Even though the new Picard series is being reported as a series on its own and not connected to Discovery, I still find I have little to no enthusiasm for the show considering 1) We’ve had 15 years of Picard (from TNG to Nemesis); and 2) CBS/Paramount seems to be unable to find, or care about finding, people who can write Prime Universe Trek competently. There’s also nothing to say that Sir Patrick will hold his character to the standard it should be set despite bad writing/directing/showrunning, as Mark Hamill took issue with Old Luke (at least at first) and yet portrayed Luke like that anyway.

I have more excitement for The Orville renewing for Season 2.
