It's really sad to say, but having nothing else to do while working I binge watched the entire season in a bit over a day. I guess I liked community, but not sure how much Danny Glover's acting was ... well, good even then... I mean, he's fine enough and likeable as a human ?.. but I guess I just thought, hey, it's based off the two titular movies so should be fast paced fun and funny spy thriller, right? Ya! First few seconds lol "Brad" Smith endearingly brings up that squirrel! After that? All downhill. These are two dull characters badly acted out, rejects from other programs, but not for anything cool lol simply for being defective... And they take this narrative of boring and defective individuals and spread it over 8 episodes, basically a sad relationship "dramedy" following a hollywood type formula without any actual heart, a script acted out for money. Paid for by these really bad adds ... (shame on you amazon lol)

I am writing this to balance the odd 8 star + ratings on here. Odd reviews. I don't get it... I don't know if there is a different standard these days. But I guess they probably don't understand me! I literally almost shut it off a few times during the last episode out of sheer boredom and the predictability and unbelievable writing.

If I got one thing out of that series, it's the chance to practice my writing a little bit here to express how much of a waste of my time it was.. :-/ oy.. Yeah I hear myself. But trust. Me, unless like me you have literally nothing better to watch while doing something else, or for some reason you enjoy really low level relationship drama, just move on. These are not the Smiths you are looking for...

Ya, I mean, if you are reading this, either like me you are trying to see if anyone understood anything and you are seeking validation that this is completely and utterly out to lunch, or you are genuinely trying to figure out if you should watch this.

Well, if you have not seen it, just walk away. Now. I would give you reasons why not, but really, I don't understand enough of what is going on to do so. Just trust me, not worth your time unless you like to pretend you are smarter than you are...

To be fair, maybe you ARE that smart. Maybe you and the director are the only two people on earth to actually get it. If this is you, I am sorry, it must be really hard dealing with all us soft boiled brains.

If on the other hand you want to know if anyone else feels the way you do, yes, would be zeros all the way, but the lowest we can rate it is 1. And then we need to use 600 words or more to explain to people why it is all so ... whatever it is... Or maybe there is more going on in those dark blurry shaky scenes I didn't see. Maybe I just didn't have the brightness and contrast set high enough...

The culmination of Jean Luc Picard's heroic quest!! The philosopher king back or one more run at saving the galaxy.

One of those rare 10/10 series, although I guess a part of it requires the TNG as a prequel to deliver the full power.

To see Brent Spiner in different roles is great. Loved Data. Patrick Stewart is surprisingly still amazing, full on and a great motivator. I would still follow him into battle 10/10!

And well, just to be clear, Seven of Nine... still and always amazing. And all the new crew are top notch and pleasant add ins. Love Elron!!

"Choose to live." "Yes, I very much choose to live!"

The whole season story arcs for 1 and 2 are great each in their own respect, the first being more contemporary, the second being very nostalgic inducing for Star Trek TNG fans as it all comes together...

Well done! Thanks to all who participated to make this one happen! Amazing addition to the Star Trek Canon.
