Patrick Stewart’s status as one of the franchise’s most-beloved Starship captains and the prospect of Star Trek: The Next Generation cameos will give some fans nostalgic feelings they’ve felt denied of by Star Trek: Discovery’s changes.
Additionally, the Picard adventure will also entice classic Star Trek fans, specifically those who have stayed away from Star Trek: Discovery.
This is all assuming the Picard series doesn’t make similar creative changes and turn those same fans off the character’s next chapter.
