One of the mandates laid out by actor Patrick Stewart prior to the shooting of "Star Trek: Picard" was that the new Trek series not be a reunion special. He didn't want to return to "Star Trek" after 15 years (his last appearance as Jean-Luc Picard was in "Star Trek: Nemesis" in 2002) just to participate in an insufferably teary series wherein the cast of "Star Trek: The Next Generation" tiresomely get back on the bridge of the Enterprise-d and re-do everything they had done on the celebrated 1987 series. By the time the third season of "Picard" rolled around, the series resoundingly broke that mandate.
In the show's first two seasons, however, the showrunners had to innovate. Picard was no longer a starship captain, and his closest allies were not an official Starfleet crew. Indeed, the main characters on "Picard" were all free agents, with most of them actively resentful of Starfleet.

"Star Trek: Picard" is gearing up for one last mission, and the final season of the Paramount+ series has just added two new castmates to its roster for what's shaping up to be a major reunion season. The cast reveals come courtesy of a new trailer for the season, which gives us our first look at two characters played by Todd Stashwick and Ed Speleers.
Speleers is set to appear as a series regular on "Star Trek: Picard," working with Gates McFadden's medical officer Beverly Crusher, who press materials indicate will be working on "worlds Starfleet has forgotten." Stashwick, meanwhile, will appear in a recurring role playing the captain of the U.S.S. Titan, a ship that so far has mostly made on-screen appearances on the animated series "Star Trek: Lower Decks."

2022 saw the release of 45 new episodes of "Star Trek" -- the highest volume of "Star Trek" that audiences have been treated to since the 1990s heyday of the franchise. 1996 and 1998 it seems, still hold the record for Most Treks, as both years saw the airing of 54 one-hour "Star Trek" episodes between "Deep Space Nine" and "Voyager," as well as the theatrical releases of "Star Trek: First Contact" and "Star Trek: Insurrection," respectively. TV, of course, has changed dramatically in the age of streaming, and average TV seasons now run a mere 10 episodes rather than the old-world 26.
2022 certainly holds the record for greatest variety of "Star Trek," as five separate shows are now running concurrently. There was the conclusion of the fourth season of "Star Trek: Discovery," the entire second season of "Star Trek: Picard," the entire third season of "Star Trek: Lower Decks," the concluding end of the first season of "Star Trek: Prodigy,...

Final frontier. Final voyage.
Patrick Stewart’s Jean-Luc Picard is flying into the sunset at warp speed with “Star Trek: Picard” Season 3, a last hurrah for him and the “Next Generation” cast that’s intended to bring his story to a close. And now, out of New York Comic-Con, there’s the first full trailer detailing what fans can expect. Watch it below.
Season 3 is going to be a largely starship-set adventure reminiscent of the tone and feel of “Next Generation” in addition to bringing back cast members LeVar Burton, Michael Dorn, and Gates McFadden, as well as Jonathan Frakes and Marina Sirtis, who had already appeared in Season 1.
The first teaser, or “sneak peek,” of the season arrived on “Star Trek Day” in September. It showed McFadden’s Dr. Beverly Crusher still in Starfleet, her ship seemingly under attack… and not calling Starfleet HQ for help, but Picard directly.

This year's Star Trek Day offered plenty of new teases for what's to come in the beloved franchise created by Gene Roddenberry. Fans were treated to sneak peeks at the future of shows like "Star Trek: Strange New Worlds," "Star Trek: Lower Decks," and more. However, those with an affinity towards "Star Trek: The Next Generation" are likely the most excited for the upcoming season of "Star Trek: Picard."
Ahead of the series' third and final chapter, Paramount unveiled a brand new trailer touting the next adventure starring the legendary admiral played by Patrick Stewart. But he'll also be joined by a number of old friends for the first time since 2002's "Star Trek: Nemesis" in what could be the former Enterprise captain's last mission.

The “Star Trek” franchise is not only a television institution, it’s also an Emmy institution, from the original series and “The Next Generation,” which earned nominations for Best Drama Series, to subsequent spinoffs like “Deep Space Nine,” “Voyager,” and “Enterprise” that continued to rack up plaudits in craft categories. The sci-fi extended universe now has more shows than ever exploring the galaxy.

