With Star Trek: Picard Season 3 starting to stream on February 16th on Paramount+, I spoke with LeVar Burton (Geordi La Forge) and Jonathan Frakes (Commander William Riker) about the new season. During their interview, Burton and Frakes talked about being part of a show that still resonates with so many people 30 years after it first premiered, which episode of the ten-episode third season they’re most excited for fans to see, and why you don’t have to have seen Picard Season 1 and 2 to watch Season 3.

While I know many people were disappointed with the first two seasons of Picard, myself included, I’m pleased to report Picard Season 3 is fantastic and a love letter to Star Trek. I’ve seen the first six episodes and each one raises the stakes and builds the mystery. I can’t wait to see how it’s going to end. For more on the Season 3, you can read Maggie’s glowing review.

Picard Season 3 sees the return of Patrick Stewart in the titular role along with Gates McFadden as Beverly Crusher, Jonathan Frakes as Will Riker, Marina Sirtis as Deanna Troi, Michael Dorn as Worf, LeVar Burton as Geordi La Forge, and Brent Spiner as Lore.

Also returning from the first two seasons of Picard is Jeri Ryan, who originated her role as Seven of Nine on Star Trek: Voyager, and Michelle Hurd as Raffi Musiker. Other incredibly talented newcomers for Season 3 include Amanda Plummer as Vadic, an enemy of Picard's set on destroying the Federation, as well as Ashlei Sharpe Chestnut and Mica Burton as Geordi's daughters Sidney and Alandra La Forge. Outlander's Ed Speleers and 12 Monkeys star Todd Stashwick are set to appear in Season 3—with Speleers joining as a series regular as an associate of Beverly Crusher, while Stashwick plays the new captain of the USS Titan.

Check out what Burton and Frakes had to say in the player above.
