    The reboot movies made me appreciate TOS characters like Bones and Uhura only more.

    I like Urban in pretty much anything he does. Quinto too

    But Deforest Kelly and Nimoy are just about the hardest character actors to emulate

    I'm going to get super nerdy now;

    Kelley's full name is Jackson Deforest Kelley.

    The Deforest part was named after Lee De Forest, who invented this

    Episode 5, awesome again

    Seeing Icheb again, even though breifly was trippy

    Jeri Ryan didnt look that much older, still looked like she is up for some convincing arse kicking scenes in future episodes


    I hope they somehow squeeze B'Elanna in somewhere, she was my fav from Voyager

    Yes it was Icheb from star trek voyager but he was played by a different actor.

    Also, Patrick Stewart really wants Guinan (Whoopi Goldberg) to join the crew, and he would like to see
    Geordi La Forge (LeVar Burton) back in a one-time cameo performance

    Just looked it up, her net worth is $45 Million and she gets $5 million a year from The View

    So not sure she'd give a shit about a cameo

    I think he really wants her back because we’re going to seeing more of the Borg, and her race the El-Aurians were driven from their homeworld long ago by the Borg collective.
    There’s also the revenge factor just like Seven of Nine

    Btw If she did make an appearance that old uniform of hers would only make her appear even more rotund than she currently is…lol..

    We totally enjoyed Star Trek Picard.... it is freaking awesome (said over the second shot of Tequila).

    It was a bit confusing at first, as is true of all new shows. But once I figured out the plot I began to really enjoy it more.

    I'd really like to see Whoopi and Geordi back, even for cameos. The episode with Number One and Ms Troi was great... it's nice to see people aging gracefully... like me :)

    I remember 'clearly'* watching the original series way back then in black and white in Katonah, New York. My dad was always too cheap to pay for a color tv. He never bought one in his entire life! My sister finally gave them one...in the 80s. They lived with that cathode ray tube device until they met their maker... (talk about off topic posts, sorry...it's the Tequila talking now).

    It was a fuzzy picture to say the least. But made an indelible impression.

    The final episode of the next generation showed Riker in command of the Enterprise D. So the future that Q showed Picardy has already been altered.
