I hope that Brent makes an appearance in the new Night Court. We need another Bob Wheeler moment.
First thought in my head when I saw they rebooted it.
That would be an epic cameo
Yeah..
The Wheelers..... And that guy that moved in slow motion.
I loved his character with his character's wife.
I doubt it will last that long
the best data/Q interaction in the whole show is where data says to Q: "you have achieved in disgrace what i have always aspired to be"
agreed, that line was fuckin SAVAGE
Even hearing it now is badass.
How do you write that kind of stuff?
My favorite is when Q gives him the gift of laughter.
John De Lancie as Q was a MASTERSTROKE, he was simply unbeatable!
some think John arrived late but according to the script he arrived right on "Q"
These are two of my three favorite actors on TNG.
yes agree both were great in the next generation
Who's your third favorite TNG actor? Wil Wheaton I presume? :D
There's too many to choose from
But mine would mainly come from voyager
De lancie in voy too
Idem!

John de Lancie is very underrated actor
Why underrated, he's working isn't he, there are many others who are only 1 trick ponies, the underrated word gets thrown around too much
underrated for tv audience, the answers of this very video show the lack of access and exposure that tv audience is submited to by mainstream media. is up to us as audience to reach the content of the artists that strike us with their performances and creations
To watch John d L shed tears on Picard´s finale is priceless and makes up for the last years of mediocre trek. that and Jeri and Santiago performances...and Gates that always gives us great acting and never gets recognition
42:17 These guys remind me why I’ve always loved actors. A questioner actually said earlier on what I’ve always believed and even managed to express on occasion. That actors are explorers. Not of distant places or undiscovered sciences, but of beingness itself. They are explorers of experience, of situation. But unlike other artists who have the benefit of a medium they can see written out on a page or painted onto a canvas, they only have moments come and gone to work with. They can be writers, but most work in response to someone else’s thought. They have been directors, filmmakers, but most rely on the artistry of others to carry forward what they do. Their’s is a courage I’ve always found most admirable, to write with water and sing into the wind using only themselves as instruments. All we can do in return is indulge what they have so given us to drink and to breathe, and applaud.
A beautiful statement and insight.
i am so glad i came across this on youtube. i was a big fan of de lancie before he appeared in star trek. and i fell in like and like with Q. what a joy. my favorite scene was the mariachi scene. couldn't stop laughing. my favorite scene with spiner was when data laughed. and when he was asked what he was laughing at he said i don't know. well done gentlemen! and you are so fan friendly to boot!
Yes Data & q are on my star trek Mt. Rushmore! John & Brent are still two of my favorite actors outside of the trekverse! I will always lurve both of them!
From watching this, Brent seems like he's a down to earth nice guy!
it is Thursday how time flies
You gotta be kidding me?! Brent Spiner and John DeLancie were in Salt Lake where I live and I never heard anything about it and missed it?! Omg!!!
John puts his mark on the Star Trek Universe as if he Didn't do much! But he Opened up TNG and he was there at the end! He has huge influence on the whole universe!
HOW COOL would it be to go and sink a few beers with these guys and sit and listen to their stories! 😁👍
i dont think most star trek fans appreciate how lucky we were to have this many performance theatre actors giving us a taste of the classical stage creme-de-creme acting on the tng era.
Their voices are so distinctive. I think that's important in acting.:)
WOW>. Both in their early 70's and LOOK great..
There's a new Night Court coming soon. It'd be fun to see Brent Spinner do a cameo of that old role. He was it there a few episodes back then.
Thanks for recording these’
Im always surprised how thought out the answers they give are. Two genuinely nice guys.
Thank you for this post . I love the experience
Thanks to Brent Spiner for mentioning the show that I knew nothing about called Hell On Wheels. A show about life after the U.S. Civil War? He said he watched every episode. I had no idea Anson Mount who plays Capt. Pike and Colm Meaney, Chief O'Brien, were in Hell on Wheels. An acting connection?
