Watched the first episode of Star Trek: Picard and it was impressive. It's set a couple decades after Nemesis. Picard (Patrick Stewart) is retired and still in danger of going senile (or whatever that disease was). There's a bit about how he quit Starfleet after they didn't help the Romulan refugees (after their sun blew up according to the Star Trek 2009 movie). There's also stuff about how Androids are now hunted as rebels.

A strange woman arrives, Dahj (Isa Briones). Someone is hunting her and she had a dream that Picard would help her. Picard comes to believe that she is Data's daughter and becomes determined to help her. And to do that he's going to need help (though that's the next episode).

Production value is excellent and often movie quality (I haven't watched Discovery). There's a good metaplot setup and lots of action that doesn't involve a 79-year old Stewart. Also good that the Star Trek universe storyline is advancing once again after two series set in pre TOS days.

Quality pilot and looks to be an interesting show.
