Picard's Funniest Moments 

Incredible that neither compilation has Picard on Dating Advice when Data asks

Getting back to the roots of his acting career. There was also the scene in The Undiscovered Country where the Klingon general (Christopher Plummer) recites from Julius Caesar. "Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war."

He has done Shakesphere in the past in theater.

Josh B, I'm well aware of Stewart's work with the Royal Shakespeare Company. In fact, it was his common lament, usually during scenes where they were depicting attacks on the Enterprise, "Sixteen years with the Royal Shakespeare Company for this!" So, it's apparent his enjoyment where he could recite Shakespearean monologues during his role as Captain Picard. I'm sure the writers did what they could to add these literary elements for his sake whenever they could.

Well what else do you do when you've got "Shakespearian actor Patrick Stewart at your disposal than give him a bit of Shakespeare to recite like he's back in the old day job. (poor guy , and just when he thought he was diversifying.

I loved Patrick Stewart reciting Shakespeare, but I also liked the glimpses of Riker looking to his right like "is he serious?"

That's a seasoned professional actor for you!

It's an actual language and he perfected it!

he does that with resounding grace on american dad. after half a century in show business, he can do whatever he wants

@@NewPaulActs17 agreed

I see you too watched the honest trailer

Watching some of the Star trek Conventions, I agree. Patrick definetly "Loosened up" and the the full cast had a great time after he grew a sense of humor!!

I wouldn't say that means he's a jerk.

Enderman_of_D00M as someone who hasn’t seen a single episode of that show (yet), I’m absolutely confused by this scene tbh. But also utterly intrigued

I ADORE Q, he is irritating, exasperating, egotistical, but so verrrrrry charming in his mischievous way ! So overtly theatrical and dramatic, extremely handsome in my opinion, and still when his interference becomes clear he always seems to teach some quite valuable lessons ! LOVE HIMMMMMM ❤️❤️❤️

I hate and like Q at the same time

@@susieok2732 I seriously do hope that the actor reprises his role as Q in the Picard series!

Q is hilarious but also lets a lot of people die

"I insist you return to my side immediately" is just such a perplexingly weird and awkward statement I have a meltdown every time I see this episode lol

With a lot of help from Shakespeare!

Agreed.

If this is true then i'm glad the director kept it in :) I always love it when a real and un-planned moment makes it into the final episode or movie. I always love this side of actors and their profession.

@@KRAFTWERK2K6 so true…. It’s such a brilliant and completely unexpected moment!!!

I always thought that he was laughing for real in this scene but didnt have it confirmed. I'm so happy this stayed in

The Space-Irish episode, it does kinda bother me a bit. And in season 1 or season 2 there is an episode that mixes-up Black folks with “Space Arabians,” and *that* one is problematic and difficult to watch also. {Forgive my understatement ? It’s super racist, and seems to ignore the anti-racist message of TOS’s “left half white, right side black” aliens…}. Anyhow, in that early TNG episode, Tasha is supposed to be somebody’s {Lü-Tahn ‘s ? } new favourite wife (against her will). Imma check if Colm Meaney is onscreen in the “Space Irish” episode, because he put his foot down regarding that sort of nonsense later in Deep Space Nine {when some new aliens take on the forms of imaginary and historical figures on the station, the Rumple-Stilskin they found with Molly *had* been written to be a leprechaun, and legend has it that Colm Meaney was like: “have you writers NOT yet learned your lesson ? Do I have to quit over this ? If you people think you’re gonna press your ONE Irish cast member into doing a leprechaun episode… if I need to explain to you what’s wrong with that… “ (I wonder if his visual aid in teaching would be a single American finger straight up, or if it’d be the back of the hand with index + middle finger both extended up like many folks do overseas… {I wonder if that’s exclusively an English thing, in which case Colm might not choose that… } “Mr. Meaney, I need some Irish culture education 👋” But yah, you’re not supposed to turn the person you’re offending into your ethnicity-sensitivity-training person. That’s kind of a “double dis.” People who are already life-long tired of the oversimplified preconceived notions about how their ethnicity or skin color exists in the minds and affects the behaviours of others…. You’ve JUST pissed that person off, or at the very least annoyed them. That “othered” person is highly likely not to have that Jesus of Nazareth or Rev. Dr. MLK Jr. kindness-and-loving teaching modality going on (at least in that moment).

