That was a great finale, well, sorta, i expected a lot more Borg interaction, seems like they’ve been dragged into the plot for no real reason, other than to lure Seven/Annika into the plot.
But, the Riker standoff was good, the retired pizza baker serving a hot dish.

It felt a bit weird for Picard to “accept” his new life, but knowing there will be a 2nd season, it is for the better, since it would be a bit weird to call the show Picard if he already dies in the 1st season.

Did not expect the Data closure, but that was pretty sweet, going out like a classy baller.
Also nice to see the luna moth flying and tying the sad scenes at the end.
And i have to admit, i nearly lost it when Elnor started crying.

Not sure i’m too happy about the couples on board now, Rios with Agnes, that was to be expected, but Raffi and Seven?? Did they have to hook up?
“Not that there’s anything wrong with that”(Seinfeld ref), but, i’m not really looking forward to Friends in space, there was enough relationship drama this season already, with Narek and Soji, Narek and his sister?, Agnes with Maddox etc., but alright.

All in all the first season was an enjoying mixed bag.
