Star Trek TNG Ping
We are not guaranteed another day.
I had a stroke when I was 31.
Wait. He "scooped" the role from himself?
“The Higher the Fewer” - RIP
That is one serieslee ugly kid
I remember him from Grace Under Fire and Little Giants. RIP.
Interesting, I had no idea a white kid played Alexander.
Sad. RIP.
Cultural appropriation?
I am so terribly sorry. I sincerely hope that your health has improved from that awful experience.
Judging from one of the photos I would say it was drugs and alcohol.
With that makeup it was hard to tell the race of the Klingon actors. Plenty were White and plenty were Black, AFAIK.
Anyway, I had forgotten someone had the role before Brain Bonsall (best known from Familty Ties)
RIP
I always thought it ridiculous puny little White actors would play the son of Michael Dorn’s Worf (although the mother was a “White” Klingon) when you know any kids he had would’ve looked like a college football player by age 7.
The mother was half human as I recall.
Alexander did look like a young adult by his teens on DS9.
They had a different (3rd) actor succeeding the puny Brian Bonsall on DS9 (he was only 10-12 during the time he played him). That last actor, Marc Worden, was 21 when he played him in DS9.
I remember laughing the first time I saw Andy Keaton as Worf’s son. I thought that was BAD casting. I didn’t even remember the first kid to play him (the subject of the thread), but he looked a bit like Bonsall, actually. In fact, the photo of him at the top of the thread I thought WAS Brian Bonsall.
You do realize he's made up to look like a Klingon boy, right?
Regardless, why say such a thing at this particular moment?
Klingon boy? No idea what a Klingon boy is but you’ve won the snowflake award today. LOL
I have Amazon Prime, although I don’t use it as much as I should, and I learned I can watch the Gay Trek with the subscription. Not gonna do it.
I get HBO for 10 bucks a month! CBS All Access is not worth the money, especially not the 6 bucks a month WITH ADS version. Better to go the yo ho ho and a bottle of rum route, I can help if you ever do want to see it. I just friggin love the mirror universe, I was so hoping they would include it.
Amazon Prime on the other hand, definitely worth the money.
BTW, I don't know if I told you but I saw "Faux Trek: Beyond" a while back. Garbage, boring cliched plot that was so easy to guess the stupid 'twist". I don't understand why they can't find a writer that can write an actual plot instead of having a huge budget movie with a story that's weaker than the average TNG two-parter, any one of us 3 could churn out fan faction better than that crap, action fest, I don't even remember the action it couldn't have been anything special. Discovery at least has some semblance of a story.
