Picard Series – Why it needs Q

Photo credit: Rory Lewis Photography. As Rain Robinson declared "you can't stop a girl speculating!" And that's what we intend to do with the Untitled Picard Series. With our usual disclaimer that we promise not to go all Ferengi/EMH should there be any similarity to what's actually produced. Which isn't a risk because Star Trek writers are 1000 times more talented and creative. Remember, the Trekkie Girls know nothing. We are not a news site, we are just plain and simple bloggers.  In our last vBlog I (Sam) speculated what I'd like to see. In short:
  • The aftermath of the Dominion war left some paranoid bad Admirals in Starfleet.
  • Section 31 gained too much power granted to them by the admiralty when it was convenient during  war time.
  • The destruction of Romulas has created a refugee class in the galaxy.

Trekkie Girls ep – Picard, DCS S2 and Convention Goals

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lz1zDXFeonU&]   We discuss the 'Picard announcement' and what we hope to see with a disclaimer that WE TOTALLY WON'T LAWYER UP IF THIS HAPPENS! We talk about Season two of Star Trek Discovery and our Trek Goals - what we are doing to survive from one Star Trek Convention to the next. We bought our T-Shirts from Chase Masterson to support the Pop Culture Hero Coalition. A non profit organisation which works to educate and support children, teens and adults to overcome bullying and social injustice, and to transform their struggles into strengths, using stories and characters from pop culture TV, film, and comics.

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nM0qBJJy1OE] The Saturday of any convention is always the busiest. Fortunately at STLV this never leads to suffering. It's a combination best described as  Starship on red alert with officers racing to their stations and a party on Risa, where no one knows anyone but you're all friends. We had no idea that this day was going to pan out the way it did. Earlier in the week we briefly stopped to say Hi to someone at CBS and they said "We got a surprise this weekend, I think you'll like it". We didn't think anything of it. Perhaps an Enterprise shaped cat basket was about to be announced!? We gazed at the info on the screen informing us Alex Kurtman had a surprise announcement  and suspected that they were going to tell us the air date of Season 2 Discovery. Or that they had cast Spock. BUT THEN THIS HAPPENED!!...... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jPFtLRgjVc Patrick Stewart wasn't billed to be at STLV … Continue Reading ››
