You really should have put all the clips where Picard asks for suggestions and worf says "I recommend we attack" and they say no.
*Seemingly hostile aliens appear* Picard trying to build up his officers by making them participate: "I want options" Worf, still somehow hopeful: "attack" Picard: "no, not like that"
nothing beats Patrick high and in a lobster costume giving acting lessons to a hottie.
Rofl!! Sooo right!!
Isn't there like a 13 min video of Worf getting denied already. Hilarious
Kinda like shax where every time they are in trouble he suggests ejecting the warp core
I once went to a Star Trek convention that had Doctor Crusher's actress. When she was on stage she said something along the lines of "Let's talk about how Doctor Crusher was a single mother, who was strong and intelligent, and for some reason fell in love with a lamp????" Completely unprompted.
What make me wonder is the romance between Crusher and Picard was forced or not? Because tbh it felt kinda out of the blue. Like it's required for everyone to be paired with someone in that ship.
I don't think it felt forced, more awkward. Picard and her husband were best friends before his death but they obviously had feelings for each other that would just be wrong given how close they were. That and the whole fraternising with the crew thing.
*Gates McFadden
That episode was so crazy, when I told my partner (who doesn't like sci-fi) she asked me which DVD it was on so she could watch it!
3rdalbum It’s in Season 7... Episode 14: Sub Rosa. It’s one of my favorite episodes because it’s just funny. Crusher acts like she’s on crack...
Riker just mounting everything from chairs to aliens😂😂😂
'Engage!' 💨
😂🤣
It is obvious that the writers intended for him to inherit Kirk's womanizing characteristics.
He’s a mount’n man
@@perfectsplit5515 Yeah, but his iconic leg pose is actually from a injury He messed up his leg and it was easier for him to keep one leg up when standing for a long time So he put his spin on Kirk 👍 I prefer a commander who is level headed, and a possible renegade first officer Any other way and it feels like corruption in the system
Sorry, but the kid who played young Picard (also played his nephew) did really well. Really conveyed a sense of authority and frustration with his situation. Also that scene where he was admiring his hair hits home for some of us.
Yeah, but he sounded like a muppet
true
I love that episode!
Having first watched this when I was a kid, I think it might just be my favourite episode!
That was a good episode, when they turned into kids.
*Entire bridge crew is being electrocuted* Casual Riker: "Red alert."
Protocol must be maintained
THERE'S A BORG CUBE 1000 METERS AWAY.... CONFERENCE!
I think that was my favorite moment from the trailer
@@Jalgorn we needed to stock up on EXPLODIUM at the nearest starbase after that.
It was the first season. And one of the worst episodes of the first season.
In Troi's defense, a future where I can't be openly and obnoxiously in love with chocolate is a future I don't want to see.
Preach!
I don't want a universe without chocolate.
Some things are stereotypes for a reason. lol
To be fair I think the scene is from one of the many episodes where the crew goes batshit
msgreek mythgeek Great name!
Worf was head of security and not once did anyone take his advice or listen to him. Worf: "It is too dangerous" Picard: "Do it"
Sometimes Picard agrees to a yellow alert to make him feel needed. :)
There was that one time though. When Worf didn't want to give the romulans a new computer. So Riker threw him a bone, and suggested giving them a seventy year old one they already had specs for. And Worf looks back at Riker and says "Thank you sir 😊"
Worf should have come back later and told Picard, “Capt. Sisko actually listened to my suggestions. You remember Capt. Sisko don’t you? He’s the guy you turned into a single father when you killed his wife at the Battle of Wolf 359.”
@@yemo34The Next Phase "We're dead, Geordi." "We have to make peace with our former lives."
Love the clip where Picard requests Arbitration. The whole scene is him finding a way to force the alien species he's talking to, to force them to let him do what he wants. The alternative is that "Arbitration" he's requesting, which even THEY don't have the patience for (he requested arbitration from a species that is currently in hibernation). I get what it LOOKS like here, but it is quite funny and fun to watch.
LOVE that scene. They were jerking him around all episode and then he finally gets them and cuts off communication just to make them wait, brushes dust off the plague... Felt so good lol.
The whole scene is hilarious and awesome. IIRC, he also hung up on them, too.
the moment where he decides to do a little housekeeping is comedy gold.
Riker: you enjoyed that Picard: you’re damn right After three days trying to negotiate? It was a fantastic moment that benefitted greatly from Dianna and Riker unable to contain their glee. Funny here out of context, better in the show with its context ❤
Totally one of the most BADASS Picard moments for me... running a finger along the surface of the model ship and inspecting for dust...😆That was probably the moment I realized I liked him way better than Kirk.
