I love how he says "Jean-Luc Picard" and they assume he's on the fritz, but he's answering their question.

I love how Brent goes into Lore and his facial expressions and voice is as he had portrayed him yesterday instead 30 years ago.

Brent: So, who am I playing this season? Writers: Yes.

When brent went into lore and the other versions he has not lost it. Absolutely amazing

Loved seeing Geordi's eyes tear up hearing his [best] friend say his name for the first time in 20 years.

LeVar nails this scene, if you close your eyes it sounds like a scene straight out of an old TNG episode.

Glad to see Data back. I genuinely did not feel right when he died in Nemesis.

Honestly, this was brilliant. I think it addressed all of Brent Spiner's concerns about the character. This addresses the aging out of the character, it gives Spiner something meaty to chew on as an actor and it resurrects (in a way) a beloved character for fans. Hat's off to everyone involved in this season. Now just turn up the damn lights, I can't see shit.

I can feel Picard's feelings in my heart when Data says "Captain?"

Bent Spiner once said that they had to kill Data off in Nemesis because he can't look the same forever. This is the best way to bring Data back with Brent's grey hair and distinguished physique.

The chemistry between the TNG cast is still there. They all slip back into their respective roles with ease. As fans, it's a pleasure to see them onscreen once more.....

The music of this series was a complete masterpiece. Added so much emotion to every scene.

It's amazing how well the composers are weaving the tapestry of Star Trek together. The theme from Nemesis is this nice button to bring us back to when he died and back to the relationships of old. Especially Geordi.

“Bridge officers are always coming back from the dead!” -Ensign Beckett Mariner

Worf: ‚Is there a reset switch?‘ Geordi: ‚Man, this is not your Windows computer!‘

1:02 as a programmer who has watched an operating system booting up and doing self checks thousands of times, that is exactly the expression I would expect if my computer had a face.

0:57 - 1:43 Love to see Data back to life! And he reacted in the same manner as if he was being rebooted aboard the Enterprise-D

The moment Beverly said 'human remains', Picard didn't have to even look. He KNEW what they took.

I love how they brought back Data the same way they brought it back in the Books. A fusion between Soong and Data

Its gratifying to see that actual effort is being put into writing the characters from tng instead of just using them as a stunt to draw in viewers.

I love how we instantly became data. Amazing actor.

This was by far one of the best Star Trek episodes I have ever seen!

After all these years they still have it! Welcome back Data!

I can already tell that this is going to be a hell of a send off for the TNG cast. And I will be sad when this series is over, which is something I would never have dreamed of saying before this season.

It would have been really funny if the first thing he said was in the voice of the character Brent played on Nightcourt years ago. That would have been hysterical!

Crusher looks amazing

Seeing the old cast in their golden years, even in a clip of STAR TREK PICARD made me tear up considerably; All the good times I knew watching the show in its heyday then seeing STAR TREK in its twilight ; remembering the past but living the present. Gene Roddenberry made a hell of a TV legacy 🖖😢

Old and Busted: "Spock's Brain" New Hotness: "Picard's Body"

I was very sad when Data died in Star Trek: Nemesis over 20 years ago. He has been of my favorite Star Trek characters for over 30 years. I was very happy when they brought him back! This was done very well, too. Brent Spiner was brilliant!

So lovely and fitting that the first person Data responded to was Geordi. I got a little choked up when that happened.

I love how the music in the background harkens back to the B4/Data-related Material from _Nemesis._

this felt like a continuation of nemesis, it has that gritty dark feeling, a sad note, in the presence of family

This shows final act had the wife and I in tears of joy. The only bad part is you can only watch it for the first time, one time. A truly wonderful, truly Star Trek beacon of hope

great acting by Brent

1:02 I love how Jerry Goldsmith's 4 note wonder/poignant motif that he composed for Star Trek the Final Frontier is used here by Stephen Barton to signify Data's rebirth, it was also used prominently in all the subsequent Trek films which he composed for. For those of you wondering what I mean listen to the tracks New Sight from Star Trek Insurrection and A Busy Man from Star Trek The Final Frontier soundtracks respectively and you'll hear it, Stephen Barton has really dug deep and I love it!!

I didn't think he'd make a return, even in a slightly different form. Wonderful!!

After all this Years finally this Crew has Gathered my friends. Thanks.

