Trailer | Star Trek: Picard - Season 2 Coming to Blu-ray, DVD, and Digital

Relive every moment of the action-packed second season.

“Fast-paced and infectiously fun" (GamesRadar+), the Paramount+ original series Star Trek: Picard - Season Two beams onto Blu-ray, DVD and limited-edition Blu-ray Steelbook on October 4 from Paramount+, CBS Home Entertainment and Paramount Home Entertainment. Learn more about the Blu-ray, DVD, and Steelbook offerings here !

Starring four-time Emmy® Award nominee Patrick Stewart ( Hamlet ) as Jean-Luc Picard, an iconic role which he played for seven seasons on Star Trek: The Next Generation , the latest season “kicks things into high gear” (Den of Geek). From executive producers Alex Kurtzman ( Star Trek: Discovery) and Academy Award® winner Akiva Goldsman (Best Writing, Screenplay Based on Material Previously Produced or Published - A Beautiful Mind , 2002), the Season Two collection offers fans all 10 episodes, including over an hour of exclusive, never-before-seen featurettes, deleted scenes and a gag reel.

In addition the October 4 domestic release, Star Trek: Picard Season 2 will release in the following regions:

• United Kingdom — November 14
• Nordics — November 14
• Spain — November 15
• France — November 16
• Italy — November 17
• Germany — November 17
• Benelux — November 18
• Japan — November 18
• Australia — December 7

In addition to streaming on Paramount+ , Star Trek: Picard also streams on Prime Video outside of the U.S. and Canada, and in Canada can be seen on Bell Media's CTV Sci-Fi Channel and streams on Crave. Star Trek: Picard is distributed by Paramount Global Content Distribution.

Across its three-disc collection are all ten episodes of Picard Season 2, a number of deleted scenes, a fun gag reel, and over 90 minutes of behind-the-scenes featurettes which explore various areas of production.

A divisive season of Trek to be sure, with opinions ranging from love to loathing, the season began with a three-episode trip across realities (and across time) as Next Generation foe Q (John de Lancie) tossed Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart), Seven of Nine (Jeri Ryan), and the rest of the cast into a world where the Federation never formed — forcing the  La Sirena gang to head back to modern-day Los Angeles to correct history.

After the major setting change got the season going (a sci-fi turn shepherded by new co-showrunner Terry Matalas), the Earthbound tale then morphed into a psychological examination of Jean-Luc Picard’s family history.

In a twist from incumbent co-showrunner Akiva Goldsman, we learned that in fact Yvette Picard sadly committed suicide after battling mental illness — a repressed memory found at the end Picard’s journey along Q’s path.

Returning Picard, Seven, and Raffi Musiker (Michelle Hurd) to the 25th century thanks to a last-breath finger-snap from Q, Star Trek: Picard said farewell to much of its cast — with Cris Rios (Santiago Cabrera) left behind in 2024, Kore Soong (Isa Briones) joining the Travelers, Agnes Jurati (Alison Pill) forming a new “voluntary” Borg collective, and Elnor (Evan Evagora) returning to his Starfleet Academy training.

As the final season approaches — returning to Paramount+ on February 16 — the show finds itself ready to reinvent itself for next season’s impending Next Generation cast reunion.

The Steelbook edition continues to be our favorite way to bring Star Trek television home, as the metal packaging features the stark black-and-white Season 2 key art (featuring Patrick Stewart haunted by John de Lancie) and the Blu-ray discs are well-protected by the Steelbook’s disc spindles.

The standard Blu-ray and DVD releases sport rather disappointing cover artwork, featuring individual photos of the cast — minus Brent Spiner, for some reason — Photoshopped onto a glowing blue background; the Blu-ray set stacks the three discs across just two spindles inside the plastic casing.

(Not a great way to keep those discs from getting scratched!)

Even with high-bandwidth home internet connections, the video quality of Blu-ray discs are always going to be a nice improvement from the streaming presentation on Paramount+, and Picard Season 2 is no exception.

From the violent space anomaly which kicks off events in “The Star Gazer,” to the race towards Earth’s sun in “Assimilation,” to the dark battle scenes beneath Chateau Picard, the show looks its best here — without any blocking or smearing from streaming compression — and helps make the location filming in sunny Los Angeles look even better, especially compared to the dark future where the Confederation of Earth is in charge.

The score from composer Jeff Russo sounds wonderful on Blu-ray as well, presented in 5.1 DTS-HD audio; unfortunately there are no audio commentary tracks included with any of Season 2’s episodes.

Picard ‘s Season 2 Blu-ray set contains six main behind-the-scenes features, covering everything from the complicated makeup effects used to turn Annie Wersching into the new Borg Queen, to the design of the  Sagan -class  USS Stargazer , to the various props and set decoration seen throughout the year’s adventure.

