Love:
Love the band getting back together Love the pacing The knowledge and deep history of 60 years of Star Trek and organically incorporating it with depth and not just fan service. Everything we see from TOS, the movies, DS9, Voyager, and TNG, even possible Enterprise, has a purpose here that never makes us feel like it's just unearned sugar.
Love the hiding behind the moon like Trek 2 Love the believable relationship between LaForge and his daughters Love the composer.
Love that any 3 or 4 episodes feels like a TNG feature Love that Picard feels closer to who he is as a character Love the Moriarty "Pop Goes The Weasel" scene.
Love Riker's character. Love his callback to meeting Data.
Love the genetically modified tribble. Because yeah that's about what Section 31 would do. Imagine dropping a bunch of those things on an enemy planet. Wow.
Love Data being in semi-human form. Yeah just let him age. No more trying to make an actor look like an android from the mid-90s.
Love, love the ship museum.
LOVE that I suspect Geordi is restoring the Enterprise D. Likely got the saucer section, also remember Picard says send Geordi the painting of the Enterprise D. Hanger Bay 12? That will likely be the payoff.
Love the creative use of The Bounty's cloaking device.
Love the Kirk scans and what it may mean.
This is all smart. Smart. And well researched. It is a deep dive into everything Trek of the last 60 years. Finally we have something that feels like respect for the audience. I haven't felt this in 20 years.
Love the scenes with Jack and Seven looking at the ships.
Don't Love: The scenes with Picard and his son. Ugh. The angst. The hurt the whatever. I'm just not sold and don't care as much. He'll be fine. Let's move on.
Really don't love the villain played by Amanda Plummer. The moustache twirling, the "I'll get you my pretty" stuff. I just try to skip over all her "I'll hunt you down blah blah" parts. Nobody cares.
Seven and Raffi. Don't care. But only because I just don't believe in Raffi as a character and the actor has something to do with that. It's distracting. Less distracting than last season, but better.
Why are they standing around talking to a hologram with a gun? Move.
Overall, I love this season. Love it.
