How is it possible that Picard got more? What are they watching?

[–] remotelove@lemmy.ca 10 points 9 months ago

It's about the basics. More Borg, more awards.

While assimilation is commonly used to crush helpless worlds, just a few nanites can also be used to swing key votes.

[–] USSBurritoTruck@startrek.website 9 points 9 months ago

I imagine at least part of it is that it’s seen as likely going to be the last opportunity to give the actors, especially Patrick Stewart, these awards.

[–] cali_ash@lemmy.wtf 30 points 9 months ago

Perfect example of why awards are useless.

[–] psychothumbs@lemmy.world 17 points 9 months ago

Pretty lame, basically just giving lifetime achievement awards to a bunch of beloved elderly actors rather than basing the awards on the shows and performances in question.

I gave up on picard after one and a half seasons

I know I can be picky, but I fail to see how it deserved awards for anything

[–] beefcat@beehaw.org 6 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Well you didn't watch season 3, which is the season that actually won these awards.

[–] SteleTrovilo@beehaw.org 6 points 9 months ago

I watched all 3 seasons. Season 3 should be recognized for its special effects and acting - the new characters and classic ones both perform well. Too bad it was in service to such an unneeded story.

[–] HobbitFoot@thelemmy.club 4 points 9 months ago

That's a half season longer than I gave it.

Paul Wesley is the best Kirk fight me

[–] Ashyr@sh.itjust.works 12 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Dan Jeannotte proves you wrong with every single scene he steals.

[–] Reverendender@sh.itjust.works 5 points 9 months ago

Take my upvote you %@$&%

[–] pizzaHate@startrek.website 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I'm find Paul Wesley strangely unlikable. He looks kinda weird. His movements are odd. Nothing is wrong with him, he just makes me uncomfortable. Would you please share what you like about him? I'd like to get over this weird feeling.

@pizzaHate @Reverendender I also do not enjoy the Wesley Kirk thank you for voicing your feelings about him

[–] Facebones@reddthat.com 3 points 9 months ago

SNW had too many colors, everybody knows you're not allowed to win awards with any more than two tones.