• Picard Passages (24:58) — The primary overview the year, featuring cast interviews and writer-producer discussions around the Picard backstory, time-travel, Q, and Borg Queen elements which make up Season 2’s storytelling.
• Rebuilding the Borg Queen (11:10) — Lead creature designer Neville Page (along with other artists in the  Picard team) describes the challenge of bringing back the intimidating Borg Queen with the makeup and prosthetic technology now available to  Trek creatives, along with actor Annie Wersching’s experience becoming the cybernetic villain.

• The Chateau (15:23) — Production designer Dave Blass and prop master Jeff Lombardi guide viewers through the design and contents of the Chateau Picard set (a new build for Season 2), used in both the 2401 and 2024 time periods. Neville Page also lays out the design philosophy behind ‘Borgslayer’ Picard’s alien skull collection, in a deep exploration of those artifact.
• The Trial is Over (12:03) — John de Lancie, Patrick Stewart, Alex Kurtzman and Akiva Goldsman discuss Q’s return, and the character’s impact on Jean-Luc Picard in both past and present encounters. There’s also a great look at de Lancie’s final day on set with Patrick Stewart, as the actor recounts how his  Next Generation journey began all the way back during preparation for “Encounter at Farpoint.”

There are four selections of Season 2 deleted scenes as part of this season’s package, totaling just over 9 minutes in length.

• “Assimilation” (203) — An excised moment from Elnor’s death scene; a calm moment between Dr. Ramirez and her son at the clinic before Rios arrives; Seven and Raffi scanning Los Angeles for signs of The Watcher.
• “Fly Me to the Moon” (205) — Q pestering a Los Angeles waitress about her thoughts on life’s purpose; Tallinn (Orla Brady) stunning a group of partygoers so Jurati can steal their identity bracelets; Adam Soong (Brent Spiner) monologues about genetic perfection as the gang crashes the Europa Mission party and Jurati speaks to the Borg Queen (Annie Wersching).
• “Monsters” (207) — Tallinn experiences more of young Picard’s memories while inside his mind; a short moment from Raffi and Seven chasing down ‘Queen Agnes’ in Los Angeles.
• “Farewell” (210) — Seven takes charge while the La Sirena gang considers their place in history, much to Raffi’s delight; Seven reports that she, Raffi, and Rios will not be able to help at the Europa Mission launch facility.

The bonus features are rounded out by a four-minute gag reel, letting the sometimes-all-to-serious characters fall away as the fun  Star Trek: Picard cast get to have a few laughs while trying to film on noisy Los Angeles city streets — or just having trouble remembering the right Trek talk as they work to deliver complicated line readings.

Overall, this is a great deal of behind-the-scenes material for the 10-episode season — though whether you choose to invest in a purchase for your collection is going to need to depend on your thoughts on Season 2 as a whole.

For the completist, it’s a no-brainer; for folks not too hot on the Season 2 story, it’s still something we’d recommend to keep the  Star Trek physical media wheels turning for future releases — though for sure, this season was not everyone’s cup of Earl Grey tea.

Star Trek: Picard — Season 2 is the third in a wave of new  Trek Blu-ray releases this fall, following the Original Series films remastered in 4K, and the 4K-remastered  Star Trek: The Motion Picture — The Director’s Edition which each arrived in September; the first ten episodes of  Star Trek: Prodigy hit Blu-ray in November, followed by Star Trek: Discovery Season 4 on December 6.

Star Trek: Picard is currently in post-production on its third and final season, set to debut in February 2023 on Paramount+ the United States, and on CTV Sci Fi Channel and Crave in Canada. Outside of North America, the series is available on Amazon’s Prime Video service in most international locations.

Review: Binge ‘Star Trek: Picard’ Season 2 On Blu-ray (And Enjoy That Gag Reel)

| October 4, 2022 | By: Matt Wright 44 comments so far

The sophomore season of Star Trek: Picard arrives on home video today in the USA.

Star Trek: Picard – Season 2

Just where Picard (and its titular character Jean-Luc Picard) were going to go next after the conclusion of the first season was of keen interest to fans. The first few episodes of season 2 brought a fresh sense of the world, with a lovingly designed new USS Stargazer (there’s more on that in the special features), some compelling dalliances with the darkest versions of our characters, and an interesting spin on a Borg Queen. Sadly, the season got bogged down in 2024 Los Angeles and a pretty painful exploration of Jean-Luc’s boyhood trauma, which included a frustratingly archaic idea of mental health when it came to the handling of Yvette Picard.

TrekMovie covered the individual episodes as they came out in reviews by our site founder Anthony as well as in weekly episode review episodes of the All Access Star Trek podcast. If you haven’t already checked them out, they’re highly recommended for reviews and analysis of each episode.

The Blu-ray set

The episodes and special features are spread out across three Blu-ray discs. As we’ve come to expect for a CBS home video release, each disc has the names of the episodes it contains printed on them, as well as a full listing for the set on the inside back of the case.

