The PICARD season two hot streak starts to falter as Matt and Andy feel their complaint muscles twitching: why is young Guinan younger than Twain-era Guinan? Why do they keep repeating the same plot beats in the episode over and over? And why would you leave Jurati alone with the Borg Queen? Buckle up for unanswerable timeline talk, folks!
Post your questions/comments here for the next episode of Picard, coming next week!
2022-03-25 00:00:14 +0000 UTC View PostAs advertised, we're posting the TNC TNG episode right here on the Patreon, with the President's Circle getting a BLISTERINGLY fast record-to-post time (for us), to be followed in a couple days by access for the rest of our sweet crew.

2022-03-22 03:22:13 +0000 UTC View PostThis is a special, clear version of the previous pointlessly long-winded post! 🙂 (I deleted the old one, so feel free to sound off on your ideas and jokes again here.)
Basically, everything is the same as before, except now we'll be posting the actual main episode content (currently TNG) on the Priority One Message post AND the President's Circle gets access to that post earlier than the Lieutenants level.
BUT WHERE'S THE FUN IN CLARITY AND EFFICIENCY? This has bee...
2022-03-21 16:06:24 +0000 UTC View PostLook out, Disco - there's a thing out there! Matt hates it and the new uniforms, Andy likes the uniforms and is touched by the Book subplot, and does everybody's hair look great in this episode?

2022-03-18 00:40:40 +0000 UTC View PostThe Picard crew shoot back to the past, as Jurati shows she's more than just comic relief, and Seven finally gets an emotional vacation. Matt meanwhile enjoys the Latin stylings of the subplot and Andy is disappointed with the Borg Queen's return to form.

As requested, in reference to a HAIL from Andy Morgan on TNC episode on "Masks":
"Matt has mentioned how much he loved the lighting in Star Trek: Generations so much (where nearby suns and nebula light the interior of the ship).
It made me wonder if he knows about my favorite unseen part of the Enterprise D: a “walking trail” on the edge of the ship’s saucer section?
When ILM built the Enterpise D model they could not get lights into the edge of the saucer sectio...

Matt and Andy discuss the new dark hellhole of a universe Picard has found himself in, as well as plot rip-offs vs. effective re-explorations, fine performances, and a behind-the-scenes enigma to be explored!
Usually don't have the episode discussion start time on here, but this hailbag is a loooong one (plus an exciting/super annoying peek behind the TNC scheduling scenes and Andy tries his...

JKJK, we're actually enjoying it more than last season already, but nonetheless have plenty of questions like what's Agnes' position on the Star Gazer -- Lt. Murderer? And why are we pretending not to know it's obvs gonna be the Borg at the end? Also -- Matt obsesses about registry numbers for at least 45% of the episode. Admiral Incel...

Mira has decided to deliver the Picard pods WEEKLY, in ADDITION to your monthly helping of an episode of DISCOVERY, an episode of ENTERPRISE, and in the President's Circle two episodes of VOYAGER.
There's been a lot of debate about whether PICARD should go behind the paywall or not (it would most certainly delay more TNG pods to the main feed and we heard some gro...

2022-02-23 07:17:43 +0000 UTC View PostMatt and Andy TAKE COMMAND for season 4 of Discovery. which has a whole new Captain and uniform (for Burnham, like seven costume changes). And are they starting to soften on Disco? Is this the same effect as TNG's uniform switch?

Reed continues to be the least useful, most ready-to-throw-in-the-towel tactical (/armory) officer in the history of Trek (amongst a bunch of runner-ups), the boys discuss the T'Pol emotiveness issue, and Mayweather once again is one of the more competent, if not interesting, crew members.
