@@Infern0121 I can say whatever I want to say as long as it doesn't conflict with the rules set down by this channel.

If everyone likes all the characters in TNG then why don't we have those characters in the beginning of the first episode, like on TNG? In other words if TNG was great then why don't we continue it?
What a scene. We've only just been introduced to Shaw but I like his character already. Looks like he's starting to realize why Picard has the respect he does. The silent convey of information through expressions between Beverly and Picard. Picard upon realizing who Jack Crusher is, reigniting that commanding authority he was well-known for. The way he says, "Engage".
There is some kind of deep trauma with Shaw too to explore. I have the feeling that when its all said and done with him serving with all these Hall of Famers and this crisis, he will be changed quite a bit.
@@NiTeHaWKnz Captain of Constitution [III] Class ship with an attitude you don't want to go against, yet with deep respect and care for his ship and crew? Yup sounds like Kirk.
It’s really sad to see fans lap this trash up, because it gives them some memberberries and reminds them of the TOS movies. Not unlike SW fans who eyes will light up every time they see a TIE fighter and go into full “CONSUME PRODUCT” mode. Sad. Many such cases.
This was a great scene. I love how Picard and Beverley didn't even need to say a single word. And I love captain Shaw immediately relenting upon hearing Jack is Picard's son. He's been set up as an unlikeable man, and he could overrule Picard by simply pointing out the admiral is retired, but instantly he knows there's no way he'll even try to force a man to give up his son. And that little pat on the shoulder from Picard "you're a starfleet captain after all, Shaw". Finally good writing, good acting and efficient storytelling.
@greengreeneya2102 retired admiral. He has no commission. But he's a legend and I felt the feeling Shaw is not well loved by his crew. Shaw didn't have much of a choice.
simply no word's to describe this scene, the facial expressions between Beverley and jean luc over the realization jack is jean luc's son. this season of star trek picard really pulls on the heart strings of the next generation right to the core. This season is gonna be a proper send off to the next generation crew like the undiscovered country ending was to kirk's crew.
I did like how Shaw grew a begrudging respect towards Picard there. Not just because there's a clear picture of who Picard is defending despite the risks but Picard finally demonstrates why he's a decorated officer who hasn't lost his touch in the command chair.
Powerful scene between Beverly and Jean Luc. The way Picard takes up that fierceness to protect the family and the way he always looks at Beverly as if to say. I will protect you, trust me. .On the other hand, Vadic Enjoying the hunt.
No words... didnt need any. Years of friendship and camaraderie... she knew hed know. First she showed shame... looked down... but the composed herself... looked at him and he knew. So well done.
I wonder if they are setting up a new spin-off show with Shaw and Seven. Cause, unless things fall apart later on the season, I'd watch the hell out of that.
The sound of the torpedoes is from the episode Yesterday's Enterprise :) Funnily enough, phaser sounds and sounds of the Klingon shields ("continuous fire all phasers") at 41:30
Love seeing Picard grow his balls back after two seasons of being "deconstructed". But Shaw impressed me more in this scene. At 1:24, you can see the look in Picard's eyes .... Shaw could still overrule him, but instead opted to do the right thing. He acted decisively, readying a barrage of torpedoes and a course deeper into the nebula. The man is a salty jerk, and may still end up acting as an antagonist later, but he's a professional officer, a decent man and his priority is clearly the safety of everyone serving under him. Very impressed with Picard season 3 so far
I just realized how much this has made me appreciate all the seasons of Picard. Season 1 seemed to be about having a closure with Data’s. Last season - Closure between Q and Picard. This season - Closure for the TNG as a crew. I don’t think this Season could have worked at the 1st Season. Now that I think about it. We had to wait for the crew to be pulled together. And this will end the way a series should - with a bang rather than a whimper.
This is everything we needed from the first two seasons. Plummer as Vadic has absolutely no backstory and yet I’m completely engrossed already by her. She’s so unsettling and disturbing. Brilliant villain
Shaw actually turned out to be a reasonable man here Picard fully asserted his authority as an Admiral, the crew obeyed without hesitation and Shaw could see what he assumed to be a feeble and old man display the legendary authority he was known for and went with the flow Major turn around since last week

