The fact shatner hates RLM and Picard continues to be mediocre at best is truly a time to be alive in

@@justtheaverageone3840 It's very very slightly above mediocre.

The new showrunner, Terry Matalas, did claim to be a fan of RLM around the time of the premiere of Picard season 2. Make of that what you will.

They know how to cater to their entire fan base👍

Seeing Rich looking better and better is cool as hell.

They have been assimilated by the Kurtzman cube.

the story arc isn't over yet... Rich be like "[Star Trek] promised he won't beat me anymore, but do i take him back?" this arc isn't meant to end in reconciliation if you follow the trajectory of parallel stories.

Who gives a shit about their thoughts? Seriously.

@@asdffdsa541 It reminds me of game of thrones where the only thing it really had going for it was sex, violence and a wise cracking midget then as soon as they strayed from the book formula it went from mediocre/passable to dogshit garbage. I mean seriously go to the earlier seasons of game of thrones, cut out the sex and violence and ask yourself if you think its a good show or your brain got tricked by appealing to base human desires.

I finally watched the show. I was confused because it was spoiled so thoroughly that i swore i had already seen it.

Well if Red Letter Media is giving this Season the OK, than I guess I'll give a good 15min shot.

*"Star Track"

Same. I watch RLM Star Trek videos despite never having watched more than a couple episodes of TOS because I've never been as devoted a fan of any series as they are of ST, and I find their passion endearing.

I agree. I hope the RLM bois have him on one day

Anyone have any idea how much Wheaton is being paid for his 'role' in these shows? It's almost like Paramount is throwing him a bone not to be complaining on social media about how he has had no role in any of the new Treks (other than that lame walk-on at the end of S2).

@@uscdave1124 yeah! Like capt. Jellico. Damn, what is that old bastard up to these days...?

THAT was cringe worthy.

That did feel like Picard, I agree. Patrick Stewart is so friendly and warm that people forget often that Picard is not warm and not friendly. Even when he's being diplomatic there is still a distance.

A lot of Picard's dialogue this season feels like authentic Picard. The way Picard confronted Beverly, the way Picard interrogated Jack Crusher, the way Picard handled Shaw's rant, the way Picard argued with Riker. All of it feels like the Picard we all know from TNG.

Yet it still sucks.

@@greggasiorowski1326 I disagree! Definitely better than S1+2!

​@@johnnyjohnny-cg7np😘

You mean so beaten down by bad content that they consider the third season of Picard 'good enough to watch the rest of the season veeery cautiously'. So wholesome -.-

@@johnnyjohnny-cg7np Oh, no worries there. The sociopaths in charge have zero idea what Star Trek is.

The key to fixing what's going wrong in media right now is recognizing that the franchise name is meaningless. If we could truly get people to grasp this, it would solve -studios rehashing old IPs despite them being unrecognizable in the final product which wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't meant to be that IP -people trusting anything with the name on it -people mistrusting anything with the name on it, causing the studios to consider the IP poison somehow, instead of the idiots that ruined it etc. We've gotta look at the creative team behind stuff, and not the fact that it's technically part of the same program. Comic book fans have been doing this for ages. They understand "the (name) run" is the best part of a given superhero team's story, not just anything with those characters in it. And nobody looks at "ooh the latest drop from (record label)!" they care about the actual specific band. and not so much, once that band's members die off and get replaced.

Those are the best friends to have. Watching the fall and downward spiral is always entertaining.

​@@KairuHakubi This is contributes to why so many shows don't end when they should and instead drag on until they stop being good. In Japan, animation studios have a reputation, so they get to end a show after 1 or 2 seasons because they can just make a different show similar to that one, without losing the name recognition. If the writers/producer for a hit TV show in the US end a show and start a new one, no one will have any idea and they need to build up the show's reputation from scratch. This is hard to replicate in the USA because the average job tenure at Japanese companies is almost 3 times as long, which means that consumers can rely more on the studio name; also, Japanese companies are less aggressive about using the same name on all their subsidiaries, so instead of everything being "Disney/Pixar" or (France's) "Ubisoft [city name]", each team gets a distinctive brand that can become known for a particular style of work. It's not a perfect system (Companies that last long enough for veterans to retire, like Blizzard Entertainment, will be subject to long-term shifts) but it works a lot better than whatever the USA is doing.

