evidently the bad picard (grrrr scowls) and the good picard (smiles ineffectually, unsure what's going on) are going to sidney-carton the french revolution in two different directions

You mean they might finally admit that he's Wesley's real dad? And Wesley would come back from Travellerland, or wherever he ended up? That would be cool.
Nooooooo! I never went in for THAT particular theory, and my interest in Bev/Picard was strictly within the timeline of TNG (I have a great fondness for "Attached").

I’m burning this motherfucker down if Wesley shows up

I dunno, I always liked that tease of the Traveller story that never really got follow up, I recall I thought it might come up at one point in Disco and never did.

as long as they don’t bring back that gross archaeologist chick from Risa i dont care
Oh my god, she was the WOOOORST. It was like they were going for a Raiders vibe and landed somewhere around Hooten and the Lady (a show I have never seen, obviously).

sir pat stew didn't think that archaeologist chick was gross o_O
― mookieproof, Wednesday, 16 March 2022 15:18 (two years ago) link
To bring it back full circle, Vash (the "archaeologist chick") ended up palling around the universe with Q (in an ersatz Doctor/companion thing) on DS9.

Intrigued about this now. I bailed on Picard season 1 before the two-part finale. Do I *have* to go back and watch that before season 2?
― Chuck_Tatum, Thursday, 17 March 2022 18:19 (two years ago) link
I watched the first 10 mins of season 2 and was, like, Ok! He's back on the farm, so I guess nothing big happened, also the theme tune is bad now.
I just don't want to see any of the new crew, ever, except Orla Brady. Unless they're ok now?
― Chuck_Tatum, Thursday, 17 March 2022 18:21 (two years ago) link
I don't think you really need to have seen the s1 finale for s2 so far -- might be worth reading a synopsis and then immediately facepalming.
Nu-crue:

lol i think this is a good assessment

oh and i need clarification on thisare we definitely sure that Rios is NOT timothy olyphant?

Elnor's actor is really limited and so he's being used as comic relief
Well...that changes.
― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 17 March 2022 20:27 (two years ago) link
man, ICE is just as terrible in 2024
― mh, Thursday, 17 March 2022 22:39 (two years ago) link
choosing the borg queen over elnor is the correct choice sorry if this offends

I feel like I missed something there, speaking of which. Why is Raffi in such hysterics?
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Sunday, 20 March 2022 00:17 (two years ago) link
because she sucks
― mookieproof, Sunday, 20 March 2022 00:31 (two years ago) link
imagine choosing between a good friend you were on an epic adventure with last season and BQ and the first thing Picard does is makes a snap judgmentI mean, it’s right, but damn
― mh, Sunday, 20 March 2022 01:15 (two years ago) link
I don't think this season is reinventing any warp drives but so far it's been 3/3.

i feel like the Rios part of the plot is going to be a leadweight on an otherwise good story
― terminators of endearment (VegemiteGrrl), Sunday, 20 March 2022 03:15 (two years ago) link
tbh 2024 being generally shit even outside of this watcher/divergence in time business is going to be part of the backdrop and having one character have stakes in that is probably a necessity

is this going to be about brexit again? q changed timeline so that double brexit happens?
― adam t. (abanana), Sunday, 20 March 2022 23:03 (two years ago) link
sorry to say it, but I think all of the screenwriters are american and virtually none of us give a crap about brexit. I’d estimate if you asked what “brexit” is on the street, the vast majority people would have no idea what that isI’m obviously sympathetic and not in that group, but
― mh, Sunday, 20 March 2022 23:15 (two years ago) link
counterpoint: brexit on infinite earths
― mark s, Sunday, 20 March 2022 23:23 (two years ago) link
i’d watch that, no matter how boring it’d be

ha theres an artist who does up a bunch of celebrities in old military garb like that (this is actually probably their work), my gf has a bunch of them in little prints (and a terrifying tim minchin one as our shower curtain)

OK this show is getting quite interesting! I figured out who Picard would encounter, it was pretty obvious. Bit baffled by Q's bit at the end. Trying to figure out whats going to happen!
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Thursday, 24 March 2022 09:19 (two years ago) link
from knowing the music of LA, I assume the Watcher is Dr. Dre

oh wait, just thought of the obvious one. will watch and find out!

I enjoyed this ep but it occurs to me now what was bugging me:
He meets Guinan at the bar at 10 Forward st (heh) and she seems to never have met him before, but he met her in the 19th century in that NextGen episode?
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Thursday, 24 March 2022 21:30 (two years ago) link
Scene on the bus = roffle.
― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 24 March 2022 22:09 (two years ago) link
Actually - was it the same actor?
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Thursday, 24 March 2022 22:18 (two years ago) link
For some weird reason IMDB has no detail up yet for this ep so I cant confirm.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Thursday, 24 March 2022 22:19 (two years ago) link
I don't think it was, I figured more of a spiritual cousin, as it were.
