On Picard, just a weirdly nonsensical ending, but at least all of Q's machinations got Picard a squeeze I guess. Overall the finale just seemed like a whole series on montages but I did like that they bought one of the most hated Characters, if you want to distract from what I would class as bad written, you can make it look better with heartfelt dialogues about love and bring back a hated character.
I liked SNW just because we automatically got what Discovery was missing, off bore crew members actually mean something and aren't just pieced of set dressing. Also AM is very good as Pike. I liked the distraction with Lt Kirk is on the way to the bridge. We did see a dead Samuel Kirk in the original series played by the Shat with a mustached who was James' brother. But they've indicated in this show that this Kirk is not that Kirk.
The T'Pring spock stuff was weird. But overall a good monster of the week episode. But the problem is that the story line has been done before over and over again through Star Trek, it would have been nice to start with something a bit more original. But overall a pretty strong start.