'who remained comitted to his dialogue even when the writers fell asleep on their keyboard.' Thanks for that, I haven't laughed this hard in weeks.
Right? Try and watch the show now without imagining some person asleep at their desk and drooling on the keyboard during scenes with alien languages. 😂
In the parts where he speaks to Klingons, he is actually speaking the language that Gene Rodenberry created for that species. Google it.
Ricardo Cordoba It’s a joke dude. No one is being serious. 🤦🏼♂️
What's true is true. But my favorite was 'Man, being civilized is boring'.
That was great. A compliment to Stewart while poking fun at the show.
Poor Worf. Built up as the strong man just so he could get his ass kicked to prove how powerful bad guy after bad guy was.
OneColdMonkey lol he gave as much as he got on many occasions tho lol
He does take out a Borg with a batleth in First Contact.
OneColdMonkey and later he became chief of security
DS9 Worf > TNG Worf
That's why I felt Worf worked much better on Deep Space Nine than on TNG. There we actually saw him use his skills in combat, explore his diplomat skills in bringing together Starfleet and the Klingon Empire and engaging interactions with other characters (Gen. Martok, Sisko, Jadzia, etc.). It helped that DS9 had - in my opinion - a rich cast of supporting characters that were both good and bad, so Worf's presence fit right in.
That Cardassian joke gets me everytime I watch this.
I watch this honest trailer specifically for that Cardassian/Kardashian joke.
Rumor is that they are named after them.
"Leather skinned" fits the Kardashians way more than the Cardassians.
My Dad's been making that joke basically since he learned about the Kardashians.
1:08 "Oh man being civilized is boring." *Plays clip of one of Picard's most badass diplomatic flexes.*
Right, I think that's way more interesting than two dudes fighting.
I watched this trailer while in the middle of binging the show. The next episode I watched, Ryker had to take command because Picard wasn't available. Someone told him he would have to "be Picard" the first thing he did was sit down and pull down the front of his shirt. I lost it.
Me too. Im simultaneously watching this and voyager
😂😂
Omg pls provide the episode number
That's "Best of Both Worlds, part II", season four, episode one. Awesome episode.
@@mishakellie5549 Deep space nine is fucking spectacular. It takes a little while to get good, but the last two seasons especially have some of the best TV I have ever seen. Definitely don't be put off by how different it is, being on a space station rather than a space ship. It is very much Star Trek and very good.
Watching the series I notice they rarely go Warp 9, a notable time they did was when Picard wanted to get Deanna Troi’s mother off the ship.
I never go 88 miles per hour either. I usually crusie 65-75 mph on hwys.
2BitUser Fair, but a lot of the time they’re running from an enemy.
lol. I think it's ridiculous when there's and episode when people are dying and they only go warp 7. But its hilarious how badly he wanted Lwaxanna off the ship
i seem to remember some episode where they say something about higher warp speeds creating some dangerous space something. I don't remember exactly but i feel like that was the plot to an episode
@@N0THANKY0U It was. They gave a report that said the sustained use of high warp speeds was creating tears in space. But they never mention it again.
Fun fact: Jonathan Frakes is one of very few actors who actually knows how to play the instrument (in his case the trombone) his character does.
He does play, but a lot of the time it's not him in the final audio. It's Bill Watrous.
And yet Ryker is still not cool.
Seems to me he's also a pretty good player of the sexual organ.
@@David-iv6je You take that back.
@@optillian4182 LOL. Only cool in some sort of insecure male fantasy. He exudes creepy. Oh, and played by a bad actor.
Brent Spiner playing three different characters in one scene was pretty badass.
In mask he gets possessed by a magical mask and he plays like 5 different characters.
@@thefantasyreview8709 In "A Fistful of Datas" he plays gosh knows how many characters!
"..Even when the writers clearly fell asleep on their keyboards." That absolutely kills me every time I rewatch this.
To be fair, if you had the ability to make Patrick Stewart say anything, wouldn’t you go all in?
@@hypnotisedpenguin LOL!! Good point!
Agreed
Me too, but not because it's true, but that the narrator believed it was true. Which is honestly kinda sad. There's a whole universe out there y'all, enjoy it.
10 min after I heard that sentence and the following cuts ... I still couldn't articulate enough to reassure my wife I was okay. I literally rolled on the floor laughing in tears. 🤣
"the most british frenchman" that joke is way funnier to me then it should
It's true though 😂
I had to stop the video for a minute because I was laughing too hard at that.