Video Quality

Picard has a slick and modern style that follows the general trends of the live action CBS/Paramount+ Trek universe. Season 2 spends quite a bit of time on Earth in 2024, so in some ways this season is both more down-to-Earth (pun intended) stylistically, but it also spends a lot of time in the murkiness of night—at the Château, around the Europa gala, etc. Having the higher bitrate available on disc means the image quality in these darker scenes is a bit better than streaming.

Audio Quality

As we’ve come to expect, the episodes have losslessly compressed DTS-HD MA 5.1 channel soundtracks. This is pretty standard for a TV show release. Picard sounds great; as noted in my other reviews, the producers and sound mixers are on the top of their game with these latest seasons.

Special Features

Documentary features.

Most of these are 10-20 minute pieces.

The U.S.S. Stargazer – This feature is worth watching if you like ship design: Executive producer Terry Matalas and production designer Dave Blass discuss the design of the new Stargazer inside and out. We also get a time-lapse video of the bridge being built on the sound stage. The team brought in Trek veterans Michael Okuda, Doug Drexler, and John Eaves to help create the latest U.S.S. Stargazer. We get to see clips from their virtual meetings and early ideas for designs. Also keep an eye out for Thomas Marrone of Star Trek Online, who lends a hand doing concept renders.

The Château – Production designer Dave Blass and prop master Jeff Lombardi show us how they rebuilt and expanded on the Château Picard sets in season 2. The original Château sets were converted into the silvery “Dataverse” version at the end of season 1, so those sets were scrapped and the new production design team got to start over for season 2.

Picard Props – Prop Master Jeff Lombardi showcases new props created for Star Trek: Picard season 2, which included making the Starfleet props into their sinister Confederation versions.

The Trial Is Over – An exploration of Q (and John de Lancie) and his connection to Jean-Luc Picard.

Rebuilding The Borg Queen – Designer Neville Page kicks off this feature, discussing how he approached the new spin on the Borg Queen. Actress Annie Wersching discusses stepping into the role of the Borg Queen. And Prosthetics Master Vincent Van Dyke and Make-Up Department Head James MacKinnon discuss the process of making and applying the Borg makeup and embellishments to Wersching.

Picard Passages – This is the typical talking heads chat about the season, the character of Picard, his journey, and so forth.

Deleted Scenes

For many people, these are likely behind the desire to get a TV show on disc. There are four episodes that have deleted or extended scenes, found on the disc with the corresponding episode.

“Assimilation”

Extended bit of scene of Elnor and Raffi as Elnor is dying in La Sirena’s powerless sickbay.

A longer introduction to Dr. Teresa Ramirez and her son Ricardo. Teresa talks about Ricardo’s love of space and how he wants to be an exo-botanist before the injured Rios is brought in.

“Fly Me To The Moon”

Q is disgusted by having to eat, and asks the waitress at the diner where he’s meeting Soong how she handles knowing she has a finite existence. He almost has an engaging conversation, then shoos her away when Soong enters.

A scene where Talinn uses a gadget with a flash of light to “zap” a line-up of guests at the Europa ball, kind of like the Neuralyzer from Men in Black. A few seconds of this was seen in the Picard season 2 Star Trek Day 2021 trailer.

“Monsters” Raffi wonders if Jurati-Borg went to the bar to throw back a few. “Never underestimate a good bender.” (You can see this deleted scene as a TrekMovie exclusive clip at the bottom of this review)

“Farewell” As the characters face the possibility that they’re stuck in 2024, Seven takes command of the mission. Among other heroic things she says are “smoke ’em if you got ’em,” something she picked up from pop culture to fit in.

Gag Reel – Found on the third disc. It’s always a good time to see these consummate professional actors break character. We learn that filming in downtown Los Angeles isn’t all it’s cracked up to be—poor Jeri Ryan and Michelle Hurd have every kind of vehicle imaginable come flying by them while trying to film on the street (motorcycles, cement mixers, helicopters, oh my!). And of course being back on the sets of a Starfleet ship made for some déjà vu for Sir Patrick Stewart; we get to see him slip back into his old “walk and talk down the corridor” routine, which leads to him mistakenly calling the Stargazer the Enterprise.

Sir Patrick laughs at his mistake of saying “Enterprise” instead of “Stargazer.”

Final thoughts

Despite the drooping middle of the season, for many people this Blu-ray can be worth watching; it’s the highest quality way to watch Picard. It’s recommended for completists or anyone who wants an offline copy of the show; this includes those who cannot or do not want to stream the show, and folks who have concerns about the fleeting rights to streaming media. After a few seasons now produced in the new CBS/Paramount+ Star Trek Universe, Picard season 2 is part of a growing list of new seasons produced in HDR ( Picard seasons 1-2, Discovery seasons 2-4, and Strange New Worlds season 1) and are available to stream in HDR from Paramount+, I would be remiss in not expressing disappointment with the lack of a UHD Blu-ray release to let the typically gorgeous cinematography really shine.

Great review thanks for posting it. S2 of Picard for me was a good season of Trek but not as enjoyable as S1 imo.

