Discovery was Hot Awful though. I get where they're coming from there and I actually largely agree with them.

Its something that always makes me wonder why Producers decide to go the 'prequel' route? Because there is the possibility of introduction of Characters we know?

What really sucks is that to make things interesting they introduce characters, technologies, scenarios and circumstances to develop story around that just doesnt fit or make sense within the context of the larger world that they're leaning on.

I like that Picard is set where it is.

If you thought this season would have a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention.
