Tele 5 , Das deutsche „Home of Sci-Fi“ zeigt die zehn Episoden der 2. Staffel von „Star Trek: Picard“ ab dem 26. Februar immer montags um 20.15 Uhr als Doppelfolge in deutscher Free-TV-Premiere und bietet den Fans damit die Chance auf ein Wiedersehen mit alten Bekannten.

Sir Patrick Stewart schlüpft dabei erneut in die Rolle des Jean-Luc Picard. Der charismatische ehemalige Captain der U.S.S. Enterprise erlebt auch nach dem Ausscheiden aus der Sternenflotte fortwährend Abenteuer auf den verschiedensten Planeten des Sonnensystems. In Staffel zwei trifft Picard mit dem allmächtigen Q (gespielt von John de Lancie) und der mysteriösen Barkeeperin Guinan (gespielt von Whoopi Goldberg) gleich auf zwei Figuren, die die Fans schon aus „Raumschiff Enterprise – Das nächste Jahrhundert“ gut kennen.

Q und Guinan in Staffel 2 von „Star Trek: Picard“ wieder dabei

Die zweite Staffel von „Star Trek: Picard“ führt den legendären Jean-Luc Picard und seine Crew auf eine abenteuerliche und aufregende neue Reise: in die Vergangenheit. Picard muss sich mit alten und neuen Freunden den Gefahren seines Heimatplaneten im 21. Jahrhundert stellen, um in einem erbitterten Wettlauf gegen die Zeit die Zukunft des Universums zu retten – und sich dabei der ultimativen Prüfung durch einen seiner größten Widersacher stellen.

„Star Trek: Picard“ zeigt Patrick Stewart erneut in seiner unverwechselbaren Rolle als Jean-Luc Picard, die er sieben Staffeln lang in „Raumschiff Enterprise – Das nächste Jahrhundert“ spielte, und folgt dieser legendären Figur in das nächste Kapitel seines Lebens. Die Serie wird von CBS Studios in Zusammenarbeit mit Secret Hideout und Roddenberry Entertainment produziert und von Paramount Global Content Distribution vertrieben. Für die zweite Staffel fungieren Alex Kurtzman, Akiva Goldsman, Terry Matalas, Patrick Stewart, Heather Kadin, Aaron Baiers, Rod Roddenberry, Trevor Roth, Doug Aarniokoski und Dylan Massin als ausführende Produzenten. Akiva Goldsman und Terry Matalas fungieren als Co-Showrunner für die zweite Staffel. Auch eine dritte finale Staffel ist bereits gelaufen, jedoch noch nicht im Free-TV.

Tele 5 zeigt alle zehn Episoden der zweiten Staffel von „Star Trek: Picard“ ab dem 26. Februar immer montags um 20.15 Uhr in Doppelfolgen als deutsche Free-TV-Premiere. Im Anschluss stehen die Episoden 14 Tage lang auf tele5.de auf Abruf zur Verfügung.

Review: ‘Picard’ Is, Finally, ‘Star Trek: Peak TV’

The seventh live-action “Star Trek” series offers some fan service for franchise nostalgists, but Patrick Stewart is just about the only thing that hasn’t changed.

• Share full article

By Mike Hale

“Star Trek: Picard” opens with Jean-Luc Picard, former captain of the Starship Enterprise, having a nightmare, and doesn’t that sound right. Through seven seasons of “Star Trek: The Next Generation” and four movies, Starfleet’s most stalwart officer seemed always to be tripping out at key moments: pinging between time streams or dreaming alternate lives; forced into hallucinations by the Ferengi or assimilated by the Borg.

It was a storytelling device that reflected the endearing, if slightly contrived, makeup of the “Star Trek” franchise’s most popular character. Picard always did the right thing, but his moral certainty, bordering on self-righteousness, was balanced by doubt and guilt that could become temporarily crippling when it served the writers’ purposes.

And in “Star Trek: Picard,” which begins its 10-episode premiere season Thursday on CBS All Access, there’s a full complement of doubt, guilt and feelings of uselessness. Picard may be enjoying retirement on his family’s lovely French vineyard, but he’s not content. In the time since his last appearance (in the film “Star Trek: Nemesis” in 2002), calamities have transpired, involving an exploding star and a compromised rescue mission, that have tarnished his reputation. This cannot stand, of course, and before long — or at least by the end of Episode 3, the last one given to critics — he’s found a ship, put together a ragtag crew and set out on a mission of redemption.

