1992 "People" Article on Brent Spiner
In one of my emails from a reader and online friend, the observation was made that material on the Next Generation was harder to find than the original series, and that each subsequent spinoff received less media exposure. This is true, attested to by the fact that my combined TNG/DS9/VOY scrapbook binder is only half as thick as my TOS one (actually I have several scrapbooks full of TOS stuff, and only one for the spinoffs). This time we are looking at an article from "People" magazine on Brent Spiner, TNG's Data, which came out on June 8, 1992. This interview with Brent Spiner is a rare look at a cast member who seemed to value his privacy more than most of the others.

ReplyDeleteinteresting...i always felt like TNG got the most mainstream media coveage of any trek incarnation, especially from about 1991-1994. i've always felt like that was star trek's absolute peak of popularity with mainstream audiences, during that period, with a peak around the release of "star trek generations" in november of 1994. the initial PR for DS9 in late '92/ early '93 was close, but mainstream attention to the trek franchise seemed to drop off steadily from that point, at least as far as the TV series were concerned. that was my impression, anyway.
so glad to see you posting stuff from the sequel series!
