It's not playing for you either?

2024-08-18 12:33:16 +0000 UTCI also love the little callback to Kirk's role as officiant at a wedding on TOS ("Balance of Terror"), as well - both he and Picard recite nearly the same speech.(Unfortunately, the TOS wedding has quite a different resolution).

2023-01-28 07:34:50 +0000 UTCI've seen him in many roles and every time he's slightly out of character, there's a nastiness present. I was wondering if my assessment was legit, as so many people gush about how nice he is in person. Strange disparity!

2021-10-15 01:51:31 +0000 UTCI love this episode but every time I hear Rick Berman my skin crawls, he is such a sexist, abusive, homophobic sleeze bag. Great video though. I love your reactions, thank you so very much,

2021-08-18 09:37:02 +0000 UTCThis was a very popular episode for Data fans and fans who enjoy more character development and "smaller" moments that weren't seen often, or at all. At that point in the show, people were dying for more insight into the everyday lives of the crew, this episode did a good job of that and the B plot was enough to keep things interesting throughout. This is one of the first episodes I saw on TV as a kid and from that moment on I was completely fascinated with Data and remain so.

2021-08-06 00:24:05 +0000 UTCNo, he's accurately quoting Sherlock Holmes. It's Sherlock's logic, given to him by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, that I take issue with.
Graham Mills
2021-08-04 00:56:34 +0000 UTCMaybe Data was just paraphrasing?

2021-08-04 00:47:50 +0000 UTCThe next episode should be called “Keeping up with the C**********s”

2021-08-01 07:17:41 +0000 UTCBoy, having to separate the saucer—that would be a real disaster if that was necessary.
Kathy A
2021-07-30 22:55:32 +0000 UTCRosalind Chao is a really good actress. She starred in a wonderful 1990 film called A Thousand Pieces of Gold, set in Gold Rush era California, was part of the ensemble of the classic weepfest The Joy Luck Club, and of course she played Klinger’s girlfriend/wife in MASH.

2021-07-30 21:50:03 +0000 UTCI've always had a problem with “Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth.” NO! “Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, is a possibility."

2021-07-30 01:31:19 +0000 UTCDoes anyone else think Spot is a Catdroid!?
Brett Delbridge
2021-07-29 05:13:51 +0000 UTCData’s Day probably ranks in my top 10 favorite episodes, and I think it’s fairly well loved by the TNG fan base.

2021-07-28 20:15:07 +0000 UTCAnd the way it seems inherent makes me wonder if that was deliberate by Soong. I mean, the issue with Lore wasn't that he had emotions, but that they led him to being malevolent. Data has an ethical subroutine instead of emotions, and maybe kindness was deliberately programmed into that.
Bluefox
2021-07-28 18:47:34 +0000 UTCWell put, and there are many reasons older Trek fans don’t like newer Trek. I might watch the New Worlds one or whatever it is with Pike, but the rest of the shows so far can’t leave this universe fast enough.
Andrew Hogan
2021-07-28 12:14:51 +0000 UTCAs we saw Kat already had a picture of Data and Spot. So I'm assuming Kat knew her name.

2021-07-28 10:14:52 +0000 UTCHi there Matthew!! Thank you so much for that link and I look forward to reading it over and educating myself further on that terminology! I appreciate you taking the time to express these thoughts and share them with us. As someone with her own mental disorders and push for advocacy, I am always wanting to make sure to learn and grow however I can. I know that sometimes we can speak in a way that has been the "norm" for so long and I appreciate you giving me the moment to reflect and learn from that while understanding I'm still just a human who will make mistakes from time to time. So thank you again for your kindness, understanding and passing along of knowledge! - Kat <3

2021-07-28 05:12:29 +0000 UTCYep, Gates was also the choreographer for the movie The Labyrinth.

2021-07-28 04:46:20 +0000 UTCI adore this episode and how it highlights Data's inherent kindness.
Jason Faria
2021-07-28 03:45:40 +0000 UTCThe thing is that this episode is VERY heavy on the world building and fleshing it out, and for many Trek fans, especially back then, part of the appeal WAS the world of Star Trek. Fans wanted to immerse themselves in it and actually live in it. It was their escape. As such there is a DEEP protectiveness towards the world that episodes such as this built. I think the fact that the newer shows have eschewed that kind of narrative style and even major aspects of the world is why many are turned off from them. This episode shows fans what living in this world would be like, and it is appealing, despite the danger presented as well. My one complaint is that, while here, Keiko's emotional responses can seem extreme and wishy-washy, it's only because we're seeing them through the eyes of Data, who does not have a) the whole story of her response, and b) the understanding of those emotions to accurately judge them. The problem arises when she shows up in other non-Data centric stories and retains this characterization. I don't mind Keiko that much personally, but I know her characterization has been a turn off for some, and I think that's why.

