      How not once did Picard hang dong in the entire series. Writers just don’t understand what people want these days.

      Seriously. You can barely get through all the problems in Picard season 1 in just four hours.

      Why even do a video if you’re just going to half ass it?

      I think the first two hours was her going over Star Trek, then through season 1 in detail (probably too much), then realizing how long she’d been on it and flying through seasons 2 & 3 in an hour, and then finally about 3 hours in actually getting to the title subject.

      She makes some good points about season 3 being about just as dumb as the other seasons, despite being “the better” season. Having every young officer in Starfleet simultaneously assimilated by the Borg and turning on/killing a large number of older officers has given a huge number of them PTSD for years and created a large number of older officers who now hate anyone younger that turned. They hand-waved the solution and it’s just like, “Hey, it’s all cool now!”, but the mental damage would traumatize a good portion of Starfleet for a generation or more.

        Legit, we saw how both Wolf359 and the dominion war utterly fucked up Starfleet and the federation, the absolute nightmare fuel of an assimilation virus would swnd both right over the edge, full howard hughes

      I don’t know about this video but for a lot of her stuff it’s absolutely worth the longer videos.

        If this the same person who did the 2 hour Disney Star Wars hotel one? I put that on because of the buzz about it on Lemmy, just expecting to get the idea and quit after 2 minutes. Ended up watching the whole damn thing.

          That was Jenny Nicholson, and it was also 4 hours. Also not an outlier, all of her long form content is amazing and worth watching, even if you aren’t directly interested in the topic.

          I’ve watched her The Vampire Diaries video multiple times, and a CW teen show about vampires is about as far removed from my wheelhouse as it gets.
