Did it? Can I skip whatever the bad Seasons were and have it still make sense. Picard was always my favorite captain so I was super bummed when I heard the show was super jaded / gritty / bad.

Season 3 is mostly the TNG crew with some others from earlier Picard seasons. It stands alone well enough. The plot is maybe a 6.5/10, but the fan service and nostalgia is 10/10, and it is a perfect goodbye to the TNG crew.

To me, there is no bad Star Trek.

The new producer took over for season 2. Season 3 is clearly what he imagined 30 years after All Good Things to be like, undoing Generations, and in season 2 he focused on changing the parts of Picard's character that were too major to stuff into season 3.
