    • @odom2142
      @odom2142 4 роки тому +91

      Sugarsmaxx You think so? I think he’s gotten a ton. The reason there were so many episodes in TNG where he got to step out of the Data character was because the producers wanted to show his acting skills off. All those TNG actors were Shakespearean pros and I remember my friends talking about that as 10-year-olds when the show was new. If we knew how good they were at that age, then surely plenty of people are aware of how good Spiner and his peers are and were.

      I dunno. There's a lot to appreciate in Data.
      I can't imagine it's easy to act out a character that has to be almost completely flat and emotionless yet STILL come across as oddly human because of his childlike curiosity, yet he pulls it off perfect. He just perfected the art of conveying a hell of a lot with subtly and restraint on a level a lot of actors couldn't pull off.

      ReptorULTRA7 Full story: I'm a fan, but nowhere near as bit as my older brother, who is a hardcore Trekkie. So I figured I'd get an autograph from Spiner for him as an Xmas gift. I was thrilled to meet him, but I asked him to make it out to Jeff, and as I was turning to walk away he said "Nice to meet you Jeff." I turned around and told him "I'm not Jeff, I'm Dan." He was totally perplexed until I explained, and then he said "BRILLIANT DISGUISE! I though you were Jeff!"

    Best part is you can hear Spiner call upon this exact same character voice in Star Trek in the one episode where Data has started intermittently taken on a southern accent, particularly in the one scene where Spot keeps jumping on his command console and he finally puts the cat down saying "Vamoose ya lil' varmint!"

    "Mother always said, 'It's always darkest just before the dawn.' Burned her retinas out, starin' into a solar eclipse." Bob Wheeler is one of the greatest comic characters ever written, and Brent Spiner's delivery is perfect! Of course, it helps to be in a room full of other great comedians who are willing to play the "Oliver Hardy" role in order to set up and respond to Spiner's "Stan Laurel" type character. I've always said that the best way to truly understand any actor's ability is to watch them in three different roles. In addition to the multiple, related roles Brent Spiner played on TNG, THIS role really helps to highlight the breadth of his skill set.

      @@kendallrivers1119 Friends appealed to the lowest common denominator, meaning lots of crude body humor, one-dimensional, braindead and/or borderline psychotic characters and the comedy comfortably seated in a non stop rain of one-liners and catch phrases.
      Frasier was far more intelligent and genuinely witty, with the comedy coming from the actual situations the characters found themselves in (which is the sit- in sit-com) and often the funniest scenes involved very little dialogue. The characters are so well written and developed that all they have to do is look at each other for a moment to get the entire joke out.
      More simply, Friends is the kind of show that spells everything out for the audience, making it easy for low-IQ people to "get it", whereas Frasier makes the viewer have to think about the joke, which the average TV watcher doesn't want to do.

      @kendallrivers1119 5 років тому +2

      @Dargonhuman And from all the interviews I've read or watched from various cast members and writers\producers etc. that was the exact intention Frasier as a show had. To do what they called 10 percenter jokes which is not being afraid to do jokes that only 10 percent of the audience would get but having the confidence that the other 90 would laugh at something else because the show was very, very layered. Frasier was intelligent and sophisticated but also balanced that out with good old fashioned slapstick and the working class\quirky characters to balance out the two wealthy super intellectual psychiatrists Frasier and Niles. Very diverse in its humor and that's why truck drivers and other every day people laugh and love it as much as the intellectuals. Another brilliant sitcom I feel is underrated is Barney Miller, a superior sitcom to most of the lot indeed.
