Picard

Anyone else watching this on Amazon - getting really into it- love it when the Borg get involved.
I was always a Treky rather than Star Wars- even Battle Star Galactic before Star Wars 😎

Picard on Amazon, Discovery on E4, and reruns of Voyager on the Horror Channel. 66 years old, still a fan. ;) I'm loving some of the "Easter eggs" in Picard.

Calling his dog "Number One" made me laugh out loud, and I liked "tea, Earl Gray, hot" becoming "tea, Earl Gray, decaf." He still says "Engage" of course, but it was clever, leaving it as the last word spoken in episode 3. That made me smile.

Then there have been several mentions of the "Utopia Planitia shipyards." Apart from the fact that USS Voyager, the USS Defiant and the USS Enterprise 1701-D. were all built there, when Benjamin Sisko is interviewed (by Picard) for the DS9 job Picard mentions that Sisko's last posting was at the Utopia Planitia shipyards.

There are loads more which fans far geekier than I are happily reporting all over the internet.