Spiner might have feared been typecast as Mr. Data but he never should. The great performers can take a role and evolve it over many years. He did exactly that with Data. And amazingly, he did it while also portraying several other roles in Star Trek and in his body of work outside of the ST Multiverse.
And what can you say about de Lancie that hasn't already been said. Another wonderful actor who makes every character he inhabits interesting to watch and absorb.
He was awesome on TNG. "Most Toys" is a great episode
Thank you so much for putting this up!! I love these two amazing ST: TNG actors. You rock! So much better than my blurry cell phone videos. Did you get Cary Elwes?
They asked not to take pictures or record during his panel. Sadly many did so anyway, but I don't feel it's appropriate to post when asked not to.
I hadn’t heard most of those stories before from Brent which was nice! 🎉
They look like brothers now.
No mention of John's recurring role of the evil Colonel Frank Simmons in Stargate SG1.
Thanks chaps. I had a good laugh. .And it's fantastic to see that your doth out there plying your craft. I hope to see you guys on the silver screen for many more years to come .Have a good one
Brent Spiner's quote ..."Theres no profit in telling somebody they're not who they think they are" ~ Lanford Wilson, "the 5th of july" , play - Loved it!
Brent Spiner was Data and he was incredible. I never could understand, however, why Data would lower himself and want to be just a human. Data was more valuable than all the crew members combined. Totally irreplaceable. Brent made Data a person more real than any human he could of pretended to be. Thank you both for making such incredible, imaginary persons come to life. You both will never be forgotten.
Brent can't help but be hilarious 😂
Amazing coverage as always! Hoping you have the Leslie David Baker panel 🤞
Was he in room 250?
@@AmmarossPlays yes!
@@PatrickBeattyReviews He's up now ;)
de Lancie will always be Eugene on Days of Our Lives to me, and Brent will always be Bobby Wheeler as well, but I did love them as Q and Data/Lore too.
I actually met John Lancie and Mr. Spiner, they had a few questions to ask, couldn't answer all of them, nice men, they where fan-girling the whole time though.
Awesome!
Two crushes, one panel! ❤❤
I really enjoyed Brent Spiner in one of the new Outer Limits episodes. 🖖
I'm from Houston, too! I met Brent at a comic con in Albuquerque.
Is it me or does Brent Spinner look very like the late Scott Wilson (from the walking dead) with his hair and beard like that
Brent did learn at least one very important lesson playing Data. Probably for the first time in his life he's having to now live like a 3%. That transition isn't always a pleasant affair, specially if you started from way down the social scale, it has broken many people, Physically, Mentally & Financially.
Brent Spiner...what an amazing guy! It must be hard to work with him being hes hiliarious!
John and Brent do a Q vs. Data similar to the Spock vs. Q from years ago with Leonard Nimoy
Concordo i teatrini simpaticissimi di Spock e Bones sono famosi come quelli di Data e Q
So cool!!!
I got a kick out of Brent Spinner when he appeared on Night Court.
What if John de Lancie was actually a god like eternal alien posing as a human actor
Great idea👍🏻!
io adoro la serie TOS ma i personaggi di Next Generation sono fantastici son troppo affezionato ad essi soprattutto i mitici Q e Data!
Forget Data, anytime I see Brent all I see is Bob Wheeler....." We were seduced by the glory of it all".....LOL
Haven't been able to make a SLCCC since the 2nd one (I know it's FanX now, don't care, SD can suck it), thank you for uploading this 😁
I missed this panel due to ... reasons. But I was talking with my family today, and trying to pick one question would be HARD.
So, now, this is my formulation:
"I have to ask one question which is like choosing my favorite child. I could ask Mr. DeLancie about Days of Our Lives or Mr. Spiner about Sunday in the Park with George, but as a cradle Trekkie, as my mom is a Trekkie and I watched Star Trek reruns with her and so we were thrilled with having new Trek, what was it like stepping into that legacy?"
