I tried to find the leaks but they've all been deleted apparently, RIP. I'd like to know how bad/good this show is without paying to disappoint myself. You guys need to hurry up with the reviews

Patrick Stewart went on the View for his promotion tour of the show and with S2 already being confirmed, personally invited Whoopi Goldberg to reprise her role for the 2nd season
Edit:
Especially the end. Oh my God.

It was getting too late last night when I posted that so I only got around to watching past the first couple minutes a little bit ago. It was fine. Not sure what people are bothered about with that, and don't really care.
Finished the episode, I enjoyed it a lot. Not sure why some critics are just hating on it, pacing seemed fine for what it is and Stewart just nailed it.

Yeah, I have no issue with it so far, particularly looking at it through the lens of needing to world build a bit to connect the dots between the end of the movies and the series present.

I fucking loved the first episode. I´d be willing to bet that 9 out of 10 reviewers who hate on Picard loved Discovery, so fuck them and their worthless opinions. The interview alone was more Star Trek than all of Discovery combined. Can´t wait to see where they´ll take it. Also awwww at Sir Patrick inviting Whoopie to get on board for S2 on her show. Now all we need is John de Lancie and Michael Dorn to make it perfect.

I don't see what there was to hate, unless you wanted TNG 2.0, which we all know we weren't going to get. Picard would very much like to go on another adventure, and I'm on board with it. With Whoopie hopefully on board for season 2, I'd love it if they could explore her races relation with the Q and/or why she was so close to Picard.
I mean, I kinda wanted TNG 2.0 but I also really enjoyed the more “have a main story” approached that DS9 took as well.. I pretty much like all Star Trek except Discovery and the prequel one. I’m not a picky man when it comes to Star Trek, so long as it has a certain feel to it, that I can’t explain, it’ll do fine for me.
Oof, and I respect Mike/Rich's opinions on Star Trek... they're almost as big of a Star Trek nerd as I am. I look forward to their Mid-season review though. I still hold hope because some of you really enjoyed it.
Edit: Also can we talk about B-4 being disassembled? I thought in this timeline, ala Star Trek:Countdown, Data had fully asserted himself over B-4, was reinstated into Starfleet, and was Captain of the Enterprise-E? Hell even in the books, B-4 was transferred to the Daystrom Institute where Bruce Maddox fought, and won, a legal battle to have him classified as sentient, and therefor could not be disassembled.
I'm trying to wrap my head around all the Star Trek multiverses, but I assumed this took place in the "Prime" timeline, so B-4 should be Data, and therefor a Captain of the Enterprise E and fully sentient... so why would they have just murdered the dude and took him apart? Or did they specify beforehand which Timeline this takes place in, because theres so many of them.
