In the UK we have to wait, apparently Paramount + becomes available in the UK in Summer.
Its likely season 3 won't reference any of this twaddle, as much as I want to see the Next Gen crew back I fear the worse.
Will have a look cheers, I have a VPN on my TV so here is hoping it works.
It’s when they try to do serialized storytelling that we see things not adding up. PICARD and DISCO should have taken the DS9 route where episodes are still episodic but there’s still progression in the storyline. I’d even say the third season of ENTERPRISE did it just as good, if not better.
In SNW it was very evident the cast were having fun, Khan's ancester adds a lot to any given situation, La'an is like a grenade ready to go off at any given moment I like that and her back story is harrowing to say the least.
Even in STD there have been a few really good episodes though consistency is a major issue in the writing. Picard S2 apparently was a vanity project of Patrick Stewart, over all it really was very poor. Now we have SNW we don't need Picard anymore IMO, though I will watch the final season hoping for some semblance of quality and it will be great to see Next Gen cast one last time.
Given how S2 tied up things, that at least gives S3 more room to move in any direction and there’s been a writers shuffle between seasons due to SNW being in development. That’s probably why S3 is gonna play more as a TNG reunion. I previous seasons the writers were adamant that they weren’t just gonna do TNG 2.0. Now with different writers that’s obviously changed.
12: TAS
11: VOY
10: PIC
9: LD
8: PROD
7: ENT
6: TOS
5: SNW (incredibly early ranking; if the rest of this show is as good as these first two episodes it's going all the way to second place)
4: DISCO
3: TNG
2: Star Trek Continues (it counts IMO)
1: DS9
I just feel really lucky to have as much Star Trek concurrently as existed in total pre-2017. Just six or seven years ago I was convinced I would never have new Star Trek on TV again.
Why doesn t Riker just say it? Why this elaborate aggressive build-up?
I have to say 35 years on they all look well.
A few look even better.
Star Trek The Motion Picture in 4K does not appear to be available yet.
I will be able to watch STD season 4 now also, still not watched it.
After quickly browsing there is some good content on here.
I watched STD seasons 1 - 3 amongst an uneven show there have been the odd good episode. Even when Trek is bad I will still watch it, its better than no Trek at all.
Hopefully SNW will deliver. I have Trek shows of old on Bluray and DVD, now having them all on a streaming service it's a good reason to rewatch them.
I have not watched DS9 for years though I have been holding out for a restoration. I will definitely rewatch Enterprise.
I think if DISCO adopted the episodic structure of SNW, that would help give the characters more opportunities to shine.

This is very dissapointing.

Kate Mulgrew at the UK launch yesterday...
When it originally started as CBS All Access, the best video/audio quality it offered was 720p 2.0 surround. Wasn’t until S2 of Disco that they finally added HDR and 5.1 capability. I think Dolby Atmos was only implemented this year.
There’s still a lot of things they could improve on. Their search engine needs a serious upgrade. All you can search for is movie titles at the moment, no option of searching for movies featuring an actor.
I should not complain too much based on the US launch and to be fair the cost is £6.99 a month which is a good price. Hopefully we will get another tier option soon so I can watch ST:TMP.
I read SNW and STD are shown in 4K in the US.