Alas, I'm never brave enough to ask questions, and, again, I missed the panel.
But. Yeah. Hindsight.
My two favorite characters from one of my Favorite Shows of all time. Both Q and Data in my opinion had the most complicated and unusual "Reads" to put it in novel context. Unfortunately, a deficit I'm soon to clean up, I've not seen all of Q's, but he's an enigma, I never really grasp what it was he was after, every-time I thought I had it figured out, Q would throw a metaphoric monkey (I heard he like excluding the wrench), into the works & put me back at Diddley-Squat. Data was as predicable as any computer program, but that's what the world saw, as we saw Data Evolved there were flashes, unknown to anyone but Data, a secret Agenda? Good? Bad?. That will never be cleared up except through novels, et al.
Saying that an actor is a professional liar is like claiming that a pianist pretends to be Beethoven when they perform one of his sonatas. Both the great plays and the immortal music live on because of the deep sense of honesty the performers have to bring to their craft. It's the opposite of pretence.
Good stuff
Tapestry is one of those rare TNG episodes that doesn't include Q in the title - outside of the bookending Encounter and AGT
When you meet the character of Data in the pilot, you nearly expect him to have duck tape, candy, and a white van.
I liked René Auberjonois in _Benson!_
Anyone remember where the medicine cart was in Astroworld?
This was definitely a "experiment* on JMS's part- and I'm of the opinion it mostly worked
In the intro - you commented that you thought EarthGov was up to something. I found it interesting that you didn't comment on a bit of the dialog that was a clue....
Notice how they portrayed Londo- for the most part in a very positive light. And then would show GKar and Delenne VERY negatively. Kosh just didn't give a ......
I don't get all the negativity over PsiCorp- we can trust the Corp. PsiCorp is our friend......
Picard was Krutzman crap ignoring canon. Q's cant die as established in both TNG and Voyager, unless the continuum makes them mortal, which is a major deal and not taken lightly. John's performance though was excellent as usual. worked for him once.. nice guy. Ki Luke would have been a great Dr. Soong, especially since he is a Trek alumn from TOS as the Dr. of the Psychiatrict base in the episode, Whom Gods Destroy.
Keye Luke was also the original on-screen Kato in the Green Hornet serials of the 1940s! So, this has made Kato just about every major Southeast Asian ethnic group from Japanese (original ethnicity in the radio series?), to Filippino, to Chinese (to avoid the crap the Green Hornet radio series producers would get if they kept him Japanese during World War II!), to probably Korean at some point(!), and back to being Chinese for the most part after Bruce Lee's portrayal in the late 1960s Green Hornet TV series.
I liked Keye Luke in the original Kung Fu TV series as well as the two Gremlins and various guest appearances (including a particularly funny guest shot on Night Court) on different TV series. He was definitely an underrated actor.
John De Lancie waiting patiently at the start. I suppose a guy called Q should be used to waiting...
Kneel before the Star Trek gods :)
Reminds me of Megamind, "I love you too random citizen!"
Wow they look identical.😅
Q is Discord
Yes.
Q and Data; a romance for the ages
Bonding, James Bonding. 😉
Engaging; nice rapport. 👍
I don't think I would have recognized John.
Did your Padd’s ever have a cracked screen?
Just talked with him at motor city comic con. What a great guy.
What a shit question to ask who was the best captain to work for, FFS that was a well thought out question, Brent gave a good answer, very respectful to the other captain actors and actresses
I've seen many conventions where Brent does impressions of Patrick Stewart, yet I find it such a shame that he never seems to perform as Data or Lore, even here when he's specifically asked about playing multiple characters. He could absolutely KILL audiences by having a conversation with himself as Data and Lore, something everyone would love to see, yet he never does. Shame!
GREAT, they have the same hair colour .😂😂🤣🤣👌👌
It's an old frickin TV show for cripes sake. A couple of good actors. Thx.
