Chairslinger Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 I honestly don't know how I am going to make it through a whole year waiting for season 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spawn_of_Apathy Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 I really liked that ending. It was a very Picard ending. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elbobo Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 Series certainly ended better than it started. Riker showing up was total fan service but whatever it was fun. I feel it was a good send off for Data, better than Nemesis at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 They actually managed to wrap this up better than I was expecting, though I guess we'll see how it holds up on rewatch. Also between making it Uber blatant with showing us the golem in the previous episode and the show being named Picard I was just outright fucking bored by everything starting with his death until the scene with Data. It was hard to find any of it remotely interesting given it was so obvious he was about to come back. If the show hadn't been named what it is then maybe I would have bought into it a bit despite the golem reveal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dualhunter Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 I'm disappointed they didn't make any comment about his heart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picard mentioned something about his artificial heart in an earlier episode and in the last one the said something along the lines of "everything works as it should" so it seems like he has a biological albeit synthetic heart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Vic20 Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 I enjoyed it! Not really sure where it goes from there, but I see that they have potentially given themselves the option of connection the events of Discovery's plot with Picard's plot.

They needed to give some inkling of the golem but when they introduced it, it was blatantly obvious what it was going to be used for. So when his death happen it was far to obvious and the time wasted with people being sad felt dull and flat. Really as cliche as this would have been, they should have just cut straight from his death to the scene with data (which was fantastic). Hopefully they can fix the pacing issues in season 2 that season 1 suffered from constantly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'm going with the idea that it's just an unfortunate art decision that the reaper looked like Control. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