Lol! Had me cracking up a lot.
Yeah didn't you know Britain conquered France in WWIII, thus why a frenchman speaks with a British accent.
Aaron Smith Britain conquered practically every country within a radius of the earth tbh 😂
Ah seriously Picard handling Sareks emotions is quite literally the best performance in the entire series. In fact, I cant name a better acting performance at all
Klingons kling on to the side of the toilet bowl
Agreed
DONT YOU TELL ME WHAT TO DO! Great acting but I feel like the episode gets overlooked a lot.
Wrong. - There are FOUR lights!
nah, his face after saying mr brocolli is the best performance imo
Worf yelling at Wesley "ENOUGH!" after everybody has told him to shut up, even his own mother is pure hilarious comedy gold, I laughed tears xD
Q: Why did the chicken cross the road? Worf: I do not know. Klingon chickens do not cross roads.
Data: Ah, a joke. Was it funny? I cannot understand humor myself, because I am an android.
Troi: I can't read that chicken's mind. So I will wear another braless body hugging dress to keep our young audience from switching the channel.
Wesley: ... Everyone: SHUT UP, WESLEY!
the chicken joke was actually originally a suicide joke, the other side refers to the afterlife. So why did the chicken cross the road, because he trying to kill himself.
Why did the chicken want to commit suicide? Because people kept using the word "ironically" wrong.
The best of Worf's lines: "I am NOT a merry man!"
No his best his line in the DS9 episode Trial and tribulations where upon the crew seeing 23 century Klingons he says: “We do not talk about it.”
@@rainross5525 Then they were merry men!
BE QUIET!! *smashes lute*
" Good Tea, Nice House. "
"Death to the opposition"
Idk why " A hybrid between a cutting edge space battleship and a Marriott convention center " made me laugh so hard
"I've always believed that having children aboard a starship was a very questionable policy."
Fun fact: The Riker maneuver is because Johnathan Frakes has a serious back injury that makes it difficult for him to stand for long periods, and limits his flexibility when doing things like sitting in chairs.
Source?
It's a popular belief, but Frakes himself has denied it in interviews. He did have moderate back problems, but claims the maneuver was an acting choice.
It screws with blocking to constantly move set furniture. Directors who act seem to be more conscious of this.
bro hes tall AF and those look like kindergarden chairs
The Picard maneuver is because the uniforms rode up.
you forgot -- "LOTS OF EPISODES WHERE THE WRITERS GET LAZY AND JUST MAKE ANOTHER HOLODECK GONE WRONG EPISODE!"
WAY more of those on Voyager
And way more time travel in Voyager too
The recurring holodeck disaster episodes are so funny. Hey, should we take out this feature that tries to murder the crew every 2.7 uses? Nah, it's fun to go on picnics.
Hey, those episodes are awesome. =P Especially since they let them do things you couldn't normally have in Star Trek.
But if this episode Broccoli participates, I kinda like it
*"I'M A TRAINED SHAKESPEAREAN ACTOR AND I'M STOOD HERE TALKING TO THE LEADER OF THE FUCKING WORM PEOPLE!"* Patrick Stewart, between takes.
To be fair though, his proficiency in made up alien gargle-noise languages is astounding.
Macephtopheles good one Frankie Boyle
Gotta love Frankie Boyle.
I find it hilarious that he actually used the word "klaxon", which, in the script, probably just stood for a klaxon type of sound

My hands down favorite part of Star Trek : The Next Generation is towards the end of the series when Picard is off the Enterprise so they have a different captain altogether and Troi tries to give her opinion to him and he asks why she's not in uniform. Then like literally for the rest of the series Troi is always in her uniform even when Picard gets back I just found it hilarious that she got in trouble with her boss over her uniform like honestly the most relatable part of NG if you ask me.
Marina Sirtis actually always wanted to wear a uniform. It's funny that her character gets ordered to wear a uniform when in fact the actress was constantly made to NOT wear one.
It’s too bad. I missed Counselor Cleavage once she covered up.
@@singleproppilot her outfit in the first episode is hot too.
Captain Jelico kicked arse. Negotiate with the Cardassians called their bluff and got Picard back.
@@singleproppilot hell nah not counselor cleavage
THERE... ARE... FOUR... LIGHTS! Still one of the most powerful moments in TV history.
"You are only five years old!"
