Brent Spinner has so much charm and charisma in Real Life. His skills and inner Life made him the Perfect Data. No other actor could do Data Justice...He is a very Talented Actor who continues to Amaze All his Fans with each new emotion and Twist in His new Form of Data....
They killed Data and wondered why ppl hated ST: Nemesis. He was arguably the best char in TNG. Very glad he went with his spot-on instincts and stuck with Data and his version of it rather than going for Riker even tho he needed the money.
“But I had my sea legs. Arrrr 😉” Adorable! Could he be any more lovely? 🥰 He’s such a delight to listen to. I can’t say enough good things about this man. He’s such a brilliant actor/singer/comedian/performer and just all around cool guy. He’s the type of man you could talk to for hours and it would feel like just minutes because you’re so engrossed in his stories ☺️ I could listen to him all day. Anyway, I loved this little spotlight on his career and life. Thanks for posting it!
I get it was too hard get him into doing this (being Data) but, I believe I'm speaking for everyone here, he fits into the character perfectly and Thanks, Brent, for letting us meet a character as awesome as Lt. Cmd. Data!
Like Superman waited for Christopher Reeve. Spock waited for Nimoy, Capt Jack Sparrow waited for J Depp, Wonder Woman for Lynda Carter. It's indeed Destiny, if the glove fits! Or as Checkov quoted "eef Shoe Fits..." 😉
@@MSLmtlpartisan The writers didn't really understand their own writing. The reason pushing Worf into the water was funny, is because Worf is always the butt of jokes. The "strong" Klingon get dunked into the water, hahahahahaha, yeah whatever. Drole. But Data pushing off Crusher was unexpected, and to the crew not funny because she's not usually the butt of the joke (but to the audience it was funny, unintentionally)
As Data pursued his limitless search for humanity, humans wanted to be as pursuing as he was. Such a complete character with an almost complete character-arc, because like reaching lightspeed, you'll never quite get there, despite being SO close.
A very deep, very thoughtful, very talented, intuitive mind this man has. It's no wonder he took the part of DATA and set the bar so high that It's gonna be damn hard for anyone to portray an android as Brent Spiner did...
I was just small child when I began to watch. I never missed an episode. The way the show took on so many social issues that seem to plague us now was Genius! Star Trek helped me become a better man later in life, helping to plant those ideas so early on. Thank you!
studios will not cast him if there is any chance the audience will wont be able to see him as anyone else then data. the studio he was with at the time payed him off instead of giving him another role / exposure. but with out data he would have got nowhere. independence day was a one off, he has got nothing notable since.
Brent is what i miss about Star Trak. As an actor and as the role he played. Philosophy at it`s best. You were entertained and meanwhile you got infused with burning questions. When did Data become a person? the question that is as well relevant to decide wether a braindead coma patien is still a person (bluntly speaking) So much to learn from those guys who tricked us in to believing they are just making an entertaining tv series. But their sinister plan was to give free education injected with a needle that would not hurt but brings joy. I miss that so much :-(
I agree. I read somewhere that the little diddy he sings at around 1:48 was made up by him on the spot, the reactions of the actors are real as they thought he was just going to hum a tune.
I think that the experiance of constant complex working challenges exposed him to both the conflicting demands and benefits of friendship with so many living and unique individuals, that it demanded his personalities coping functions to deep learn valid and changing flexible responses to each new situation and attitude over time. Like any life form evolving to change to survive under a myriad of variable conditions.
Amazing that Brent wanted to play Data for the1st year then he thought that would be it! Brent was SO GOOD at playing Data! Got to give him his respect! Brent is awesome as Data!
i watched tng when i was a kid, it was around 1995 maybe, i fell in love with the show pretty quick, even tho i was indeed a kid, a kid who just wanna see spaceship battles and aliens, but what i got was crew drama, and i enjoyed it, Data is of course my favorite. im currently rewatching it now, 18 years later, i still enjoy it as i enjoyed it when i was a kid, how the hell did they do something good like this? The characters are lovable and well written and well acted, especially Data! thank you Mr Spiner, thank you so much.
I love Brent, one of my favorite actors. Hilarious as the emu farmer in "Dude Where's My Car?" Razor wit, and unabashedly himself when interacting with fans. great dude, I hope to see many more things from him.
As a child I didn't understand Brent played Dr Soong until it was over. Even now, knowing, I still see that character first and Brent a distant second.
How the hell could you never list Night Court Mr Spiner as your background, everyone loves that guy. He's the most absurd character you've ever played and you played him ridiculously well and talented.
Data's "Lifeforms" ditty never fails to crack me up! And his "I no longer want these emotions!" scene with Picard... Wow! We've ALL been there! Usually after a bad breakup, or death in the family. Brent nailed BOTH sides of emotional highs and lows so perfectly! Brent should have won so many awards! That he didn't is a travesty.
I would agree - Data remains one of the most unique of characters. Second only to Spock in very many ways! Brent Spiner brought him round in a great circle. And into one of the most endearing Star Trek characters of all time.
I think that was Gene's whole concept....HE originally wanted a vulcan, CBS said no...so...he created Data. I loved his whole struggle and adventure to define...who is data...and what defines...humanity...I just loved his whole journey to find out.
