Set Course for the Vaudeville System!

Here’s a cute little outtake

[3.7 MB, Windows Media] of Patrick “Jean-Luc Picard” Stewart doing an

uncharacteristic soft-shoe number. It’s an “easter egg” from Star Trek: The Next Generation’s 5th season DVD set.

  • Nice!

    The next time I see two Star Trek geeks arguing about which is better -- the original series or TNG -- I'd force to listen to William Shatner do Rocket Man, and Stewart doing this... Jean Luc rules! End of discussion. Move along.

  • that's super cute.

    i like the part at the end where he almost falls into the chair.

  • Strange but true: At one of ST:TNG's story pitching sessions by non-staff writers, there was one writer who actually pitched a proposal for an all-singing, all-dancing episode.

    The writer even had a semi-logical rationale for the story. But the producers took a pass on the idea.

    (The fools! The BLIND, IGNORANT FOOLS!)

    Come to think of it, I'm pretty sure that was the last time I got asked in to pitch ideas....

  • HA HA HA.

    I love him.

    He may have been in one too many musicals as a schoolboy.

    Engage!

  • Of course, I'm sure you've seen/heard Brent Spinner's cd "Old Yelloweyes Is Back"

    It's all showtunes.

    ...hmmm.

    I wonder what time the Nathan Lane retrospective on A&E starts?...

  • Hey man, Brent Spiner has done SONDHEIM. Freaked me the hell out when I realised it was Data with the bad German accent on the Sunday in the Park With George CD.

  • I will not rest until I see Michael "Worf" Dorn performing Motorhead's Ace of Spades in full Klingon uniform, especially the "That's the way I like it baby, I don't wanna live forever!" line.

  • Joey - that is genius. Oh man, what an image, I'd be in awe. Although I suspect Worf's performance will be somewhat stiffer.

    Now that I think about it, Worf would make a good Gene Simmons. You can just imagine that Klingon tongue sliding up and down his Battleth (sp?).
