Star Trek "Picard" series receives an official title, first photo
- Thread starter Cross-Section
- Start date
Through this announcement I found out that Amazon Prime Video does not have Chromecast support.
What the fuck. Trying to help my dad get his Star Trek and they just keep making it harder.

I would have called it Star Trek: Tea, Earl Grey, Hot.
Or Star Trek: Shaka, When The Walls Fell
Or Star Trek: There are Four Lights!
I like the action scenes - 'It's the Enterprise!' is an all-time great movie moment - but I don't think it's captures the characters all that well, and I don't like the Enterprise E. Besides, to get rid of Generations - one of my chief goals here - you need to delete everything that came after it too. The main issue is working around Worf referencing it in DS9, since you gotta keep DS9.
(To be clear, I don't actually expect them to ignore all the movies or whatever. I just wish TNG had finished with All Good Things.)
I hope not. They can toss Voyager and lose pretty much nothing, but DS9 had some major events, Dominion War, I hope they keep.
It'd take place four years after the future shown in All Good Things - 2395 versus 2399 - but they changed that future in the episode.
That future was explained in the episode as Q just messing around.
And never again lol.
Is Picard going to be suffering from memorial loss/ dementia like he did in "all good things"?
Discovery kicks much ass. That show is awesome.
I wouldn't care about this Picard show at all without Discovery, now I'm all in on Star Trek
Going with the most obvious name imaginable is a bit unexciting but you can't really complain. It is what it says on the tin.
Seeing that first new image of Picard (not just Patrick Stewart) is a little surreal. This shit is more to me than endgame but I'm afraid to get hyped.
I'm not too thrilled about that obscured uniform to the right. From what can be seen so far, it basically looks like the VOY era uniform but the color continues up into a collar. Not that different. I was hoping they'd get a little more creative than sticking with the familiar. If it's just the same shit with a new collar that'd be pretty boring. I hope a better look at it reveals it to be more distinct. Or maybe it's a cadet uniform.
Edit: I guess somebody managed to snap another potato pic of the uniforms at some point:

Star Trek: Discovery is apparently going to be set post-Voyager in it's upcoming season from what I've read.

It does look very similar to the TNG-era cadet unis. I'm hoping it's a cadet uniform, or something to that effect, too--I'd like them to try exploring the idea of working the Starfleet delta into the colour pattern again, like with the TNG uniforms. (But, y'know, different 'cause it's new.)
I'll accept your eye roll, even though you are wrong. It is a terrible name.
But I do object to being grouped in with someone who dislikes Disco!

They look a lot like the cadet uniforms from TNG from that angle (from what we can see.)Man, Starfleet just can't make up their mind on uniforms, can they?
I never really loved the later DS9/TNG movie uniforms but I kind of wanted them to stick around so that it wasn't just the monster maroons that got kept for decades.
I mean no. It's the original actor set in a time after the last prime movie. This is the first time Star Trek has been advanced storywise in over 15 years.
Jesus. It would be like not knowing who Jesus is. I think right there are that point I'd just give up on the federation as a lost cause. Kudos Picard for carrying on.
I really enjoyed TNG and watched it each week as they released new episodes. Kinda really don't care about more episodes about Jean Luc Picard. The movies, too, just focused too much on that character. I mean he's a great actor but let's move on.
It's been 17 years since that character. You're totally free to feel that way, I even get it, but, I'm totally ready for more adventures with arguably the best character to ever come out of Star Trek, and best yet, the actor seems excited about it.
If you want just "Star Trek" there are a variety of both movies and tv that will tickle your fancy. Discovery season 2 was amazing.
I like them in part, but especially on DS9 the tailoring on them was all over the place. They looked better than the earlier seasons/VOY ones as more uniforms than jumpsuits, but that's a low ceiling for praise.
Especially First Contact. That movie betrayed Picard's charcter.
It's the final proof that Kirk was the best captain! Everyone forgot about Picard in 20 years, but everyone still remembers Kirk 100 years after TOS.
I like the Tng movie/ DS9/Voyager uniform in the background too. Odd, I mean they were replaced with that ugly dark grey one during the dominion war and later tng films. Maybe those will be made to be just a wartime uniform, hence starfleet switching back to the old ones during this series?
Yeah. The poor DS9 actors got a bit fucked over with the TNG movie leftovers. For a bit.
He has to get an access card from reception to use the bathrooms at Starfleet Academy.
They colloquially call it the Pee Card.
Whoops, I did mean TNG, not TOS.
I was over excited because of the blurry look at uniforms
