@@kobayashibrynhild9622 lol.. The fact that you use the word "cuck" shows us all that you learned nothing from such a forward-thinking franchise like Star Trek. Why are you even here?
My father didn't usually watch Star Trek with me, but one Saturday he sat down and watched an episode of TNG with me. Dad retired as a full colonel at the end of 28.5 years of service. At the end of the episode he stated that Picard was one of the few fictional officers he'd seen that he would trust and serve with. He wasn't just talking sci-fi, either.
You didn't talk about the time he was forced to live an entire lifespan as a member of a dead race, in the space of a few hours. He lived as a family man until his death in this alternate life, and became a musician. On his death in the alternate life, he woke in his real one, and cannot forget any of it. He is the last living repository of a dead spacefaring species' culture, and some of his hobbies, views, and reservations change as a result.
Found this was one of the best episodes and I loved the fact that even many episodes later you still have call backs to this when he plays that small flute.
Inner light; such a great episode. I tear up every time I remember the final scene, when Riker gives him the flute. Such an amazing moment, and such an amazing actor!
My theory of Picard's detachment from his crew is that he was so distraught by the loss of Jack Crusher, his 1st officer and best friend, that he consciously chose to maintain professional detachment from his crew moving forward. Which is why the only people he seems very close too on the Enterprise are Dr Crusher who is an old friend, and Guinan who saw past his cold exterior and went out of her way to become close to him. But 7 years into the mission he discovers that he does indeed consider the Enterprise crew to be his close friends and family and having seen a future where many of the crew aren't even on speaking terms he decides to change his ways. By symbolically joining the Officers poker game he is deciding to embrace the relationships instead of always maintaining his distance, and they happily welcome him to join the game.
It really parallels Patrick Stewart himself. He was a classically trained actor who spent his entire career on the stage and took his work extremely seriously. Most of the cast were Hollywood actors who were much more fun-loving and jokey than what Stewart was used to. The disconnect resulted in Stewart being detached and sometimes a pain to work with in the early years. There was an infamous incident where he yelled at fellow members "THIS IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE 'FUN'". But he eventually came around and embraced his new job. He became "one of the boys" on even made a career for himself in Hollywood. Something even he thought he'd never do.
He WAS mine too, until Star Trek Picard where he downroad to became a useless man. Its a destruction of a EXTRAORDINARY CAPTAIN. Now we only have CAPTAIN SISKO that they ca not destroy anymore.
Surprised you didn't mention one event: the death of his entire close family in a housefire. His brother, sister in law and nephew die and it nearly breaks him.
Yeah, I always count that as well. People argue that it "wasn't real", but reality is subjective, much like the concept of what is "normal". Even Q challenges the notion of reality.
This is an absolutely amazing fictional biography! I have been a lifelong Star Trek fan for over 25 years, I've watched every series and movie too many times to count, played the video games, and even read a few of the books. Yet, there were things listed in this video that I never knew were considered cannon. A very serious bravo to you...!
@@Endeva09 While i would love to sea that...i doubt there is an Actor that as you say could play a Young Patrick Stewart. I honestley doubt that Picard would have been as great as he was with a diffrent actor. What probabley would work better would be...a Anime our a Book that is declared Alpha Canon.
Hold on...hold on.. so Picards assimilation and the battle of wolf 359 were in different years? So the Borg ruined new years? The evil cyborg bastards!!
Yeah due to the stardates matching season numbers it means every cliffhanger happened on new years eve or new.. star even... I don't know, that's why they don't have holidays in the future.
They truly are the most despicable of enemies. Even the Klingons atleast have the decencie of not attacking at new year ore Christmas....does Starfleet even celebrate Christmas?
Picard deserves more of an action hero rep. The man trains for and leads a black ops mission behind enemy lines in middle aged, during which he’s captured, tortured for more than a week, breaks before being returned to the Federation, and goes back to commanding the Enterprise like nothing happened. James T Kirk eat your heart out.
We need a series that explores the potential new relationship between the Federation and the Romulans, as well as the rebuilding of the Federation, Romulans, Klingons, and Cardassians after the Dominion War. There's so much potential there.
Great episode. I would recommend the dramatically underrated (though for understandable reasons) episode "The Perfect Mate" as an episode with insight into Picard. The way Kamala (I think that's her name) adapts to Picard makes it a great character study, if one can overlook the chauvinist undertones in the episode.
I keep wishing he was real (as opposed to a character) as would be a good candidate for US president or basically any president/prime minister as seems more competent than many of the actual ones. He often reminds me a bit of my dad though chillier attitude (than my dad).