The arrival of a new “Star Trek” series (the seventh), especially one whose roots go back to the 1980s, is an obvious occasion for nostalgia and Easter egg-hunting, and “Picard” does not disappoint. The dream scene brings Picard (Patrick Stewart) together with Data (Brent Spiner), the loyal android who sacrificed himself at the end of “Nemesis.” Poker, Earl Grey tea and “Blue Skies” are offered up as tokens for the faithful.

But what’s more noticeable are the differences. “Picard,” the second streaming “Star Trek” series (after “Discovery”), is a peak-TV experience, and it immediately feels — on the surface, at least — as if it could be the franchise’s best small-screen offering.

“Next Generation” put out mostly 26-episode seasons from 1987 to 1994, back in the day when ambient mediocrity went along with bulk production and modest budgets, and a show could succeed handsomely on the basis of Stewart’s Shakespearean assurance, Spiner’s winsome mugging and the enduring appeal of Gene Roddenberry’s 1960s utopianism. (Also, really tight uniforms.)

The new show, created by a committee that includes the executive producer Alex Kurtzman and the novelist and screenwriter Michael Chabon, is a modern animal, beginning with its short season and, most likely, bigger episode budgets. It’s a single serialized story, partly in the ubiquitous form of the procedural mystery, with a former Romulan agent (Orla Brady) putting all that futuristic technology to use in helping Picard investigate ominous events.

It also nods to our current politics, incorporating a refugee crisis, terrorism and threats from a superpower fallen on hard times. Picard, thundering that Starfleet and the Federation have abandoned their humanitarian responsibilities, could be positioning himself for the Democratic primaries. (On the other hand, “Picard,” with its focus on Romulans and androids, has a distinct lack of non-humanoid faces in its early episodes.)

And along with this comes the style you’d expect: polished and restrained writing without the flat-footed corniness that marked “Next Generation”; credible, if routine, action scenes without the hilarious stiffness of decades of phaser battles. No dry-dock scenes of giant starships set to stirring theme music. (Yet.) Stewart is as charming and naturally charismatic as ever, but the general level of the performances around him is significantly higher, and appealing actors like David Paymer, Jamie McShane, Michelle Hurd and Ann Magnuson pop up in roles large and small.

All of which is to the good. And you’d think it would also be good that the plotting of the story, involving the sudden appearance of a young woman with abnormal powers (Isa Briones) who catalyzes Picard’s curiosity and discontent, is complicated and elliptical. But that’s where some reservations set in, especially if you’re not familiar with “Next Generation” and the Picard films. Multiple and confusing threads are introduced in the it’ll-all-make-sense-later manner; the first three episodes are all setup, and your patience may flag. It’s possible that the season will tell a story in 10 episodes that the original series would have dispatched in one or two, with jokes. (“Picard” has already been renewed for a second season.)

That setup brings Picard to the edge of space (in a scenario reminiscent of “Star Wars,” with Santiago Cabrera in the Han Solo-Poe Dameron rogue pilot role). True fans will stick it out to see Stewart point his finger and utter the magic word, no matter how long this new model makes them wait.

• “Are we still pretending?”
• Voyager gets a name drop, though we have no idea what happened to the rest of her crew.
• It turns out that since Seven was assimilated at a young age, she is still full of Borg implants, unlike someone like Picard who could be de-Borgified much easier apparently.
• Some fans were complaining last week that Seven should be going by her human name of Annika now, but it seems clear that she gave up that name after Icheb’s death and other troubling experiences as part of the Fenris Rangers.
• Easter eggs abound on Freecloud, including signs for Mr. Mot and Quark’s!
• What’s the Conclave of Eight that Raffi is on about?
• Why was Agnes so nervous? She’s a cyberneticist but doesn’t know how to use a transporter? Or is it the return of Maddox that actually had her worried?
• This season has now given us Picard speaking French and Picard playing a French stereotype. Oui oui !

Star Trek: Picard benefits greatly from the arrival of Jeri Ryan and Seven of Nine this week, offering some terrific interplay between Ryan and Patrick Stewart. The gambling planet Freecloud provides the perfect backdrop for an amusing heist-style change of pace for the Picard Squad, and the bigger storyline also seemed to make some progress after weeks of a slow crawl -- even while skipping the Soji/Narek/Artifact stuff felt like a relief.

