Dan Jeannotte proves you wrong with every single scene he steals.

I’m find Paul Wesley strangely unlikable. He looks kinda weird. His movements are odd. Nothing is wrong with him, he just makes me uncomfortable. Would you please share what you like about him? I’d like to get over this weird feeling.

Perfect example of why awards are useless.

The worst star trek TV shows and they still get awards.

Worst? I hardly think that.

SNW is wonderful. It feels like old Star Trek in such a wonderful way that sets it apart from the weaknesses of Discovery, even though it was birthed out of Discovery.

Picard was at worst inoffensive. Slow in places, season 2 was weird, and season 3 was solid albeit looking back at it with a little time, a ton of it was nostalgia and finally wrapping up everything about TNG.

Look, Picard Season 03 was in my opinion done to save that series, the two prior seasons were really bad, so they went finally with what was foolproof, fan-service.

I wouldn’t say there was any need to wrap up anything for TNG, I am not complaining they did, I liked it, but this only happened to save face for the prior two seasons.

Picard was, IMO, not a TV series, but pure fan service. If it hadn’t been for Jeri Ryan, it wouldn’t have been watchable. The third season was the worst.

SNW was clearly made to not offend anybody. Solidly made, no experiments.

Just the right thing to keep an extremely conservative fan base happy.

Discovery had one (big) flaw:

Unnecessary dialogues!

Except for the episodes directed by Jonathan Frakes, they totally ignored the “Show, don’t tell” rule.

1/2

SNW is in the upper tier of Star Trek shows.

How is it possible that Picard got more? What are they watching?

It’s about the basics. More Borg, more awards.

While assimilation is commonly used to crush helpless worlds, just a few nanites can also be used to swing key votes.

I imagine at least part of it is that it’s seen as likely going to be the last opportunity to give the actors, especially Patrick Stewart, these awards.
