Some people have warmed to Star Trek: Discovery, but I’ve also heard from die-hard Trek fans that a show like The Orville is more Trek than the actual Trek show available on CBS All Access. I simply don’t have a lot of faith in guys like Alex Kurtzman and Akiva Goldsman to understand what Star Trek is, why it works, or even the basic tenets of good storytelling let alone good Star Trek. This new trailer tells us that Picard is back at his family’s vineyard, but he also left Starfleet for mysterious reasons after leading a rescue armada. Rarely do we have a Star Trek character looking back on his or her life outside of maybe a flash-forward or alternate timeline episode. I certainly like the idea of a Star Trek series returning to one of its central characters and trying to find a way to continue the story. The show will star Patrick Stewart reprising his role as Jean-Luc Picard, which he played for seven seasons on Star Trek: The Next Generation as well as the films Star Trek: Generations, Star Trek: First Contact, Star Trek: Insurrection, and Star Trek: Nemesis. CBS All Access has revealed the first trailer for the upcoming Star Trek series, Star Trek: Picard.