Brent (Like he would read this, but knowing him, he might) You owned that role, and honestly taught many people through your acting on what it means to be human. From what I have seen in Star Trek comments is a lot of people dont really pay to much attention to the life lessons that you and others have taught the world. So thank you for what you have did
He probably does not read youtube comments, but he is very active on Twitter... if you Tweet what you said at him, there is a good chance he will see it!
This why he was destined to bring data to our life he was preparing for it not even knowing how successful he was going to be along side with the rest of the cast
@@terminat1 I did not type it, I just seen your response and had to point out you are pathetic... and here you are responding to something you posted over a year ago.... feel bad for you
Brent is an absolute genius actor, totally one of a kind! Nobody on this planet could play Data as brilliant as he did. Unfortunately I saw him being pretty selfish one time in a ST convention about 20 years ago, when he refused to get a hug from a young admirer, even after she was crying. By the way, the TNG episode "The Measure Of a Man" is one of the most genius TV I ever seen!
Data is my favorite character! Enjoyed next generation rather than the original as I grew up with it. Brent is an awesome actor! His personality in general is pretty cool too! Wow!!!
I started watching Star Trek in the Netflix Era. First I watched TOS and was fascinated by Spock. OMG what a character how is it possible for a character to have so much depth and then When I started NXG, Data made Spock look like a kid. My greatest regret in life is, that I won't see artificial life forms like Data in my lifetime.
@@kendallrivers1119 It's like commenting on politics I suppose. Hollywood has politics as well. Brent Spiner is just too smart to be on the losing side of things.
He played the part very well . The natured he was able to display was incredibly ! . I am God smack to this day and just grateful for Gene Roddenberry imagination and in fact the moral compass to Life in all forms in the series and the effect cannabis had for my ability to walk again has made me reconsider the possibility that a creative force brought this universe into existence ......."Tao is the Way "/
He says some people did not like the emotional Data and some did. Mhh I think it was his final goal to reach that state so it was exactly what I expected him to become. I was somehow happy for him getting that chip.Maybe the pople that disliked it have not enough empathy to understand or they have no emotions and could identify themself better with the original Data.
I'm repeating myself probably, but THANK YOU MR SPINER for ALL WORK in STAR TREK, including ENT ARGUMENT ARC. You are John Deacon of Star Trek. Build it and retired in time, to preserve glorious style and quality. And you will be yardstick (or milestone!) by which all Android roles in TV and Cinema will be measured against.
Star Trek. the fans: "One last time, thats all we want" Stewart, Jeri Ryan, Jonathan Frakes, Marina Sirtis, and Brent Spiner: *smiles* lets give it a try. Star Trek: Picard. 2020.
And... ST: Picard Falls flat on it's face with its overbearing SJW overtones. Which Sir Patrick Stewart explicitly mandated be in the series, by his own admission. The Federation refuses refugees because in the real world Orange Man Bad? Seriously? Wandering out of Cannon much? Continuing down the drain that Enterprise started, and Discovery accelerated.
Will Davis I was just glad to see some of my favorite characters again. I don’t really like the political stuff, but the story is, and seeing Picard at his vineyard is nice. Do I miss the way Star Trek use time be, yes, but this is the Reality we live in today in almost everything we watch. I just look past the crap in hopes to see some of the old Picard magic of the old days. I like the Orville better because it’s like the classic Trek of my childhood, but seeing Jean Luc Data Riker, Troy, Seven of nine, and who ever else is really what drew me to the show. I just started watching Discovery, and it’s ok, didn’t want to watch it for a long time because of what they did to the Klingons, but I looked pass it, and the story is good, but yeah, I miss classic Trek, and that’s why The Orville is better then all Picard and Discovery too me.
@@willdavis3802 It's so funny to read comments like this all over youtube. It's like people never watched TNG. It always had a humanitarian agenda. But I guess everyone remembers differently... BTW: How is SJW a bad thing? Or are you against social justice?
Three of the true fan favorites of Star Trek were Data, The Doctor and Seven of Nine. I think people love and identify with these three characters so much because in many ways they are all of us or who we are on the inside: slightly awkward, vulnerable yet trying to put on brave fronts, trying to figure humanity and end up being more human because of it... Also they also just happen to be so much fun and hilariously funny. The writers and the actors did amazing jobs with those roles :).
Saw Brent Spiner for the first time on Night Court. If you haven't seen it then find it. The complete difference in characters is startling, and shows how this actor is very talented. Playing a completely logical being is difficult, and the humanity he put into the role, of the struggles that Data went through while trying to understand and become a human was always intelligently done. Sure miss this series.5
Everybody keeps talking about his eyes lol:P they are gorgeous. So are tom Hiddlestons and they both are gorgeous men and goofy as ever and heck, they look alike they tell there stories somewhat the same way. So if someone does a reboot pick :TOM HIDDLESTON!!! I just hope that hiddles will go along with it. Anyway have I said enough? Lol
One of the most underrated actors in the world.
So agree with that. He portrayed so much
Sadly typecast
This is brilliant
Indeed
I am so hoping he reprises Bob Wheeler on the Night Court reboot!