“I really believe that music is the heart of the narrative,” declares Emmy-winning composer Jeff Russo about the power of a great film or TV score. “It’s our responsibility to be the undercurrent to what the feeling of the story is; whether that feeling is love, hate, tension, anxiety. Any one of those feelings that the characters get to feel during the story should be underscored by us and brought out to a certain degree,” he says about the composer’s primary role. “Part of what I think a composer’s job is as well is to figure out where to not put music, not necessarily always where to put music, because a lot of times, the absence of music can also evoke certain feelings.”

Star Trek: Picard Season 2 Episode 9
Well, the penultimate episode of Star Trek: Picard Season 2 is a thing that we have all now watched. Plagued by many of the same problems that have repeatedly cropped up throughout the rest of the season—poor pacing, ill-timed flashbacks, and a bizarre disregard for the basic rules of time travel—”Hide and Seek” is an hour that has plenty of action, but a deeply messy and often pointless plot, as Picard and friends face off against the Borg Queen, a bunch of random paramilitary types she’s assimilated, and Adam Soong, who is also there for some reason.
If you were hoping this episode had any more answers about Q, his apparent impending death, or why he chose to set Picard the test that has ultimately led to this mess of a story we are all watching,...

The first season of "Star Trek: Picard," perhaps infamously, was replete with violence and murder. Not an episode passed without one of the show's major characters killing someone. Even the mild-mannered Dr. Jurati (Alison Pill) poisoned an old lover. "Picard" even featured a sword-wielding Romulan samurai in the form of Elnor (Evan Evagora) who could take off people's heads as they would their own hats. Season 2, at least at the start, seemed to be eschewing that clunky, idiotic brutality for something more akin to several classical "Star Trek: The Next Generation" stories. Perhaps it would be about investigating...

They’re back!
What fans have hoped for since “Star Trek: Picard” was first announced four years ago, has come true: all of the main “Next Generation” cast will be returning to the “Star Trek” universe for the final season of “Picard.” LeVar Burton, Michael Dorn, Jonathan Frakes, Gates McFadden, Marina Sirtis and Brent Spiner will all star opposite Patrick Stewart’s Jean-Luc Picard in what showrunner Terry Matalas is billing as a final send-off for the characters. Watch the announcement video below.
“I remember watching the premiere of ‘Star Trek: The Next Generation’ almost 34 years ago with my father like it was yesterday. It was the spark that ignited my love for science fiction,” said Terry Matalas, season three showrunner and executive producer. “So, it’s most fitting that the story of Jean-Luc Picard ends honoring the beginning, with his dearest and most loyal friends from the U.S.

After the timeline changing events of last week, Star Trek: Picard kicks off this episode with the team desperately trying to escape the altered future. After they time travel to 2024, Elnor dies and the crew sets out to try and find the “Watcher” Q informed Picard about.
We spoke with several members of the cast and the executive producer to get all kinds of insights into the making of this episode.
Los Angeles: 2024
While Picard himself doesn’t take to the streets of Los Angeles, where the team ends up, this week, star Patrick Stewart found the whole experience fantastic, in part, he jokes, “because I don’t live too far from downtown. It’s very easy to get there.”
More seriously he sees the choice of going to 2024 and not the current year of 2022 as a significant point of interest.

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for Star Trek: Picard Season 2, Episode 3 “Assimilation.”] Star Trek: Picard goes back to 2024 Los Angeles in the latest episode, but not everyone makes it there alive. With their covers posing as their alternate reality selves blown, Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart), Agnes Jurati (Alison Pill), Seven of Nine (Jeri Ryan), Raffi Musiker (Michelle Hurd), Elnor (Evan Evagora), and Cristóbal Rios (Santiago Cabrera) come under fire by the First Magistrate (Jon Jon Briones). Elnor is shot, and after jumping them to 2024, the Borg Queen (Annie Wersching) drains the power from the ship to save her life — power that Raffi needs for the bio-bed in sick bay to try to keep Elnor alive. Elnor dies, and Raffi is (understandably) upset about the circumstances. Will fixing time bring him back, she asks. That’s unknown, but she latches onto the possibility. So what’s driving her more, the loss of Elnor or the fact that...