@@Mr_Wallet yar, you get it.

Holy shit! Spot fucking on! And D'Onofrio always sounds like he's trying to do an impression of a human.

As are many of us. So far it's pretty good and an enormous improvement over seasons 1 and 2 of Picard, there is though still plenty of room for improvement, not only with the writing but some of the very sloppy editing too. I'll give it a 7/10 so far.

@@SlartiMarvinbartfast 7/10 is harsh tbh.

I think Rich and Mike are at the "everything has fallen apart so we're gonna ram the ship" level. Everyone is basically already dead and the ship is falling apart, everyone already knows we're in danger, so they don't bother with alerts, they probably don't even work anymore. This is Year of Hell, except it's been going on for over half a decade at least now.

@@skeetsmcgrew3282 It's not pointless? It's to get people to be at the ready in case something goes wrong, as opposed to just sleeping in their room or playing cards or something. Yellow alert is to make sure that when you suddenly need to go to red alert, your people are already where they should be, not scrambling to get to their posts.

@@skeetsmcgrew3282 It's not a 100% on duty alert all the time rigid wartime military operation. It's also an exploration/science/diplomacy ship extremely often. Crews have morale, people aren't drones who do nothing but what their boss tells them. The Enterprise regularly had off-duty activities, the crew did not work and sleep only. You don't need a fully operational battle stations ready ship at all times. It's even detrimental to do so because you need to save resources. Yellow alert says "we're not currently in a totally safe area, make sure you're available should something go wrong". Or "we're now entering a potentially dangerous situation, be ready, don't be messing around with your side projects right now". Otherwise from the crews perspective it's "everything is exactly as it is every day, nothing to worry about" to a sudden jump of "WERE UNDER ATTACK NOW FIX IT". Pretty sure yellow alert is also a shorthand for ensuring weapons are online and shields are working. I understand the impulse to think they're all just perfect beings who are on 100% of the time, but that's not how actual human beings operate.

Memory Alpha has a foot-page.

​@@DaanDobber How Daan found the foot page on Memory Alpha without having to go through every Memory Alpha page is the most astounding aspect of this comment

I think he actually uses these clips as a justification to watch through every episode once again.

I was struck by that as well! I wonder how much time was spent tracking down and inserting the shot which only lasted for like a second or two. And these reviews are filled with small clips like that. Must be a lot of work to edit.

@@ketchup1993 It has a ketchup page too.

I had the same thought. Came here to see if Mike picked it up.

That got me unexpectedly in the feels…

Such a great moment of dramatic irony. That would have been a heartwarming line from Picard in any other episode.

@@SenorBigDong69 Layers on layers on meaning and thoughts and emotion in such a simple scene. As you say, heartwarming in practically any other context, heartbreaking for Jack. And for Picard, not even probably what he'd say in a private conversation. His answer was a very canned response because he was in the throes of young Starfleet cadets looking up to him and excited about their pending careers. He's playing to the crowd, wanting to give them all an upbeat send-off. Prior to remembering Jack in the background, you get the sense that this was a memory that he cherished for the swell of respect and awe from the cadets. The cadets will later tell that story to other Starfleet personnel, "I actually met Jean-Luc Picard in a bar once, and he said..." Jack now realizes that his father wasn't turning from him and his mother, that his career with Starfleet was more of this experience he just had with him, the challenge, and the being a part of this team of star-hopping do-gooders risking their lives for the sake of one and all - a life that he can understand was worth living. Picard sees the road he didn't take, the infinite possibilities therein, the road that he never really considered. I thought the scene conveyed Picard accepting that Dr. Crusher was right in her thinking. He did put Starfleet first. This is one of the best illustrations of the downside of being a hero. As Nigel Terry said in Excalibur as King Arthur, "I was not meant to live the life of a man, but to be the stuff of... future memory." Seasons one and two of Picard were terrible to me, but this bit here at least was exceptional writing.

