If last week's episode of Paramount+'s Sir Patrick Stewart-starring Star Trek: Picard didn't give you enough of a sense of just how huge the danger that our heroes face this season is, an early sneak peek & preview images for S03E05 "Imposters" (directed by Dan Liu and written by Cindy Appel) definitely helped in that department[...]

The character Khan Noonien Singh, played by Ricardo Montalban, is arguably the greatest villain in Star Trek franchise history The actor turned an already memorable performance in The Original Series season one classic "Speed Seed" and set the bar for franchise cinematic excellence in 1982's Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan The film was[...]

File this under "this is why we can't have nice things." While the greater Star Trek community is happy that the franchise returned in the streaming era under Paramount+, people are still finding reasons to complain, and this time about all things… a little "potty mouth" on Jean-Luc's part For those of us caught up[...]

That said, we do have a preview for next week's episode, courtesy of Wil Wheaton & The Ready Room Here's the S03E05 "Imposter" (directed by[...]

Jonathan Frakes has been Star Trek royalty since his days as a featured cast member of The Next Generation because it helped bridge his second life as a director While he still occasionally acts, including reprising his role as William Riker on Paramount+ legacy sequel Picard, he's been far more involved behind the chair creatively[...]

It's not like viewers needed yet another reason to check out this week's episode of Paramount+'s Sir Patrick Stewart-starring Star Trek: Picard, but there's something about the wording that was attached to the tweet with the promo for S03E04 "No Win Scenario." It reads, "Whatever you think you know, something bigger is happening here[...]

Michael Dorn is the only Star Trek actor to be a featured cast member of two franchise series, The Next Generation and Deep Space Nine, along with the four TNG feature films Picard marks his live-action return to Worf since 2002's Nemesis We discover the beloved Federation lieutenant commander, and the modern Kahless of the[...]

As episode overviews go, the one that was released for Paramount+'s Sir Patrick Stewart-starring Star Trek: Picard S03E04 "No Win Scenario" is tending to lean towards the ominous side Granted, considering the position that our heroes are finding themselves in, maybe a bright & cheery overview would've been stranger Whatever the case, the description states[...]

Their latest project tackled the Star Trek franchise in the Paramount+ series Picard, which builds off the legacy of those like Jerry Goldsmith, who composed the original theme of 1979's Star Trek: The Motion Picture, which was repurposed to the theme of The Original Series spinoff The Next Generation Wiedmann and Barton are signed with[...]

It's probably to no one's surprise of Star Trek: Picard season three's success aside from the most cynical fans (which they would probably still find something to complain about if Gene Roddenberry came back from the dead and took back the franchise) Probably least surprised is executive producer and showrunner Terry Matalas, who went above[...]

Our line-up for this morning includes Paramount+'s Star Trek: Strange New Worlds star Anson Mount sharing heartfelt words for his "Dearest 'Discovery' Family," The Last of Us star Bella Ramsey predicting some massive divisions over the season finale, Big Finish Productions dropping some major intel on the first episode of its 60th Anniversary Doctor Who[...]

Earlier this week, "Star Trek" fans learned that they would be saying goodbye to two series by this time next summer Along with the currently streaming third & final season of Star Trek: Picard, Paramount+ announced that Star Trek: Discovery would be ending its run when it debuts its fifth season in early 2024 While[...]

The latest Star Trek: Picard follows up on the eventual reunion between Dr Beverly Crusher (Gates McFadden) and her former Enterprise-D captain and on-and-off again love Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) in the episode "Seventeen Seconds." The U.S.S Titan-A is in a dangerous battle with an overpowering enemy Vadic (Amanda Plummer), and her ship, the Shrike[...]

So the biggest bombshell to date early in Star Trek: Picard season three is that Ed Speleers' Jack Crusher is the secret child of Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) and Dr Beverly Crusher (Gates McFadden) Then again, one could have probably guessed that within the first few minutes of the season premiere after seeing his name[...]

Following on the heels of Paramount+'s Star Trek: Picard ending its run after three seasons, the streaming service confirmed that Star Trek: Discovery will end in early 2024 with its upcoming fifth season Based on the official description released, "the fifth and final season will find Captain Burnham and the crew of the U.S.S[...]

With S03E03 "Seventeen Seconds" less than 24 hours old, we're going to put a hold on any big spoilers of any kind (at least until our episode review goes live) for the third & final season of Paramount+'s Sir Patrick Stewart-starring Star Trek: Picard But with that said, we have a preview for next week's[...]

As we're two episodes in for Star Trek: Picard with the third's imminent premiere in "Seventeen Seconds," showrunner Terry Matalas may have tipped his hat as to who might be the next Next Generation alum to appear Aside from the Paramount+ series lead in Patrick Stewart playing the title character, we've already seen Gates McFadden's[...]

Paramount+'s Sir Patrick Stewart-starring Star Trek: Picard has a lot on its plate this week when S03E03 "Seventeen Seconds" hits our screens There's that "family reunion" between Jean-Luc (Stewart), Jack (Ed Speleers), and Dr Crusher (Gates McFadden) – which may be cut short permanently if our heroes can't escape Vadic's (Amanda Plummer) pursuit[...]

There's no question where Todd Stashwick's Captain Liam Shaw's loyalties lie two episodes in on Star Trek: Picard, and it certainly wasn't with Admiral Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) and Captain William Riker (Jonathan Frakes) When we meet him eating his blue "steak," our two heroes find out how exactly by-the-book he is running a tight[...]

Fans might not always be on top of casting announcements, but that doesn't stop Terry Matalas from answering leftover questions as it pertains to characters from previous seasons of Star Trek: Picard Entering season three, only Patrick Stewart (Jean-Luc Picard), Jeri Ryan (Seven of Nine), Michelle Hurd (Raffi Musiker), and Orla Brady (Laris) are the[...]

With a new episode of Paramount+'s Sir Patrick Stewart-starring Star Trek: Picard set to hit screens this week, we think it's safe to say that there are some questions that need to be answered and conversations had But while the "family matter" between Jean-Luc (Stewart), Jack (Ed Speleers), and Dr Crusher (Gates McFadden) jumps to[...]

To give presumably jaded Star Trek fans another shot at Picard, Paramount+ released the season three premiere, "The Next Generation," available for free on YouTube When the episode starts, we find Dr Beverly Crusher (Gates McFadden), the former chief medical officer of the U.S.S Enterprise-D and out of Starfleet, trying to fend off an attempted[...]

It's hard to believe that actors who get cast in a Star Trek series weren't fans, given its nearly 60-year history But once they're in the family, they come away embracing its legacy Among them is Ed Speleers, who plays Jack Crusher If that name sounds familiar, it has deep origins within the franchise's first[...]
