Despite Star Trek: Discovery’s critical success, it was far from a fan-favorite. Though all four seasons boast an average 85 percent critical score, the audience score is at a dismal 37 percent. Since audience scores are more strongly correlated to overall viewership, Discovery simply wasn’t pulling the numbers to make it a financially viable intellectual property.
Picard season 1 was a mystery box that never went anywhere.
Picard season 2 was a wild sci-fi adventure that just doesn’t quite fit.
Picard season 3 was a season-long reunion.
Each is basically a completely different show. I liked all three, but it isn’t 3 seasons of the same show.
