The 42cast Episode 139: Old Man Picard
Episode notes
For many Star Trek: Discovery was a welcome return to the Trek universe for fans who’d wanted a Star Trek TV series for years. However, the series remained divisive with many long-term fans refusing to watch the series. Enter Star Trek: Picard a series meant to catapult the Star Trek franchise forward but providing ample connections for established fans. In this episode we do a deep dive on the series. We talk about the plot, the reunification of the Star Trek timeline, the characters and the cast. We also make sure to spend plenty of time on the cameos, the cathartic release from Star Trek: Nemesis, and our predictions for season two.
This week’s five-minute controversy asks if it’s a good idea for Star Trek: Strange New Worlds to be episodic rather than have story arcs.
This week Stephanie is cohost and James and Juliette join the cast.
