I'm supposed to watch that for 4:15? Do I get paid or something?

That guy looks familiar.

Get over it guys. He's over you.

I loved him in Star Wars.

I just love assholes in the audience yelling things out during his answer Thanks to the loud mouth coont during his talk about his helmet hair, I turned it off.

Petulant? Me? Mooooommmmm!!1!

Does this mean Whil has forgiven you Fark assholes for being yourselves?

Mr_Fabulous: I'm supposed to watch that for 4:15? Do I get paid or something?

Once I saw there was no article and only a video I came right here to the comments to complain about it.

That was awesome. a little sad when he talked about being a kid, but very cool nonetheless.

spentmiles: That guy looks familiar.

Aaron Douglas, Chief Tyrol from BSG. Met him once at a con--really nice guy.

Who was the guy asking the question at the beginning of the video? He looks familiar but I can't place him.

Savage Belief: Does this mean Whil has forgiven you Fark assholes for being yourselves?

Only a few Fark assholes talked to Adam Savage about raping Kari Byron. Most of them were too busy fapping to keyboard. Still I guess it only takes one or two rape fantasies to drive off a TV icon for good.

They must be very proud.

That's the worst part about attending these things. People are such farktards. SHUT UP AND LISTEN!

What's this then?

Shut up, Wheaton. Just shut up.

"Mister Worf, save the bridge!"

Worf leaps over the security console, grabs Ensign Crusher, and neatly snaps his neck. The surrounding bridge crew and invading aliens applaud politely.

"Thank you, Mister Worf. That will be all."

Seriously? You're calling wilweaton and/or adam savage "TV Icon's"? You'd have to dig to lower the bar further.

Frakes gets older and better looking. SOB.

Why is it you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone?

I actually grew up with the show and liked it, unlike most of the people who will eventually end up commenting here.

In all seriousness, I'd like to see the whole Q&A session if it's released somewhere, but this is the only bit that keeps getting passed around.

It's a good bit, if you happen to a fan of the show or were back in the day. If not, I can't imagine why anyone would care or be interested.

/Just saying.

cmcl: Shut up, Wheaton. Just shut up.

This

/Are slashies and "this" still acceptable here?
//I've been gone a long time.

So, uh, the dude from BSG emcees conventions? Damn, he's fallen off hard

Shazam999: Frakes gets older and better looking. SOB.

Is that Frakes to the left of Wil in the preview screenshot? It must be that particular frame of him, he kinda looked like John "Walter Bishop" Noble to me for a second.

Savage Belief: Does this mean Whil has forgiven you Fark assholes for being yourselves?

What's all this about? Did you guys eff off Wil?

I admit I was one of the Wesley-haters back in the day, and re-watching the show he does still get annoying at points. However, Wheaton's innate coolness won me over. One of the things I love about ST:TNG to this day is that the cast seemed to genuinely like one another. That's rare. You hear about the ego trips and infighting on long running programs like M*A*S*H, etc. and it's disillusioning. But these people really did become kind of a family and that's just cool.

He was great in Stand By Me.

Not sure why this gets the Wheaton tag . . .

Supposedly Adam Savage used to post semi-regularly and thanks to Fark.com email notification trolls would log on quickly and start telling Adam what they would do to Kari. I guess he got tired of hearing it and pretty much quit posting.

What happened with Wheaton?

How is it that Patrick Stewart never gets any older? Does he have a painting up in his attic or something?

Here he is in Excalibur (1981).

As someone else posted above, that's appalling. We've got some real quality folk in these here forums.

He got tired of listening to Farkettes telling him what they would do to Patrick Stewart's bald pate. If you thought the comments about Kari were disgusting...

bhcompy: So, uh, the dude from BSG emcees conventions? Damn, he's fallen off hard

His post-BSG role was the lead of a "gritty cop drama" called The Bridge. You can think of it as Toronto's version of The Shield. I don't think it lasted beyond its first season. It was too expensive to film and didn't draw the viewership that Flashpoint did. Instead they may be re-working the actor into some kind of legal series.

Stuff like this.

He was great in Lost in Space.

The video in the submitted site is a youtube video. If you click the logo in the lower right hand corner of the video frame, it will open the video's Youtube page. Look at "related videos" and you'll see "TNG EXPOsed 1/5". Watch that video, and follow the link for 2/5, 3/5, etc. and I think you'll see a good amount of it.

Okay, I officially love* LeVar Burton. He was the only reason I ever watched TNG as a kid, anyway.

*Not romantically. He's old enough to be my dad.

Vertdang: That was awesome. a little sad when he talked about being a kid, but very cool nonetheless.

I have to admit I don't follow his blog or anything and I can't think of any other interviews I've seen/heard him on but I am a Nerdist listener and he's been interesting on the occasional podcast. If you're interested in hearing him talk for almost 2 hours about what his experience was really like on ST: TNG, making Stand By Me, and recognizing that he was an angry asshole you should check it out. It was a pretty entertaining interview. Mostly because he and the host, Chris Hardwick, were roommates for a period so you felt like it really was just like two dude just shooting the sh*t.

He must be pretty damn special if they named a whole suburb of Washington, DC after him.

anybody else creeped out a bit by Ryker fondling his hair and Wil's head resting on his shoulder?

I hate it when he's mean to Sheldon....

also, was Fark a bit of a Sheldon to him?

OnlyM3: Seriously? You're calling wilweaton and/or adam savage "TV Icon's"? You'd have to dig to lower the bar further.

No, he's calling them "TV Icons."

The Flexecutioner: anybody else creeped out a bit by Ryker fondling his hair and Wil's head resting on his shoulder?

Nope. I thought it was a positive gesture.

Rewatching TNG, I've come to see Geordi as a bigger uber-nerd than Wesley ever was. He had the social-awkwardness, the creeping on Leah Braum with the holodeck persona.

/still thought Geordi was awesome

Well the head resting thing was more a funny/sweet gesture, but the hair fondling set off a radar, less so for a 'gay' vibe but more so for the "he's still a little kid to me" vibe. But he did a good speech and got them all weepy over it. I still enjoyed it.

You know he was pounding that holographic pussy.

I can't see John Noble anymore without hearing Lord Denethor's rant about being Steward of Gondor as a voiceover in my head.
