Mac Sykes May 9, 2023

On April 20, the third and final season of “Star Trek: Picard” concluded on Paramount+ in a triumphant finale that rocked audiences to their core. Without a doubt, the series brought “Star Trek” back to its best in over 20 years.

Following the mixed negative reception of the last two seasons from audiences, along with previous showrunners Alex Kurtzman and Akiva Goldsman departing to work on their own “Star Trek” projects, Terry Matalas, former production associate of “Star Trek: Deep Space Nine” and writer of “Star Trek: Enterprise,” was brought on board to write season three. It is clear that this is a finale that was written by the fans, for the fans.