Barclay... Not broccoli...

Menaceblue3 nah, it’s broccoli ;)

@@Menaceblue3 The joke flew over your head at warp 9

One of my favorite lines EVER!!!🤣🤣

It was such a properly pronounced "brocc-ol-i" I have never ever heard it said with such distinction. LOL

the most dreaded words on Enterprise-D

👏😂

Jean Luc!!! Shit!

It's definitely like you don't need to explain anything further, when her mother is onboard, you don't need to go into any details.

Oh crap she's here!

If the starship was a building with an open window you could just picture him running out of the window never to be heard from again.

paulreg Red alert

*meanwhile in Picard’s dreams* Redshirt: We’re in position to beam up Lwaxana, captain. Picard: Computer, set auto-destruct. All hands, abandon ship. Redshirt: Sir?!? Picard: You heard me. Abandon ship! Redshirt: *somehow dies*

it was really awkward

Loved it lol

Yeh what about it?

They really had the man play himself, how savage

And after words "Tell me more" I hear "You have to call again" and certain beat.

Brilliant.

You sir, are a true Trekker for the ages. I salute you!

Lol so good 👍🏻👍🏻😂

His eyes wide... in winter. Shaka, when coffee fell

Because Patrick Stewart was an accomplished actor. William Shatner couldn't act until years after Star Trek ended for him.

Patrick Stewart is one of my all time Heroes ! Yes, I'm hijacking most comments on this video, but this is a great video of one of my favourite fictional characters of all time and my most admired heroes so I shall engage comments at warp nine 😂

@@susieok2732 Shut up, Susie! Jk ;)

@panda44r 🤣🤣

panda44r Maybe not all Shatner can be the producers and directors asking for that. I don’t recall his pauses being so dramatic in westerns and TJ Hooker.

I think the choir knows that...

Neldidellavittoria gotta rewind a couple times for the delivery of that line, let alone the wonderfull content it conveys

Neldidellavittoria *Picard Makes it So*

"You sat in my chair"

“YOU’LL GET NOTHING AND LIKE!!!..(delay, Picard jumps at Wesley bites a chunk outta his cheek)”

I bet he prefered warp 10 :D

Would not have been fast enough either XD If there was a way for instant transportation, he would have done that.

I remember when I watched that scene with my mother. She quipped: "Home, James." (Her own mother is from England; therefore she understands British dry humour only too well).

"I'll be down in Engineering, helping them shovel the coal."

*Picard:* Mister Crusher. Set course for Betazed! Warp ten. *Crusher:* But, sir, that speed is impossible. *Picard:* _(death glare)_ *Crusher:* I'll make it so...

She is!

Lmfao

I thought that was hilarious when she was ordering food, and asking "computer..." I could not stop laughing. That joke would never get old. BARRETT actress was in original series now in TNG and voice of computer. She really does get around huh.

@@beverlyanne5699 Ah, we miss her dearly.

Omg!

Which is actually harder than acting good.

Does that include Captain...

One of the greatest :)

Also the best actor of the lot, if you ask me

Di0 besides porthos on john archers ship. Hes the best actor of all star trek.

I don't believe You remember a certain.... James T Kirk...

Gotta love Data's reaction as well :D

Data was 100% right that parenting is about creating a new life lol. Picard didn't understand because he never had children of his own.

His delivery of "....yes, indeed." Nearly teared me up.

Which episode was it?

Jean Luc!! Shit!!!!