13:00
El capi tan 😅😅
It's fascinating to me that Brent Spiner, who played the character Data with such genius, doesn't seem to appreciate Data's charm, the core of Data, Data's innocence - or doesn't seem to understand Data's charm the way I understand it. I think that the "emotions" chip spoiled the character and maybe even spoiled the franchise.
Then you're definitely not going to appreciate Picard's final season 😢

❣️❣️
I would have ask John about his character on Legend and been murdered by the crowd.
Brent and John
The odd couple reboot?
👌
John and Brent are great, this kid is an 🐴
Q looks the same, just with gray hair now
Data has white hair😮😮😮😮 Q has white hair 😮😮😮😮
35yrs ago they were in their 40s when the show started and both had black hair. They're in their 70s now...duh 😊
I was there. That was a great panel.
12:13 Randy Quaid IS a clown.
Who filmed this? Why is the host not on screen - just some voice when he's speaking off cam? Dis-concerning.
Sorry. The moderator was on the far side of a table, so I cropped in on the guests for the majority of the panel so you see them better and less of the heads of the crowd.
You're getting to see something for free that the person recording this had to pay to attend, plus she/he had the kindness to upload it for those of us who didn't have the time and/or money to attend ourselves. I can only hope you're not as ungrateful in real life, but I'd probably be proved wrong.
@@ammarossdanan As far as I'm concerned, if certain people can't appreciate that they're seeing something for free that you had to pay for and that you were kind enough to upload this for those of us who couldn't attend, you don't owe them one little syllable of an apology for how you chose to record it.
Thank you for this video.
@@retnavybrat Thank you. I do appreciate feedback on my videos though and do take it into account. I wanted to avoid wide shots and panning so a disembodied moderator (most of which tend to stay quiet after the initial back-and-forth) is a necessary sacrifice.
I'm glad you enjoy these. :)
@@ammarossdanan you did the right thing cropped was ideal it was perfect all I needed to see was them I actually forgot this was audience filmed not pro except rude audience talking while guests are
Because we're watching and are not in the room, these kinds of appearances are almost painful the watch.
Why?
I hate it when people talk too much!
Please. Q didn't want to become human. And the introduction of Data's emotion chip was utter garbage.
Wow, even John is fed up with the lying media!
I LOVE IT WHEN TO OLD FART ACTORS START TALKING ABOUT EACH OTHER !!
De Lancie seems to have a very twisted view on acting, and of course, a perverted view on politics.
Because you have an opposite view? It's perverted
Maybe your on the wrong side
@@-M0LE I'm never wrong.
@@jovetj which is a perverted view
@@-M0LE Nah, it is the accurate and substantiated view!
Don't like you anymore Brent Data Spiner.
Q was my favorite character in TNG until I met him a convention in Seattle. Total jerk to me and my friend.
Everybody has bad days friend, are you always in the best mood?
I've heard many accounts of him being a jerk.
Surprising, he seems like a nice guy. I can say that Spiner is not friendly in real life. Never get to know your heroes I guess 🤷♂
@@Knight21030 What? No story?
@@gooch0607 Lol nothing personally, but it’s pretty well known that he generally hates talking anything TNG. His schtick is to play stupid and troll his fans when giving autographs etc. Check out interviews of Spiner one on one. You can see his personality change if anyone asks him a TNG question. He goes because he’s paid too, not because he likes fan service.
Here's a question for the two of you: How does it feel to be in the worst Star Trek show ever produced?
Neither one of them was in Discovery, were they?
@@DeejKelley Lol, that's a good one
While I'm not crazy enough for the series to go to conventions but I really did (do), enjoy the entirety of all the series, specially TNG, I guess the best compliment you can give an Actor is to believe they are the characters they're playing, which the entire cast of The Next Generation did which looked to us with ease, like the Universe already had these special people set aside for the show long before they were even born !
FUCKING LEGENDS MAN THEY ARE GREAT
I love them but they are largely brainwashed and clueless about the real world. It's sad and culturally destructive.
I was on he front row. Just off to the right of you.
