A good theory to one angle of the story, one that will intrigue a great many fans:

Star Trek Picard is Bringing Back a Dark Next Generation Storyline

I know it is just a trailer but again everything of interest to me Riker, Troi, Data, Seven...Awesome. Everything else looks completely blah to me. I guess I will give another Trek series a try, and just hope for the best.

Although I would have liked a better hair thing on Data.

Agreed, it doesn't look quite right, but I'm willing to give this show a lot of wiggle room before it debuts. I want to judge it based on an entire episode or season, not three minutes here.

There was an aspect to this new trailer that gave me a sense of deja vu. It was sort of like All Good Things. An older Picard is trying to convince all his old colleagues to help him on a quest. Of course that plot was created by Q. And I know Patrick Stewart would not agree to do this series if it was a rehash. So the similarity to All Good Things may be just coincidence from what we are shown in the trailer.

By the way Bryan, your impression of this trailer reminded me of how I felt watching the first 1/2 hour of the DS9 pilot the first time. The shots showing the Borg attack at Wolf 359 was the stuff of TNG. Then we got to these new characters on DS9 and I was like, ok, the fun is over. .

For this series, I may have to join CBS. Was never to excited for Discovery (although I did like it, particularly the second season) but this is different.

That might me a simple rush job on the digital effects. Chances are it'll all be cleaned up by the time the show airs.

First look at Picard's admiral uniform from 2385:

I dig it. This is a new era of "Trek", and having new uniforms helps delineate that. Any time we see this style of uniform, we'll know we're in the "Picard" era.

Here's another look at it, from the upcoming third issue of the Picard: Countdown prequel comic-book series:

Also, I'm guessing that the onscreen flashbacks are gonna take place circa 2387, perhaps around the same time that the Hobus supernova destroys Romulus, if that dialogue from the teaser-trailers about the "rescue armada" are any indication (plus the imperial Romulan-insignia on the comic cover is probably a sign, too). Though apparently he did get promoted to the rank of admiral in 2381 (two years after the events of Nemesis), so I guess there's plenty of extra room for additional flashbacks set during those years, if needed.

Probably a pass for me but we'll see. Not crazy about social media driving what people ultimately decide to embrace. In my day we put it out there and it did what it did.

@joshEH i must be an idiot - I can’t find that comic to buy but I’d love to read it. What am I doing wrong?

You're not waiting until January 2020, when it actually comes out.

^ Yeah, the first issue comes out next month, and #3 (the final issue) should be out in January, right before the series itself premieres on CBS All Access. Should've mentioned that, but forgot to.

After the fiasco that is Discovery, it's a bit reassuring to see they got small things right for Picard, like the commbadge and the Admiral's boxed pips.

Although, to be sure, physical appearances have ALWAYS been a very fluid thing in Star Trek — for example, the new series is completely jettisoning the ‘80s/‘90s Michael Westmore Romulan forehead makeup-designs in favor of Neville Page’s makeup-designs from the 2009 J.J. Abrams film...which were, indeed, a return to the original 1960s concept of the “smooth-headed” Romulan species.

In this franchise, as we’ve seen time and time again, physical characteristics, be they of alien species, costume-designs, or of spaceships, are quite mutable and subject to change at the end of the day, even across different franchise-iterations involving the same character(s). It’s all about artistic expression, first and foremost.

This post literally makes no sense.

I guess you aren't a real fan.

I'll happily be not a "real fan" if it means I don't have to sit through the crappy Memberberries fanfic shoehorned into the TOS era for no good reason.

Patrick Stewart says it is likely we will see the rest of the cast of TNG in Picard. No word on whether this is in the first season or the second.

Star Trek: Patrick Stewart Hints at More Returning Next Generation Cast in Picard Series

During an appearance at the Destination Star Trek convention, Stewart gave fans hope they’ll see their wish come true. After praising his returning co-stars, Stewart posed a question. Stewart asked, “Will we meet the rest of the crew?” He then answered “I think so,” eliciting an ovation from the fans in attendance.

It makes sense and I am very open to special appearances if they make sense in context of the story itself. Don't just shoehorn people in just because. I've always said it would make sense to see the TNG crew in some capacity in Picard. Not every week or just a random "we bumped into each other," but for a logical reason.

I think if they did another “Worf! What the hell are you doing here?!” followed by trailing-off excusatory babble from the Klingon, I’d be on board with that.