So far the current Trek shows have been fantastic with Picard being my 2nd favorite of the current shows(Discovery is my most favorite with Prodigy being my 3rd, Lower Decks being my 4th and SNW being my 5th favorite). With that said i love each show differently (just like i do with all the older shows) and they all have been great Trek.

I have my copy of S2 blu-ray pre-ordered and looking forward to watching this season again in better video quality. November 14 can’t come soon enough.

TNGs Voyage Home to s1s Search For Data, and s3s Undiscovered Country?? (and Nemesis is TNGs Wrath of Khan lol)

Is anyone else seeing straight through CBS’s ploy to get us to buy these seasons on Blu-Ray now, only to release a HDR versions later, compelling us to buy them once again? They have the Dolby Vision coding; they should put it on the discs (and even raise the price a little if they feel its warranted). I don’t know if I’m more bothered by the lack of HDR on these discs, or the fact that I’m going to buy the initial releases as well as the HDR updates, too, when they come out.

These are regular 2K editions on regular BD. Not 4K UHD. Why would you expect HD or DV on them? And seeing that there are no ST series releases on 4K, and the movies take so long (there are still 4 to go with no news about them), I wouldn’t hold my breath waiting for any series on that format.

Thanks for asking a question dripping with condescension and an insinuation I’m an idiot. Good to know even Star Trek website comments are still breeding grounds for aggression and posturing.

Obviously I don’t expect DV on standard BD. But if they released the series on 4K with DV I would buy it. I’m buying this one now since it’s all there is, but it’s going to annoy me if/when they release a 4K HDR version someday causing me to buy it all over again.

Interesting thought: Maybe I’m subsidizing the future 4K release with my current purchase…

I get what you’re saying. But I think the current reality of physical media becoming a niche means this is likely the only disc format CBS will release the series on.

UHD Blu-ray is considered a premium format.

TV studios are just not spending that kind of money to put their TV shows on physical home video. Alas we are now in a market where studios only put something out on physical media if they think there’s a market for it, and when they do it’s in the lowest common denominator format that they can get away with.

You’re probably right, which is a shame because I love physical media for its freedom from internet lag and guaranteed A/V quality. Plus, so long as my player works I’ll always have access.

I have several people I’m bringing through the franchise, and I always use the discs for our viewings.

When it comes to a season like Picard S2, which is actually in 4K and DV on P+, but does not on the disc, which version do you suggest showing them?

It’s a bit of a toss up for me at the moment. (Luckily, I’m still way back in the 90s with these friends so I have some time.) But as an intellectual exercise, which would you choose?

Thanks, Jason

I agree it’s a shame about not getting this on physical media at the highest possible quality.

For the disc vs. streaming question, I think it’s probably a matter of what’s convenient when you get up to the newer shows. The shows look good on Blu-ray, so say you’re at a friend’s house it’s probably easier to just bring the disc rather than login on someone’s streaming device. But if you’re already logged in, it might be just as easy to just fire up the P+ app.

Fair points.

What if both are equally convenient? You’re at home. You have the Blu-ray and P+. Do you go with the streaming version for the higher quality potential? Or the disc for the absence of streaming rate variability?

Enquiring minds want to know…

(Sorry for belaboring the point. But these are the sorts of things I think about.)

I’d probably lean towards the streaming option since I have a supported device for 4K/HDR from P+ But it’s a toss up. I don’t really like P+ image quality, you can tell they’re just not the best at the whole streaming thing, but I’d like to think the potential for HDR edges it out.

I appreciate your feedback.

Which series/seasons are truly at a quality above 2K Blu-ray?

Discovery (but is Season 1? It plays in DV if I recall, but, is it correctly coded for it?) Picard (all seasons I think) Strange New Worlds

And the cartoons are not in 4K I believe.

Have I got that right?

So it’s been a while since I’ve investigated the available versions of all the new shows and seasons. Here’s what I remember from a while ago:

DSC S1 – Netflix did show in 1080p HDR, however there were lots of complaints about it not looking right at the time. If I recall correctly P+ doesn’t offer S1 in HDR.

PIC S1/S2 and DSC S2/S3 are 1080p HDR

DSC S4 and SNW S1 are 4K HDR

And you’re correct both PRO and LDS are 1080p SDR. Which is shame since PRO could look amazing in HDR.

This is great info. Thanks, Matt!

It is unbelievable indeed that current Trek shows are not available in UHD! Every new Star Wars and Marvel series are out there in glorious UHD and we’re stuck with HD. That alone makes this set uninteresting for purchase.

I’m really wondering why that is. I’m just hoping it’s not the fact they cheaped-out on VFX and had everything rendered only in HD.

Literally none of the Star Wars shows since Mandalorian are on disc at all. Most of the Marvel ones aren’t either. Be glad Trek is still coming out at all; that’s why I bought this season of Picard even though I thought it was by far the worst Star Trek ever made.

Thanks for covering this topic, I was thinking about making a similar reply.

I’ll just add on to say, UHD Blu-ray is considered a premium format.