'Picard’ Season 3 Showrunner Terry Matalas Breaks Down Episode 5, That Worf Scene, and 'The Next Generation' Connection

He also spoke about Jack Crusher's nightmare that became a reality.

The fifth episode of Star Trek: Picard 's third and final season delivers a healthy dose of thrills, both aboard the U.S.S. Titan with the increasing stakes that Jean-Luc Picard ( Patrick Stewart ) is encountering with the Changeling plot and with Raffi ( Michelle Hurd ) and Worf ( Michael Dorn ) as they try to unravel the very same plot in District Six.

Ahead of the premiere of Episode 5 , Collider had the opportunity to chat with Picard 's showrunner Terry Matalas about "Imposters," that jarring nightmare Jack Crusher ( Ed Speleers ) faced, the return of Ro Laren ( Michelle Forbes ), Krinn, the gangster Vulcan, Worf's shocking fake-out death, and what Easter eggs Star Trek fans should look for when they rewatch the episode.

COLLIDER: Episode 5 starts with this absolutely killer cold open, with the nightmare that Jack is having. Were there ever any other variations for how this nightmare would play out?

TERRY MATALAS: No, it was always the bridge. I mean, what's a more dramatic place for that to happen and more unexpected kind of Manchurian Candidate feeling of a massacre? Yeah, I'm trying to think, but I think that it was always there.

I was so excited to talk to Ed about getting to wear a Starfleet uniform because, as a Trekkie, that's my own dream. So I was very eager to talk to him about it. Was there a lot of joy in getting to put Picard's son into a Starfleet uniform?

MATALAS: Yeah. I mean, the second you get anybody like that on the show, you're like, "What are they going to look like?" And you're doing it in a really unexpected way here. The first time you see him is ominous, the phaser pointed at people that you've come to love. Then the next time, he's actually given the uniform by Seven of Nine, now there's a sense of dread that, “Is this going to be a prophecy for him?” So it's sort of taking away the audience's wish fulfillment and expectation of it in a weird way.

I love the moment at the top of the episode after they're told Starfleet's coming, and you have this sweet little moment between Picard and Jack and Beverly. And I love that at this point, Picard would even think to be like, "Oh, you should join Starfleet, maybe when all of this dust has settled," because it's so funny because Jack has not shown any hints of caring about Starfleet. But I wondered, is this Picard's subtle way of extending that, "I want you to be part of my family," because we got that moment in the previous episode where Picard basically says, "Starfleet is my family"? Is that what's happening?

MATALAS: I think it's exactly that. I think that's Picard's love language. I think it's also trying to get the kid an honest vocation. It's trying to, "Maybe I can use my leverage within this organization to get this kid out of some of the hot water and off some of the wanted lists that he's on, and get him in the family business."

I was also really surprised and really excited to see Ro Laren brought back into the show. She's such a fun character from The Next Generation . I can't really think of any other characters for Picard that would have this same sort of emotional weight. But I am curious to know, were there other characters that went up on the whiteboard in the writer's room when you were trying to decide who this character would be?

MATALAS: No, this story was always Ro Laren. This story was always– the pitch that I had for it was, "How great would it be to do a paranoia thriller with someone that you have all this baggage with?" The only way to be sure you're sitting across from the person that you hope you're sitting across from is to get through your trauma with them. I thought that if we could pull that off, we'd have a really interesting episode of television. But that required us getting Michelle Forbes and convincing the studio and the network it was the right idea, and educating a lot of people on who Ro Laren is. But no, there was never anyone else other than that. It was Ro Laren or bust.

You also have this really great connection with her history and the spy aspect and what's going on with Worf, and it just fits together so naturally.

MATALAS: Exactly. It had to be her.

There was a moment, speaking of Worf there and that whole thing, there was a moment in this episode when I was watching these screeners that I was getting ready to send you a message on Twitter and be like, "I can't believe you did that." I'm curious, what goes into a fake-out death that lands emotionally, but doesn't drag it out or overplay it? Because this is done so well, and I appreciate that I didn't have to wait for the next episode. We got that culmination within two scenes, I think.

MATALAS: Well, I don't know that it really worked. Do you think it works?

I did. I love Worf. I love Michael Dorn. I was so excited that he was coming back to this series, and so when that moment happened—

MATALAS: You didn't really think we were offing him in that moment, did you?

