A Next Gen star wasn't too thrilled with the recent Star Trek reunion
grand finale didn’t just bring back Patrick Stewart to give his titular character the send-off he deserved; it brought back several members ofto do the same. Starfleet officers such as Worf, Data, Riker, Deanna Troi, Beverly Crusher, and Geordi La Forge all made a comeback to end their story in a shocking and worthwhile fashion.
Surprisingly enough, one veteran member of thefranchise didn’t think that the reunion went as well as it could have. While the officers of the Enterprise might not reprise their roles anytime soon, if ever, one major actor is willing to dish the dirt., actress Marina Sirtis discussed the reunion that brought back her character, Deanna Troi, with the rest of the former Enterprise crew. Unfortunately, while Sirtis was originally excited to return, she mentions that the use of smartphones put a big damper on the comeback: “I have to be honest. I was so looking forward to it, I really was. Because we laughed for seven years on. Absolutely laughed. But what’s happened since then? Mobile phones. Everyone is stuck behind their screens. I’ve come all the way from bloody England, and you can’t come out from behind your scenes to freakin’ talk to me? So yeah, it really changed the whole atmosphere on set. Very, very different. No one talks. Everyone’s looking at their screens. The sense of community is gone because you’re not talking. I found it quite depressing, actually.”. Presumably set to follow the son of Picard as he follows in his father’s footsteps, Sirtis threw water on the idea that this show would one day land on the small screen.is never gonna happen.” Marina confirmed in a recent interview, “You know, you hate hearing the truth. There is not a single studio in America that is gonna make a series where most of the leading actors are over 70 years old. I’m sorry, but that’s just the truth. It’s just Hollywood.”. Luckily, or perhaps unluckily if you weren’t a fan of Starfleet, not only is a second season confirmed, but it has already been filmed, meaning this new generation is sticking around for at least a little longer. While it has yet to receive a release date, season two might arrive next year following the first season debut.Netflix’s Overlooked Pokemon Series Is Back With New Episodes at the Perfect Time4 Years Ago Today, A Fan Favorite Power Rangers Duo Made Their Big DebutPower Rangers Introduces Brand New Ranger In Dream Crossover Series
