141. The Ninth Episode Curse (Star Trek: Picard season 3 - part 2)

Anika and Liz put on their most stylish Starfleet tactical vests and walk right into a trap. And along the way, we finish our discussion of season 3 of Star Trek: Picard, including... We are not impressed by Captain Shaw The Jack and Seven relationship is a HIGHLIGHT Worf treats Raffi better than literally anyone else in the whole of Star Trek: Picard, which is … bad. Like, it's great! But it's bad Liz hijacks the podcast to talk about Succession, and how Terry Matalas is like Logan Roy "Vox" is better than previous penultimate episodes of the seasons, but still not great! Everyone is suddenly an idiot!  Order 66, Star Trek style Romance is … not this series' strong suit We spend a good few minutes working out how an unexpected pregnancy in middle-age can happen in a 24th century "utopia", which is probably more time than the writers put in It's really hard to root for Seven/Raffi when they don't seem to actually like each other Stepford Laris Liz has a whole rant about autistic representation in Picard; Anika responds with nuance In conclusion, this is our pitch to showrun Star Trek: Legacy
