@LN78 hopefully but I normally buy from HMV because Amazon always destroys the slip covers and they don't do a lot that's not full price unfortunately
After last week's overly busy affair, «Picard» returned with a stagey, stripped back bottle episode — heavy on exposition and dialogue but low on action and expensive CGI. Another nice Berman era cameo and a spectacular bit of (literally) schizophrenic acting from Brent Spiner were highlights but some frankly ridiculous plot armour brandished during a pretty convoluted chase scene and a disappointing back story/motive for (an all over the shop) Vadic rather tarnished the proceedings — the fact that last week's cliffhanger was barely alluded to, let alone resolved also made it smack a little of filler. That's two episodes on the spin in the minus column for me — we're heading into the business end of the season now, so I can see things picking up again next week. PS A Starfleet Academy set «Discovery» spin-off is evidently in the works. Sounds a lot like the oft mentioned «Section 31» show has been quietly shelved — I'm sure Michelle Yeoh winning an Oscar had nothing to do with that.

The latest episode was very good.
I'm overall pleased with this season and it is orders of magnitude better than the first two seasons.
