The best Star Trek in 10 years!

This show just plots along at the speed of molasses in an ice storm. It's excruciatingly slow and uninteresting. Sat through the first 5 episodes to really give it a chance, but enough is enough. 2/10

Picard is c**p...

It's a long boring drag out...

Then in the last five minutes they drop a cliff hangar...

So I for one am no longer wasting time on this show..

Star Trek is supposed to be a Space Opera...
Not this drawn out bilge..
So from episode 4... I am walking off stage and shaking my head..
It could have been so much more...

I would be fine if the show was just dumb but it is boring too. The plot is full of holes. The characters are shallow or unlikable. There are like 10 plotlines that go nowhere and the conclusion is not worth the wasted time. There are a few fun moments (intentionally and unintentionally) but most of the time you gonna just wait for things to happen.
It's visually stunning and I like seeing the old characters on the screen again but I recommend watching TNG instead. It's much more fun.

This show has a lot of flaws, but the dialogue is especially horrible. My god, whoever approved this script needs to be fired or never let work on a title as big a Star Trek.

Also, that constant flare from every single light source. Whoever thought that's cool, stay away from sci-fi shows.

The trailer wasn't really what I expected it to be. Not better or worse, just very different. It feels homey and I like the entanglement with the old series. It's not going to be "Enterprise: Continued". Probably, like Andrew said, we should already let go of any real Star Trek expectations. Let's just enjoy the amazement of Patrick Steward's acting :). Sir Steward's charisma rises as he ages. And is it me or hasn't Jeri Ryan aged a day?

I tried watching it but, I can't. boring.

I completely disagree with almost everyone else here who think this show is no good. I thought season 1 of Picard was a fantastic series, honestly the best telling of star trek I've seen in a long long time. It wasn't perfect but it definitely wasn't as bad as half of you are making it sound. I keep seeing consistent comments saying "I watched x amount of episodes and that's all I needed to see." Yeah that's the problem, if I only watched 15 minutes of a movie I wouldn't be qualified to give my opinion on it either.

The real problem here is that people aren't satisfied with anything these days unless it's exactly how they remember it, and times have changed. Star Trek was always good about staying relevant and to act like the Federation would stay perfect forever is just naive. Thankfully Star Trek has evolved and changed with the times, even if half of it's viewers are stuck in the 80's and 90's.

This show had a decent first episode, but all the others are so bad. Sorry, I leave it

It's. So. Boring.
4 episodes, yet we don't know where this show wants to go... Not boldly at all.

Next Gen was the Star Trek I grew up with, and I became a young adult watching Voyager. So I'll just say that Picard hit some amazing nostalgia for me and kept me massively entertained through my binge this weekend. I laughed, I cheered (repeatedly!), and I cried. I hope for a season 2 because I'd love to see more of this.
