It’s on Amazon Prime here. Suck it, Yanks!
Wait until the series is complete, then get a 7 (or 30?) day trial thru amazon or elsewhere.
I have mine thru Amazon - and it comes in handy for other shows as well.
So he ignored Jim Kirk’s advice.
Same here. It’s not on PrimeVideo in the US?
It is. Amazon Prime strikes again!
Not for me it’s not. I have Amazon Prime, it wants me to subscribe to CBS on demand to watch Picard.
Easter Eggs for ep 1. The writers put in a lot of little details for fans of TNG
Obviously there are spoilers.
It’s on regular cable here in Canada. (CTV SciFi, who also carry Discovery.)
And Crave, it seems.
I see on my SciFi broadcast that the channel is in free preview (Shaw Cable, Calgary). I’m not sure if SciFi is in my package of channels and the free preview could go away before the end of Picard’s run. If you’re watching on SciFi you might want to check that out.
I do have Crave, so I’m set for the whole run.
CTV SciFi is definitely part of our package…has been since it was Space. (If it isn’t in yours, though, it’ll definitely go away by the time Picard ends…it ends at the end of the month, I’m pretty sure.)
Dudes that episode was mostly fantastic. I’m SO IN the Star Trek Online commercial almost had me booting up my old account…but then I remembered i was always terribly confused even when i was playing. A revisit would be a nightmare.
After the CBS All Access site thwarted my attempts to watch it, I saw it on YT under the title: Star Trek: Picard | Free Series Premiere Episode | CBS All Access
New one on this week as we speak, I believe.
Very much a fan of the Irish-Romulan housekeeper/ex-spy. I really didn’t expect the phrase “cheeky feckers” to ever feature in Star Trek.
Or “fucking hubris” either.
That kind of pulled me out of the episode. I wasn’t surprised to hear “shit” earlier in the episode, since they had used it in several of the movies, but that was new to me.
One thing that bugs me.
Data and Lore were the only successful positronic brain Android’s in the TNG world. Then B4 gets created. Androids are unique and difficult to successfully build.
Trek Picard is set 20 years later. Now there’s a lot of Androids? It seems unlikely the Technology could shift that quickly.
I guess we have to accept the premise. Still seems unlikely.
[SPOILER] Androids work on the Mars Federation shipyard until they revolt.
They were then banned in the Federation.
All this happens between TNG time and Trek Picard?
[/SPOILER]
What set Data/Lore apart wasn’t their bodies, it was their sentience, and I don’t thing the androids on Mars were supposed to be sentient. It certainly didn’t look like they had positronic brains.
B4 was built before Data and Lore, and there was also Juliana Tainer.
It’s been made pretty clear that the synths on Mars are very primitive compared to Data and Lore, and Agnes Jurati states more than once that Bruce Maddox was never able to duplicate Soong’s work.