TV studios are just not spending that kind of money to put their TV shows on physical home video. Alas we are now in a market where studios only put something out on physical media if they think there’s a market for it, and when they do it’s in the lowest common denominator format that they can get away with.

Another industry example is that most Fox shows are only put out on DVD. That even includes their perennial cash cow The Simpsons, which had a few seasons released on Blu-ray before they gave up on it. CBS/Paramount+ also follows this trend for shows that aren’t called Star Trek, their critically acclaimed show The Good Fight is only available on DVD.

Can’t say I blame Fox for giving up on Simpsons Blu-rays. How much detail do you want in a show like that? “The hairs on Homer’s head look so crisp!”

I didn’t know that regarding The Good Fight. My feeling is that it’s only going to get more common for shows to just not be on disc at all; heck, the final two seasons of “The Expanse” aren’t, which is a crime against sci-fi.

Trekkies, put your money where your mouth is or we’ll be in the same position eventually.

I think he may be referring to how the show is presented on Paramount+ vs Disney+ and how this disc release doesn’t offer an upgrade for a lot of people.

Every Marvel and Star Wars series on Disney+ offers DolbyVision and Dolby Atmos (or HDR for those without DolbyVision sets) while Paramount+ only offers 4K on select devices and only if you subscribe to the premium plan.

According to Paramount+, only the following devices offer 4K:

• Select Roku models
• Amazon Fire TV (4K Stick, Cube)
• Apple TV 4K HDR (5th Gen)

That excludes a lot of TV’s and devices which likely means most viewers are not watching this series and others in 4K on Paramount+.

Thank you, that’s exactly what I’m referring to. I didn’t mention Blu-ray discs at all.

You’re commenting on a physical media release review, so I think most us assumed you were talking about release on disc.

A lot of the reasoning behind how studios decide which home media format to use for their properties will no doubt come from examinations of the demographics who watch. There wouldn’t be any point in putting The Good Fight (for example) on UHD when the audience evidently only have DVD players.

Wasn’t talking about UHD Blu-ray. I was talking about the availability of the shows in UHD, like at all. Streaming in UHD is nog longer a premium, for most streaming platforms it’s the standard for their new shows.

Who said anything about discs? I was talking about the fact that the current Trek shows aren’t available in UHD, like at all!

As Denny C pointed out, while the device list is (pathetically) small, P+ actually does support 4K and HDR. Both SNW S1 and DSC S4 were available in 4K and in HDR.

“Every new Star Wars and Marvel series are out there in glorious UHD”

Huh? No they’re not. Many of the Marvel and Star Wars shows aren’t even available except for on streaming.

Also, most people don’t even have UHD players. Sales on them have been modest at best. So studios are not in a rush to release things in that format, since there’s a good chance not enough people will buy them. As such, your rant seems rather bizarre.

Up until recently most of those shows were rendered and finished in 2k. The Star Wars prequels are 2k res or less. Every shot in the originals that is a special edition shot and not an original effect is 2k. Only the scanned 35mm film is real 4k. But the scenes with optical effects, some that went through an optical printer aren’t of the same quality as those live action scenes without effects. Only the Imax scenes in Force Awakens are at 4k or higher res. The rest of the film was rendered and edited at 2k res. But no one has noticed.

Yes the are, on streaming. Not once did I mention those shows are put on disc in UHD, that’s what you read into it. So my ‘rant’, Lorna, was not bizarre at all. Maybe not jump to conclusions without asking me first what I meant, if that wasn’t clear to you, “as such”.

Literally only one of the shows has a 4K DI. and was shot in 4K Picard. Everything else is going to be upscaled. Up until now the DI for all the shows has been 2k. So yeah there were HDR 2k streams but they weren’t real 4K. Tv treks sweet spot was 2k and they were upgrading the movies only to 4k, with the exception of Enterprise which is HDCAM 1080P, and Deep Space Nine and Voyager which are 480P.

Sorry i meant Strange New Worlds is the first trek show with a 4K DI and shot in native 4K. Disney was doing 4K right out of the gate with Mando. Star Trek literally only now has started using 4K cameras.

The whole season was a gag reel.

but terribly unfunny…

Picard season two already made me gag and reel.

I am firmly in the minority in thatI thoroughly enjoyed Season 2. I found it to be the single best season of Trek since DS9’s penultimate outing. While I didn’t mind that the extended trip to 2024- I do wish it had not come at the expense of getting a better look at the Federation in the early 25th century. But I’m guessing that what Season 3 is for!

I am also in the minority of those who enjoyed it. I have a couple minor nitpicks, and yeah spending more time in the 25th Century (even an alternate one) would have been preferable. Those middle six episodes could have been condensed to three, and then we could have been treated to more of the Borgati Collective helping with the anomaly at the end. But yeah overall Season 2 is enjoyable. It doesn’t rank as high as Season 1 for me, but still worth owning.

I found this season so abysmal, especially the last half, I didn’t even watch the last two episodes. So disappointing. I wouldn’t even use these discs as coasters.

