Oh geez no let Picard finally rest! Have they never heard of ending something while leaving people wanting more, rather than dragging them on like the Simpsons?
Not sure the frailty was put on, I remember seeing him on "have I got news" a while before the Picard series and his voice was laboured and croaky even then. I'd love him to stick around in the world longer than Twatner at least, but i dunno...
Bringing back Avery Brooks, well now you're talking. If only...
