 & 3 back to back that they actually have and end plan in place for it to finish fully at the end of season 3.

Is that a ring on Seven's wedding finger?

Possibly the Klingons have joined the Federation

Oh God, what if it's Chakotay...that would be an unwelcome surprise reveal!

If it is Chakotay they are keeping it well under wraps

If she was never assimilated, she never met Chakotay. I hope

Maybe she married Raffi between season 1 and season 2.

When John De Lancie spoke gave me goosebumps. However the whole time travel shtick is a bit over done but im excited.

John de Lancie's lookin' well in fairness to him!

Well that trailer has me hyped for season 2 - Q has always been a favourite of mine but my god Picard is looking really old

I expect they will show him young at first, then age him to make Picard feel better or something.


Where's his tradional Q outfit?

pixelburp

Patrick Stewart is 80 after all; IMO he still looks pretty good for that, his voice has cracked a little but that happens. His passing will be one of the few times a celebrity death will genuinely affect me - I'm not looking forward to it

I was on record in saying that a truly bold, brave choice would have been to properly lean into that android-body climax and recast Stewart. FAndom would have probably had a collective aneurism but I see-saw on the fence whether I enjoy doddery 'aul Stewart play Picard well past his dotage.

I'm half expecting Q to go *click* no more android body.

Jesus no, it wouldn't be Picard without Stewart. Having him old is what makes the series, provided the writing is good.

Oh I never said it would be a good idea, just that I'll often respect the brazenness of an insane swing - if not the execution. Like, if the show decided to cast Tom Hardy (again) as young, idealistic and re-energised Picard in an ongoing series of new episodic adventures? I mean, it'd have my attention :pac:

The whole android body thing is such a weird plot point.

Lets kill Picard but only for few minutes and give him a new special body that fixes what killed him but is otherwise indistinguishable from his previous 94 year old body.

Imagine if it was Nog and they created an android body with one leg.

Do we still have to cover season one spoilers?

I suppose as this is the general thread it should stay relatively clean of spoilers I'd say, but as Season 2 may address events from the end of Season 1 it seems difficult to talk of the upcoming season without talking details.

As to the plot point itself? It was a pile of shíte, a cheap move that was almost a carbon copy of the same done in Into Darkness. Feign a "death" for lazy emotional points, then almost intermediately undercut it with a cheat - one that opened up huge ramifications for the universe (not that the "writers" cared)

Has there been a Blu-Ray of season 1 yet? I would buy it if there is any good extra's but if not then it can stay on the shelfs or in the warehouses and will wait till the series has ended and hope for better.

I just hope there is no copy and paste ships in this season or the next one like there was at the end of last season

There is a Blu-ray and it does have some extras.

Brian?

Surely we don't need spoiler tags for series 1 at this stage?