2021-07-28 02:59:31 +0000 UTCI know Katrina didn’t mean any offense when she mentioned that the fake Vulcan ambassador acted similarly to someone with “high-functioning” autism, but I have to point out that describing members of the autistic community as “high-functioning” or “low-functioning” is problematic. I think the link below gives a pretty succinct rundown on the reasons why, but, in a nutshell, that terminology ignores an autistic individual’s unique traits and classifies them as useful or not useful to society by neurotypical standards. I say this with deep respect for the inclusive and diverse Gallifrey Gals fan community you’ve all helped cultivate. Again, I know no offense was intended. Unfortunately, the use of functioning labels to describe autistic individuals is still very common. Hopefully, we can change that. https://planningacrossthespectrum.com/blog/why-stop-using-functioning-labels/

David Brown
2021-07-28 01:38:12 +0000 UTCRanked top 25 of ST:TNG episodes. Thanks for your reaction!!
Richard Saldana
2021-07-27 23:06:35 +0000 UTCI love this episode for the following reasons. - Data's face when looking at T'pel in the turbo lift - Data's reaction to the hair color change in the barbers. - Data's face expression during the dancing lessons. (And the whole dancing scene altogether). It's a nice low key episode focusing on a character played by an actor to has great comedic presence.

2021-07-27 22:16:00 +0000 UTCI can see why you might have wondered if it might not have been well received with elements of the fan base. People seem to like it as far as I have seen. The whole episode is put together so well in every aspect I don't think people even stopped to consider that stuff, just enjoyed the ride. Plus it being from Data's POV makes it more relatable if you have issues with that stuff.
Kirk Deighton
2021-07-27 22:14:05 +0000 UTCI thought it was great. As Data said, the gift should represent the person giving the gift. It may not cost anything but it is an item that the receiver might not consider getting for themselves. It is a memento of the giver to the receiver. Perhaps a true meaning of a gift than just the monetary value of it.
Peter
2021-07-27 22:09:44 +0000 UTCWas Katrina ever curious about whether Data's cat had a name?
Matt O'Keefe
2021-07-27 21:22:30 +0000 UTCI couldn't love this episode any more. It's a top 5 for me!
Kevin Martin
2021-07-27 21:19:12 +0000 UTCStill pretty jealous of my old library colleague Toby Philpott who worked alongside her on that. He was one of the puppeteers handling the Fiery sequence, among others.
Peter Evans
2021-07-27 21:16:22 +0000 UTCAdorable episode. But O'Brien, was there a stag night and was Data invited, with a request for him to delete his internal records afterwards? Gotta know. Also Gates McFadden and Data dancing together is just a fantastic piece of physical acting.
Peter Evans
2021-07-27 21:15:17 +0000 UTCI gotta say, giving gifts in a society where there is no money and you can create basically ANYTHING from the replicators seems kind of strange.
Neil McRae
2021-07-27 20:46:02 +0000 UTCGates McFadden holds a tap class as one of her panels during the Star Trek Cruise. I haven't been able to make one yet though (I've been on 2 of the cruises)
e com
2021-07-27 20:45:05 +0000 UTCThis is a lovely episode. I always enjoyed taking deeper dives into the characters daily lives. Also, just wanted to mention, I thought the audio was great this video. I was able to enjoy both the episode and your commentary without even considering the more technical aspects which I think is usually the goal when it comes to audio. You two really do a great job and your chemistry is big-as-life on the screen. See you in the next one!
Brandon Scott
2021-07-27 19:42:15 +0000 UTCBrent Spiner is amazing in "The outer limits" episode: The Deprogrammers.
Eyobe Amare
2021-07-27 18:56:32 +0000 UTCI just looked that up... thank you!!
Brett Whittaker
2021-07-27 18:32:00 +0000 UTCFun fact: Gates McFadden was Director of Choreography on the 1986 movie Labyrinth.
Wayne Clarke
2021-07-27 18:30:03 +0000 UTCAlways a favorite episode. Has anyone told them about the fact Gates McFadden has her own Star Trek Podcast, although, maybe not tune in until they’re done with the show.
Andrew Hogan
2021-07-27 18:10:37 +0000 UTCI know Katrina was concerned that Data's Day might not be a well-regarded episode among fans, but it actually has a rating of 8.2 on IMDb. The episodes that fans apparently weren't very enthused about were the last two. The Loss has an IMDb rating of 6.0 and Final Mission has a rating of 6.8. A small bit of trivia: The actress who played Keiko also played Li (Mulan's mother) in Disney's live action Mulan movie.
Jeff Seely
2021-07-27 18:07:34 +0000 UTCThis is what I have been waiting for since first running across the series.
Jon Medders
2021-07-27 17:58:46 +0000 UTCKat when Spot introduced lol

2021-07-27 17:27:31 +0000 UTCAnd a cat for Data.
