I’ve always wondered if one could hatch a replicated egg. ---

Our very first ep in nearly 20 years and BAM HUMANITY IS ON TRIAL!!! And Picard surrendered his ship to Q in the same ep, giving rise to the customary French-military jokes. Then he tried to do it again to the Ferengi just four episodes later! ---

Huge bump. A new trailer has been released with our first look at Troi and Riker since the abominable _Enterprise_ finale. > **[‘Star Trek: Picard’ Trailer: Jean-Luc Reunites With Old Friends](https://theplaylist.net/star-trek-picard-nycc-20191005/)** > > In the new trailer for ‘Star Trek: Picard,’ Patrick Stewart’s Jean-Luc Picard reunites with some old friends on his way to save the galaxy.

Best trailer so far. This series may be really good. It’s a shame most fans won’t be able to see it. I’m not signing up to a streaming service to watch one show. ---

That _does_ look pretty good. Too busy to watch it in coming months, though. ---

Good to see that someone in Hollywood understands that there is so much more to Trek than good sci-fi stories. It has always been about the characters. ---
