I remember seeing that bridge for the first time on the first episode of season 1 back when I was a kid. I was mesmerized. Something so special, familiar, modern and futuristic. I could picture myself sitting at a station, working along side these wonderful people, exploring the stars and living the best comfortable life. I miss these days.
An actual space ship wouldn't be designed for comfort like that. All the empty space is more air that needs to be processed and scrubbed. All spare floor space is more area that needs to be cleaned. It would be designed for work, not comfort.
I never noticed this until that ill-fated stage9 re-creation for PC a few years ago...that there's 2 replicators on the bridge itself (one below the dedication plaque for example). Not sure if they were ever used in the show.

The fold out bed function was disabled by Doctor Crusher to make sure Picard actually went to his quarters for some proper sleep at some point. I jest but that's totally an unused script idea from somewhere around Seasons 1 and 2
We had circumstances on the ship such as Underway Replenishment where you couldn't leave your watchstation at the normal shift change, so if you developed the need to hit the head, you'd call for a temporary change. Some roving watchstanders (shaft alley patrol, roving electrical watch, etc.) could just go.
Even though the buttons on the Okuda-grams did absolutely nothing and had nonsensical labels, actors who sat or stood at specific consoles consistently, like Worf, Data, or Crusher, would invent real patterns that they would perform in order to "execute" a specific command.
Imagine interviewing these higher ups and you ask, "How do you think they stole the chairs?" And they look you dead on the eye and with the most serious voice you've ever heard in your life they say, "It was an inside job..."
Enterprise A had a seatbelt on the captain's chair. Blink and you'll miss it in Star Trek V. Enterprise E gets one way at the end, though you'd sooner call it a full-torso harness. Check deleted scenes for Nemesis on your disc set. It may be the very last one since a repair crew installs it AFTER the climactic battle with the Scimitar. Still can't explain why it's just something they occasionally remember to furnish for the Captain. :-P
The buttons doing nothing...it may also be a nod to the GNDN button sets of TOS...and GNDN was an acronym for "Goes Nowhere, Does Nothing"! 😆😆😆😆😆 The neat thing with that dedication plaque having the staff names was so cool...and it's also shown in the TNG Technical Manual.
GNDN!! OMG! the references... Tears (Happy tears, mind you) 👏👏👏 How about TPDN - Tap/Touch Panel, Does Nothing. Well, until Post Production... 😉 LLAP! 🖖😎
See also Shatner's scene in Airplane II. Counterintuitively, considering that title, he appears giving commands onboard a spacey facility. His primary concern is assigning the crew to figure out what the blinking lights and silly, techy-looking set pieces are for.
The stations behind the tactical were omni modular use. They could be configured to pull up any needed station for the mission. It was probably Patrick Stewart who stole the command chairs.
They said on this channel a while back that Paramount had to make a new head prosthetic for Worf for S2 because someone stole the one they used in the first season. In my head I like to think that Michael Dorn was like "well, that was really fun, but it looks like we're getting canceled, so they won't be needing this anymore" and he just has it somewhere in his place.
God the Enterprise D interiors looked so... comfortable to me as a kid. I would imagine myself on there, going to work. Safe in deep space, the walls, the doors, the _carpets.._ Beige. Seeing it now still soothes me.
Here's another secret for you: they didn't just update the main bridge set between seasons 1 and 2, they actually moved the set to an entirely different building. They disassembled the whole thing on Paramount stage 6 and rebuilt it on Paramount stage 8.
I'm a little surprised they didn't go with the balcony. What better way to show that a situation was serious than by having yet another random crew member get yeeted over the railing when their console exploded?
Gerry Anderson beat them to it. You'll notice that the balcony set design looks a lot like the bridge set in "Space1999" (Season 1). Just joking. But, it is an interesting coincidence.
Why have them get thrown OVER the railing, when you could have them thrown THROUGH the railings, and showcase yet another Federation health and safety oversight by having insufficiently secured barriers? Not to mention the extra hazard caused by having falling debris/personnel raining down on the officers below.
Am I the only one who noticed the joke written above the toilet in the star trek 5 brig? Do not use while in spacedock???? That must be a reference to the toilets in trains not to be used in stations right?
Damn that's effort. Re-carpeting is a pain, too. Now I'm super curious to see how apparent it is and the patterns they went with. I imagine they'd get soiled and that would be a no bueno to see a big ass stain on the carpet on the final cut lol.
I'm very happy to have visited the Las Vegas star trek experience and see the incredibly accurate enterprise bridge replica in person . God I miss that place !
If memory serves the view screen was actually the entrance to the set. Also I'm pretty sure that in the ready room that alcove between the replicator and Livingstons tank was the captains bathroom
I would imagine a Star Trek toilet would not have any water, you would just sit down and dump into a replicator that would deconstruct it and put it in storage for when its parts are needed for something else
