YES! I named my first dog Jean Luc (R.I.P). Now I have a dog named Riker.

Too bad they killed off Data. Would love to see Brent play Data as an aging robot.
- Wait what?notype
- they killed him in a moviehotroddy
- But we have.... B4...tank02
- Real talk: The writers couldn't figure out a way to explain an android that got fat, so they killed him off.garbage
- Also a random Data factoid: He has a stalker with a youtube channel, and she is batshit insane.garbage

- Posted for posterity only. She's a nutjob that has been obsessed with him and his clone for years now. Oh and she's also Putin's secret girlfriend.garbage
- lol @ android getting faternexbcn
- I never noticed him gaining weight but Dr. Soong was very clever and there could be away for Data to re-emerge in B4.CyBrainX

- The Inner Light. Yes, TNG at its best.tank02

God I just really hope CBS doesn't fuck this up and let Picard become some sanctimonious reflection of our modern ails with off-brand speeches or hyper-obvious social parallel stories, because he's one of the great all-time characters in science fiction.
- Captain Picard was always sanctimonious.jtb26
- ^ No he was on point almost every time and a welcome contrast to Kirk's "cowboy diplomacy".CyBrainX
- I've been wrong about the definition of sanctimonious this whole time. I thought it meant preachy, didn't realize it also meant hypocrite.jtb26
- He was preachy - and I'd expect based on his statement that they will more than likely try to apply Picard's morality in a way that is relevant to society todayjtb26

It'll be him in a futuristic geriatric ward, pissing up walls and telling carers he made number 1 so...

I'm in a stupid status meeting now and haven't even had a chance to watch this but I'm too impatient to wait 10 more minutes.

Yeah, so the character breakdowns for the new Picard show are out cos they're starting casting:

Hi, i_monk.

My best chum was surprised at how non-plussed I was about this, given that much of our friendship was founded decades ago by our love of ST:TNG (and ..er.. cannabis...).
I'm just not giving a shit about TV or Movies in advance, as everything gets so hyper-inflated by expectation (mostly the internet's, not mine) so by the time it comes around I'm often a bit deflated by the reality.
This way, I don't give a shit and if it's good - great, if it's not, bleh.
.
I hope it's good - I wasn't in the 'Discovery is teh evilsss!' camp so unless they've made some serious missteps, I think it'll be fun. Or not, I don't care. I do, obvs.
- I saw the first episode.
It's not ... offensive.
But it's not great, either.Continuity - that first episode of Picard, one minute they're in france, next they're in San Fran, oh look, they're back in france ... stay in one fucking country please!Bluejam
- I saw the first episode.
