I don't want to set your expectations too high, because it's far from perfect, but I thought Picard S3 was basically the good TNG movie that we never received. It was great to see so many of the TNG crew back on screen, and probably for the last time together since they're all in their 70s. The story was mostly good and there were some real high points.

Picard season 3 was pretty great too. I skipped season 2 as I hated season 1. Apparently season 3 just ignores the events of 2 completely because it was that bad.

I get the feeling that he was forced to include Family Guy style jokes in the first series and was allowed to ease up after it was clear that they weren't working.

spoilerWith the exception of that early episode explaining humour to the android character and the engineer wakes up with his leg cut off. That was pretty funny.
