Did Picardo ever talk about Voyager?

exodus: that is interesting to know about you. Have you ever had the chance?

I'd prefer not to be involved with such a public thing (that's why I'm a research engineer who mostly works alone either from home or in a basement lab, )

My brother, however, was an amatuer film-maker and quite good at it, too. But even in his movies I always preferred behind-the-scenes work, too. Acting isn't easy.


I'd imagine acting in film is the easiest. Compared to even TV, where you're working all the time with different directors and little time to examine the script.


I can't imagine how hard it must be for stage and theatre actors. Now *that* would be intense. No chance to re-shoot, low pay, little recognition, highly competetive. And lots of memorizing and improvisation. Wow.

Yes, I've applied to many networks.
However, I couldn't afford to do intern work & work my way up to the place where I wanted too be.
I was at a point in my life were I needed a job that paid or I wouldn't have a place to live.

Rats. I'm sorry.

Hawthorne, I don't think it mattered that his fanbase wasn't as big as Mulgrews. What did matter was keeping the audience watching. I'm guessing his fanbase was big enough to warrant keeping him to spite his disgruntled behavior. Once again, it's why Hollywood still puts up with Russell Crowe.

You know, you're right. I'm glad you're around because, quite frankly, I often forget about the male cast members a lot of the time.

Men having dimples goes along way.

Damn, I wish all my debates went this easily.

Inverted dimples in the right spot on a woman aren't that bad either...

As long as the person doesn't mistake them for cottage cheese thighs.


Don't beat me.

Wait, there's not excuse really.

Hell, DS9 had a soft reboot, too. And Enterprise. TNG basically powered the latter three series, like it or not. Even ENT which wasn't even in TNG's century still had the Borg.

There may be something to the idea of three year contracts to start with for the series leads. If I remember right, Stewart's contract was up at the end of season three, which is why it was really suspenseful to the people who knew this as to whether or not they'd bring Picard back after his turn as Locutus.

Every Trek had a soft reboot at some point, essentially.

TOS: They brought in Chekov in season two to attract the younger demographic

TOS movies: TWOK was a visual reboot of TMP, with new uniforms, sets, etc.

TNG: They brought in a new show runner in season three (Piller) which ramped up the quality of the scripts significantly. They also had a few cast shakeups (losing Tasha in season one, Crusher swapped with Pulaski in season two, and back again in season three, Wesley leaving in season 4, etc)

TNG movies: They destroyed the ENT-D and replaced it with a younger, sexier model. Data got emotions, Geordi lost the VISOR

DS9: Worf joined in season four, and they brought in the Defiant and the Dominion in season three to add a bit more 'oomph' to the show

VOY: Adding Seven of Nine and the Borg

ENT: Adding the Xindi arc, and the MACOS

Or cottage cheese cheeks. (Repeat 10x fast).

......

They brought in Chekov for the young? I thought was supposedto attract the lucrative demographic of Soviet ex-pats spying — er, practicing diplomacy — in the USA.


Of course, I wouldn't know: I have next to no knowledge of TOS. I think I've only seen one episode in its entirety (the one about the malevolent computer). I have seen the scene on Vulcan in "Amok Time" a few times, for some reason. Seems every time TOS is on TV, it's "Amok Time" or "Balance of Terror". I've seen a few parts of the latter as well.

I didn't even know who Scotty was, for I'm used to seeing him in the movies or in "Relics". He looked a lot different in TOS. And I can't even picture Chekov at all (except from STXI).

All that comes to mind is something about finding "nuclear wessels".
