Star Trek: Picard “The Last Generation” – Review

Keiran McEwen — Thu, 14 Nov 2024 18:00:23 +0000

Oh no, not Philadelphia, anything but Philadelphia! Written and directed by top shagger Terry Matalas, there really isn’t anything to add to his credits. At least other than what I already have throughout this third season of Star Trek: Picard. Or the eighth season of TNG, whichever you prefer. In the wake of Jack running off to see Alice Krige, though with Jane Edwina Seymour’s body…

Star Trek: Picard “Võx” – Review

Keiran McEwen — Thu, 07 Nov 2024 18:00:06 +0000

Like father, like son. Directed by the man himself, Terry Matalas helms the chair for only the second show he’s directed and the 5th episode of a show he was show-running. The other is 12 Monkeys. “Võx” is also written by Sean Tretta, writing his third and final episode of Star Trek: Picard. Which was co-written by story editor Kiley Rossetter, also her final role as writer for Picard.

Star Trek: Picard “Surrender” – Review

Keiran McEwen — Thu, 31 Oct 2024 17:00:19 +0000

You will surrender, surrender to the… we’ll leave that for a while. Still directed by Deborah Kampmeier, there isn’t much to say there that hasn’t already been said. While “Surrender” is written by someone I’ve bemoaned multiple times over in a previous season, Matthew Okumura. Okumura was the story editor for most of season 2, as well as part of this season. Giving up the reigns following “No Win…

Star Trek: Picard “Dominion” – Review

Keiran McEwen — Thu, 24 Oct 2024 17:00:38 +0000

Geordi got his friend back in a synthetic body alongside his brother, and Deanna and Bill are prisoners of Vadic, but at least we’ve got Tuvok. Kind of. Directed by Deborah Kampmeier, Kampmeier is known for directing some indie things, that Walking Dead anthology, an episode of Discovery, and of course that Josh Brolin-led neo-Western Sci-fi thing that was canned after two seasons, Outer Range.

Star Trek: Picard “The Bounty” – Review

Keiran McEwen — Thu, 17 Oct 2024 17:00:17 +0000

Oh fun, so Jack is a sleeper agent and we’ve got the Samurai, Raffi, and the Titan coming together as one. Directed by Dan Liu once again, this is the last of his work until the airing of “Lost in Translation.” An episode that would air only a couple of months after this Star Trek: Picard’s season and “The Bounty” itself, of course. Written by, in a rare show of form from Star Trek of late…

Star Trek: Picard “Imposters” – Review

Keiran McEwen — Thu, 10 Oct 2024 17:00:27 +0000

The sexy samurai is back, the Changelings are remaining in solid form, mention of the dominion war, Bajorans, Ro Laren, and the Maquis, did this episode start with the PornHub intro? Directed by Shadow and Bone, For All Mankind, and Strange New Worlds director, Dan Liu starts his two-episode run helming Star Trek: Picard. While Cindy Appel returns for her final episode following “Seventeen Seconds…

Star Trek: Picard “No Win Scenario” – Review

Keiran McEwen — Thu, 03 Oct 2024 17:00:56 +0000

I hate saying gatekeeper stuff, but there is no other way to describe it, Season 3 of Star Trek: Picard feels like it is finally written and produced by Star Trek fans, for Star Trek fans. Directed by your captain today, we’re once again treated to directing that puts normal directors to shame. Writing only his second episode of Star Trek, following on from “Disengage,” Sean Tretta is joined by…

Star Trek: Picard “Seventeen Seconds” – Review

Keiran McEwen — Thu, 26 Sep 2024 17:00:36 +0000

With Frakes at the helm, you knew that “Seventeen Seconds” was going to be 17 seconds because he’s the type of person to take these things seriously. Directed by the serial leg-cocker himself, “Seventeen Seconds” had to be the early emotional heart of the series. Written by two women we’ve spoken about before: Anne, Bellevue, and The Man Who Fell to Earth writer Jane Maggs returns for her fourth…

Star Trek: Picard “Disengage” – Review

Keiran McEwen — Thu, 19 Sep 2024 17:00:50 +0000

Part 2 “Disengage,” that’s what she said last night when she had a sore head. Directed once again by Aarniokoski, this comes weeks after he directed the S.W.A.T. episode “Lion’s Share” about kids wanting to kill some developers for basically stealing their family’s land. It is also Doug’s last episode of Picard ahead of his final directorial job on Discovery with “Under the Twin Moons.

Star Trek: Picard “The Next Generation” – Review

Keiran McEwen — Thu, 12 Sep 2024 17:00:08 +0000

These are the voyages of the Starship Titan-A. Written by Terry Matalas, season 3 of Picard is helmed by the new showrunner to close out the chapter of Picard (the show) and Picard (the bald bloke). Directed by Doug Aarniokoski, Aarniokoski returns from last season’s openers and season 1’s “Nepenthe.” Christopher B Derrick is also promoted to story editor alongside Kiley 279 namesake…