So the new Data is a combination of Data, Lore, Altan Soong and Lal, all eventually merged into one extraordinary being who is a SERIOUS Upgrade on the old Data. Plus, he's been completely redesigned physically so Brent Spiner finally gets to play his age as "old" Data. No wonder he wanted to come back as Data one last time-this take on Data was such a good idea. Plus, he got to play around with a real sense of humour. "I can feel it in my gut" when he sets out to fly the Enterprise D INTO the Borg cube while they are being shot at from pretty much every angle. Then "Here goes nothing" when he punches the throttle all the way open and makes the Enterprise D dance like it's fun through the innards of the Cube under fire...

Still one of the best actors in the Star Trek Universe

Loved this scene seeing data be with his best friend geordi and his respect and love for Admiral Picard dope then his dove into his multiple characters dope !!!!!!! I think Data ight be the most beloved android in TV history more then C3po braniac ultron and more because of his emotional journey to understand humanity and his death and ressurection

I have waited 21 years for this moment... Data has returned!

20 years of watching reruns of TNG, knowing what happened to Data. The writers of this show were able to fix it; resurrect Data in a way that was believable. It's brilliant. This show gave their story the ending it deserved.

Everyone from TNG are such talented actors. What a cast!

Nemesis Theme in the background when he wakes up. Felt so good

Kind of like book ends..Data kept repeating to Picard, "Jean-Luc Picard' here trying conveying answer they seek. In The Best of Both Worlds Part II, Jean-Luc kept repeating to Data "Sleep Data" conveying answer to how to stop the Borg.

Close your eyes and it's like being back in 1993 ❤

USS Starfleet Retirement Home. Where no wheelchair has gone before.

When all these personalities finally integrate, Data will finally achieve his dream...he'll be human.

My wild guess (as I never guessed it’s Picard’s human body they were after) is that the Changelings want to turn Jack Crusher into some sort of Locutus 2.0/Changeling hybrid that they can use to take out the fleet on Frontier Day. Picard’s human body must have had some relics from Locutus; he could still “hear” the Borg whenever he was close to them, & Jack would be the closest genetic match to Jean Luc so theoretically those relics could work with his physiology. The new Starfleet ships are all networked & we know from season 2 they use some Borg-based software. Even with Iromodic syndrome it sure seems Jack must have been abducted at some point and implanted with a portion of a Changeling; maybe when he was a kid during an operation, based on the bad dreams Beverly mentioned. Sadly for their plan to have a chance at working (and for the plot to be exciting this season) I think Riker is going to have to give Vadic something to track the Titan with in order to keep her from killing Deanna. Vadic will attack and board the Titan and, to save everyone else, Jack will choose to surrender himself after some serious firefights. It’ll be a No-Win Scenario for him, & he never wanted anyone to sacrifice themselves for him in the first place. Somehow Riker, Worf & Deanna will come up with a surprise attack that keeps Vadic from killing everyone on Titan, Vadic will fly off to turn Jack into the Borg-Changeling weapon they want, and that will set up the final two episodes. At first I thought the idea was corny but now I very much can see them setting it up so our heroes have to use a de-networked Titan and some of the non-networked museum ships to save the universe. And yes, I can totally see some of our old Next Gen crew flying out to battle in some kind of rebuilt version of the Enterprise-D. Geordi has been secretly working on something in Hanger 12, we know the saucer was recovered, and Levar Burton mentioned in an interview that they did film on a version of the E-D bridge. At this point any Galaxy classes would be at least 40 years old, and Geordi might be able to save a star drive section of one of the E-D’s remaining sister ships from the scrap dealers post-decommissioning. An old Galaxy Class is old enough not to be networked but new enough to still have somewhat modern systems and weapons, assuming Geordi made sure to restore the phaser banks & keep a few modern torpedoes handy.

Data pulling an R2D2.

Did they purposely make the first 2 seasons meh so that this one can having me fucking tearing up every episode ?!

The Data resurrection scene, is kinda like how I imagine passing on, will be. I wake up to all my dear ones. ❤

I have waited 30 years for this moment… Lore has returned!

This is not Data. Data died on the Scimitar.

1:51-2:04 Data: There are many of us inside this android type 5.10! But currently one voice speaks to you more fondly than the others!" Let's hope Lore doesn't resurface and take over..... Oops. too late. At 3:01 he becomes Lore 😒

When Data was repeating "Captain Picard" I was screaming at them to catch up. I didn't know it was Picard's body, but he was clearly talking about something of Picard's that had been taken.

Star Trek: Senior Citizen's 😅

Welcome back data...

