To the people that have finished it. Is it worth it to continue if I disliked Season 1?

Just for context: I hate STD, but really like SNW. I also really like all the old stuff apart from the original series. Yes even Voyager and Enterprise.

Season 3 of Picard was produced by a new showrunner and it's really noticeable. It's like night and day. The show still has a couple of problems but overall season 3 was really good. There was an emotional moment towards the end of the season (I don't want to spoil anything) that let me relive my childhood while staring at the screen in disbelief, in a positive way. It's hard to put into words. But on an emotional level season 3 really delivered.

Also, take a look at the IMDb episode ratings. I think that speaks for itself.

tl;dr – skip season 2, that was trash. Go straight to season 3 and enjoy.

Not STD, but DIS. With that one, Season 1 is retroactively the best one lol. As for PIC, Skip the first two seasons, but I really liked the 3rd one.

Im confused. Are you saying Season 3 of Discovery is good or Season 3 of Picard? I honestly couldn't care less about Discovery.

[–] dustojnikhummer 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Season 1 of Discovery is okay (I really liked the Terran storyline but many didn't). S02 is also okay-ish thanks to Anson Mount. Season 3 and 4 of DIS are awful, you won't miss out on anything.

As for PIC, S01 is trash, S02 is trash, S03 is quite good.

Thanks for clearing that up!