@@prince-solomon The one where Lwaxana falls in love with the scientist who had to kill himself because he got too old

"Half a Life", season 4, episode 22, with David Ogden Stiers from MASH (Major Charles Emerson Winchester the Third :P)

David Mitchell Yeah, and did I miss Picard and Data sharing quarters on the Klingon ship? Props to Spiner for that.

I think you are referring to the episode Allegiance. I thought about including that scene, but admittedly being really nerdy (read: technical) about it, that wasn't actually Picard and instead an alien posing as Picard so I didn't include it. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-T7Vadzjac6g.html

Yes, I think you're being too technical. It was an alien in control, but it was Picard's body performing the action. What makes it funny is imagining what the crew is thinking when they see Picard doing that.

I remember that one. He goes in and start singing a bar song and gets everyone else to join in. The exact opposite of what the real picard would do. In this case, would never do.

@@trevorlambert4226: No, Picard was stuck in a prison with two other men as a lab experiment.

Come cheer up my lads, ‘tis today glory we steer

Oh crap!

Triple wammy when counselor Troi's mother is on board......Arghhhhh .poor Captain just can't get away from that Betazed.........I feel for him.

Mauve alert... my mother is aboard.

or two

Is it *The Loss* ? :P

That was one of the funniest too.

20oztsunami " you'll never look at your hairline again in the same way"" Sure, because I'm sure baldness hasn't been cured by the 24th fucking century, to the point that nobody would care about it. Please.

I hope we will rid ourselves of the idea that baldness is something that needs a cure before we invent a cure.

Sure, because the 24th century humans portrayed in Star Trek are petty as fuck to the point of thinking baldness is a disease that needs to be cured. Please.

niizzy a It's easy to call it petty when it's an affliction you don't suffer yourself isn't it?

captainfury2007 He was 14 then

Pyrrhic Victory make it so

Pyrrhic Victory The meme that launched a thousand starships.

Which part of this video compilation was that? I mean can you give me the time stamp?

im the age now Patrick was when he said that. and i have just as little knowledge as Picard.

“Where filming the scene where Picard, Riker and Worf investigate the fire in the cargo bay set by the Irish people, Patrick Stewart found the dialogue so hilarious, he started laughing, and forced himself to turn his back to the camera. When Jonathan Frakes approached him in-character as Riker, Stewart, still laughing, turned around and improvised the line about bowing to the absurd.”

@@pantspantsrevolution where is that quote from?

@@allison8654 I looked it up on Internet movie database otherwise known as IMDb

in voyager the computer says warp core breach much sooner than you think.

But there are so many first ladys in my opinion :D Janeway, Beverly Crusher :D the pretty Troi daughter and Uhura :D

That’s number 1

Hinagiku Games n' Stuff Except that Majel Barrett was also number 1 in the pilot, Nurse Chapel, the voice of the computer, and the wife of the show’s creator!

Hahahaha

Yea but at the end Odo seemed to have come to care for her

Except Odo actually liked her. But she lost him to Kira. Then Kira lost him to his own kind.

@@RobespierreThePoof Its his show. He created it. He can cast who he wants. Besides, she was Amazing in every frikkin appearance in TNG and DS9. Does it bother you because maybe she didnt have to go through a rigorous casting situation? sheesh...

Do you know what “merde” means? I do.

@@darcybrummett7004 Je parle français assez bien.

Agreed. She did a very good job.

Yep. That's how you say the s-word in Star Trek. Use a language most of the (American) audience won't understand. :D

Connor MacLeod Initially I thought he said "mierde" which is Spanish for shit. But he's French, so.....

Oddly enough, where I live in Ohio french is a very common second language, to the point where we have bi lingual french and english signs. So naturally, a lot of us grew up knowing a bit of french. When he said "Merde" I actually dropped my jaw and laughed as a kid because he said a bad word. (This was back in the early 90's when I first saw the episode)

Really? Oh boy. XD

To be honest, it was something I never really thought anything of until I joined the army, left Ohio, then moved back.

Mirab, with sails unfurled

Sokath, his eyes uncovered! =D
