    A reason Q might choose to look older, he's a grandfather now, like maybe Q Jr . and that blond Q women whose name I forget have a kid together and Q wants to look the partpart as a grandfather.

    That's your assumption and the way you have just blurted it out like that? i'm not even going to answer that.

    Yes it is and based on your post, it would seem to be correct given that Q made himself appear as an old man by choice - despite your questioning whether he would or not.

    There is no need to question it - he already did.

    Well, he might have seen it but forgotten. I did.

    Not sure where the mountain he's making out of your moile-hill reply comes from, though. ;)

    I don't expect Q to stop being Q. In Picard's waning years, if Q still kicks him around there will be a reason. Perhaps Picard is going to join the Continuum in a few decades and Q is his new-hire mentor. But it seems to me that Q would need a reason to interfere, and since I'm only guessing at the story, I could only guess about Q's role and intent based on my guesses, so guesses based on guesses...

    Encounter At Farpoint was a wakeup call. Being thrown to the Borg was a field test. Later Picard would take the lessons of those events and use them to beat the Borg. Q was in the role of a trainer for a prize fight.

    I can only imagine that Q appearing in Picard would be an indication of a galactic-scale problem headed their way. Maybe... It's Iconians!

    I dunno, Q liked yanking his chain for fun.

    It's confirmed that Frakes is directing for Picard episodes and that he has read some of Lower Decks and it's hilarious according to him.

    We've got a spiritual male Romulan Martial Artist, A Black Woman Pilot/Mercanary Captain who lost her husband, a socially akward young woman who is smart called Indira, a EMH who is designed to be not too self aware (learned from their last couple EMHs I guess, can't have ships equiptment getting uppity), a drunk/junkie former intelligence officer (Women 40 to 50 years old), a guy who specializes in positronic brains (think Data).

    Interesting, because its evidence for the supposed breakdown is merely a reference to the earlier "leak" from That Hashtag Show.

    Get me something from an industry paper like Variety, I'll pay attention.

    leaks are extremely common, especially with popular IPs...i expect that at least SOME of those details are correct, but certainly not all of them, and not in the combination given - plus, the show's still months from release, and people love changing things at the last minute

    that being said...i hope that at least the apparent non-antagonistic romulan part is correct, even if xir doesn't turn out to be spiritualist or a martial artist​​

    We had the Discovery Klingon leak on Twitter with people claiming that the tweet was wrong and those aren't Klingons, but unfortunately the leak was correct. Time will tell if this leak is correct, partially correct, or completely wrong. The creators of the Picard series could replace one or more of the characters for whatever reason before the series premiere.

    And are they all using the same (possibly flawed) source?

    Like I said, get me something from Variety or the Hollywood Reporter, you'll have my attention.

    The twitter image being part of Discovery was never an issue. There was Discovery extras in alien costumes that one side stated was Klingons while the other side stated that they weren't Klingons either as disbelief or misdirection. Considering the backlash that Discovery got for their version of Klingons, I am not surprised by the misdirection when that image was released.

    I'm not sure what you mean. The folks at trekmovie noted the source identified them as Klingons and left it at that. They didn't comment otherwise.

    From comicbook.com:

    Update: The source of the photo now claims that the characters shown in the photo may not be Klingons. He only "thought they kinda looked like" Klingons. The original text of the article follows.

    A photo was taken by an extra on the Star Trek: Discovery set at Pinewood Studios Toronto reveals a group of Klingons behind the scenes. However, they look a bit different than what fans are used to.


    Companies use either use misdirection or keep quiet whenever there are leaks. The source could have only thought they were Klingons, but wasn't certain or they could have been persuaded by CBS to cast doubt on the photo. After all, CBS wasn't ready to release photos of Discovery or have fans debating about how their Klingons look nothing like Klingons until they had their promotional material ready.

    I personally don't see any thing in the description worth objecting too. The addiction issues for the intelligence officer make her more interesting then some Mary Sue types, and the pilot hints at a Tom Paris/Hon Solo type personality, but maybe darker, again interesting.

    Why would anyone be offended by Rey, or Michael Burnham? Yet somehow the pathetic invented an offense just because they are women.

    They also don't understand the term 'Mary Sue'. A Mary Sue a self insert character that takes over a plot, not a character they perceive to be without flaws.​​

    Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though.
    JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.
