@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 weeks overly busy affair, «Picard» returned with a stagey, stripped back bottle episode this week — 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 whole affair — 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.
