There were endless moments in season 3 that would have been solved by reaching out to the progressive Borg collective from the season 2 finale. Not to mention that a few character arcs and character development moments that just seem suspiciously absent in season 3. So, is the entirety of season 2 not cannon or am I missing something?
I recently watched it and didn't regret doing so. Picard was way more fun for me than Reddit had me thinking it was going to be.