There is one little clause that would keep him out of office even if he did exist...it's that dumb little line that states 'Those who run for office for POTUS must be born as a US citizen. Dual citizenship or citizenship gained after arriving in the country is grounds for disqualification.' But you're absolutely right. That man is a presidential candidate I'd vote for.
I have started rewatching all the Star Trek TV shows. I watched TNG and DS9 as a kid, but right now I am at the end of the 4th season of TNG. I don't remember a lot of DS9 and have yet to see Voyager or Enterprise (or the other new series), but I go back and forth between Picard and Kirk being my favorite captain. Kirk was always proactive and on top of things whereas Picard relied more on the expertise of his crew and was much more fallible than Kirk. Kirk rarely showed concern for dead redshirts whereas Picard seemed to be more concerned.
@Martin Dennis Kirk actually doesnt have sex with nearly as many women as his reputation in TOS would seem. While they do introduce a lot of his past relationships, they remember him fondly and typically loyal. If memory serves he only has one "one night stand" in the show, which was for the purpose of deception as he was trapped by the people who moved so fast everyone else is frozen in time.
I am now just subscribed after watching that two-parter about the longest-serving captain of the Enterprise and now watching this excellent look into Captain Picard's profile!
You forgot the other, more famous 'Picard Maneuver': the constant tugging and adjusting of his uniform! I thought that was going to be the 'Picard Maneuver' lol.
@@jasoncutler5640 Weeeeell... In theory that timeline could still exist to some extent. Data may well be reborn in B4 in the upcoming Picard series (or its a holodeck program, but...) and he may still have married Dr Crusher at some point.
I’m impressed by the approach that you’re taking with these personnel files. I’m still waiting for one about James Tiberius Kirk. He’s the one we all want to see your personnel file on.
I drew a lot of my leadership abilities from Jean-Luc Picard. He is a great man and one of Starfleet's finest captains. If it were possible, I would be honored to serve under his command.
2nd best captain behind Sisco, but i will admit this, Piccard went threw more traumatic shit than any other captain. stabbed, assimilated, living a lifetime in a few minutes, tortured by the cardassians,and having to deal with Wesley...he is a BEAST!
"Temarc! The river Temarc in winter!" "Darmok...?" "...and Jalad at Tanagra. Darmok and Jalad... on the ocean." "Sokath, his eyes open!" "The beast at Tanagra. Uzani, his army. Shaka, when the walls fell." Greatest TNG episode ever Imo
My favorite Star Trek character. I've been a fan since the very first Star Trek episode with Kirk & Spock, but Picard's maturity is truly inspirational. Excellent video; very well done!
Kind of a bummer that even the new novels are not considered canon, there is some really good stuff in the Destiny series. Plus Data is brought back to life in the books..
8:00 - it seems that Picard has been out there for 120years or so. Someone might have noticed the same thing, but the timeline starts from 2255 and ends at 2379 x)
one thing you failed to mention is that the outcome of his fight for ai rights was wat lead to the only reason Data was allowed the rank of commander as before these came to be it was impossible for any A.i life was allowed to achive any rank other than crewmen
In terms of rank: as the commanding officer of the Federation flagship, shouldn’t he be a Commodore, or is that simply a Captain that has two or more ships under their command, without a Fleet Admiral?
A Captain of the flagship has seniority over another Captain if both vessels are needed. The Flag Captain would then technically be addressed as Commodore as they are the senior in command. This would likewise also be the rank given to a section commander in any star system that commands more than one ship but is not an Admiral.
Jean Luc Picard, the very first BOLD man I have fell in love with. The best captain in Starfleet, we share the French touch and I got to meet the icon in a convention in 1991. Consequently, I had to marry a bold man that I had to convert into a Star Trek fan.
He is the best of all captains .... in all the Star Trek series .... but the man Patrick Stewart one of the greatest men to walk the face of the earth .... my tv dad growing up I learned so much watching him and if I’m so lucky in life to model the character he played which I strive for to be more like him ...the human race is so busy fighting amongst one another.... we would all be so lucky to have a leader like Jean luc picard perhaps we would have a more peaceful world to live in .... the idealism of Star Trek you can only hope one day the human race unites one day to work together.... instead of money and greed which seems to be the new moral standard for society .... one day I hope we can evolve to work together in a united effort To better the human race.... instead of fighting amongst one another ...
Need to update this video with the event's of "Picard" his epic last adventure in the Star Trek Univers... talk about a legend. We need more captain Picards in the world...
