although characters chekhov entertainment goes kirk knew life seen spock
I wasn't a 'Star Trek' fan, yet I knew who all the characters were. that goes to show what an impact the show had not just in entertainment but in life. I knew who Chekhov was and I knew who Kirk and Spock were, although I probably had never seen the show.
age age-and-aging apparently quite
Apparently I'm the 'eye-candy' of TNG, which at my age I find quite a compliment.
double gotten money
They should've done a two-hour, you know, like we did. Then I would've gotten double the money, that would've been good.
people ask-me asks
Not many people ask me out.
jobs stars generations
What they told us about 'Star Trek: The Next Generation' when we first started was that we were guaranteed 26 episodes, so that was the longest job I've ever had. And that was basically it - we didn't know what the premise of the show was going to be and we waited, week by week, to see a script.

I was originally cast to be the brains of the Enterprise. Somehow I became The Chick. There's a little ugly girl inside of me going 'Yay! I'm a sex symbol!'

stars character fiction
I've been getting a lot of science fiction scripts which contained variations on my 'Star Trek' character and I've been turning them down. I strongly feel that the next role I do, I should not be wearing spandex.
running mouths sound
I am not a sound bite person. I prefer to run at the mouth.
believe judgment should
Gene Roddenberry's thing always was, we should not pass judgment on anything that anyone else believes in or what they do in their lives.
stars want judgmental
The thing about 'Star Trek' is that it is not judgmental. You can do what ever you want, within reason.
successful actors want
As an actor, of course, you want to be in something that's successful.