But but but... what about "IIIIIIIII'm Captain Kirk!!" (0:41)
My best episode was when the captain Pikard was probed by a satelite from a dead civilisation and live a whole life on there planet in an hour of the Enterprise time. He has a wife, children, grand-children and friends and see the end of there world. The little song that he play on his pipe always make me cry a little. That was great acting :)
Star Trek: The Next Generation - S5E25 The Inner Light
Yes, it's regarded as one of the best episodes on the show
It is also my favorite episode. It is so touching to see Picard through a new perspective. At the end I feel he is changed, he has finally lived the family life about which he wonders in some episodes.
When he plays the flute at the end.... Such a good episode.
If I recall correctly, the director of The Inner Light is the only one who directed episodes of both the original series and the Next Generation.
I wonder what Riker would do if he ever ran into a chair with a back so high that he could not get his leg over it
Simple. He would jump over it.
He would get it pregnant... Because he's riker!
The episode would just be of him.. trying. To. Get. His. Leg. Over. The. Damn. Chair.
It's been established that Riker can almost always 'get his leg over'.... :D
Lmfao
😂😂😂😂 the Riker manoeuvre had me in stitches. I’d never noticed until clips were played back to back. This must have taken a hell of a long time to cut those scenes though. Worth it 👍
I'm waiting for someone to make a Bi joke based solely on the weird way he sits in chairs
Totally. I almost fell off of the chair, laughing.
Once you know it you notice it every time lol It actually is because Frakes has some type of permanent back issue, and being tall and with low chair backs it was easiest for him to do that
Same here. Never noticed until I saw this. Hilarious.
Me too. Watched every episode in reruns multiple times and never picked up on the Riker maneuver. Amazing.
Q is easily the best Star Trek character ever. The scene with him and the mariachi band totally encapsulates everything that makes him awesome.
I heard that!
Right behind Garak!
@@Iason29 Him being annoying is what made it interesting tho
Is Elon Musk based on Q?
He's like the Mr. Mxyzptlk of Star Trek.
Captain Jean-Luc Picard: The greatest British Frenchman in the galaxy!
Well.... if the shoe fits! 8-)
EXCELLENT TEA.
Does that mean he is canadian ? :D
@@godwrote01 good one ;-)
"the Riker Maneuver" LMFAO I can't believe I never noticed that before!
Jesus christ. Please tell your bosses in fluidic space that if they gonna impersonate trekkies, at least get the basics down. smh
He did it because he had massive back pain and that was the only comfortable way for him to sit down
There is a compilation video "Riker sits down" and my favorite comment is "Riker doesn't sit, he mounts" and it's so on point I just can't
I’ve watched this entire series and never noticed it hahaha
Omg same I never did either
The Sheliak scene wasn't boring! It was the most exciting scene I ever saw anyone say "Then I must declare this treaty in abeyance." 😂
And pretty funny, too, with Picard passive-aggressively dusting the plaque like that.
@@natesmodelsdoodles5403 It was hilarious. The entire concept of Sheliak and the way they kept putting them down was great
What still amazes me is the sheer number of different writers and directors for all the episodes and how they still tell a cohesive story in the same style. If you tried to do something like that today, one episode would be like blade runner and the next would be like a transformers explosion fest.
Black Mirror comes to my mind.
@@CristianKlein Not that you asked but I hated Black Mirror, I made it through one and a half episodes that were top rated. It thinks it's edgy but it's not if risque content is what's popular now. I prefer Twilight Zone, including some of the episodes in the recent series, they make you think rather than depressed.
Mock it if you want, but "THERE ARE FOUR LIGHTS!" was still a powerful moment.
One of the most powerful. I can't imagine anybody mocking it.
Inner light also powerful episode.
Yes. Kim and the Kardashians were really turning the screws on poor Picard 😎
Who’s mocking it?
And straight out of Orwell (Nineteen Eighty Four). "How many fingers do you see?"
"The Riker Maneuver" caught me by surprise and I now have tears running down my face from laughing so hard. That is one of your finest moments Honest Trailers!
thought Riker maneuver was to Bone as many female (or female looking aliens) as Possible.
Breaking freedom i've never noticed Riker's style to sit, am i blind?? damn this honest trailer almost makes me want to re-watch the whole series ^^
That, and palm punches.
Riker also pulled the Picard Maneuver all the time too (pulling his shirt down). Those uniforms looked incredibly uncomfortable.
That was the highlight for me too!
I'm a lifelong Trekkie and watch this at least 3 times a year - still laugh every single time.
If you hear the whole "boring" scene where Picard "owns" the Sheliak it's actually a very interesting and clever scene. Other that this was pretty accurate.