He sits in it from time to time mimicking Picard's voice: "Excellent point Mr. Worf, fire at will!", "Thank you for your input everyone, but I believe we will go with Mr. Worf's suggestions this time."
I've often wondered what the hell all those blinking buttons and lights did. I mean, I've never flown a warp capable star ship, but it all looks needlessly complicated.
I think the big mistake they made with Riker was just having him sat next to the captain instead of having his own station, as Spock had. It made him seem redundant most of the time.
The whole bridge is suppose to come out in one unit to be swapped for different missions. This lowers the refit time for upgrades. The Bridge also has its own life support, and power as well as if can be used as a escape pod although never used.
My least favorite bridge... makes my head ache just looking at it... so many tripping opportunities (health & safety anyone??)... favorite bridge still is the the Enterprise from First Contact.... now THAT was a brilliant bridge! 😀
Never understood why they didn't use the escape pods when the saucer section crash landed. Sure maybe they didn't have enough for everyone. But from orbit a crash landing probably would take at least 15 minutes. It is probably more like 30 to 60 minutes at least since they were not actually in orbit. They could have even launched shuttle craft and beamed people aboard. Then have a skeleton crew make the crash landing.
@Jules Jernigan wouldn't need all 1000 to escape pods. Would you rather crash land from orbit or use escape pods. If it takes a long time to use escape pods, then why is that even what they yell seconds before a warp core breach? Tell me you never watched ST without telling me. There are 400 escape pods on D. So even if 2 people grabbed the closest one and left, that's 800 gone within minutes. Tell me again why that wouldn't work? Heck, many could have been transported to the surface. The stats say they can transport 1000 people per hour. Using shuttle craft 250 more. Do you know how long it takes to crash.land.from orbit? Minimum of 30 minutes. So 500 people to escape pods and 500 transporter and still have time to spare.
No idea about the "rock" look, but those are spray painted foam pieces to represent random debris. Anything else is too dangerous to use in practical pyro effects with actors nearby.
The walls are actually made from rock! When the bridge is wrecked in Generations you can look at the open wall between the ready room and bridge and see the rock walls. 😁
Nope, that chair wasn't the result of the stolen chair. Watch the movie again, just after the bridge gets a hole blasted in it you can see the captain's chair now has a slightly deferent shape to it, so the replica chair was only used at the very end of the battle.
What I'm confused about it in Nemesis when the bridge got blown out where did all the paper come from? I would of thought with the introduction of padds paper would be obsolete
The original Conn/Ops chairs were both uncomfortable to sit in & stand up from leading to the more upright forward-facing stations in season 2. Although these originals were brought out for All Good Things along with the wooden side panels the 2nd captains' chair was still used in the 'Farpoint' timeline it's possible the original chair had been redressed for Beverly's captains' chair in the future timeline
Correction: Only Michael Okuda (assisted by Cari Thomas) was the scenic designer on TNG. Denise Okuda joined during DS9 as a graphic artist and video supervisor.
It is the same bridge just modified a lot. The bridge was rebuilt after season one on a different soundstage and used for the rest of the show and Generations. Not sure how much of the season one bridge set was reused when they moved it.
HAHAAA!! I'm Swede - And the thumbnail you have on your vid is Perfect with an arrow pointing to the chair and the text "STOLEN"!!! :D In Swedish "STOLEN" - means - "THE CHAIR"..! XD
The buttons may have done nothing and it maybes was improv but actors know that when they do press buttons to do certain things they must keep repeating what they did the first time because they know the viewers will expect it otherwise they will get letters from viewers and fans pointing out you did it this way in one episode but completely different in another. They know the fans care about the little details and call out bullsh*t when they don't appear to care.

I bet Patrick Stewart has 2 very comfy chairs at home, LOL
Having sat in every seat on the Bridge, I can say that Picard had the most comfy.
And a flute
Marina Sirtis took her conference room chair.
I was thinking the same thing, the crew nicked so many things from the set an I wouldn't be surprised that Patrick got his command chairs at his home.
Ok now we just wait for command chair thefts on the Picard set to confirm this.
Technically the 3rd seat was for a mission specialist or VIP.
But yes Troi or Crusher were normally there.
Denise Crosby did an awesome job for both Tasha Jar and Commander Sela.
When I saw the fold-out bed the first thing that popped into my head was Riker.
It has to be said:

Does the bridge crew have to ask permission from Picard to leave station & go to the head or can they just up & go? These are important questions.
Wonder if it's like the Army..."sir permission to utilize the head"? Lol
Like on any naval vessel you do not ask permission, you just don't go. You are expected to go before or after your shift.

The crash scene in Generations is still my favorite SFX ev-ah!

Nicely done. But that is NOT the Stargazer in Picard's ready room. Different registries. Don't feel bad. I thought they were the same for 25 years.
Star TrekS First Contact? 🤔
Why were all the alternate reality bridges better?
They looked less like a luxury resort and more martial.
