Star Trek: 10 Episodes You Must Watch Before Picard Season 3

Teasers for the new series of Picard have stated that the opening scene of its first episode will show us Captain Beverly Crusher out on a mission which will ultimately lead to the reunion of the TNG bridge crew.

For nearly three decades, four films, and two seasons of Picard, fans have been left wondering just what happened to the relationship between Jean-Luc and Beverly. All Good Things, one possible timeline, proposed that the couple would marry but divorce. It would also show Beverly captaining her own ship, the medical frigate USS Pasteur. Star Trek: Picard might not have the Pasteur but it does have Crusher in command and promised in a more action-orientated role.

All Good Things provided a glimpse of what could have been. Riker's bitterness never emerged since Deanna didn't die. The aggressive Governor Worf has actually turned out to be a pacifist as fans have learned from the Comic-Con trailer.

Admittedly, the future of the TNG crew was always going to be different from the events of All Good Things and it's worth a rewatch just to prepare for Beverly, Geordi, and Worf's returns and how they compare to their 1994 imagined futures.

A Star Trek fan from birth, I love to dive into every aspect of the franchise in front and behind the screen. There's something here that's kept me interested for the best part of four decades! Now I'm getting back into writing and using Star Trek as my first line of literary attack. If I'm not here on WhatCulture then you're more than welcome to come and take a look at my blog, Some Kind of Star Trek at http://SKoST.co.uk or maybe follow me on Twitter as @TheWarpCore. Sometimes I force myself not to talk about Star Trek.