You never know. I fully was convinced.

MATALAS: Oh, that would've been terrible.

I know. I honestly was like, "Well, there goes a whole letter grade."

MATALAS: I didn't really think we would be fooling the audience with it. Part of me felt like the audience is very likely in on the shenanigans of Raffi and Worf. If they're not, then you can only make them feel so bad for so long because they would probably be really hating you for such an anti-climactic death of such an amazing legacy actor. That's why I can't imagine that anybody really bought it, but we'll see.

I was fully convinced.

MATALAS: Wow.

It played out very well because you have them have this first ploy that doesn't work, and then they're captured.

MATALAS: Yeah, but that would mean that you had a Star Trek: The Next Generation reunion without Worf ever seeing anybody. Well, look Star Wars did it.

I was afraid.

MATALAS: I'm glad that worked. I just never thought in a million years anyone would play.

I'm here to tell you I did. I thought maybe this was one of those things where the show was the stakes are really high this time. This is how high they are. And I was like, "Wow." I mean, respect.

MATALAS: It could be, right? So, it was like, "We've got to get to it real quick," and establishing his meditation and his heart slowed. He had done it twice. So hopefully we had nodded to it a few times enough for him to come back. For me, it feels like you're just waiting for him to show up and do his thing.

I also loved that you had a Vulcan playing this gangster character. It's very fun. It's very Star Trek to me, especially the way the whole scene plays out with him being like, "Yes, that would be the correct thing to do. That is the logical path for me to take." Were there ever any species that you thought for him to be? Because you could even see a quarrelsome Romulan because they're always getting into trouble somewhere in the galaxy.

MATALAS: No, Romulan felt obvious. Vulcan to me, felt really interesting to me that there was a logic to crime, which he says, that there can be no paradise without crime. So once we had found that, that character came together. And once we thought about it as Kirk Acevedo, who I had worked with before, once we wrote it for Kirk, there was a danger to him that he could let some anger through. There was something really interesting about a Vulcan crime syndicate. Once we said that out loud in the room, I was like, "I haven't seen that before."

As soon as I saw that, I was like, I can picture a lot of people updating their characters for the Star Trek RPG games and being like, "I am now a Vulcan gangster.”

MATALAS: They’re saying “I want to be part of The Velashi crime syndicate.” It was a cool idea. So it seemed like a fun idea. And it's the last time we're going to be in District Six, so we wanted to go out with a really interesting criminal.

It's a fun world to be part of. I think the revelation that Starfleet is compromised all the way up the top of the chain. It's kind of, not jaw-dropping because it's been building to it, but it is a shock. We've seen Starfleet face these kinds of issues and situations before. Where do you think this ranks in the scheme of things, throughout the history of Star Trek and Starfleet?

MATALAS: I would definitely put it up there with one of their biggest problems that they've ever faced, if not their biggest, where this ends up going. They have a real problem right now that they don't even know that they’re looking at, and it's up to our heroes to deal with it.

Riker has always been very understanding of the situation of Ro and Picard. I went back and re-watched the episodes for The Next Generation . He's always seemed very perceptive of that situation. So it was nice to have that tie-in with that final conversation with Riker and Picard at the end of the episode. What is really going through his head as he is watching all of this play out? Because you also have the Beverly of it all that's happening, the Ro of it all. He's watching his oldest friend go through so many things all at once, way out on the edges of Federation space.

MATALAS: Oh, it was interesting. Frakes and I always had this conversation early on in the season, that this was the story of Riker becoming, transitioning from little brother to older brother, really, this season. He really does. He really is there as the shoulder for Jean Luc for so much of this heartbreak this season, particularly in that last scene when he comes in, he is like, "I know what she meant to you." He sees Picard go through so much, and not to mention the son. As you'll see as the season continues, I mean, Picard will recognize the importance of this relationship by the end.

Are there any Easter eggs that people should keep their eyes out for when they go back and re-watch this episode?

MATALAS: When Ro's two Starfleet officers walk into the observation room looking for Ro and Picard, there's a little changeling guttural thing they do. If you're listening carefully, they do a little thing.

Do you have any favorite moments from this episode?

