You mean you didn’t like the series where they made friends with the Borg, and set up their friend as Queen of the Borg, but the very next time they encountered the Borg, everyone was scared and knew they were the enemy, and they could only defeat them with the Power of Nostalgia?
The plot was weak, and it leaned way too heavily on the nostalgia factor to get views. It also ignored the developments with the Borg in season 2 just to have an excuse to bring up Locutus.
It could have been so much better, but they concentrated on ‘getting the band back together’ instead of an actual reason for them to get together.
Surely over the 30+ years of in universe time, the crew have served with other good officers who would have their backs, while being old enough to not be affected by the magic Borg mind control. This could have also given us new characters that were actually at risk of dying, rather than giving us a pretty much indestructible crew, excluding, of course, the single disposable crew member, and the token death to show ‘our’ Borg that she’s been accepted.
It was a poor season, propped up by childhood memories.
I understand that, but I still think that it was done badly. There’s a big difference between nostalgia and throwing everything out to have a This Is Your Life type guest special.
All of Star Trek: Picard.

I mean I can compress any story you like into 3 sentences making it sound completely silly. Is there a point to make?
Yes. Picard season 3 was badly done.

I see you are correct.

I’d say most of S1 and S2 and half of S3.
So, basically, yeah.
Season 3 was an awesome reunion show for TNG fans
It was considerably less diarrhea inducding then the first 2 seasons. But far from awersome.
They could have come out and sung WAP and it would still be awesome to see the crew back together.