To be fair, Data only drops that he's an android when he's directly asked about it
I m a n A n d r o i d
@@thereisalwaysarainbowafter1364 Um...you're a phone?
Same with most Vegans if we're being honest.
@@ThanatoselNyx Same with the Alpha Lyrans.
No, Data will drop that line any time people get awkward around him. He does this in Encounter at Farpoint and Insurrection off the top of my head, probably others.
That writers fell asleep on their keyboard bit had me rollin'. Good one guys
Hey! You inspired me to make a song about cabbage, I've uploaded it to my channel & I'd love to hear what you think about it :)
"We're nearly merged now." Seriously I dare anyone to say this right before climaxing.🤣
Say it while wearing a superhero mask! 🤣
"It's in. Can you tell?"
@@BoloBouncer "It's hard to tell, I sense nothing"
I’ve recently started watching TNG and I must say it’s better than I expected. Absolute fan.
Greatest sci-fi show of all time. With the most iconic sci-fi spaceship of all time.
You forgot the holodeck, where we're expected to believe only one guy in 7 seasons used it to pork facsimiles of his hot co-workers.
Justin Baker IRK?!?! Only *one* guy has holodeck addiction and not every person on the ship!! Lol you know *everyone* would be banging *everyone* on the holodeck. Cuz if that tech existed, me and Idris Elba would be getting it *OOONNNNN* and no I'm not ashamed to admit that.
Justin Baker And Geordie, who didn't use it for sex... just harmless creeping...
Justin Baker I would do deplorable things if I had access to a holo-deck, it would be incredible.
I mean, I know what *I* would do in a ho...nvm.
And they acted like what he did wasn't normal. Forget Sherlock Holmes LARPing, let me get sum succ.
Patrick Stewart is an international treasure.
KingOfMadCows Apparently hes a pile shit to sony.
You can piss off. He was born 10 miles from me. He's an English/Yorkshire treasure at most. You can't have him.
in every quadrant
One of the greats. A great actor and a very great man.
Hey! You inspired me to make a song about cabbage, I've uploaded it to my channel & I'd love to hear what you think about it :)
"Even if the writers clearly Fell asleep on the keyboard" legendary.
I cant believe how far down I had to swipe before your comment. 👍
You remembered to put Riker walking over chairs to sit in them, but you forgot to put him sticking his foot up on everything
Did you know he did both those things because he has a bad back? Jonathan Frakes injured his back when he had a job moving furniture, and that makes standing up long times and moving in certain ways difficult for him. So they made leaning on things and sitting down with his back straight part of his character, so he could focus on acting while having some support. He is a trooper!
that kardashian/cardassian joke was brilliant but you forgot to even mention the most important character: Spot! and the amazing piece of poetry it gave to us: Ode to Spot
or the fact that Spot was a Changling, as Spot started out as a MALE cat but gave birth in season 6 or 7.
OMG! Maybe it was Odo from DS9!
Felis catus is your taxonomic nomenclature, An endothermic quadruped, carnivorous by nature; Your visual, olfactory, and auditory senses Contribute to your hunting skills and natural defenses. I find myself intrigued by your subvocal oscillations, A singular development of cat communications That obviates your basic hedonistic predilection For a rhythmic stroking of your fur to demonstrate affection. A tail is quite essential for your acrobatic talents; You would not be so agile if you lacked its counterbalance. And when not being utilized to aid in locomotion, It often serves to illustrate the state of your emotion. O Spot, the complex levels of behavior you display Connote a fairly well-developed cognitive array. And though you are not sentient, Spot, and do not comprehend, I nonetheless consider you a true and valued friend.
@merdufer Well played sir/madam, well played indeed!
I never noticed the Riker maneuver until now. So true
Homemadegameguru No one does until it's pointed out to them... which makes me so see who first spotted it id you can't spot it with our it being pointed out....
The Riker lean is pretty noticeable. Putting his foot up on the damn consoles :P
Jonathan Frakes is 6'4" fairly tall but not super tall. I am 6'3" and could and have done the Riker maneuver on occasion but frankly it is kind of awkward and silly. Plus most of the time it makes him look like a tool.
I had notices the Picard maneuver but not Riker. It's so obvious now!
6'4" is about 1% of men in developed countries. So, yes, I'd call that super tall. But yeah, being tall doesn't make it not look stupid.
The Marriott convention center line gets me every time 😂😂😂 bravo 👏👏👏
I liked the episode where he used the aliens’ own strict adherence to rules to outwit them and save the day. Boring? Nah. ❤️
When you play against Captain Picard, you play against the best.
only patrick stewtart could make yelling "there are 4 lights!" sound like the most epic thing ever.
