Star Trek: Picard Discussion (SPOILERS)

[Zeke]

I went in skeptical, but so far I love this show. I should've had more faith in Patrick Stewart. He showed heavy signs of age in the first episode -- most notably very slow, deliberate speech -- and I was worried that it would just be depressing to see him like this. As of episode two, though, it's clear that Stewart was playing that up on purpose so we could see this new adventure bring Picard back to life. Can't wait to see where they're going with this story, too. (And I was a hard sell on that, because I hate several major elements they're using here, mainly the destruction of Romulus and no followup to the hope in Nemesis's ending re: Data/B4.)
