What do you guys think it will be about?

I think its going to be cloak and dagger and Picard is going to be some sort of diplomat or something but actually a secret time travelling operative for Section 31 with his own ship like the USS Defiant and Data will be his batman.

Kirk certainly should be

I hope it's a spinoff of The Inner Light. Perhaps a sitcom about Kamin's attempts to adapt to his new town/family.

Maybe Picard will have a time travelling cameo in Star Trek Discovery.

I like these new Star Trek movies and shows. They are more like Star Wars.

will he only appear in first episode as a counceler and then die off heroicly at the end of episode 1?

Maybe he'll be a renegade who stole a ship after being discharged for mental degradation. He does have that rare degenerative disease.

Its gotta be section 31

Maybe he teaches Sicko to stop being a butch about his dead wife and then knocks up Beverly before he teaches the Cardassians how many lights there are

Wow this article will piss off rednecks. I think maybe the new Picard show will be about Section 31 and also the Mirror universe where Spock has a beard and Worf is THE boss of the Klingons.

By JAMIE LOVETT - March 3, 2019

Casting for Star Trek’s new Picard series has begun.

On Friday, CBS All Access announced Hanelle Culpepper will direct the first two episodes of the new series, which star Patrick Stewart. On Twitter, Culpepper confirmed that casting for the series is already underway.

By directing the Picard pilot, Culpeper is the first woman to helm the launch of a new Star Trek series in the franchise’s 53-year history. She made her Star Trek debut directing the episode “Vaulting Ambition” in Star Trek: Discovery’s first season. She also directed the upcoming 10th episode of Discovery’s second season.

“Hanelle is a gifted and dynamic filmmaker whose directorial choices are always deeply rooted in character,” Alex Kurtzman, Discovery’s co-creator, executive producer and showrunner said. “I’ve been a fan of her work since she started with us on Discovery, and she’s the perfect person to re-introduce the beloved character of Picard to longtime fans and new viewers alike. We’re thrilled she’s joining our Trek family on this next adventure.”

Culpeper is working with producers and a writers’ room that share her love of Picard. Kurtzman told ComicBook.com at the TCA 2019 Winter Press Tour about that and about how the new show differs from Star Trek: The Next Generation.

“Everybody in that room loves Jean-Luc Picard very deeply, and obviously, the benefit that we have is that Jean-Luc Picard is in the room with us,” Kurtzman said. “And so, as we're breaking story, we're asking ourselves, ‘How do we live to the spirit, and to the character, and for the tone that Next Gen set, but also make it something very, very different in other ways?’ And Patrick was really clear with us from the beginning. He did not want to repeat what he had already done. And by the way, it's been 20 plus years, so he couldn't possibly be that same person anymore.

“And so, the question becomes, ‘What has happened to him in that period of time? Have there been occurrences that forced him to reckon with choices that he's made in his life? How do you hold on to being the person everybody loved when the circumstances around you may have changed so radically?’ And those are the big questions that we're asking.”

According to Stewart, the show will have a different storytelling style than The Next Generation.

“We’re hoping for more than one season,” Stewart said. “And with this first series, and this is one of the things that’s so interesting about the writers’ room, they are writing a 10-hour movie. In The Next Generation, it was a story, a different story, a different story, all with the same characters as many series are. But this time it is one story, from beginning to end. I hope that will lead people to...binge-watching, that it might lead to something like that because the idea of it being an unfolding narrative is really terrific.”

Are you excited to see the new Picard series? Let us know in the comments.

The Picard series begins filming in California in April and will premiere in late 2019 on CBS All Access.

I am not looking forward to the new Picard ST. Patrick Stewart is old now, the man looks frail. How are they going to make it work? I'll likely watch anyway, but I am not optomistic. I was high on the new Discovery ST for a while, but second season seems boring. That fucking 'missing spock' storyline is going nowhere

Title of the show has been revealed.

Star Trek: Picard.

Kind of an uninspired title but I'm looking forward to it.

any indication his dog is alien?

CrownRoyal
Member Fri Jan 24 07:22:47
I ddidn't see any indications, but I wasn't paying attention. Picard has this stafford bull terrier- type dog, named Number One, naturally. That was a good first episode, no question about it. Fast paced, with good fights, a story line that I understood for a change, and a nice closing shot

I dont want to shit on CR's happiness over Picard returning, so I'll refrain from being too negative about the show.

But I will say that TNG being an action series has never worked out in the past.

CrownRoyal

You can say whatever you feel about any show, that wouldn't ruin my happiness one bit. I don't expect people to have same tv taste. But I appreciate the sentiment.

CrownRoyal
Member Fri Jan 24 10:31:27
Valid point on TNG and action. Times are certainly different, this is not network TV anymore, they even swear(!) now. But I don't expect Picard show to become some sort of action packed Bourn style program

If this first episode is any indication, nothing can be further from correct description than 'Sherlock Holmes in Space'. Unless you mean something like Guy Ritchie's Sherlock Holmes

Exactly that Sherlock. Nice touch mentioning director, not actor. I had to google.

I think Patrick Stewart's contract is only for 3 seasons and they will phase the show into being about new characters if it continues to be successful.

*sigh* I hate getting older. All my childhood heroes are getting older too or get exposed as vicious rapists.