MATALAS: I think the scene with Ro and Picard with phasers on each other in the bar is one of the great moments of the season. When they don't know– when they really have to force themselves into this catharsis, it is fantastic. I think both Michelle and Patrick are just on fire. I think it's a spectacular scene. I'm really, really proud of how that came out. I think Cindy Appel, who wrote that, did just phenomenal writing in that, and that's difficult to write. So I'm very, very, very proud of how that story came out. I'm also proud of Ed's performance at the end. I love the tenderness between him and Gates at the end when she is being a mother, and then she finally asks, she's like, "How did you know they were changelings?" And he turns, he says, "I didn't." Their performances, both of them, are phenomenal.

The tear down the cheek helps as well. He's so good.

MATALAS: He's so good. I love Shaw, and then the boys in the Turbo lift, when he starts rattling off all the things they've done that might piss off Starfleet is the Shaw moment of the week for me. There are so many things. I love the earring moment when that blows up and turns into the wall of crazy.

What can you tease for Episode 6?

MATALAS: Well, they're on their own now, and they're going to need help, and it's time to get the rest of the band together.

Star Trek: Picard 's third and final season is streaming now on Paramount+.

'Star Trek: Picard' season 2 episode 5 teases a potentially magnificent match-up

This remains a quality episode, promising an enticing confrontation, but concurrently threatening an overdose of cameos.

Warning: Spoilers ahead for "Star Trek: Picard" season 2, episode 5

Despite Paramount pouring many millions into "Star Trek," it seems " Halo " has been the recent draw as the new sci-fi show's premiere broke the streaming channel's records this week on Paramount Plus . And while recent episodes of "Picard" have been some of the best "Star Trek" we've seen since the first season of "Discovery" back in September 2017, there are early indications that Season 2 of Jean-Luc's ongoing adventures is beginning to slip. But more on that later.

The tribute to "Star Trek: The Voyage Home" was evidently limited to just one episode and we've moved on, way past that now, with episode 5, entitled "Fly Me To The Moon." That said, there are still a lot of exciting plot threads to continue with and we pick up more or less straightaway from last week's episode with Picard (Patrick Stewart) talking to Laris Tallinn (Orla Brady). He concludes that she's a sort of "Supervisor," similar in principal to a one-time character called Gary Seven who appeared in an episode of "The Original Series" entitled "Assignment: Earth" (S02, E26), which was actually an attempt to jump-start a potential spin-off series.

According to Memory Alpha , Gary Seven (played by Robert Lansing) was a human-looking male whose ancestors were abducted from Earth around 4000BC and taken to another planet. He was a Class 1 "Supervisor" sent to Earth in 1968 to discover why his superiors lost contact with Agent 201 and Agent 347. When he discovered they were killed in an car accident, he assumed their mission. Using advanced alien technology, he continued their mission to make sure mankind did not destroy itself with nuclear weapons.

There were subtle indications that this connection was coming and even if you missed those, lest we forget how "Discovery" tapped into "The Original Series" back in the Season 3 two-part episode " Terra Firma " with the Guardian of Forever. And while there's nothing wrong with this, it would be nice to see these throwbacks developed further, rather than appearing to be casually-regarded, short-lived references used when new ideas seem to be thin on the ground. Perhaps we'll learn more about the backstory of Laris Tallinn later, but given the rapid turnaround of guest-star characters in this show so far, it feels unlikely. And we'll come to that too, a little later.

We see the same young girl that Q (John de Lancie) was obsessing over during his lunch break last week only now she's in a kind of spacecraft cockpit simulator and not doing a very good job with an orbital debris evasion practice run. A French flag patch can be seen on her arm before a head and shoulders close reveals her name badge, Renée Picard (played by Penelope Mitchell).

Picard provides some helpful exposition, "The Europa Mission was a pioneering space flight in my history," so you'd think he'd remember that a Picard was on it. In "Star Trek: Generations," he says to Deanna Troi, "From being a small child, I can remember being told about the family line. The Picard who fought at Trafalgar. The Picard who won the Nobel Prize for Chemistry. The Picards who settled the first Martian colonies…" Confirming the family's importance through history, but he'd surely remember this. (Then again, it didn't even occur to him that an "alien living in Los Angeles in the 21st century" might be Guinan.)

Turns out she's supposed to be on the prime crew for Expedition Europa, which was an early interplanetary mission to the Jovian moon of Europa. We've even seen big billboard posters promoting — for some reason — this mission when Seven of Nine (Jeri Ryan) and Raffi Musiker (Michelle Hurd) were causing havoc in downtown Los Angeles. 