Watch Nineteen Eighty Four before watching this episode. The similarities with John Hurt in the Room 101 scene is striking
I got the chills when I saw it air originally.
Well it's the meaning around it that counts.
Stewtart what does that taste like?
I think Leonard Nimoy would have probably worked. Maybe, I dunno. Valcans ARE harder to break... what do you think?
What about the episode where the enterprise runs into an IT problem and their solution is to turn it off and turn it back on again?
That plot was part of Jurassic Park too
Have ye troid twurning it off and on again?
In fairness, it was the 80s. The writers were probably still using typewriters.
@@shininginshadows The writer was a computer technician. Even on first transmission I spent the whole episode rationalising that they _couldn't_ just wipe and reinstall, only to find at the end that they _could._
@@epiendless1128 Lmao me too. I thought they didn’t have a backup or that they couldn’t turn it off without killing everyone, but I guess not.
No one: Wesley: *Says anything* Everyone: Shut up Wesley!
🤷♂️
The most replayed moment in this video is when Troi' shows up at the door in a white gown. I'm shocked...downright SHOCKED, I tell you.
HOTTTTT
I'd like to see Honest Trailers for Deep Space Nine and Voyager.
God yes!
Voyager would be hysterical
ALL OF MY YES PLEASE
I’d also love one for The Original Series.
Starring- the first female captain -a leader of rebels who was under utilized and never even mutinied until the fans begged the writers to retcon it into the 7th season. - a minority Vulcan who was thankfully not given a million black cliches like sisko - a rebel who the writers renamed to save a few bucks from the episode The First Duty -a sentient computer program (because it is not like that has gone wrong before) -a half Borg who is more or less there to look pretty and give us another non human character to better explore our humanity -a half Klingon who needs to be my girlfriend -a telekinetic child who the writers never developed -a weird resident of the delta quadrant who skills involve cooking and irritating people -also starring way too much time travel -a Robert Beltran who was given so few good episodes in the last 3 seasons that his annoyance is literally visible in the final products -way too many seven of nine episodes -an underutilization of the Borg, by watering them down in some episodes and by never exploring their origins -an attempt to make the kazon actually seem threatening by having Neelix call them the Kazon 'collective' -a million lost opportunities to get home. -and about 150 background actors who never remain consistent during their journey back to earth
I'm kinda disappointed that you didn't mention the transporter technology that transports you wherever you want except when it doesn't.
Or what about the Holodeck that's supposed to be for recreation until it malfunctions, putting lives in danger?
@@JavaPugsMom Oh, yes. The holographic technology that has safety protocols (mortality failsafes) which can always be switched off by anything dangerous that unexpectedly appears therein.
Nikita Elizarov “We haven’t had a transporter accident in years!!!” ...really??? You had one last week!!!
or that needs the pads in the transporter room - except when they need to do a site-to-site transport ;)
Yea in several episodes characters are adamant about how safe the transporter is; in one they even cite than there have only been three accidents in the last 50 years or something, yet it seems to happen every few episodes
What I love most about these is that they still have the most utmost respect for the show 😂
Hopefully there's a slightly better Universe out there, where Brent Spiner got the amazing Career he deserved.
Yeah... Spiner is amazing. He is able to do so much.
I love his acting too. Sadly, he's also rumored to be very difficult to work with (particularly at conventions).
The dude did movies and multiple series of trek.
He's lived a pretty good life
I totally agree with you. Spiner's performance is my favorite.
Next Generation was definitely the most intellectual series so far. It was passionately ideologic, it displayed essentialy a humanist dream inspired by the rapid development of technology in the last two centuries. Perhaps it is more a depiction of the present and its expectations and desires than of the future. We can all aspire to the ideals of Picard.
Didn't they win an Emmy once for "best depiction of the American society?" Lol. But seriously, a documentary "the History of Science Fiction" said that ST is one of the most successful science fiction franchises ever created, AND THE ONLY *utopian* sci-fi franchise, where federation people, barring insanity, are basically always kind and well meaning to one another. I wish modern screen writers and directors would take notice!

This is utterly hilarious (and true) and even better when you've heard some of the actors THEMSELVES say these things in person. For example, I remember seeing Michael Dorn at a con and _he_ talked about the "beat up Worf" trope, on stage. Imagine "Here is my first officer Worf; would you like to beat him up?" in that voice. It was amazing. XD
4:05 Well, there is a panel in conventions now called Keeping Up with the Cardassians. You’re welcome. ;)
Whatever you do, don't search Kim Cardassian on Google Images.
