Marina Sirtis and Brent Spiners Gag Reel?

Marina Sirtis at Brent Spiner's Paramount Trailer

In an interview taken at the Paramount Studios lot in the early 90's, Brent Spiner (whos really Data the android in Star Trek (TNG) gets rousted by co star Marina Sirtis. Rather innocently "Counsellor Deanna Troi" grabs the scoop nailing Spiner "in the act." Despite the old footage, its fun watching these two fooling around. Troi's betazoid instincts cuts straight to the chase. She tells us, "Brent Spiner, Data the android, possibly the most popular character on the show"[STAR TREK TNG] which I thought was very classy of her.





"Our little Scoop!" - After banging on his trailer door for a while, Sirtis gives Spiner plenty of time. The fun begins when Brent emerges from his trailer stammering "what what????"..... While the rapport between Sirtis and Spiner is genuine. These guys definitely won me over and I'm still wondering, is this interview a "gag" or the real deal?  What do you think?

Marina explains: "I'm here with Movietime, remember?" "Oh yeah, right, right, right, right" stammers a hungover Spiner trying to pull himself together. After a little broadway melodrama Spiner finally agrees to hold up his end of the bargain. So what I wonder happens next? 

Do you think Brent Spiner slept in his trailer during the filming of Star Trek TNG's entire "smash hit" tv show? Whatever Marina's reasons were for filming this epic, I think their performance deserves an oscar for its comedic value.

What say you? Gag Reel or Real deal?

Star Trek TNG Passion Quiz Results

The Enterprise NCC 1701-D crew have amused trek fans with lovey dovey, dreamy encounters over the years. Remember I posted a Sci Fi Quiz on the 18th June? Well, here are the results for the Star Trek TNG Passion Quiz. I betcha you knew some of them allready! Look away now trekkers, if you want to still take the quiz. So what are the dreamy statistics?



1. How many women have kissed Captain Jean Luc Picard? Answer: 7. A holowoman in the Big Goodbye. Nella Darrin in Lesson. Picard's memory wife in the Inner Light. Vash in Captains Holiday and Qpid. Marta in Tapestry. Deanna Troi and Picard's brothers wife in Family. Not too bad for the old guy?

2. Next up we've got Commander Riker, can you remember how many women have intimate interludes with big beard? Answer: 6. Not surprising really, seeing as he has this whole imzadi thing going for him with Councellor Troi. Ensign Ro in Conundrum. Mistres Beatta in Angel One. Etana Jol in the Game. Brenna O' Dell in Up The Long Ladder. Lal in the Offspring, although, technically she was just an android.



3. How many women fall for Commander Data ? Yes, you're reading right. Data's the brainy dude and he's Lal's father, another android! Answer: Three. Yar in The Naked Now. Chief of Security Yar was drunk. Jenna D' Sora in In Theory was on the rebound. Ardian McKenzie in The Ensigns of Command.



4. How many women make a pass at Councellor Troi? Answer: 6. Barclay in The Nth Degree. Aaron Conor in The Masterpiece Society. Riker's dad in The Icarus Factor. Riva in Loud as a Whisper. Devinoni Ral in The Price, who had no scruples. Liator in Justice. Deanna's a betazoid heritage gives her the ability to "read you" and tell whether you're hiding something, which comes in very handy for Picard when some Romulan dude is being sneaky.

5. How many women make a pass at Enterprise's chief Medical Officer, Beverly Crusher? Answer: One. Remember Ambassador Odan? The only problem was he was a Trill lifeform hosting a weird creature inside him. That was the real Odan. The human shell was dying and was due for replacement. Poor Beverly was'nt thrilled to discover her new lover was a women!!! Still, it did'nt stop the new Trill from saying goodbye. She kissed Beverly on the wrist!



6.How many women (shame, one was a hologram) give Geordi La Forge the brush off? Answer: Two. Christy Henshaw in the Booby Trap and freezer woman Leah brams in Galaxys Child.(Geordi created a perfect hologram Leah, except she had manners) Geordi admitted to falling in love in the holodeck to Barclay. Geordi and Reginald are funny sad cases and the greatest engineers in Sci Fi history. Chief Engineer Montgomery Scott (James Doohan TOS affectionately called "Scotty" tops the Galactic Engineers of all Time.



7. How many women snarled at Worf? He's the Klingon that finds human females too fragile! Answer: 4. K'Ehleyr in The Emissary. The Klingon warriorette in Hide and Q. Kamala in The Perfect Mate.
