Star Trek: Picard: Season 2 Review
Star Trek: Picard: Season 2 Review Star Trek: Picard is back with an opening salvo that's clearly fired up the proton torpedos against its season one critics/ The first season took what seemed like an aeon to get Jean-Luc Picard back among the stars, and then produced a story that faced crippling inertia as its 10 episodes carried on. But this time around, before the credits have even rolled in, Picard and his motley crew of ragtag renegades are seemingly blowing themselves into oblivion after activating a self-destruct mechanism due to the nefarious Borg Queen boarding their ship. Of course, starting matters in medias res is a powerful opener, but in the first episode of season two of Picard, the drama doesn't seem to be too far away even as you head to that apparent sequence of events. Large chunks of the first season were aimed mainly at the fans, ensuring this outing wasn't quite as broad as it could have been. Season 2 of the show makes no mistake about what it wants...
