Really can’t wait for Star Trek: Picard. Easily one of my most anticipated shows in a long time. Just hope it lives up.

From the description of the short clip they showed, I wonder if Picard is suffering from dementia (or the 24th Century equivalent of it)? That would be a really interesting take....

Kind of similar to his role as Professor X in Logan if that’s the case. I don’t know I’d kind of rather that not be how he’s portrayed personally, but either way I’m still anticipating this.

Maybe he really does have Irumodic syndrome, like was shown in All Good Things.

Those don't seem like the right uniforms for that time period. They should be the grey shoulders with colored under-tunics.

Unless it's a flashback or holodeck.

Mike86 05-16-19 05:54 PM

Re: More Star Trek TV projects (including Picard series) in development
 
That must be a flashback or something. No way they’d get that wrong. Kind of seems weird there would be a flashback involving the DS9/VOY uniforms though. The only time the TNG crew wore that style of uniform was in Generations. After that they switched over to the gray and black.

Yeah, I don’t need another of my icons torn down. Granted I realize this is going to be an old(er) man Picard, but I’d rather him not be frail in the sense that he’s lost his mind or something.

Looking forward to ST: PICARD. If they have similar writing and production quality of ST: Discovery it's going to be great series.

I hope he's going to be on a starship. That picture doesn't really instill too much confidence.

Are those actually the same as the DS9/VOY uniforms? The colored shoulders match them, but the collars look higher.

Didn't notice that. The DS9/VOY uniforms cut off at the neck and they wore an undershirt.

I think I read something on Twitter that said for legal reasons (CBS owns Star Trek, but Paramount still owns the movies, and there are other legal entanglements as well), they can't use the same exact uniforms seen in the series or movies, so they're slightly modified. I get the movies part, but am unsure about why they couldn't copy TNG or Voyager - maybe because that look was used in the first couple of TNG features?

Superman07 05-20-19 09:05 PM

Re: More Star Trek TV projects (including Picard series) in development
 
If I recall, the TNG, DS9 and Voyager uniforms had an evolution. It’s possible these could fit somewhere in between what we’ve seen. Or they’re an alternative reality. Or they’re on earth, so perhaps cadet uniforms at the academy? Or they’re the same, and were just going off of fuzzy internet pictures. ;)

There were a few different uniforms in the the TNG/DS9/VOY era.

TNG:
department colored uniforms with black upper/shoulder section without collar (seasons one and two)
department colored uniforms with black upper/shoulder section with collar (season three through seven, as well as some of the crew in Generations)
black uniform with department colored upper/shoulder section and gray undershirt (Generations
black uniform with gray upper/shoulder section with department colored undershirt (First Contact, Insurrection, and Nemesis)

DS9:
black uniform with department colored upper/shoulder section and gray undershirt (seasons one through part of season five I believe)
black uniform with gray upper/shoulder section and department colored undershirt (season five through seven)

VOY:
black uniform with department colored upper/shoulder section and gray undershirt (seasons one through seven)

Pretty sure that's accurate. :lol:

I’m glad it doesn’t seem like it’s going to be a situation where he’s lost his facilities or something. Curious to find out what caused him to leave Starfleet though. Easily one of my most hyped shows in a long time.

DJariya 05-23-19 12:03 PM

Re: More Star Trek TV projects (including Picard series) in development
 
Didn't Picard say in the series he was planning to retire and work in a winery? So that seems up to par for what a retired Picard would be doing.

Decent 1st teaser. I'm really looking forward to it.

15 years ago you led us out of the darkness and commanded the greatest rescue armada in history. What event would this be referring to? First Contact, Nemesis, or something else? They had originally said the new series would take place 20 years after Nemesis, then Stewart reffered to it being 20 years after the end of the tv series. Now it's 15 years after some major event wheather it happened onscreen or not. It alludes to something happening that caused him to lose his faith. If it refers to losing his faith in Starfleet with something that happened onscreen than it would seem unlikely or odd that he would have stayed to be promoted to Admiral.

Funny, I don't think the teaser nixes that idea at all. I think it strengthens it. He left because he was starting to lose his memory. :(

I don’t know. Seems to me more like there was an incident that caused him to leave. Either something tragic or something that he didn’t agree with his Starfleet superiors on. I don’t feel like it’s a memory thing, but who knows at this point.

Draven 05-24-19 12:04 AM

Re: More Star Trek TV projects (including Picard series) in development
 
I’m sure the “rescue armada” will be something major that is depicted on the show. And something from that brings him back.

Can’t wait for this - my wife and I originally bonded over TNG so we’re both stoked.

He was already losing faith in general with the death of his nephew in Generations.

According to the Star Trek timeline, Spock vanishing and the destruction of the Romulan homeworld happened in 2387. If this is the event they are referring to then the new show would take place in 2402, about 23 years after Nemesis. If this "event" happened after the initial sscene in the 2009 movie, we would be beyond 2402 for the new series which would make Picard 100 years old. The writers say they want to keep the new series contemporary and reflect current day issues. So I wonder if the event from 15 years ago will have paralells to 9/11 and as others have mentioned could have something to do with immigration of Romulans to other worlds.

Re: More Star Trek TV projects (including Picard series) in development
 
I always though the Star Trek Enterprise Xindi story arc was the latest Trek came to addressing contemporary storyline similar to 9/11.

I think of anything, the Federatikn dealing with an influx of immigrants from Romulus and those fleeting war would be more apt (ala Syria). I’m not up on Star Trek online, but I think the Federation are at war with the Klingons and the Dominion. I believe it’s canom, but I suppose they could always pull a Star Wars and decide the extended universe type stuff goes out the window.

There are at least three different "extended universes" in Star Trek right now (novels, comics, and STO), and odds are they're all getting tossed. But unlike with Star Wars, no one (who paid attention) was under the illusion that these would be protected if new television/movie projects came along.

It won't. Simply because Paramount owns the Star Trek movies, while CBS owns the TV series. The story of JJ Abrams' movie won't play a part in this, I almost guarantee it. Too many potential legal problems.

EXCLUSIVE: “I’m really so delighted, and I can’t believe I get a chance to be part of this,” Pulitzer Prize-winning author Michael Chabon told Deadline last fall about joining the writers room of CBS All AccessStar Trek: Picard series as an executive producer. The lifelong Star Trek fan has now been named showrunner of the Star Trek revival that is bringing Trek icon Patrick Stewart back into Federation space.

Chabon, who had been part of the core creative team on the series, is working closely on the day-to-day production with fellow executive producers, veteran Star Trekwriter/producer Akiva Goldsman, and Alex Kurtzman, who continues to oversee the expansion of the growing Star Trek universe for CBS TV Studios.
