"Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance.

I'm still hopeful about this, and I have to say I am enjoying it.
Although upon reflection, I agree with some of the earlier comments I trashed - namely the whole unnecessary F bomb (really didn't see the point in that one).
I finally got to watch the second season of Discovery and well, Discovery IMHO beats this.
Both aren't much Star Trek, but S2 of Discovery came a lot closer than this.
Because it has Pike character and he is 200% proper Star Trek character - charismatic, lade back and brave, not angsty, edgy and woke.

I've started rewatching the first season of ST: TNG and DAMN is it cringey and stiff...
I believe the actors and writers got their shit together closer to the third season. So much hammy acting in season one of TNG.
The same could be said of almost any first season of good series (with American Gods being one major exception). Star Trek: Picard has already been given a second season. We'll see where this goes, if they can fulfill the promises shown in the first 3 episodes of Picard.
24 episides was awesome in 24 10 eps is to short imo , but hey, they can charge 2 times as much for 10 eps then 24 eps , the greedy cunts , full episodes dvds still same price even with less then half the eps on it
In other news, I can't believe how Scene WEB TV groups turned into a joke.
Since they can't decrypt anything nor they bother to invest into HDMI capture equipment, they simply get NTb/BTN release (which also ends up on a public tracker), repack it using Mkvtoolnix or whatever and "release" it on their own...
The idiot Romulan he brought for the muscle... so he beamed down to the cube and fought his way, in mere seconds it seemed or maybe minutes to the exact location Picard was, without even knowing how to get there, just so he could then do an idiot "I'll stay behind and die for no reason, instead of, you know, step through that portal that's open right now... and eventually fend off anyone who might follow us... Nah, let's stay here and doe or become a hostage...
Yes, this 6th episode was much better than the last one and redeemed the show a bit.
@ Sin317:
Spoiler:
I disagree since that's simply who Elnor is, an over-zealous samurai-character and loyal to Picard to a fault. In this instance he was making sure no Romulans would even get to the room as well as protecting Hugh and the secret room from the Romulans. At least that's what I thought about that scene.

It was an OK show with some great moments. Story was stupid. No need for a new season IMO, let it die.
Spoiler:
I didn't understand why the supersynths just went away when the beacon shut down. Maybe the enemy destroyed the beacon? That's one retarded SOS system.
