The 'Star Trek: The Next Generation' crew joins Patrick Stewart for a send-off in the final season of 'Star Trek: Picard'
After a pair of slow-going voyages that sought to blend old and new, “Star Trek: Picard” warps back to its roots in a third and final season filled with familiar “The Next Generation” faces. While building the show around its AARP-eligible cast two decades after the last movie imposes certain limits, getting the band back together feels like a clear case of giving the loyal audience what it wants.
The simplest pleasures come from the interactions between Stewart and Frakes, whose professional camaraderie is enriched here by their connection as longtime pals who, especially in the latter’s case, seldom miss an opportunity to note that they’re getting a little long in the tooth for this sort of perilous swashbuckling. The season doesn’t fare as well with the villain, which takes a while to reveal itself, and there’s a clunky nature to some of the writing.
