![Star Trek: Strange New Worlds - Season Two [Blu-ray]](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/81BlGhwFuqL._AC_UL160_SR160,160_.jpg)
“Star Trek Picard: Season One” picks up after the events of “Star Trek: Nemesis” (2002), in which Data (Brent Spiner) sacrificed himself to save the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise-E and future relations between the Federation and Romulus looked to be improving, and “Star Trek” (2009), in which Romulus was destroyed due to a supernova and Ambassador Spock was caught in a wormhole created to absorb the destructive energy, creating the Kelvin Timeline.
When the show begins in the Prime Timeline, Admiral Picard (Patrick Stewart) has retired from his position in Starfleet following the failure of the Romulan refugee effort (see: Una McCormick’s “Star Trek: Picard: The Last Best Hope”). Bitter and disappointed, he finds himself drawn back into galactic politics when a positronic, Soong-type android enters his life and claims to be the offspring of Data. Picard must work with robotics expert Dr. Agnes Jurati (Alison Pill), Dr. Soji Asha (Isa Briones), former Starfleet lieutenant commander Raffi Musiker (Michelle Hurd), civilian captain Cristóbal Rios (Santiago Cabrera), Romulan refugee Elnor (Evan Evangora), and Seven of Nine (Jeri Ryan) to help Data’s offspring and avoid members of the Romulan diaspora, including Narek (Harry Treadaway) and Starfleet, like Commodore Oh (Tamlyn Tomita) who want to eliminate the androids following the disaster on Mars. Picking up threads from “Star Trek: The Next Generation,” “Star Trek: Deep Space Nine,” and “Star Trek: Nemesis,” the series further explores the nature of Romulan culture and its relation to the Federation, especially now that they are a refugee society following the destruction of Romulus.
This Blu-ray steelbook contains all ten episodes of the first season as well as bonus features all in a sleek case. Bonus features include the “Star Trek: Short Treks” episode “Children of Mars,” story logs, deleted scenes, “Aliens Alive: The xBs,” a look at props, a look at set-building, a gag reel, and more. “Children of Mars” was not included in the “Star Trek: Short Treks” Blu-ray set, so it’s good that it’s here as the story is part of the backstory to the events between “Star Trek: Nemesis” and “Picard.” The series engages with the deep philosophical issues that drove stories in both the original “Star Trek” and “The Next Generation” while introducing wonderful new characters for the audience and featuring the return of fan-favorites. It draws upon traditions of quest and redemption stories, tapping into the quintessential truths that “Star Trek” has long elevated. Michael Chabon, Akiva Goldsman, Kirsten Beyer, and Alex Kurtzman have created something that further demonstrates the continued power of “Star Trek” for examining the human condition.