@@Kentololable I did. I regret it
Geordi: "I wouldn't be surprised if history remembers this as the Riker Maneuver." Riker: "... If it works!"
"Computer: extent Manual steering column!" *Giant dick rises up*
Holy crap, I made the mistake of taking a sip of my coffee a moment before "the Riker maneuver" and just about choked. Also, is it possible to NOT get chills when you hear, "There Are....FOUR Lights!" Glad to see that Darmok & Jalad at Tanagra were too sacred to make light of in this one. Well done!
I start reciting Darmok when someone is is speaking incoherently. It's fantastic when the incoherent person is clueless but while someone else within earshot knows the reference.
I actually like the episode where Picard turns into a kid.
Yeah, not a favorite of mine, but I didn't mind it. I think Guinan's character helped make it decent.
I'm pretty sure that kid who played young Picard also played Picard's nephew in the episode in which Picard visits his brother in France.
"Counselor Troi: an empath who can always tell when someone is lying, except when she can't." LOL
Then goes all out brat when she loses her empathetic powers.
You forgot one Klingon fun fact: They are NOT merrymen!
also: they never played with boys
Klingons don’t faint
Klingons respec wahmen, except for when they don't.
To be fair, Troi's "I sense nothing" was because she temporarily lost her empathetic abilities when the ship collided with a massive patch of 2-dimensional entities that hampered her mind.
The point was 50% of the time there is something blocking her abilities, especially when said abilities would break the plot.
That was one episode (the loss)
@@DrewPicklesTheDark she's too OP for the writers own good, it's either that or "it's hard to tell, but he's hiding something" or "he's holding something back"
The Loss was actually a fantastic episode.
They were also inconsistent about whether Betazoids could read Ferengi.
30 years later is now in Netflix Remastered and is an amazing series. 175 episodes 7 seasons. It makes you at the end a better human!
"The most british frenchman in the entire galaxy" LMAO!!
The Annoying Tourist lmao ikr, I don't even know how they decided to use an English actually for a French character.....But Muh space Logic.....
Do you know how long it took for that to hit me? I'd been watching TNG for years and was suddenly like "...wait..."
in the 24th century accents will be all over the place
I've literally been saying this for years.
It's not just Picard, every single character from his home town speaks with the same RP British accent. Apparently in the future, we finally conquered France.
"the most british Frenchman in television history." I love how Patrick stewart didn't even try to act or sound French.
Picard was a descendant of Robin Hood as played by Kevin Costner.
LMAO!
There was a video clip from a convention where he talked about how they initially tried to have him do a French accent but then it just didn't work, and he did try to give an example in that clip too.
I've seen a convention video where he did a French accent but I'm not sure it's the same one you're talking about, in this one he jokingly did the "Space, The Final Frontier..." spiel in a comically exaggerated French accent.
imagine if he had: kzhead.info/sun/ibpqYM2mbWWVgqM/bejne.html
This was a series that legitimatly made me feel smarter after I finished it. It thaught me cool things and I watched it with my mom who knew it from her childhood. Sadly many of the kids my age will never see this amazing series.
That's a nice outfit on Troi at 4:55 (also, looks like the Federation has moved beyond bras)
I love that Patrick Stewart delivers everything like he's doing Shakespeare. And it works.
He IS a thespian.
best star trek actor bar none....no one else is even close
Brent Spiner.
could have been awesome!
Lol ikr? He's very passionate and dedicated. I love Patrick Stewart! He's as kewl a person as he is a great actor!
Patrick Stewart could read off the ingredients in toothpaste, and it would still be highly entertaining.
Ain't that the truth!!
Ain't that the tooth.
Well there was kzhead.info/sun/qLaQl5RroXtvnYE/bejne.html ...
hahahahah
He'd do it in iambic pentameter, too.
I started the series a couple of months back, and it is indeed one of the greatest piece of science fiction ever made.
Nice. 1. Cardassian pun on point. 2. Picard Manoeuvre: Well spotted, and he got it straight from Leonard Nimoy in Wrath of Khan. 3. Yes, this series is so geeky I'm straight up doing lists.
Say, “Shut up, Wesley.”
He did
😁🍾
When data fonds his brother. Hah
Even Wil Wheaton hates Wesley Crusher!
