As fun as Star Trek: Picard Season 1 and Season 2 were, Season 3 is an exceptional return to the world of The Next Generation, and a fitting send-off for a corner of the franchise that has held an important place in the hearts of audiences for well over 35 years.

Only Season 4 of “Discovery” and the initial season of “Strange New Worlds” have come close to what “Picard” Season 3 manages. In a landscaped glutted with content, where nothing seems to break through, this is an actual “event.” A well-crafted one at that. And, barring some catastrophic downturn in the final episodes, quite a legacy.

Come for the nostalgia, stay for the nerve-wracking suspense. ... Don't even think of missing this ride. [27 Feb - 12 Mar 2023, p.4]

That Season 2 maintains and deepens the characters of Season One but deploys them in a sprightly and intriguing story is a triumph.

Picard‘s final season brings back Next Generation favorites and introduces new wrinkles in what is easily the best season yet.

Stewart’s just lovely in this. He has spent his post-"Next Generation" and post-"X-Men" career staking out various corners of the indie and studio film world, to mixed success. Picard suits him wonderfully, still. Just as the first round of “Star Trek” movies, the ones with William Shatner and the gang, made hay on the old idea of old dogs learning new tricks, “Picard” too has some of that in its synthetic DNA. And it works, because the actors are the right actors, and it’s treated seriously but without a crushing sense of solemnity.

On the basis of the three episodes out for review, it promises to be a satisfying voyage.

This is a show that is more complicated and mature than what came before, but in the best ways, ways which do not discredit the past, but show it’s always possible to change and grow — whether you’re a 79-year-old man, or a 54-year-old franchise.

If there’s any character in the Trek universe that can carry a season-long story arc, it’s Jean-Luc Picard.

This season of “Picard” doesn’t feel like fan fiction; it feels legit.
