At the same time, Picard mostly sucked... But it was good enough for me to watch through

I feel like half the problem is that not all of us are on the same page. If I say "I think this sucked", I want to talk about it, and if anything I hope someone will recontextualize it for me and make it more enjoyable.

I want to hash it out, because anyone who does that in good faith sharpens their own opinion. Maybe I'm wrong and they convince me to give it a second chance, maybe I'm wrong and realize I only liked it for nostalgia. Or maybe we realize our opinions differ, and narrow down the reason why

I don't think I'd like Picard aside from nostalgia...I don't think it was fun or artistically valuable, but I didn't stop watching. I don't think it's good-If you like it, I'm not going to say you're wrong, but I will argue no one should watch it if they don't love Patrick Stuart already. Not even TNG, the rest of the crew was pretty hollow cameos - his character was badly written, but I watched it through because it was more of his character