He said "manifest inquiry" indicating he was going to show to the team that which was stolen; but none of them heeded to that, with Worf only asking "Is there a reset switch?" 😅

I remember watching the trailer for Nemesis back in the day. We all knew a member of the core crew was going to pass, but we didn't know who. I thought to myself if it were Data that would be the least painful since we had watched him perish more than a few times on the tv series or so it seemed. The creators and squeezed every ounce of juice from that moment on the Scimitar many times over and it works each time. His death still affects me to this day. I guess I didn't realize how much Data meant to me till he perished saving Picard one last time.

ok i get brents logic here as yes a human actor wont continue to look young forever to play a machine character. however even without that sacrafice scene in nemesis there are still ways future movies with the tng crew including data would have functionally worked. remember data was an android striving to become more human, and it would only be natural for him to want to seek out a method to "age" himself to experience the same things has his human friends and not look so out of place amongst them, despite the fact the entire crew would understand why the have grown old and he would have still looked as young as the day he was made. so really they could have kept data around even with brent spinner aging and explain it away as data trying to be more human and creating a body to refelct the aging passage of time. something date himself would have found extremely fascinating.

Welcome back Data.

Terry Matalas deserves to have his statue built by Star Trek fans.

M-Five 10? How many models of that defective killing machine are there Captain Dunsel?

Well I'll be damned somebody actually posted a clip that actually makes me want to see this series or at the very least this season

imaging movie night with data while his eyes project the movie on the wall

When this happened I was so expecting to meet the new lacutos of Borg.

Very Nice to see the cast together again,i enjoyed this scene

Data: Unlike The Terminator, I am old, not obsolete.

I met the Borg queen actress in Drumheller Penitentiary she was filming doing a project

When Data's eyes started projecting I was expecting to see Keith Flint and hear Firestarter 😢

Beverly's face though. Damn!

Data has an Artoo projector. It would've been funny if Leia's message played before he shook it off and changed the image..😅

Nice Nemesis music

It's just weird that Daystrom is keeping remains of dead Starfleet personnel...

i half expected data to come back to life singing blue skies from nemesis or a british tar from insurrection

Holographic eyes... are a new trick... nice R2D2 MOVE STAR TREK

Data is eternal

His eyes as projectors.

I loved all of the references from other Star Trek films and shows that were on this episode, like seeing the Genesis II device and the Klingon Bird Of Prey that was used to bring two humpback whales to the 24th century. It was also interesting to see the remains of Kirk's body after he died in 'Star Trek- Generations'. I was a little confused as to why the fleet museum would have a D7 Battle Cruiser. Who did it belong to?

Haha! I have the same USB cable on my phone that Data has on the back of his head!

Data has become Legion the sume of all parts of the whole of himself. Frankly his better and worse of each in one, and probably this story is his final evolution towards humanity, a union between the old and future artificial lifeforms, a cornerstone but not totally finished? Maybe Data will decide on a different name, something fitting for what is happening to him. Adam Legion Song or Ericsson Song? What's in a name. DATA first and final?

inside that new creation is also the hillbilly character from night court. but he’s unfamiliar with all that “space age tech” that he’s speechless but quietly asking where is judge harry stone.

Because it was Imperative, absolutely Necesary and Unquestionable that All this Crew again One Last Time my friends. Thanks.

Machine- I am Lore... Me- I need to change my undergarments....

Hate how they keep ressurecting data in random ways. It's becoming like the Terminator franchise. Just let him live instead of killing him off and ressurecting him.

We all know Lore is going to make trouble (maybe). I'm not really into deleting AIs, but in Lore's case, I'd make an exception and delete him in the script.

really hits different if you've also watched Wrath of Khan and Into Darkness recently

Watching Data die twice 😭 broke my heart 💔

Data has the R2D2 going on.

1:18 the face of someone seeing their best friend they thought dead for 20 years

That body in the hologram.... that's not picard. But.... it could be Shinzon. The Romulans created a clone to replace picard & infiltrate starfleet. But it feels like it survived & comatose. If anyone can disprove my thought, be my guest.

The thing is: they have access to all the data inside, erm, Data. So there's no real need to activate the android, just scan the memory for the information you need.

There are more effective ways to tell the audience he contains several personalities rather than have Data say, "I am Lore", etc. Most modern Hollywood writing wouldn't know subtlety if it had a green, glowing horn beeping over and over.

Data acting as Brent Spiner would in the wild...

I think Lore is the main villain this season. He let them steal the items from the station

😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😊😊😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤ welcome back Data!

Make a Picard...remains of Picard and Jack's Blood. A perfect undetectable changing.

and here my friend was really hoping they would just forget the events of the first 2 seasons lol

WOW DATA IS BACK ERY TEAR JERKING SCENE
