Star Trek: Picard Movie & TV Collection arriving in October
By D. Goodman
In anticipation of the debut of Star Trek: Picard, CBS is releasing a new Blu-ray collection featuring the captain of the Enterprise in October.
Ever since the Star Trek: Picard trailer blew the minds of Trekkers everywhere at San Diego Comic-Con, fans have been planning just how to get ready for the return of the captain of the Enterprise. Old Blu-rays and DVDs have been dusted off and lists of key episodes have been made as a primer for the launch of the series in early 2020.
Well. CBS has heard you and has decided to give you a hand and help you get ready with a brand new Blu-ray collection.
Revealed Monday on Star Trek.com, the Star Trek: Picard Movie & TV Collection gathers some of the former captain’s most well known and popular adventures into a single collection. The six-disc set will include all four Next Generation movies as well as two feature-length television episodes.

This is a set that is obviously squarely aimed at the newer Star Trek fan, possibly ones who joined Trek fandom with Star Trek: Discovery. Most older fans will already own a copy (sometimes multiple copies) of the feature films, although having them collected with a pair of classic Next Generation episodes in a nice touch.