I can't believe I'm saying this🤔💭 but if captain Shaw SURVIVES☑️✅️ I would love to watch A COUPLE seasons of him and his crew adventures in star trek🌌🌠💯
I know it’s is probably not what you all want to hear but I am loving this villain she has had me cracking me up the whole time - she’s mad as a hatter but hilarious - GREAT CHOICE
This season has been amazing!!!!!! I am a die hard TNG fan from when I was a kid!!! What a scene. I am betting the Enterprise-F will be coming to help out soon and wanna see the titan kick ass
Shaw had already stated that Picard is retired and Riker is a captain without an active commission. Why would Shaw or his crew obey any orders now? He's my son is a powerful line for the audience. For Shaw the argument put forward should have been that Jack was a civilian and a citizen of the United Federation Of Planets. Yeah, Starfleet has an obligation to take risk to save civilians.
The moment he said, “belay that! Admiral’s orders!” In that tone of voice, It felt like the old Jean-Luc was really back. I liked the first 2 seasons but this one is probably one of the top 5 seasons of all Trek ever made!
Anyone else think they forgot to add the phasers to the firing sequence? Certainly heard the sound but no visual effects. And they threw in just a touch of the Balance of Terror music as well.
The “on screen” sound is the same one as in Star Trek 6 and the Voyager era torpedo sound…only two of many subtle hints showing Matalas really knows the legacy.
The situation changed before he was an accused criminal who was wanted by criminals in wild space. Then they find out he is the son of a prominent admiral which means they can't give him up because they could use him as leverage.
@augustjsb Picard no excuse me captain but I am Admiral retired thank you for that. Will I am still a captain without a ship. What do we do now short of munity I have no idea. So makes no sense.
The look on Jack's face when Jean-Luc admits that Jack is his son - earlier he had yelled at Picard "I don't have a father" - either he didn't know that Jeann-Luc was his father, or he was angry that Picard never acknowledged him as such.
Let's be honest. The torpedoes were only ever as powerful as the screenwriters needed them to be. And if the script calls for it, the shields could probably be pierced with a Rotten Tomato.
This season actually looks interesting. I saw the first episode caught my attention of interest. I hope this isn't a disappointment as in previous seasons. I don't have Disney so I watch it at a friends house. I can't wait till it comes to DVD with extra features to enjoy. Anyone know the DVD release date?
Shaw's default mode seems to be 'pissy child' in every scene. EDIT: I just realized that when they fired, they put in the torpedo and phaser sound effects in the shot, but forgot to add the phaser beams. *facepalm*
I’m really struggling with this plot thread. Beverly is a widow, she knows the anguish of raising a son who does not know their father. Why would she do this. The writers seem only to grasp the facts of the TNG characters but not their temperament.
Jeez, only been 2 episodes! It's a 10 hour 'movie', so they're not going to give everything away in the first 5 mins. All explained in episode 3 if you really want to know.
The manifolds were clear when they warped in because they were in empty space. Now that they’ve been inside the nebula, those manifolds will be heating up from the nebula clouds, so they can’t just warp out like they did in. Think the Briar Patch from Star Trek: Insurrection.
What’s up with the new video filter in this episode? High contrast, overblown whites to cover up the cheap CGI. Compare to the colors and contrast of the first episode. They’ve realized CGI looks terrible in this and are trying to “enhance “ the visuals by applying cheap white clipping, high contrast filters.
THIS is what we've wanted for 3 seasons!!! The first two seasons were complete trash. Wish they could convince Stewart to to this version of the show for three more seasons...it is SOOO good!
What the fudge is up with this dang show? Why in every episode so far in season 3 do they have to use sacrilegious blasphemy? Is that what we’ve come to in this twisted world? Are we incapable of writing anything decent any more? Sad. Just sad. 😔
hey just wondering is it just me or is anyone else noticing low production values like special-effects things like this. The special effects for the ships and everything just seemed to look without any detail like real cost cutters. It looks like they just put the show together for a quick buck using headline names… Hmmm and the second season was really bad… Just my view what do you think?
I hated that the logic for not turning him over washim being Picard's son, there was such a good tng vibe when Picard had been arguing the philosophy of not turning him over because he should get a fair trial, got cheapened when the only thing that made him actually take action to ensure that, and the only thing that made shaw go along with it, was some kind of nepotism. Imagine being a bridge officer hearing your captain at first willing to sacrifice a random guy for the lives of the whole crew, but then changing his mind and risking his crew for the random guy because of his famous father. Ah well, I'm still liking the season so far.
_Star Trek: Lost in the Retirement Home_ Picard can’t even give an order without him crying. This is a dimly lit TV show with semi-familiar images and sounds from a series 25 years ago. It’s sad AF.
@@JeffFavignano _Star Trek: Poopy Pants Picard_ Either Picard is crying or he took a massive dump in his admiral pants. I believe fans will look back to this era and ignore _Current Trek_ as non-canon. Who knew Nemesis would be peak Star Trek?
Remember PICARD?! Remember CRUSHER?! Remember when KIRK HAD A SON?! Remember SEVEN?! Consume product and talk about old product and new product! Remember when TREK WAS GOOD AND HAD SOMETHING TO SAY?! Oh wait, forget that one. PLEASE!
Well I am not going to watch it. I am not interested in the adventures of the space rangers. Can't call it Star Trek anymore. I actually don't Care about Jack crusher and Picard anymore. After 2 miserable season's this is not enough to bring me back
That was the most powerful "Engage!" I've heard from him in a long time.

