Six journalists famously storm the bridge of the Enterprise-B at the beginning of "Star Trek Generations". They work for different news channels or agencies, but the logos actually visible in the movie are not quite the ones we would have expected to see. Our article about Reporters in "Star Trek Generations" investigates the logos and also the costumes in great detail.

Updated Poll: Rate the latest episode, PIC: "Broken Pieces".

There is a lot to discover besides graphic violence in the controversial episode "Stardust City Rag". Read the new article Observations in PIC: "Stardust City Rag" by Jörg Hillebrand and Bernd Schneider.

Data did not have mucus! Read my review of PIC: "Nepenthe", an episode that could have been even better, had it focused on Picard, Riker, Troi, Kestra and Soji on the eponymous planet.

After working several days and nights, Jörg and I have completed a huge new article with as many as 250 images: Observations in PIC: "Remembrance". We may take on the whole series in future articles.

Here is my review of the latest Short Treks episode, "Children of Mars". The Picard prequel starts off with an everyday story, builds up anticipation and ends with big shocking news - and many questions.

While I'm waiting for a chance to watch the latest Short Treks episode "Children of Mars", here is a comment on Patrick Stewart's interview with Variety, in which he announced Picard as a series where "The world of 'Next Generation' doesn't exist anymore."

Happy New Year 2020! There are a couple of new entries in the list of Visual Crossovers with Other Series/Movies.

Besides several other housekeeping tasks, I have also replaced well over 100 old screen caps in the Starship Database with better ones (HD where available).
