Riker's beard was fake?

[Sulu]

I read somehwere recently that RIker's beard was stick on. Is that a rumour or fact?

roumor Jonathan Frakes grew it while the show was off season and he kept it or al least thats what I heard.

Strange how I clicked on the Sulu nick and it lead to the bio of the poster answering the question.

Sprung.

 

[Sulu]

How can we be sure?

 

[Therin of Andor]

How can we be sure?

Because you just did it again?

 

[Sulu]

Just because we have no footage of him peeling it off and sticking it back on again doesn't mean the rumour is an unqualified one.

Uhh... Because it went gray in real life

He may have planned ahead...

We know because Frakes said that he grew it during the break between the first and second seasons. No reason he'd make that up.

Gah! That last photo of Frakes looks like Shatner with a beard!

 

[Mr. Adventure]

Deanna was real.

 

[R. Star]

There is that scene in DS9's Defiant where he peels part of it off.

 

[Orac]

Sisko's beard in Explorers looked fake.

 

[TEACAKE'S PLEATHER DOME]

Deanna was real.

 

[Holdfast]

Deanna was real.

In other news, I don't believe Sulu will be returning (at least in his present incarnation) so I may as well close his thread.

Nice work with the amusing replies though.