“Time offers many opportunities,” Jean-Luc Picard intones in the season premiere of Star Trek: Picard, “but it rarely offers second chances.”
This new season presents something of a second chance for both Jean-Luc and the Paramount+ show that bears his name. The first season started off with the exciting notion of Sir Patrick Stewart revisiting his most famous role, and the conceit of an elderly Picard staring down his own mortality gave the great actor more to play than he often got back on Star Trek: The Next Generation.

“Star Trek: Picard” Season 2 finally premiered on Paramount+ on Thursday, nearly two years — and a whole pandemic — since we last saw Patrick Stewart as intrepid explorer and uncompromising idealist Jean-Luc Picard.
The first season of the “Star Trek” series caught up with the retired Starfleet Admiral living peacefully at his château in France, but even a casual viewer of “Star Trek: The Next Generation” could’ve known that Picard wouldn’t be the type to fade into quiet obscurity during his golden years. Sure enough, “Picard” Season 1 saw the Admiral take to the stars again for one last adventure, this time to save a young woman with a mysterious past, and uncover the long-buried secrets of an old friend.
With such a long gap between seasons, it’s only natural to need a refresher before plunging into Season 2 (the first episode of which is now streaming on Paramount+). So we...

It almost seems like a rule, one as unshakeable as the Prime Directive: The first seasons of “Star Trek” shows have to be bad. And the first season of “Star Trek: Picard” was very bad indeed.
Some of its most egregious plot points are even ignored whole cloth in Season 2, which stands as an improvement in almost every conceivable way — the fact that Picard’s consciousness was transferred into a golem body, so as to save his life, at the end of that initial run is never once mentioned. With the precision of Chief O’Brien locking onto a particularly tricky transporter pattern, new showrunners Akiva Goldsman and Terry Matalas have isolated what worked about Season 1 and what didn’t.
Here’s the great news: the cast from Season 1 was terrific, even if underwritten in those episodes. Goldsman, Matalas, and the “Picard” writers room capture their personalities from the initial...

The highly-anticipated premiere of Star Trek: Picard Season 2 drops on Thursday, March 3, and Paramount+ has done a stellar job building the hype for its sophomore offering.
There has been eager anticipation for the return of some familiar Star Trek: The Next Generation faces, but much of the credit for the show securing a second season goes to the actors who played the newcomers on Star Trek: Picard Season 1.
Isa Briones as Soji (and Dahj and Sutra and Jana) was the catalyst for Star Trek: Picard's inaugural adventure. Evan Evagora, the Qowat Milat-trained Romulan refugee orphan Elnor, and Santiago Cabrera as La Sirena's Captain Rios (and all his holo-crew) impressed and excited Trek fans, both new and old, with their skills in action, comedy, and drama.
Through the magic of technology, Cabrera, Briones, and Evagora spoke with TV Fanatic and other press outlets over a virtual roundtable, sharing their thoughts...

The fans asked for it and Whoopi Goldberg has obliged.
Goldberg is returning to the Star Trek universe in season 2 of Paramount+’s Picard, reprising the role of Guinan in multiple episodes.
She played the El-Aurian bar hostess on Star Trek: The Next Generation from 1988 to 1993.
“I’m going to need some tea: Earl Grey, piping hot,” she says to an emotional Picard (Patrick Stewart) in the first trailer for the season premiering on March 3 above.
Stewart invited Goldberg to join him in the new series while visiting her ABC talk show The View in Jan. 2020 while promoting the Season 1 premiere.
“I’m here with a formal invitation,” said Stewart, “and it’s for you, Whoopi. Alex Kurtzman, who is the senior executive producer of Star Trek: Picard, and all his colleagues, of which I am one, want to invite you into the second season.”
Without a second thought, Goldberg said yes.

Paramount Plus dropped a new trailer for “Star Trek: Picard” Season 2 that offers fans a first look at Whoopi Goldberg’s return as Guinan.
In Season 2, Picard and his crew take a journey into the past. Picard (Sir Patrick Stewart) must enlist friends both old and new to confront the perils of 21st century Earth in a desperate race against time to save the galaxy’s future – and face the ultimate trial from one of his greatest foes.
In the trailer, Picard seeks out Guinan at her bar, appropriately named 10 on Forward Ave, because she can help his team “understand the change in time.”
“You’re answers are not in the stars,” Guinan says. “And they never have been.” Later, she tells Picard that “you have one final frontier yet to come.”

