Critics have been positive on the show’s first few episodes. As such, Star Trek: Picard is now certified fresh on Rotten Tomatoes. ComicBook.com gave the series a 4 out of 5, calling it “a triumphant return for Patrick Stewart”:
“Despite a few small missteps, the first few episodes of Star Trek: Picard are an engaging return for the titular character. Stewart’s powerful presence is the show’s backbone, but these new characters are endearing in their own right. The story is only getting started, with the first three episodes playing out like a three-act film, but it is simultaneously rewarding for longtime Star Trek fans while also being welcoming for newcomers. Star Trek: Picard looks to be an inspiring return for the titular character and fans new and old will be thrilled to be a part of the adventure.”
The first episode of Star Trek: Picard was full of interesting callbacks and revelations. The episode reveals why Picard left Starfleet and offered new information about the backstory of Nero, the villain of 2009’s Star Trek movie.
The story continued in today’s new episode, “Maps and Legends.” Like the first episode, the second is full of Easter eggs and references to Star Trek: The Next Generation and the wider Star Trek universe. It also reveals a major bombshell about Jean-Luc Picard that is sure to have fans talking. On top of all of that, it may have also introduced Star Trek fans’ new favorite romantic relationship.
