I didn't watch Picard. How did Geordie end up with the Enterprise?

Paramount wanted to make a shit ton of money off a property they owned, so they fucked around with established continuity to give it more mass appeal.

He's the caretaker of the federation fleet museum. Basically a cushy retirement job for a guy who has a family and didn't want to get shot at any more. He's probably the only cast member that acts like an adult in Picard. 😆

So they could have undocked an historical fleet and only took their favorite ship? Seems like a tactical oversight.....

Giordi has spent like 20 years putting it back together from pieces after it was destroyed, and it was still the most powerful ship in that museum by a long shot. The Galaxy class was still in active service in Picard.

Fair enough. Would have been nice to see some Nebulas and Mirandas be used as harrying vessels.

I had forgotten it got destroyed in Generations. Poor Beverly.
