On the run from everyone else in Starfleet, the Titan rendezvous with Worf and Raffi. They beam aboard the ship and share their collected intelligence from District Six about the Changeling’s plans for Frontier Day. After discussing the next steps, the ship heads for Daystrom Station to find out what else Vadic had stolen. Continue reading Star Trek: Picard S3, E6 – “The Bounty”
“Imposters” begins on the bridge of the Titan with a scene that shows operations slowly returning to normal after repairs. After escaping the attack from the Shrike and returning to Federation space, Picard and Riker prepare to face the music for their actions. Starfleet Intelligence has sent over a familiar face to meet them while Worf and Raffi seek a different way to get into Daystrom Station. Continue reading Star Trek: Picard S3, E5 – “Imposters”
The Titan is dead in space. The ship is slowly being pulled towards the center of the nebula. The severity of the situation is painted starkly when Riker discovers their best option is to divert all remaining power to life support to purchase four more hours before the entire crew meets certain death. “No Win Scenario” delves deeper into the characters as we explore the real dangers they face. The drama shifts from the crew fearing an external threats – Vadic and the Changeling spy – to an internal one – their own lack of faith and trust in one another. Continue reading Star Trek: Picard S3, E4 – “No Win Scenario”
For the most part, the acting in “Seventeen Seconds” is strong. Jonathan Frakes, Patrick Stewart and Gates McFadden, all deliver powerful performances. We’re given some two-person scenes where the theme of regret is highlighted. This episode has the responsibility of giving us answers to questions raised by this season’s story. Continue reading Star Trek: Picard S3, E3 – “Seventeen Seconds”
As we predicted last week, “Disengage” answered some of the questions raised by “The Next Generation.” Picard was revealed to be the father of Beverly’s son. Worf was proven to be Raffi’s secret handler. It was a good thing that neither of these “mysteries” were drawn out for another week because doing so would have been an insult to the audience since they were so obvious. Thankfully, the writers didn’t let that happen. Continue reading Star Trek: Picard S3, E2 – “Disengage”
The final season of Star Trek: Picard has begun with “The Next Generation.” It is, by far, Picard’s most successful premiere episode. But it’s filled with many similarities to “Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan.” Continue reading Star Trek: Picard S3, E1 – “The Next Generation”
Hey everyone! I’ve said it before, we got a lot of Star Trek last year. From the second half of DISCOVERY’s Season Four, to PICARD Season Two, STRANGE NEW WORLDS’ smash inaugural season, Season Three for LOWER DECKS, and the remaining two thirds of PRODIGY’s first season we saw more Star Trek than anyone has every seen in a single calendar year. That was A LOT!! Continue reading What were your Top Ten episodes of Star Trek in 2022?
“Supernova, Part 2” concludes our first season of this enjoyable show by bringing the journey we’ve been on with these wonderful characters to a satisfying ending.

This episode highlights their growth and entices us with what the future holds. In short, “Supernova, Part II” delivered us a fantastic ending to Season One.

A list of the Star Trek artists we lost in 2022. Continue reading In Memoriam: Star Trek Artists We Lost in 2022
“Supernova, Part 1” was a thrilling, and jam-packed beginning installment to this season’s finale. The main thrust of the story features our heroes eliminating every imaginable course of action that could help them stop the Living Construct from initiating the complete annihilation of Starfleet. Those are pretty high stakes for an animated series that was originally designed to be a young person’s introduction to the world of Star Trek. But we’ve said this before, Prodigy’s first season story arc has performed in the same serialized narrative style as the modern live-action Star Trek series. However, “Supernova” has the potential to deliver us a fantastic Season One conclusion. Continue reading Star Trek: Prodigy S1, E19 – “Supernova, Part 1”