Wow good to finally see Patrick Stewart's commanding voice and presence to return.

Since Tapestry at least
0:56 "Belay that! Admiral's orders! Lock it down! Shuttles, transporters. The boy stays here."

I wonder if they are setting up a new spin-off show with Shaw and Seven. Cause, unless things fall apart later on the season, I'd watch the hell out of that.
Hero captains got plot armor, in reality I would much rather serve under Shaw’s command.

Goddamn that's the Jean-Luc I've been waiting for & have missed. At last.
This scene made me love Shaw. He’s stubborn, but he does care about doing the right thing.
As a villain, Vadic is an absolute joy. A welcome change for sure.

It was at this point that we all collectively knew that Jean Luc Picard, and Star Trek, had returned.
I knew it before the series started I felt it in me bones 😊
this is the kobayashi moment for shaw...
That was amazing…
My biggest problem with season 3 is it took them 3 seasons to get this show right.
Picard's answer should have been.."No one fucks with a Picard!"
This is very simple yet so good. Her laughing and yelling "follow him" is so evil.
One look was all it took.

It’s just the clip. When the episode aired, a over contrasted version aired
Former captain (now admiral) of the Enterprise learns he has fathered a grown child with a former love/scientist….hmmmm, this feels familiar?????

I love this scene. Would Beverly have given birth during season 2? Perhaps they got it on during the Naked Now, when things got...spicy.
It was years after that
What the fudge is up with this dang show? Why in every episode so far in season 3 do they have to use sacrilegious blasphemy? Is that what we’ve come to in this twisted world? Are we incapable of writing anything decent any more? Sad. Just sad. 😔
Way to much blasphemy. It’s complete garbage.
Why did Crusher name her son after her late husband? Why does John Crusher have a British accent? Accents are not geneticly in herited.
My guess is Jack is a nickname. Another alias
hey just wondering is it just me or is anyone else noticing low production values like special-effects things like this. The special effects for the ships and everything just seemed to look without any detail like real cost cutters. It looks like they just put the show together for a quick buck using headline names… Hmmm and the second season was really bad… Just my view what do you think?
I hated that the logic for not turning him over washim being Picard's son, there was such a good tng vibe when Picard had been arguing the philosophy of not turning him over because he should get a fair trial, got cheapened when the only thing that made him actually take action to ensure that, and the only thing that made shaw go along with it, was some kind of nepotism. Imagine being a bridge officer hearing your captain at first willing to sacrifice a random guy for the lives of the whole crew, but then changing his mind and risking his crew for the random guy because of his famous father.
Ah well, I'm still liking the season so far.

Picard can’t even give an order without him crying. This is a dimly lit TV show with semi-familiar images and sounds from a series 25 years ago. It’s sad AF.
@@JeffFavignano _Star Trek: Poopy Pants Picard_
Either Picard is crying or he took a massive dump in his admiral pants. I believe fans will look back to this era and ignore _Current Trek_ as non-canon. Who knew Nemesis would be peak Star Trek?

Remember PICARD?!
Remember CRUSHER?!
Remember when KIRK HAD A SON?!
Remember SEVEN?!
Consume product and talk about old product and new product!
Remember when TREK WAS GOOD AND HAD SOMETHING TO SAY?!
Oh wait, forget that one. PLEASE!
Well I am not going to watch it. I am not interested in the adventures of the space rangers. Can't call it Star Trek anymore. I actually don't Care about Jack crusher and Picard anymore. After 2 miserable season's this is not enough to bring me back
Glad they got rid of that alphabet shit.....
Botox Crusher looks creepy
