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.

PICARD AND GUINAN 
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.

GUINAN AND DATA IN TIMES ARROW

In the US, Star Trek: Picard season 2 is out now on Paramount Plus, with new episodes releasing every Thursday. Viewers outside of the US can watch season 2 now on Amazon Prime Video. New episodes hit the platform every Friday, the day after they air on Paramount+.

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 went to the local comic book store where they have a collection of toys.. they had the galoob's 1988 star trek next gen figures... for like four bucks each. i almost got a few, but i had no money... but the original [more recent] classic set of the bridge that includes figures... was worth half, i think it is time to play with my set. warp speed mr. sulu... you play the theme in your head, like i am.
   
   damn you economy!

   I love these retro toys especially the ships! I've warped around the galaxy with them too, hehe. Its really tough cheese missing the Galoob bargains, Jeremy. These retro toys are sooo cool 'cos well when TNG got huge we were big kids, so the toys took off ahead warp fact 9, hehe.
   
   I suppose the nerd in me loved building and painting AMT's model ships too, (the ones with really cool sound effects and flashing lights) but you couldn't really play with those. My Enterprise is on the shelf crying out for me. It was more fun being the engineer and putting her together. I thought all the instructions and wiring would melt my head but instead I got off building USS Enterprise NCC 1701 and it taught me something. Perservere to the end. It was really worth it. Scotty would have been proud. I felt like an accomplished Starfleet engineer, just kidding but you know what I mean.

   Who’s the absolute most terrible, awful blogger on the planet? Me!!! :-o
   
   My sincere apologies for taking so long to get over here, Spacerguy. Would you believe me if I told you the transporter malfunctioned and sent me to another far off galaxy and it’s taken me this long to get back? No...I didn’t think so.
   
   I’m running so far behind on everything, including commenting on blogs, it’s ridiculous. I truly am so pleased and honored that you thought of me (because I love your blog & I love Star Trek) and hope you’ll forgive my inexcusable tardiness. (Congrats on your awards!)

STAR TREK TNG 'THE PRICE'

Hi Trekkers, Star Trek TNG episode "The price" is hosting a bunch of dignitaries aboard the USS Enterprise NCC 1701-D. Its interesting to discover who has their eyes on the Barzan wormhole. Smooth talking Betazoid negotiator Rals shenanigans with Deanna Troi's was just sheer co-incidence right? I don't think so. I mean it can't be easy being the Enterprise-D counsellor. 

Image Owner Creator:  Paramount Pictures and or CBS Studios

So with the Barzans gathered and the greedy Ferengis around who slings his hook into Deanna? Ral. His plan (being an empath himself) was to sway the bidders emotions like he was doing with Deanna. 

Meanwhile Geordi La Forge and Data  find out the "wormhole shortcut" joining the Gamma Quadrant and the delta Quadrant together isn't so stable. Would have been real neat too. A cool 200 light years shaved off starship spaceflight if the wormhole hadn't been rife with subatomic fluctuations. Yup, it was a dud. Only the Ferengi found out too late! 

 Something very strange is happening to this wormhole
