Next Generation Blooper Reel Contains At Least One Incident of Captain Picard Walking Into a Door

by Susana Polo | 11:35 am, December 30th, 2012


A set of .gifs ripped from this video have been floating around my Tumblr dash lately, so I’m glad the actual video has now surfaced and I can share it with you. As one friend pointed out to me, flubbed lines and bloopers present a little bit less frustration nowadays with digital filming. In the days of Next Gen, however, each one represented not just some extra time to film the scene, but a tiny bit of wasted, expensive film stock. That might help explain how when you hear the behind the camera crew chime in, they’re not quite as amused.

    Who knew how easily prompted to giggle Michael Down was? ^^

    It was nice to see that last clip with Gene Roddenberry singing. And yeah, who would have guessed that Michael Dorn was a giggle magnet?