_"Lt Commander Data, an android who drops being an android in the conversations like your friend who just became a vegan"_ lmao
To be fair, he was kind of forced to. He was asked about every third episode what was wrong with his eyes or skin or why did he act x way
😂
shrinerspark So are most people after they become vegan! 🤣🤣🤣
shrinerspark I always wondered why everyone did that, this is a universe where aliens exist, Data is probably not the weirdest thing people have seen.
When Picard started talking klingon my automatic subtitles wrote 'vacuum guitar schema.' that made me laugh more than I expected.
Words cannot express how much love I have for TNG and this honest trailer! Definitely one of the best ever! ❤️😂
"That one lightning effect" I'm dead
The most memorable TNG line ever: "THERE....ARE.....FOUR.....LIGHTS!!"
Probably due to being hit with that one lightning effect
did you forget to duck the lightning effect? lol
I’ll send you flowers.
That was ILM too
Definitely prefer Star Trek Cardassians over our version. With theirs you at least get Garek.
I'd even take Dukat over those excuses for humans...
So would I Cappy 4000, so would I.
They're less destructive against human culture too.
With all the plastic surgery, I think we do have the Star Trek Cardassians. They certainly act like the same arrogant, greedy lizard people in Star Trek.
I wonder where they were during kirks time, I know the real life reason is they didn't exist yet, but what is the in-universe Canon reason the Cardassians stayed out of Kirks way at that time.
3 years later and i still rewatch this Honest trailer cause... why not?
This being my favorite series of the Star Trek franchise, I am very grateful to you sir!
Commander Riker doesn't sit down. He mounts
Oh my!
SJ, did you mean that "Oh my!" in a George Takei voice? 'Cuz that's how I'm hearing it... lol
You are a winner. Make it so!
Screen Junkies You guys have really outdone yourselves, wish I could like it more
“Better acting than Star Trek deserves” so much pain, that hurt so much Edit: I pretty much agree with most of the people who are commenting under this
I mean... I definitely get it. Star Trek before Patrick Stewart was all cringe. With Patrick Stewart, it's actually very enjoyable. The tv show anyway. I liked most of the original movies minus the first one and the final frontier. Those were both horrible.
Hurts because it's true.
More like the acting Star Trek deserves...but I get it.
What would TNG be without Patrick Stewart
@@Parallaxus The original series had its moments, yeah, there was a lot of 60's cheese, but there were some decent dramatic moments sprinkled here and there.
Pretty cool you keep the aspect ratio correct to the period. I remember watching his all the time with my dad in the 90's.
I had my doubts about this one, but they were instantly vaporized by a full volley of quantum torpedoes. Good job once again Honest Trailers! In fact, this was one of my favorites!
"Klingons do not procrastinate" Now I know for sure I'm not a klingon.
Don't be so sure...
I liked the obvious lie that Klingons don’t take hostages. Worf’s much admired Kor from Organia clearly took hostages. Worf is a romantic when speaks of Klingons.
"klingons do not procrastinate. I think I might explain tomorrow!"
@@2bituser569 It's central point of his character. He was raised on idealistic tales of Klingon honor and most of his stories are based on him confronting the hypocrisy of modern Klingon society; the culmination of which is him killing Gowron for violating those ideals and then immediately ceding leadership to Martok because he embodies them.
I have been Rikering into chairs for years and I didn't even know it :)
You got a back problem too?
Best part of the video. I laughed. Never had noticed.
Straddle man
williestyle35 Nah, I just like to be goofy.
Me to my teacher when I forgot my homework: 3:33
Oh my god this is the funniest thing I’ve seen in months. I am sooooo grateful I stumbled into this! I really needed these belly laughs and tears of carefree joy!!!😂😂😂😂
Man, its hard to describe. I grew up watching this show. Every clip here has a memory attached. Hard to explain, but when i see each of these characters speaking, even out of context, i look at them the same way i would a long time friend and it just makes me feel happy.
Nostalgia, my friend :D I feel the same way with the stuff I grew up with.
like watching Mark Hamill isn't it?... yep. definitely...
same!
@Marko25Polo - Beautifully put.
“Better acting than Star Trek deserves”? Star Trek deserves the best everything
The ghost episode would indicate otherwise.
@@bfg3890 Yes, that was so much worse than the giant green hand in space. And I'm not even being sarcastic.
@@bfg3890 Which one was that?
Agreed. If there's any series that deserves great acting, it's Star Trek.
@@bfg3890 that was the BEST ghost they could get!
3:58 is my favorite part in this trailer.
This is the BEST Honest Trailers EVER! I just engaged in my pants!
