Tea, Earl Gray...HOT!

I'm so glad they have saved the character's reputation in the new series. Those previous two series were junkfood

The machine that fixes the ship and is powered by imagination was too much. Ditto for Picard's consciousness being uploaded into an android

Something almost, but not quite entirely unlike Earl Grey, hot.

But one day he accidentally orders just "Earl Grey, hot", and out comes an English aristocrat in a gimp suit.
SilentShift
Better results than that time someone accidentally reclassified "Hot" to be about the temperature around a star. Ruined the taste a bit.
Theory89
Fun fact: like any sensible Englishman, Patrick Stewart detests Earl Grey (his favourite is Yorkshire, where he's from)
wiggadewah
(Classic English stereotype warning) Since he's portraying a Frenchman, that explains why he orders it!
Lmao too true. Do they ever actually explain his French name but British accent?
Picard is French and even has a brother that runs the family vineyard in France; Robert Picard portrayed by Jeremy Kemp from Yorkshire. ¹/²
Robert Picard doesn't have a French accent either. I don't recall it ever being addressed.

They made the real villains parasites because Gene did not want Starfleet to be portrayed as being corrupt in a real sense.

Seconds earlier:
CapCap
Did they ever do anything with this storyline? It was billed as a big Starfleet threat but went nowhere.
TheNewYorkWolf
Still waiting to see if Picard Season 3 has anything to do with the numbing bugs…
There’s a small follow up in Star Trek Adventures, but nothing cannon.
akefay
They tested poorly with the audience. They'd set things up for the signal to have called their soldiers (outposts destroyed at end of S1). ½
but because ppl didn't like the little claymation bastards they turned the soldier drones into the Borg and had Q introduce them instead.
TychoTychoAlba
There were writers strikes and production costs and in the end they turned out as the borg.
Looks a bit like the plot in the new Picard
Ok what is this. I say anything about Picard and I get downvoted, every time. Are we a fucking hive mind now or something?! If we dislike...
everyone who disagrees with us about inconsequential shit then we're gonna be fucked as a society.
LicensedAdHominem
Hey, we're not all like this. For example, I downvoted you purely because you're whiny!
BlackCatCasper
I thought that’s there this season was going since even Vadic’s ship looks like them but no.
I’m still holding out hope that it’s changelings AND nubbin bugs.
I thought that’s where it was going but it’s just changelings again.
TheLesserOfTwoWeevils
Quite happy seeing changelings again given how long the franchise has ignored Ds9.
HonestCommentFarmer
Basically no. There was a sidequest in Star Trek Online with them, but they've always been the most forgotten plot point of the franchise.
Lonecoon
Weren't the borg supposed to be these sort of bugs but technological horrors looked better?
Trisar
Looked better and were more budget friendly. Despite the Borg debut episode going comically over-budget.
Ryanator50
STO is great for forgotten plotlines.
Pokegeologist
If I remember right, they switched gears and went with the Borg instead. The Federation and Romulan colonies that went missing was set up
originally for their storyline.

Always bugged me that he didn't assign a shortcut and the default should be hot anyway you should have to specify cold if you wanted it.

Tea, Earl Grey, Plasma
"Replicator, fire up the loud." *replicator creates hot tea*
Iced Tea is a thing.
Sure but the most common type should be the default instead of having to specify the temperature each time. Or just yell macro 1 etc.
eadanke
"My usual please" and why isn't the replicator at the desk instead of on the wall?
The replicator is part of the ship. The desk isn’t. Also when it explodes you wouldn’t want to release the rocks on the captain’s desk.
minant
My head-canon is that it used to be a sort of tree menu, so you'd select tea, then Earl Grey from the list of teas, and then hot under that.
/ And now the computer doesn't require you to specify it like that, but Picard's used to it and doesn't have to change.
throwaway12345432
Hot would be dangerous and require consent. Also, what is hot exactly? What is cold? How does the machine know what each person means by hot
Megamastermetamememaker
You think that in 300 yrs from now a replicator with 1 PByte of memory and AI couldn't handle this?...
GborCseh
considering I can say "Okay google, Lets start the day" and google will start my coffee pot and play the morning news. yeah
Plus the ships onboard sensors know who is standing in front of each replicator so can tailor the settings to that person.
hell, take it one step further, put a medical tricorder right into the replicator, and it'll give you what you crave/need
DrKriegersClone
They might not use AI in the food prep in the future if nobody gets the 'adding extra fingers' bugs sorted out by then.
Maybe you assign the temperatures you want when setting it up.
The NCC-1701-D held a combined crew and passenger count of 1012 people, are you suggesting we poll everyone onboard to get their desired hot
No, you would have personal preferences for the device for each user. Especially since it would need to accommodate none humans.
With the crew they could maybe tie it to their starfleet personnel file I guess. But how to handle civilians and guests?
