Maybe Picard will visit all the places he visited in TNG and apologize for being a white human male, only to be told to shut up by the black female lead now and then.
There's no way this show is gonna be good. The place it grew out it just isn't. It's like burying apple seeds in a desert area directly into the sand and being surprised you don't get delicious and juicy red apples as a result. There's just no framework. Maybe we shouldn't have taken the rampant rape (statutory and otherwise) and coke out of the entertainment biz. Maybe they needed that to come up with good stories.
Also the Actors are in it for the money, and if not for the money then for the vanity. Actors are an incredibly vain lot. I always liked Patrick Stewart because he's a charismatic guy and pleasant to listen to but if you ever heard him talk any stretch of time and are entirely honest to yourself you'll notice that he's pretty full of himself. I mean yeah, he played a pop culture icon in one of the best decades of western pop culture but in the end of it all, all he ever was is an actor. Same for Brent Spiner which I 100% remember saying (when he was a lot younger too) that he's getting too old to play an "ageless" android and that it's time to put that role to rest. So much for that I guess. Also such known actors tend to be surrounded by yes-men and bootlickers. They might not even be aware how bad the show is. If somebody follows you around all day and declares your every fart a "craft masterpiece" that tends to happen. Happened to George Lucas too. If you research good old TV shows you'll often find that most of them had quite a lot of conflict behind the scenes which helped the shows to grow. This is true for TNG too. I could imagine that's also lacking in a vanity project like this.
Also Stewart looks decrepit in some of the scenes and like he's confused to be there. You always have to imagine these are the good scenes, they don't show the cut ones. The less is said about how Spiner looks, the better. (and he would've been so easy to replace while keeping the character, too! They could've even changed his gender in their woke campaign and it would've been all easily explainable) A show that makes such choices and tries to run off nostalgia fumes is never going to be good.