The first and last episodes were good. The seven or eight in between were tedious.

I found the first two pretty fantastic, but for me it went downhill pretty quick. I had such high hopes, too, it’s a shame.

I’ll say you might want to watch the last episode because you can basically watch Episodes 1,2 and 10 and you have the best of the entire season.

The ending of season 2 with jurati and the Borg was probably the biggest jump the shark moment since Riker &Troi on Enterprise …

Q and Picard scenes were excellent but needed a bit more of Q than just a glorified cameo.

It made no sense at all. The Borg are now the good guys who saved the Universe. And inclusive as well thanks to Jurati. It was canon destroying, it was fanfiction.

Quote, “The sophomore season of Star Trek: Picard arrives on home video today in the USA.”

Will there be a senior or 4th season?

That there’s no UHD 4K Blu Ray with HDR indeed REALLY is disappointing me and I will not buy the normal blu ray without HDR.

This season had some really good moments, which leads one to think there was so much potential there. That being said, once we got to 2024 and all we want to do was get out of 2024 and we didn’t until the last possible moment it was so deflating. So far the 2020’s have sucked in real life so I guess it’s kind of fitting that most of the show’s time there was like being in purgatory. I wonder how much of the show’s time there had to do with budget and COVID. I kept thinking and saying do they remember Star Trek is a show set in space. Also, Picard was a captain who elected to have a mental health professional on the bridge of his star ship every day for years and he needs Q (of all people) to help him through his childhood issues and trauma, really? Also disappointing. 

I really think if you’re going to do these highly serialized shows, especially when they aren’t based on books, where you have a pre-thought out structure you need to write the whole damn session from start to finish. Because they seem to get so lost in the middle so often and ST: Picard isn’t alone here. I just hope Season 3 is the redemption season we all hope it is. It’s going to take a few episodes before we can just sit back, enjoy the ride and trust that the writers know what exactly they are doing, even if it’s going good and that’s pretty sad because we all want to love the show and we have from the start.

Star Trek Had A Huge Star Wars Easter Egg - But It Was Cut

"Star Trek" and "Star Wars" are two of the best sci-fi franchises out there, and they're still going strong after all these years. As such, they are often compared to each other, and debates regarding which saga is better have informed pop culture discourse for decades. That said, what if both franchises were part of the same universe and people could embrace them equally?

That's probably never going to happen, but "Star Trek: The Next Generation" tried to make it so. A "Star Wars" Easter egg appeared in Season 2's "Up the Long Ladder" episode, according to Larry Nemecek's "Star Trek: The Next Generation Companion." The moment occurs when the HMS New Zealand ship is sent to a planet called Alderaan -- you know, the same planet that is destroyed by the Death Star in "Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope."

The planet isn't explicitly mentioned on TNG, but it could be spotted on computer screens. Unfortunately, the reference was removed for the Blu-ray release and replaced with the planet Aldebaran, ultimately debunking any notion that both sci-fi sagas are canonically linked. Still, the thought has led to some interesting fan conversations -- and there are other references to the galaxy far, far away.

There's A Star Wars Easter Egg In Star Trek: DS9

It seems that sneaky "Star Wars" homages were an in-joke for some "Star Trek" creators, as Alderaan briefly reappeared in another series. In the "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine" Season 1 episode titled "A Man Alone," the planet crops up during the scene where Odo (René Auberjonois) checks Ibudan's (Stephen James Carver) calendar.

Meanwhile, other fans have pondered how the Federation would have reacted to the Galactic Republic's destruction of Alderaan. As Redditor  u/TheBurgareanSlapper wrote, "If Alderaan is an Imperial planet, its destruction is a clear-cut case of an internal Empire affair and none of the Federation's business. The most the Federation Council may do is send a strongly worded letter to the Imperial Ambassador. Maybe."

Sadly, high-definition Blu-ray technology has ruined the idea that both franchises are canonically intertwined. That said, "Star Wars" and "E.T." might exist in the same universe , which is also an exciting notion.

Star Trek: Discovery's Mary Wiseman On Tilly's Season 5 Arc & Burnham Friendship

Star trek: discovery proves starfleet academy show doesn’t make sense without tilly, star trek: discovery’s moll & l’ak could never find season 5’s treasure on their own.

WARNING: Contains SPOILERS for Star Trek: Discovery, season 5, episode 6, "Whistlespeak"

• Lt. Sylvia Tilly's growth on away missions shows her capability and confidence as she steps out of her comfort zone in "Whistlespeak."
• Tilly has completed 6 successful away missions on Star Trek: Discovery.
• With support from mentors like Saru and friends like Burnham, Tilly becomes the best version of herself on Star Trek away missions.

