———————

Just finished the finale. I will probably binge the whole season to get a better grasp of some of the events, but…

1) I like the Wesley/Traveller call back. Making him the leader of the Watchers actually makes some sense. I like they officially placed Gary Seven in this organization earlier in the season. Continuity is good. They should have also had him visit the FBI agent. That would have closed a minor hole as well (the actor played a Federation Time Agent in a Voyager episode).

2) I still can’t stand Allison Pill. I don’t know if it was a helmet she was wearing, or if it was makeup or just SFX, but she looked extra horrible in this episode.

3) Big swerve for Q. I will hold my judgement on that until I watch the season again. It doesn’t make sense as it sits now.

4) Why did Tallin have to die? Did she not know that Soong was going to poison her?

5) WTF was that Khan file all about? The Supermen Revolution took place in the 1990s. He fled Earth with his followers in (I think) 1996. But Soong is going to begin the process of creating the Super Men starting in 2024? I will have to see what theories exist for that online.

6) That looked like a very small beam to have the ability to wipe out most of the Sector (“This Sector” includes the Alpha, Beta, Gamma and Delta quadrants?). That is a pretty massive volume. and 2-3 dozen ships with a Borg Queen ship are big enough to block it?

7) Did I miss them reveal Tallin’s and Laris’ connection? Is Laris some kind of descendant? Is she a watcher/traveller as well?
 
Season 3 trailer:

 
Who wrote Worf’s dialog in s3? Jesus, it’s terrible

He was a toxic Klingon before. They had to make him see the error in his ways and find peace and enlightenment.

Thats not even what I’m commenting on.
His dialogue is stiff and perfunctory. It’s as if they wrote an outline of dialogue, then forgot to punch it up.
 
Season 3 actually started hard. But damn it got bland and vanilla and very not trek
 
I Love all things Star Trek, but I have mixed feelings about Picard. Seasons 1 and 2 were ok, not great but didn't suck either.
Season 3 is basically just a TNG reunion show.

It was fun for fan service, but beyond that? They took 9 episodes to finally complete act 1. Now they will have to get though acts 2 and 3 in one episode.

Not only that, but since this season is involving Changelings, you'd think they'd have more DS9 tie ins, Worf is the token DS9 link.
True some characters they wouldn't be able to do, Sisko is still presumably with The Prophets and Jadzia is dead. You'd think they could've maybe had Kira or better yet O'Brien since he was both TNG and DS9. Could have been interesting the have Bashir and something with Section 31. Odo is tricky, Rene Auberjonois passed away, but they could have gotten his son Remy who looks an awful lot like him.

I agree they spent so much time with all this other stuff, now they're going to have to try and cram so much into one episode.
 
I liked my initial theory that Bev went to Bashir for some help during her pregnancy (maybe Borg-related?) and Bashir (without Bev’s knowledge) enhanced Jack (either to his own motives, or on direction from S31) and his abilities were a result of that. Bashir’s ethics were always questionable at best to begin with, so this would not have been a stretch.

That said, making Jack a biological Borg is interesting, they just took WAY too long to get there.
 
They should just call this season what it is, a 10 episode TNG fan service jerkoff.