Star Trek: Picard is the latest TV show affected by the rise of positive Covid-19 cases.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Paramount+ drama recorded more than 50 positive tests.
The series was shut down with immediate effect on the first day of work following the Christmas break.
Star Trek: Picard has one of the biggest crews on TV, and the positive cases were across multiple zones.
While unconfirmed at this stage, THR states that production is expected to resume early next week, if not sooner.
However, it has become increasingly clear over the last two years that anything can happen.
Covid-19-induced shutdowns for TV shows lasted weeks previously, so time will tell whether the show will be able to get back into production as planned.
Patrick Stewart. Alison Pill, Isa Briones, Evan Evagora, Michelle Hurd, Santiago Cabrera, Jeri Ryan, Orla Brady, and Brent Spiner star on the series.

Production has been suspended on Paramount+ series Star Trek: Picard after more than four dozen cast and crew members tested positive for Covid, sources have confirmed to Deadline. Lead Patrick Stewart is not among them, we hear.
Filming halted Monday on the show, which employs more than 450 staffers, but is scheduled to resume tomorrow. The outbreak affected both crew members, as well as cast in Zone A.
Production had been underway on Season 2 of the series which follows Stewart’s titular character into the next chapter of his life.

Jean-Luc Picard got a new lease on life — and, by the end of the initial run of episodes, literally a new body — in the polarizing first season of “Star Trek: Picard.” Where does he go next? Well, the first teaser with footage from Season 2 just dropped, and it seems that once again Patrick Stewart’s beloved space sage isn’t seeking adventure so much as adventure finding him. Watch the teaser below.
Q, omnipotent superbeing and galaxy-brained wit, has popped up at Picard’s chateau in La Barre, France. And it’s a surprisingly subdued appearance: you’d think this veritable trickster god would find his love of Napoleonic couture to be perfectly at home in the French countryside. He’s also aged, presumably adjusting his own appearance with a snap of his fingers so as not to make Picard feel bad about his own advancing years.

“Star Trek: Picard” is back for a second season in 2022 on Paramount+ and a new trailer, which teases the possibility that time travel might play a role in the story, features the return of John de Lancie as the omnipotent Q.
de Lancie also confirmed his appearance in the upcoming season during Monday’s First Contact Day celebration — in “Star Trek” lore, April 5 is the day humanity launched its first warp-capable vessel, which led immediately to first contact with Vulcan, setting in motion the creation of the Federation 100 years later.
de Lancie first portrayed Q — a member of a society of omnipotent beings collectively known as the Q Continuum, who pesters Picard as part of what he claims is a trial of sorts to judge Humanity’s worthiness to be a galactic race — in the pilot episode of “Star Trek: The Next Generation.” Over the years Q seems to regard...

Paramount Plus revealed a teaser trailer for the upcoming second season of “Star Trek: Picard,” which will premiere in 2022.
The teaser trailer was introduced by Sir Patrick Stewart, who played Captain Jean-Luc Picard for seven seasons on “Star Trek: The Next Generation,” at the top of Paramount Plus’ slew of First Contact Day virtual panels. Additionally, it was revealed that production on the second season has already begun.
John de Lancie, who first portrayed the iconic character Q on “The Next Generation,” confirmed that he will appear in the second season alongside Stewart. Q shared comedic chemistry with Picard on the “Star Trek” series, often getting on the captain’s nerves. Picard initially deemed Q’s services unnecessary, but as the series progresses, Q morphed into a mentor role to Picard. In the episode “Deja Q,” he said Picard is “the closest thing in this universe that I have to a friend.

My interest in Picard did slowly start to creep up though as the time got closer to release on Amazon Prime and little nuggets of information were falling into our laps.

For some actors, getting a breakout opportunity can take decades, however, that’s not how things worked out for Evan Evagora. The talented young actor has only been working on screen for a little more than a year, but he’s already becoming a star. Evan, who plays Elnor in the TV series Star Trek: Picard, is not officially part of one of those most legendary sci-fi franchises. Although his role in the show is just his third on screen appearance, he still managed to hold his own while acting opposite industry vets such as Patrick Stewart. It may still be early