Star Trek: Discovery 's Lieutenant Sylvia Tilly (Mary Wiseman) is an infrequent member of the USS Discovery's away missions, with Star Trek: Discovery season 5, episode 6 , "Whistlespeak", marking Tilly's 6th official away mission as part of Discovery's crew. Tilly only has one away mission recorded prior to Star Trek: Discovery season 3, but that year marks a huge step forward for Tilly's character development. Captain Saru (Doug Jones) makes Ensign Tilly his Number One despite Tilly's low rank, and requests Tilly's presence on away missions that Saru believes will benefit from Tilly's personable demeanor.

Sylvia Tilly's promotion to Lieutenant in Star Trek: Discovery season 4 comes with new responsibilities, including participation in more Star Trek away missions, which Tilly is more likely to take on of her own volition. Each time Sylvia takes another bold step out of her comfort zone, Tilly gains more confidence and becomes a better Starfleet officer. Tilly's growth is noticed by the people who care for her, so her mentor, Captain Saru, and best friend, Captain Michael Burnham (Sonequa Martin-Green), both continue to push for Sylvia Tilly to broaden her horizons with more away missions as Star Trek: Discovery continues.

Screen Rant interviews Mary Wiseman about Star Trek: Discovery season 5, Tilly's friendship with Burnham, and her thoughts on the series ending.

6 Star Trek: Discovery Season 2, Episode 10 - "The Red Angel"

Tilly helps prepare for the red angel's arrival.

As a cadet in Star Trek: Discovery season 1, Sylvia Tilly's scientific skills are often better suited to duties aboard the USS Discovery, but Tilly's promotion to Ensign in Star Trek: Discovery season 2 lets Sylvia see her first proper away mission. In Star Trek: Discovery season 2, episode 10, Ensign Sylvia Tilly is part of the away team that beams down to Essof IV, a planet with no breathable atmosphere, to set up the "mousetrap" designed to contain the Red Angel in Star Trek: Discovery season 2 . The bait in the mousetrap is Michael Burnham , whose survival is linked to previous appearances of the Red Angel throughout Michael's past.

To summon the Red Angel and hopefully contain it for further study, Burnham insists on putting her life in danger by intentionally being exposed to Essof IV's toxic atmosphere. Ensign Tilly is no fan of the dangerous plan but is on hand to monitor signs of the tachyon radiation that always accompanies the Red Angel's appearances. After long moments of waiting and watching Michael suffer from asphyxiation, Tilly finally reports on the tachyon spike that eventually comes right before Burnham nearly dies.

When the "mousetrap" works, Star Trek: Discovery season 2's first Red Angel is revealed to be Gabrielle Burnham (Sonja Sohn), Michael Burnham's mother, but Gabrielle didn't set the Red Angel signals.

5 Star Trek: Discovery Season 3, Episode 2 - "Far From Home"

Saru & tilly look for help on a hostile ice planet.

In Star Trek: Discovery season 3, episode 2, "Far From Home", Commander Saru (Doug Jones) chooses Sylvia Tilly as the person to join the away mission on an unknown ice planet after the USS Discovery misses the target planet of Terralysium, and instead crash-lands in the 32nd century. Discovery is badly in need of repair, and Saru believes that Tilly's natural ability to put people at ease will be an asset in trading some of Discovery's dilithium for the rubindium needed to fix Discovery's communications systems.

Saru is right, of course. When Saru and Tilly approach a single outpost in the frigid wasteland, Tilly's assertion that they're Starfleet officers makes one of the local miners, Kal (Jonathan Koensgen), curious and eager to help. Trouble comes with Zareh (Jake Weber), a conceited courier who acts outwardly hostile towards Tilly, and straight-up murders Kal for helping Saru and Tilly. The encounter indicates that the USS Discovery crew is definitely not in the 23rd century anymore , and Tilly is going to have to adjust to Star Trek: Discovery season 3's time jump.

4 Star Trek: Discovery Season 4, Episode 1 - "Kobayashi Maru"

Tilly leads the away team to help deep space repair beta six.

In Star Trek: Discovery season 4, episode 1, "Kobayashi Maru", Lieutenant Sylvia Tilly undergoes her own version of the famous Starfleet Academy no-win scenario test , but this time, the Kobayashi Maru is for real. A distress call from the space station Deep Space Repair Beta Six, experiencing the effects of a gravitational anomaly, alerts the crew of the USS Discovery, and Lt. Tilly leads the away mission to help fix the station's thrusters, with Ensign Adira Tal (Blu del Barrio) in tow.

After the station collides with debris pulled in by the gravitational distortion, the theoretically simple repair job turns into an evacuation, complete with broken transporters and a dearth of escape pods leading to a nerve-wracking countdown. Tilly manages to focus on the situation despite her own nerves, and steps up to take charge, sending shaken station personnel back to the USS Discovery, while Tilly, Tal, and station commander Nalas (Rodrigo Fernandez-Stol) wait for rescue. Tilly's tenacious refusal to abandon the station as the clock ticks down is a catalyst for a change of plans and, after returning to the USS Discovery following the harrowing experience, Tilly starts to rethink her life choices in Star Trek 's 32nd century.