Nemesis was great.
Idk with you're talking about be nemesis was fire
@@ayoub.boughaba You guys are funny. Nemesis was effin' trash.
Data is my all time favorite star trek character...even more than Spock, who's close behind
Seeing his character develop over the series was awesome.
Same. But I like Geordie Le Forge and Worf more than Spock. But he’s up there.
My favourite is Geordi. But Data is his friend. :-)
Data's story is the story of what it means to be truly human. Such an incredible character and Brent Spiner did such a tremendous job!
I couldn't agree more!
Data is my absolute favorite character in the ENTIRE series.
Met him at comic con. Such an awesome genuine person. Chatted with him for close to 20 minutes. One of the highlights of my life.
“But I had my sea legs. Arrrr 😉” Adorable!
Could he be any more lovely? 🥰 He’s such a delight to listen to. I can’t say enough good things about this man. He’s such a brilliant actor/singer/comedian/performer and just all around cool guy. He’s the type of man you could talk to for hours and it would feel like just minutes because you’re so engrossed in his stories ☺️ I could listen to him all day.
Anyway, I loved this little spotlight on his career and life. Thanks for posting it!
A fantastic interview! One of the best. Thank you!
I get it was too hard get him into doing this (being Data) but, I believe I'm speaking for everyone here, he fits into the character perfectly and Thanks, Brent, for letting us meet a character as awesome as Lt. Cmd. Data!
The importance of casting ladies and gentlemen. Brent was absolutely perfect casting, truly brilliant in the role.
Data was the star of the show. My most favorite member of the whole ST world.
I loved Data and his neverending quest to become human.
Spiner should have his own talk show. The guy is just full of intelligence and wit.
Add in Weyoun/Shran and Garak... and dr Phlox. :D
It's like the character was waiting for Brent Spiner.
It fit him like a glove.
True, but HE made tour de force with it....
Like Superman waited for Christopher Reeve. Spock waited for Nimoy, Capt Jack Sparrow waited for J Depp, Wonder Woman for Lynda Carter. It's indeed Destiny, if the glove fits!
Or as Checkov quoted "eef Shoe Fits..." 😉
@@paulpolpiboon9535 Ironman for Robert Downey Jr
Well said Roshar...
When Data pushed Dr. Crusher into the water I cracked up. I guess humor is different if the 24th century.
I thought it was hilarious myself!!
Also thought it was funny!!,
everyone laughed, even the crew on the ship mask their faces ... it was said by the storyline that it wasn't funny.

