This week on Sci-Fi Adventures, I'm writing about the 26th episode of Star Trek: Picard, which also happens to be the number of episodes Star Trek shows used to have each season. If Picard was like a 90s show this would've been the season 1 finale! But it's not, it's halfway through the final season. In fact there are only four episodes left, so if my maths are correct Picard is going to end up falling a little short of Next Gen's 176 episode run.

The episode is titled The Bounty and now I suddenly I want a chocolate bar with a coconut filling. It's not an unattainable goal, but I'll get this done first.

There are going to be SPOILERS, so if you don't want everything ruined you should stop reading.

Today on Sci-Fi Adventures, I'm watching another episode of Picard, called Disengage. Hey, I see what they did there.

It was written by Christopher Monfette & Sean Tretta. I recognise Monfette from season 2, he worked on some of the better eps, but I don't think I've seen Tretta's name on anything before. Director Doug Aarniokoski has been there since the start, he's the one that did Nepenthe, The Star Gazer, Penance... lots of the good episodes. Aarniokoski was on Discovery as well, starting with the episode Lethe, so he's a proper Star Trek veteran. He hasn't done any of Strange New Worlds yet, but I suppose there's plenty of time for that now it's been renewed.

There will be SPOILERS below, so beware.