3 Star Trek: Discovery Season 4, Episode 3 - "Choose to Live"

Tilly and burnham help the qowat milat track down a romulan murderer.

Lt. Sylvia Tilly's growing uncertainty about the direction of her new life prompts Captain Saru to suggest Tilly as a companion for Captain Michael Burnham's away mission in Star Trek: Discovery season 4, episode 3, "Choose to Live", a joint venture with the Romulan Qowat Milat , after a Starfleet officer is murdered by a Qowat Milat nun named J'Vini (Ayesha Mansur Gonsalves). Tilly's way out of her comfort zone, but Michael and the two Qowat Milat sisters -- one of whom is Michael's mother, Gabrielle Burnham (Sonja Sohn) -- are skilled enough to carry the weight of any combat they may face in bringing J'Vini to justice.

The Qowat Milat, first introduced in Star Trek: Picard , are a sect of Romulan warrior nuns who dedicate their lives to lost causes. Star Trek: Discovery season 3 reveals that Gabrielle Burnham joined the Qowat Milat after the Red Angel suit tied Gabrielle to the 32nd century.

Lt. Tilly helps piece together that the moon that J'Vini flees to is actually a spaceship housing the last remnants of the Abronians, a dormant species that J'Vini swore to ferry to their ultimate destination before reawakening. J'Vini's story of finding the Abronians and dedicating her blade to their lost cause shakes something loose in Tilly's ennui , as Tilly considers how her own new path might be similar to J'Vini's, as a deviation from the tracks that they'd each been on.

The cast of Star Trek: Starfleet Academy has yet to be announced, but Mary Wiseman's Lieutenant Sylvia Tilly should definitely be a part of it.

2 Star Trek: Discovery Season 4, Episode 4 - "All Is Possible"

Tilly trains starfleet cadets on a snowy moon.

Exploring new directions for her life, Lt. Sylvia Tilly volunteers to train a squad of Starfleet Academy cadets, but the routine planetary survey mission turns into a trial by fire. Growing up in Star Trek: Discovery 's post-Burn galaxy means the cadets already don't get along, thanks to the vast social chasms spread wide among all of them. Val Sasha (Amanda Arcuri) has never met a non-human, and Harral (Seamus Patterson), an Orion, and Taahz Gorev (Adrian Walters), a Tellarite, are outright hostile towards one another. That alone would be a difficult challenge for a new teacher, but a gamma ray burst knocks the shuttle off course, sending the Starfleet Academy team spiraling into a crash landing.

Tilly's 23rd century approach of cooperation through communication and empathy works.

It's up to Lt. Tilly to keep the fledging crew of cadets calm in the face of almost certain danger, and help them work together if they're going to make it out alive, because this is not the mission that any of them -- including Sylvia Tilly -- prepared for. Tilly's 23rd century approach of cooperation through communication and empathy works, and pierces through the 32nd century walls that Harral and Gorev have put up, and encourages Sasha to speak up. The disaster turns out to be a breakthrough, and Tilly decides that she wants to be a teacher at Starfleet Academy, setting up the possibility of Sylvia Tilly being in Star Trek: Starfleet Academy .

1 Star Trek: Discovery Season 5, Episode 6 - "Whistlespeak"

Tilly races to save the pre-warp planet halem'no.

Captain Burnham selects Lt. Sylvia Tilly as an away team partner to retrieve the next clue in Star Trek: Discovery season 5's treasure hunt, which is likely to be found in a weather tower constructed centuries earlier by the Denobulan scientist Hitoroshi Kreel. The tower brings rain to Halem'no, a dry planet that's home to a pre-warp society, so the local Halem'nites revere the station as a holy temple that can only be entered by the winners of a traditional race. The solution, then, is simple: enter the race and win.

Tilly has been uncertain about the impact she's had on her Starfleet Academy students, but this test of endurance is well within Lt. Tilly's abilities. Thanks to Sylvia's kindness, both Lt. Tilly and Ravah (June Laporte), a Halem'nite youth, win entry to the temple and the honor of being sacrificed to Halem'no's gods. (Wait, what?) While Burnham kicks down Star Trek 's Prime Directive to save Tilly (and all of Halem'no), Sylvia's compassion towards Ravah keeps them going through what they believe is their last moments, and Star Trek: Discovery season 5, episode 6, "Whistlespeak", serves to remind Tilly that she does belong at Starfleet Academy, despite the doubts she's been having.

Lt. Sylvia Tilly's participation in the away missions on Star Trek: Discovery has only increased as Discovery goes on, and the 6 missions that Tilly has gone on so far have each contributed to Tilly's overall character arc. By taking steps off of the USS Discovery, Tilly breaks out of her comfort zone and realizes that she's capable of more than she originally believed. Each mission helps Tilly come closer to her ultimate goal of teaching at Starfleet Academy in a slow, realistic way that keeps Tilly relatable and true to character, as Tilly becomes the best version of herself on Star Trek: Discovery away missions.

Star Trek: Discovery season 5 streams Thursdays on Paramount+.
