    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.

      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.