3:40 Picard takes the Stargazer almost 100 years into the past to have an encounter with the Ferengi, losing the ship in the process. It's not clear how the crew got back to the present.
How the hell can you put all that together? Well done, love your work. You know the most interesting characters in any story are those with flaws and inabilities in their character. So how does Mr perfect Picard, become such a well loved possibly THE most loved character along with Spok and Kirk, in the franchise. I think he needs a few flaws. He should be lonely as hell.
I wonder what Patrick Stewart (as a man, not an actor) would feel about this dissertation. How would he respond, what would his emotional and intellectual responses be? I think you [Certifiably] did a great job digging into the complete methos and cannon of our Capt. Good show.
So the character of Picard was 59 yrs old when he assumed command of the enterprise? I never knew a - at that time - 47 yr old Stewart played such an old dude. I always assumed, the characters and the actors age was the identical. Silly me.
GOOD JOB RICK! I never realized picard was almost 80 by the time of Nemesis. I thought he was in his early 60's tops but they do have some amazing fucking medical prowess in the 24th century and if any of us lived with that kind of medical tech available i guess we would be badass 80 year olds in fine health too.
I always saw Picard as the best of a Tactical Commander, Hathway as the best Science Commander, and Sisko as the best Operations Commander, thus making them somewhat of a trinity of what it means to be a Commander in Starfleet.
So, Enterprise did very little during the dominion war? I would've thought Picard and his vessel would've at least help diplomatic relations/war effort with the Klingons and Romulans given their history
Sir, I quite enjoy your channel. I actually just discovered your channel last night, but I really enjoy it. You like Star Trek and Doctor Who like me and I would like to see a review or run through of it too.

Yeah, I always count that as well. People argue that it "wasn't real", but reality is subjective, much like the concept of what is "normal". Even Q challenges the notion of reality.
It was real for the person who's life he was living. Similar to the Assassin's Creed concept.
an excellent and emotional episode...a personal favorite
If the Beta stuff was canon, he later marries Doctor Crusher and they have a son.
You mean certainly right? Because I promise that Picard thinks of them as his family. What others think isn't really relevant at all.

I wonder what Patrick Stewart (as a man, not an actor) would feel about this dissertation. How would he respond, what would his emotional and intellectual responses be? I think you [Certifiably] did a great job digging into the complete methos and cannon of our Capt. Good show.
So the character of Picard was 59 yrs old when he assumed command of the enterprise? I never knew a - at that time - 47 yr old Stewart played such an old dude. I always assumed, the characters and the actors age was the identical. Silly me.
GOOD JOB RICK! I never realized picard was almost 80 by the time of Nemesis. I thought he was in his early 60's tops but they do have some amazing fucking medical prowess in the 24th century and if any of us lived with that kind of medical tech available i guess we would be badass 80 year olds in fine health too.
I always saw Picard as the best of a Tactical Commander, Hathway as the best Science Commander, and Sisko as the best Operations Commander, thus making them somewhat of a trinity of what it means to be a Commander in Starfleet.
So, Enterprise did very little during the dominion war? I would've thought Picard and his vessel would've at least help diplomatic relations/war effort with the Klingons and Romulans given their history
as the Enterprise being the flagship off the ufp, it most likely would have been on the front lines.
I wouldn't count first contact with the Borg as an achievement considering how much death and destruction they caused.
You forgot to include when he battled magneto and his brotherhood
What ever happened to that race of parasite aliens that “possess” and infiltrated the officers of Starfleet?
Novo Eduardo AC don’t tell anyone but there the plot of season 3 of deacovery
Definitely didn’t pull it out of my ass
That episode was AWESOME.
That's the real story of how romulus star went supernova ....#lookintoit
Great work, keep it up.
He is pretty good with a flute, too.
Nice breakdown. Just one obvious mistake: Picard was born in La Barre. (That is the name of five real communes in France.) \\//,
Best. Captain. *EVER* !!!
Sir, I quite enjoy your channel. I actually just discovered your channel last night, but I really enjoy it. You like Star Trek and Doctor Who like me and I would like to see a review or run through of it too.
I could have sworn he spent the year before taking command of the Enterprise working as Chief of Staff for the Federation President.
You should do a personal file on Captian/Admiral James T. Kirk.
Captian Russell // Collection, Movie, Star Trek Man you mean Captain Kirk? That man was demoted.
I know this is old, If you ever update anything to this video, please pay attention that you mistyped the dates at the top of the Left hand column (viewer pov). You have them as 22 instead of 23. arbitrary timestamp is 5:33.