All that's known about Renée is that she "discovered a microorganism on Io that she believed was sentient and convinced the mission commander to bring it back to Earth." Given all the twisty-turny timey-wimey nonsense that's been going on of late, especially with whether or not Guinan would've known Picard, it's probably best to just not think about it too much, a bit like how the writers haven't.

Following the opening credits we're back on the crashed La Sirena and the Borg Queen (Annie Wersching) is up to some clever mischief. Tapping into the nearby cellphone towers, she calls the local constabulary and reports, "There are screams coming from the Picard vineyard!" This has the desired effect and a poor policier from little La Barre comes to pay a visit. Raffi and Seven meanwhile have managed to rescue Cristóbal Rios (Santiago Cabrera). So, you know, phew .

Upon watching some video footage of a therapy session with young Renée that Laris Tallinn has managed to get hold of, they can see that Q, who's gone full Freud, is the one who is surreptitiously trying to talk the young astronaut out of going on the mission, which suggests a whole new level of intervention from Picard's omnipotent adversary. In the past, Q's been satisfied with purely observing the various outcomes in his experiments in alternative history, but this is active interference. And then we get the biggest surprise of this episode, a Soong (Brent Spiner) and Soji character cameo.

This is a brand new incarnation of Dr. Soong, bookending his appearance in the first season of "Picard" as that was the oldest Soong we've seen, in the 24th century and now this one, in the 21st century marks the earliest. And since it's the modus operandi of this show to incorporate as many of the much-loved former cast members of "The Next Generation," it feels apt. The problem is, as we've mentioned, so far, it's been a rather rapid in the turnaround of potentially interesting reinvented characters. 

And that's a shame, because as we see, Q versus Dr. Soong — with two exceptional, heavyweight classically trained actors playing the roles — could arguably be the greatest single match up in "Star Trek" since…well, Captain Kirk took on Trelane in "The Original Series" episode "The Squire of Gothos" (S01, E18). Who knows, maybe he'll turn up next week.

This episode isn't directed by Lea Thompson — although she makes a brief appearance as the chairman of the board that revokes Dr. Soong's license for breaking the Shenzhen Convention and running genetic experiments on soldiers with a privatized military organization, Spearhead Operations. This episode is once again in the hands of Jonathan Frakes and evidence of that will become obvious later in the episode.

Soong is struggling to find a cure for his daughter Kore's (Isa Briones) rare and unusual condition and Q introduces himself by way a cryptic business card, which incidentally has a number on it that you can actually call to hear a prerecorded message from the irksome entity. He gives Soong a test sample, which works, for a short period. But now Q has his claws well and truly sunk into the dodgy doctor so he'll naturally do anything for the promise of a permanent sure.

Meanwhile, on La Sirena, the poor policeman has totally failed to detect either Dr. Jurati (Alison Pill) fast asleep on the sofa, or the smell of the fire that they lit earlier. He's instead drawn to the voice of the Borg Queen who's imitating the sound of someone in distress. Jurati finally wakes up, grabs an antique shotgun and goes back into the crashed ship herself to see what's going on. She finds the Queen holding the policeman hostage and give her both barrels. Go Agnes.

Not long after, everyone regroups at the ship and Jurati explains what happens. Out intrepid time travelling team hatch a plan to crash a fancy gala where young Renée will be in attendance. This new plot thread has distinct a " Stardust City Rag " vibe from last season along with an element of "Mission: Impossible," as even the accompanying music helps set the tone in a trademark Frakes set piece. Jurati cleverly, deliberately lets herself get caught by security guards so that she's held in the security surveillance room, where through the power of flashback, we see how the Borg Queen was able to get two assimilation tubules into her neck before she "died" from her shotgun wounds.

Roll closing credits on what is an interesting episode that gets better the more you watch it. The worry is where it goes from here. Guinan was undoubtedly underused and let's hope that next week's story isn't just a format to introduce yet more cameo characters for just the space of one episode. The Brent Spiner versus John de Lancie match up is worth half the season alone and it's great to have yet another ancestor of the legendary father of eugenics appear in "Star Trek."

Rating: 7½/10

When Scott's application to the NASA astronaut training program was turned down, he was naturally upset...as any 6-year-old boy would be. He chose instead to write as much as he possibly could about science, technology and space exploration. He graduated from The University of Coventry and received his training on Fleet Street in London. He still hopes to be the first journalist in space.