@@justinamerican8200 I quite liked Picard season 1 and thought there was a similar good emotional payoff of the regret and wondering for what could have been as a father figure in his relationships with Elnor, Hugh, and even a bit with Raffi. I wasn’t too impressed with the first three episodes of season 3, but hopefully episode 4 is a sign that they are almost done with setup.

I loved that

It helps when the show doesn’t suck.

Hearing his utter defeat with Star Trek and even saying it was ruining the old shows was legitimately disheartening, seeing him genuinely enjoying Star Trek again is a treat in these dark times

Yet dark mode is de rigor for any computer application and RGB everything for style. It's just a reflection of current times.

@@quintessenceSL True, but that's because the computer screen is where the work is done, almost everything else in the room doesn't matter. In star trek people aren't on computers, they're doing other things and moving around. They only use them when necessary.

In enterprise d, you know which panel is screen and buttons and which panels are just walls. I really do not know how anyone in disco or picard ships where the screen ends and where the "lean against this for support" begins

Seriously, I hate how the ships look in nu-trek. Mike is 100% in that they're barely distinguishable from each other. Places being way too fucking dark is a modern Hollywood problem in general really that goes well beyond trek.

@@jameshutchinson3672 Agreed. DS9 was one of the best Star Trek shows. It had the most character development in it, IMO.

Loved IT.

I think it's extremely saddening that they both have to feel so cautious due to fear of being let down again. That's gotta be horrible.

Yeah, I hope they go back to Strange New Worlds. The first couple episodes are just okay, but when that show HITS it hits. The Gorn episode was amazing and the finale where Pike gets to see the future if he was Captain instead of Kirk was great. Just to see how their difference as Captains isn't that one is better than the other, but how they handle situations.

@@Radb707 I love SNW so so so fucking much. I find it, frankly, impossible to believe it came from the same morons who gave us 4 seasons of DSC and 2 of PIC.

​@@MadSpectre47 It didn't. Different showrunners. Even Picard S3 is like a reboot with different writers.

@@occono3543 New showrunner for Picard too. He did the first two episodes of S2 and then left to start work on S3 so they are technically independent productions.

End of Episode 2 for me.

Picard so desperately wanting to attack the Shrike felt way out of character. Picard always uses violence as an absolute last resort. We aren't even given a real reason why he believes so vehemently that a surprise attack is more viable than an escape tactic. Worf going around massacaring people is also out of character. He's been violent and killed people yes, but never like that.

Not really, when cornered, Picard has been known to strike back in some violent way.

​​@@Scripture-Man thanks for reminding me why I shouldn't read the comments

@@Scripture-Man I think you need to rewatch more TNG episodes, because you seem to just be remembering the bridge encounters where Picard has to put on a serious face for his adversaries. He was quite a gentle and caring man in the small moments throughout TNG. His hobby was theater and the arts after all. Tapestry specifically shows how his TNG personality is evolved and tempered from his maverick, macho youth and seeing that trend continue should be no surprise. And All Good Things ended with his progression to opening up his personal relationship with his crew leading to his current friendliness that wasn’t present earlier in TNG. And all through Picard he is taking initiative to face danger for his missions, so I don’t think you can call him meek.

Now that would be a plot twist!

Seriously. The only thing I truly did not like is how dark the lightining was in that ship. When those power surges happened and everything went bright for a few seconds I almost rooted for the surge to continue. Lol

God I hope so.

rumors are he's locked out till 2025 when the license expires. sadly the future of Trek might be on rocky ground, till then and after when the rights change hands. i can only hope that the competent writing and righting of season 3 brings people back but the chances are the damage has been done.