I just love Brent's voice for some reason.
SAME! He has a beautiful voice, both speaking and singing. ^.^
nasal congestion at its finest but a great singer
I would love if he could replace the late Majel Barrett as the voice of the computer on "contemporary" ships.
me2. love his singing too..
He could do audiobooks.
As Data pursued his limitless search for humanity, humans wanted to be as pursuing as he was.
Such a complete character with an almost complete character-arc, because like reaching lightspeed, you'll never quite get there, despite being SO close.
A very deep, very thoughtful, very talented, intuitive mind this man has. It's no wonder he took the part of DATA and set the bar so high that It's gonna be damn hard for anyone to portray an android as Brent Spiner did...
I can't think of anyone better than Brent Spiner for playing Data. It was meant to him and it was destined for him.
Brent is an awesome actor..............Data was inspirational. Thank you.

I cant understand how come a great freakin actor like SPINER couldnt get a big part in other movies after TNG... i mean wtf did this world come to ?

The entertainment industry shifted towards nonsense over quality, and Brent along with the cast of TNG are talented quality actors.

Gorgeous he maybe 71 now but he hasn't yet lost his good looks love his singing voice and accent and voice xx data I really fancied
Aside from Brent being Brent which is always amazing in this video is the beautiful score of the Late Great Jerry Goldsmith riding along.

Met this man once. He smelled fantastic.
okay, Doctor Creepy... living up to your name
doctor creepy This might make me seem creepy but I’m genuinely curious: What did he smell like? 😂😂😂
Most perceptive - impressive!
Cologne OR natural;
Or maybe you're just in love; The man's pheromones did it for you.
so many of these comments are so odd and SO thirsty
Data's "Lifeforms" ditty never fails to crack me up!

Data is and always will be my favorite sci fi character. A shining example of my internal belief of "AI are people too"
2020 and you are back Data ... but also gone!! Really love the character it was a good one!
I'm a straight up Star Trek fan! Like them all.
HOW DID THEY LEAVE AN EXCEPTIONAL ACTOR OUT OF TV FOR YEARS? THEY ARE SPENDING TALENT. WHERE IS THIS MAN'S AGENT, GUYS?
Maybe he just doesn't want to. I doubt he's strapped for cash
I would agree - Data remains one of the most unique of characters. Second only to Spock in very many ways! Brent Spiner brought him round in a great circle. And into one of the most endearing Star Trek characters of all time.
Data is one of the best characters out of all the Trek shows.
It's him, Picard, The Doctor, Seven of Nine, McCoy, Kirk, Worf, Q and Guinan for me.
Tng had the best cast I've ever seen. I loved pretty much all of them. Particularly Warf and Data.
2019 “you little life forms” hahaha best line
Cool series of interviews of Brent. Data is epic. Spiner's an American icon. Plus he has gorgeous eyes. Thanks and take care.
