Exactly.

The TNG cast can likely appear, but things get pretty much impossible if they want to reference the Enterprise E, the Nexus, or anything that happened in First Contact, Insurrection, or Nemesis.

Basically, with the exception of Picard himself, they can't touch any characters, concepts, designs, etc. from any of the original Trek series. The most we'd probably get would be vague references to the Enterprise in name only.

So some time has passed and we have no idea what this Rescue Armada was that Picard lead 15 years ago that drove him out of Starfleet???? The plot thickens.

Please don't ruin Jean-Luc for us.
You know what would be cool? To have Q on the show.

The end is only the beginning. Brace yourself for the new CBS All Access Original Series Star Trek: Picard, coming soon.
CBS All Access is shaping up to be a decent streaming service, their Twilight Zone series, this new Star Trek, glad I subbed!

TOS font and a very unoriginal name (although it is the name everyone expected), a bunch of British actors on the cast whom I suspect won't all be playing French people, Alex Kurtzman and Akiva Goldsman at the helm. This is fine.