@@samuelshafik2778 That was the antidepressants.

I feel like Riker is a secret bad guy…maybe not even Riker really.

Everyone had ideas for Voyager. The actor who played Chakotay hated the later seasons so much, and nobody listened, so he said either pay me more or I quit. And they upped his salary. Several times. And the idiot fans at cons ate up that garbage. Lots of videos of him at cons going, "You like that episode? Are you an idiot?". Star Trek fans have been trash for a while now. Like when everyone was jerking it to 7 of 9 because it was a blonde in a bodysuit. She's not that great of a character. Just like people watch T'Pol on Enterprise for her "plot". That's some Harvey Weinstein bull. I've been done with it for decades.

Ron Moore's ideas for Voyager also basically ended up being BSG.

@@ericjohnson9623 Only some of them. He also wanted Voyager to have aliens that are much weirder and different than previous shows. He wanted Voyager to feel truly far away from the Federation by having them discover things that are really unfamiliar, and not just old enemies like the Borg or meeting a new alien that's a slightly different version of aliens we've seen before like how the Kazons are just crappier Klingons.

But why are they on the rocks now when their son died years or decades ago and they were just fine a year or two ago? Riker says he left home and went back into space to deal with this trauma but I thought he went back into space to save Picard from the evil AIs in season one.

@@wabznasm9660 Star Trek homaging Galaxy Quest homaging Star Trek, it's like poetry. Actually loved ep 1-4, it's like a movie within the series with a clear enough beginning and ending and even character arcs (for all but Raffi and Worf I guess)

It also helps that Worf is an established character, known for valuing honor and - while he is quick to recommend violent solutions to problems (he was a tactical officer, after all) - he doesn't kill on a whim. When he kills, it's because the situation calls for it. Where as Elnor just seems to be That Sword Guy. He kills people seemingly just because being the muscle of the cast is all he's good for and the show apparently has a violence quota to meet.

Like the news is so shocking to him that the laugh can't immediately go into fifth gear like it usually does, it has to rev up

I've watched EVERYTHING about Star Trek by RLM... yet I've only watched like 2 scenes from one of JJ's Star Trek movies

I was thinking of Voyager too and how much different episodes like "Year of Hell" would have been if you didn't have the bright day to day ship to contrast the dark and brutalised damaged version in those episodes. The perma-dark bridges that look barely functional have never done a service to Star Trek, and I wouldn't say they even look that particularly good unless the purpose is to hide a set that's underdeveloped/unfinished.

There was a deleted tweet from LeVar Burton that all but confirmed at least a visit to the D's bridge. Patrick Stewart also made what seemed to be a comment he shouldn't have made (at SDCC) where he said we would see both the old Enterprise and the new one.

What I’m hoping is that it’s a mothballed Galaxy Class that gets renamed Enterprise for nostalgia sake. Especially since at the end of Generations during Picards Captains Log he specifically states the Enterprise is “unsalvageable”

@@uchihaitachi181 Maybe Picard just _assumed_ it was unsalvageable, the way he assumed the Defiant was "adrift, but salvageable." But really, I am okay with them salvaging the saucer section after like 30 years in spite of a line of dialogue in a captain's log. Picard was probably thinking in terms of the practical needs of the fleet, as in it would be more resource efficient to just build a new ship, especially with the new ship designs like the Sovereign class that were coming into production. Unsalvageable for the short and medium term needs of Starfleet doesn't necessarily mean unsalvageable to someone with a historical and sentimental interest in the ship, who potentially has access to technology that would help with the salvage effort, technology which may not have been available at the time that Picard made that statement.

@@RTukka A fair counter argument, especially considering the lack of urgency at the time, this would be a pre-Dominion incursion, at least a few months before the Klingon invasion of Cardassian territory. It was likely labeled a non-priority, more likely so if the planet was uninhabited
