The season is pretty good. Not perfect (too dark, still don’t like all the cursing, so much time on M’Talas Prime) but holy shit does it feel like they’re actually doing something with these characters and the plot is pretty compelling.

Also need to commend them for giving Crusher more to do than she ever got in 6 seasons of the show and 4 movies.

Especially with Raffi, who just might be the worst spy in the entire galaxy.

Seriously, though, it really has been a significant improvement on season 1 (and miles better than the total dumpster fire that was season 2, but that's hardly a high bar). There have still been some odd bits (like that whole conflict between Picard and Riker on the bridge of the Titan; Picard's insistence on fighting a more powerful and better-armed opponent instead of escaping, even long before it became clear that escape would be all but impossible, was so weirdly out of character than I genuinely thought he must have been replaced by the Changeling for a while there), but for the most part it's been an interesting and coherent storyline and some good character moments.

Did Terry Matalas name the place after himself? Lol. I will say I think he’s doing a much better job and actually understands TNG
