hide show The most annoying thing about Brent Spiner is the fact that his character of Data will always seem to haunt him no matter what he does.. . .
Brent has an extensive film and theatre career, both before and after his tenure on Star Trek.
. . .
hide show I'm fairly certain Brent Spiner is the best actor I've ever seen in my life, plus he sings and dances, a rarity in Hollywood these days.
. . .
hide show Unlike everyone else I've first seen Brent Spiner in Independence Day, rather than in star trek.
. . .
He can do every kind of character he wants to and he always commits himself so much that every character becomes "alive".

But there was nobody to say, ‘Oh, that’s not what an android would do’ or ‘That’s not how an android would behave,’ because there weren’t any other androids at that point on weekly television.. . .
In the mid-nineties Spiner was vocal about not wanting to play the character of Data indefinitely, because unlike an android, he ages.

Spiner will also be a guest star, along with former TNG castmate Wil Wheaton, on tonight’s episode of the CBS hit comedy, Big Bang Theory.

And I knew Scott (Bakula) from before, so that was fun.

So it occurred to me, ‘How long is this going to last?’ I looked pretty young for my age at the time, but I thought, ‘If I was 10 years younger, I could play this for 30 years.’ But I wasn’t.

Star Trek Catching Up With Brent Spiner, Part 1
Below is part one of our two-part interview, and check back tomorrow for part two.. . .
How quickly, or not, did you get a handle on Data and how to play him?Spiner: I think fairly quickly because I realized pretty early on that there was really no precedent for it, that I could do pretty much anything I wanted and the audience would either accept it or they wouldn’t.
. . .
None of that is important at all when I appear as myself anywhere else.
. . .
It’s certainly easier in Fresh Hell because we’ve established all of the parameters of where I am in my life at that point.
. . .
In my mind, there’s a second incident, an even bigger incident, and that is I got old.
