Yes. I've only watched the first episode, but all I could think was, "Read the energy, dude." A little too excitable during that interview.
Just to reiterate, the set for this looks like total garbage. It looks like public access TV, ca 1983. Awful. I find it hard to watch. They should have made the set actually look like a (stylized) ready room, fer fuck's sake.
They had a great one in After Trek and should just reuse it That's accurate. Where do you read negativity here? Have you seen Matt Mira on After Trek, particularly the first episode? XD
Yay, the Facebook video app on my fire tv stick seems to work now. Still a terrible app, but more convenient than pc or phone. During Disco series 2 it would never load. Can't wait for next episode.
Nonsense. He's channeling the excitement for this show that all of us TNG fans who are in our late 40s+ have. Keep it coming! Give it a rest. He's fine. Don't forget HWoopi Goldberg ("All the time!").
I appreciate his enthusiasm, especially as it comes from someone who was on the inside. I wonder if he'll get Sir Pat for one of them?
Each of us shares their own opinion on his hosting style. Some like his energy levels, some do not. (I notice there's not hate of his levels, only dislike.)
Dude's almost 50 years old, geeking out gushing over some old patch and talking like he just drank a crate of Monster and chased it with some amphetamines is a bit much to take.
Mmm, I don't know. I'm 40 (in 2 months), still love Star Trek and would gladly gush about it, I wear rainbow shoes, love unicorns, and if I could get away with a giant glittering fruit hat I would wear it. It also helps that I am the absolute peak of professionalism at all times.
I love The Ready Room with Will Wheaton! His enthusiasm strikes me as a bit over the top but sincere, and the guests are really giving insightful interviews. It doesn't feel like some Entertainment Tonight P.R. time-killer like many of these after-shows do.
Well, Michael Chabon has a Pulitzer, Nebula, Hugo and an O. Henry award. I'm sure his treatment was brilliant. Also, Picard so far has a very British feel to me considering what we've seen via BBC America over the past few years. Though Chabon is from Washington, D.C. it seems to me he was probably more outside the Hollywood box and had a more global perspective. I'm guessing.
He seems like he's just happy to be back working with the group of beloved people he used to work with, in a franchise he still loves. I think for most of us that would be a dream job.
Is Ready Room available on Amazon Prime? I'm subscribed to the CBSAA channel and can watch Picard but Ready Room is no where to be found.
