I was dreading this moment. RIP.

I’ll be re-watching The Inner Light in his honor tonight.

À propos of nothing, my favorite Picard episodes:

1. The Drumhead

2. Tapestry

3. The Inner Light

4. Chain of Command

5. Darmok

I know a lot of people would put "Family" on that list, I just can't say I enjoy that one too much. I also like his dialogue in "Yesterday's Enterprise", but I wouldn't call it a Picard-focused one.

  • Darmok was wildly creative, I thought. It's one of the only times I've ever felt just utterly amazed by the quality of the storytelling on a television show.

    • I watched Darmok with my youngest and they quickly realized they communicated through memes.

What an episode. Are we in a variant of this? Sometimes I feel like humans would deserve it, sometimes there is some light
