When I was a child, my dad used to bring me to school by car. During the ride, I played "Star Trek" and we always had a technical issue like a phase variance in an induction coil. Usually it ended such that the warp core had to be ejected...

Sir Patrick Stewart inspired me since my childhood. Thank you captain!

He had many lives. It's cool to note that he didn't take on the Picard role until he was 47.

Never too late to do the other thing. Keep going.

Probably like a lot of people here, I grew up watching TNG in the 90s. There are so many nuggets of wisdom for life, morality, leadership in there. Some episodes makes you think, others sad, others hopeful. It's still my most re-watched series.

The cast also seem like a group of genuinely nice people. It's so nice to see the real world friendship there. A group of people I'd want to be friends with. Sir Patrick Stewart was the perfect Captain Picard. Someone many of us looked up to even though he's a fictional character.

Don't ever stop boldly going wherever you are.

Oh. This is going to affect me more than or nearly as hard as George Carlin passing back in '08 did. This is a horrible year.

I recall recognizing him as a Roman soldier in "I, Claudius".

Not just any Roman soldier, he portrayed Lucius Aelius Sejanus, who effectively created the Praetorian Guard. With a full head of curly hair.

I was scanning the comments for someone to mention this. I, Claudius is a great show and for the many people who mainly know Stewart from Star Trek, his character is a very fun contrast from Picard.

"I, Claudius" (1976) had a number of excellent actors in it—many of them no longer with us. Most (if not all) of the 12 parts are on YouTube and/or archive.org.

(Highly recommended.)

Damn. And me here typing "make it so" to AI agents instead of re-watching TNG.

Let me go and fix that.
