I answered this in my very first post:

I am well aware that she is not a member of the main cast of Picard. She had an arc in this episode, which is what we are discussing. It worked for you, for all the reasons you described, which is great.

But.....the question isn’t about what we think her availability or shooting schedule might be. The question is: did the way they told this story work for you? If it did, I am truly glad you enjoyed it. It didn’t work for me, and apparently a few others. 

Sure, I get what they are trying to do. I just don’t think they are going about it the right way. Beyond what I wrote in my initial post, we already got big hints that there is more going on here than we know and that Agnes had her own agenda. Zack and many others called out the meeting with Starfleet that Agnes had…

Mild spoiler for the Bojack finale follows:

After watching this episode, I am completely baffled as to what the creative team behind the show is doing. I have been uneasy for a bit, but willing to be patient. But I agree with all of the points in the review, and it was all a mess.

I played Vanquish years ago, and liked it. But it is also the source of one of my bigger gaming blunders. Keep in mind: I started gaming with Atari, and at this point I have been regularly engaging in this hobby for more than three decades. I would never be mistaken for any kind of expert, but I am emphatically not a…

Well, bad reviews or no my kids really want to see this. So, this is happening this weekend. After the sitting through the Emoji movie, nothing scares me anymore.

“And yet, I can’t shake the feeling that we’re missing some piece of the puzzle to explain how then became now, something more complicated than simply “time.””

I think that the stuff with Raffi not landing for people may be evidence that the show has not done a good job of selling the enormity of the Mars catastrophe. Because I can see this kind of event changing the Picard we know so that he would stay away from a friend for 14 years. He would convince himself it is because…

I finished over the weekend, and I just want to write a couple of quick points:

A crushing part of the episode that does not get talked about enough is the brilliant use of the theme music in Escape From LA. That is the only episode I remember that does not open with the regular theme song. The absence of that seems to hint that this could be a new, positive change for Bojack. It is evidence that…

Thank you everyone involved in Arrow-creators, cast, crew, everyone-for creating the foundation of the TV comic book universe I always dreamed of since watching 90's Flash as a kid. It was wonderful to watch this for eight years. The show was not perfect, but it was consistently entertaining (with the best action…

Excellent-Your friend is in really good hands!

One of the things I think Star Trek: Picard did a great job with was setting it up so that you do not have to watch Nemesis to get what is happening. All you really need to know is that Data died on their last mission together-even the B4 section you are concerned about explains that Data tried to graft himself onto…

I remember that we asked to change the lyrics, but my school was so scared that they just made us skip that part altogether. I don’t know if there was a high school version that the school still wasn’t comfortable using or what, but I remember that they said they would cancel it if Greased Lightning was in any way a…

I was in a high school production of Grease a loooooooong time ago, and even though it took up weeks of my life, the only thing I really remember about it is that the school insisted we cut the whole Greased Lightning number. Which was the right decision. I guess what I am saying is that nothing about Grease has left…

Now that I have watched the episode, I want to dive back in and say I really liked it. And this review is really great, and articulated nicely all of the reasons that Remembrance worked so well. This is not a surprise given the quality of Zack’s other work, but it should still be pointed out.

I agree with you-Generations really does collapse abruptly at the end. Up till then it is pretty good. And I always think that movie deserves more credit for its pure ambition. It is not often that a major motion picture features a story about our mortality and how it defines us. I’m not sure it fully works, but…

I agree with everything you posted. I thought that Stewart and Hardy were pretty great, Data’s death does indeed leave a mark (even though I do not think it should have been part of the movie) and the space battle that took up the last quarter was very well done. It is just that so much of the rest of it felt like a…
