STAR TREK PICARD - GUINAN IS BACK

Whoopi Goldberg (Oscar and Golden Globe Winner) aka Guinan aboard the starship USS Enterprise NCC 1701-D in Star Trek the Next Generation is back. Thats right. Goldberg who has massive fans across the world and her awards speak for themselves was invited by Patrick Stewart himself onto the new Star Trek series.

PATRICK STEWART AND WHOOPI GOLDBERG

"Guinan" stars in Star Trek Picard opposite the character Picard "your answers are not in the stars and they never have been" which adds spiritual realism boldly going where no-one has gone before on two levels. 1) Goldberg appeared 29 times already in Star Trek TNG as Guinan centuries older and wise beyond her years. She looks great for 100 in Times Arrow 2) now here she is again with the "Picard" 400 years younger but in a different timeline.


2024 400 YEARS EARLIER GUINAN
IDO AGHAVERE


  Ido Aghayere steps into the role as Jean Luc's "oldest friend" Guinan in season 2 episode 4 in "Watcher"  She plays the divergence 2024 version of Guinan in a  timeline trekkers won't remember because the "new Guinan" timeline  hasn't occurred. The reason we know this to be true is Q (John De Lancie) has been messing around with time again up to his old tricks again!. So instead of the United Federation of Planets we see a divergence and Confederation of Planets!

How many seasons will Star Trek Picard have?

Three seasons

MARCH 6, 2022 - It's looking like more and more of a certainty that Star Trek: Picard will end with just three seasons. Picard showrunner Terry Matalas shared a photo from the set over the weekend, seemingly saying goodbye “forever” to Star Trek: Picard.

Is Star Trek: Picard coming to Netflix?

Exclusive: Star Trek's Discovery And Picard are Coming To Netflix.

Do you think Guinan is a Time Lord like Dr Who?

Guinan has had dealings with Q and the Continuum. Why is  Q afraid of her?


Live Long and Prosper, Trekkers

I just started Picard (I was trying to finish TNG first, but there were so many episodes a season in the 90s lol), so I'm excited to see where it goes. Whoopi was so excited when Sir Pat asked her. She is one of my favorite characters.

I like the new Guinan but parts of the show are going off the rails a bit, so not sure how many seasons it will last.

Three seasons is probably as much as we can hope for. Patrick Stewart is not a young man anymore. I just hope we get to check in on Worf, Geordi, Beverly, and Wesley before the show is over.

I'm about a week behind right now. I had a feeling they'd be running into Guinan in the past. (They only just got there were I left off.)

Star Trek Picard works for me because its got powerful fresh expectations which propel the characters we all love. So you see why its not the same as previous Star Trek. I must congratulate the writers. Its got that magic and likability but your right James, Patrick Stewart can only do so much. Its the actors who make it happen too. Whoopi Goldberg X-factor is whats needed and with more TNG collaboration I expect we could have a season 4 but for that egos will have to power down. Three Seasons is on the cards Alex and you guessed right Liz. TNG is addictive Debra once you start you'll be hooked on trek for life, lol.
