    I believe his point is being in way too many episodes before being dropped and forgotten about for years.

      Hey, I like Alexander! And Lwaxana Troi. And the episode that they both star in where we get to see Data in drag.

        That’s a different one, for a fistful of datas should be the title. It’s worf and alexander playing a holodeck western, there is a malfunction that injects data into some recreational programs (and vice versa). This then bit by bit turns every person in the simulation into versions of data, including the, uh, voluptuous bartender who has a thing for the sheriff (played by worf)

          The real beauty of this is that we found out there is no point of diminishing returns on Brent Spiner as an android.

            That and it’s always fun to see Brent Spiner’s comedic skills come out, because he’s very funny. He was in a bunch of sitcoms before TNG, most notably an entertaining run on Night Court.

              The character on North Court is actually Data staying undercover while lost in the past, again.

          Oops, you’re right! Got them mixed up. Clearly it’s been too long since I’ve watched Next Gen.

        “Fistful of Datas” has Data in drag but I don’t think Lwaxana was in that. Are you thinking of “Cost of Living”? I like that one. It was filmed not long after Gene died and you can see it in Majel’s performance. She gives a speech about very old and alone, and you really feel it.

        I am with you with Lwaxana, but Alexander is a step too far for me.

    Thank you for the belly laugh, it was sorely needed.

    I’m no Alexander hater, but I do believe that his early appearances could have been done with a mannequin and voiceover to the same level of effectiveness. (Possibly his later appearances too, but it’s been 15+ years since I last watched those episodes.)

      I like Alexander as a plot device. I do not like Alexander as an actual onscreen character

    He looks more like eight

    Worf: … no … he has not eaten in four days … food is not a requirement

    I don’t know what he is for, I don’t know what he is against, the kid don’t have any agenda. What kind of bullshit is that?

    In DS9 they showed Alexander as a young teen and I wanted to see more of him. Sort of a young Worf.

      In some ways, I thought that Alexander was even worse, TBH.

        Well he had more range due to the older actor so they could’ve done more with that. He was kinda cute too. Being all clumsy and overly excited and all.
