I only watched the first season of Picard, but everything I hear about it makes me believe I made the right decision.
If I can offer a counter argument to what others who've replied to you have said, in my opinion, season three of PIC is the single worst season of Star Trek to date. Nothing but empty, cynical fanservice, and the introduction of the worst sort of Scrappy-Doo character in Picard's adult son, Jack Crusher.
People like the season because it's getting the TNG band back together, but the season embodies all the complaints that were levelled at season one, justified or unjustified, but simply has some familiar faces. Slop in a trough.
Season 3 is the worst season of Star Strek, but the best Season of Picard. Picard seasons 1 and 2 were like entirely different shows winking at Star Trek.
Nah, seasons one and two were at least trying something, to varying degrees of success. All season three attempted was cramming its plot so full of nostalgia bait, the audience wouldn’t see just how rotten it was at the core.
I kinda see what Season 1 was trying to do. The only thing Season 2 tried to do was save production budget.
