- In 1994, Paul Rosa interviewed John de Lancie, Star Trek's "Q" on a Yacht in the San Francisco Bay. Until now, this interview has been archived. Paul has kindly allowed it to appear for the first time online on The Life Arts Network. Copyright PDR Film and Video.
John de Lancie writes the full story of Q here: amzn.to/3gzXzR1
He comes across as smart, genuine and someone who takes his work but not himself seriously. We could do with more of that.
In Hollywood especially.
All the Star Trek actors seem to be rather extraordinary people. This guy seems to be more extraordinary than most.
33:20 I love how emotional he got talking about that Person and the community she could find a place in. He is a very sweet man with a beautiful soul.
John de Lancie is a delight as well as a national treasure.
the 80's seems to have extended itself a little into the 90's here. Look at that Blazer! Go Q!
De Lancie is awesome!
Agreed.
He really is. I remember clipping the microphone on him that day and being intimidated that I was that close to Q!
@@LifeArtsNetwork Do you talk to John?
I remember seeing his debut on Days of Our Lives and he did "mold it nearer to his heart's desire." He is a wonderful person who brings more to all our lives in his own unique way.
I'm glad you put these up and glad I found them and had time to watch/listen. They are very entertaining and insightful. Thank you!
John de Lancie would be voicing Garrus in Mass Effect if timeline was bit different. His voice should be digitized for posterity.
That's amazing! Can that be done?
Took my two daughters to see him years ago, it was a great memory.
What a dear man! This was by far my favorite episode.
Loved you as Q because you looked like you were having so much fun
Classy dude... professional actor indeed. I could relate to several principals he talked about for acting, even though I'm no actor at all.
I guess this proves that John is a much better and more "real human" human being than many of us thought he was. Well, we must hope the Q Continuum nevvver finds that out.
This was amazing. Thanks to everyone involved.
Q is my favorite character in all of the Star Trek shows and movies and John is the main reason for that.
I got a lot of my Star Trek memorabilia from Gene Roddenberry’s Lincoln Enterprises. Stationary, scripts, film clips, uniform badges, Spock’s Vulcan IDIC, to name a few.
Was expecting to see algorithm comments down here, but this only has 5,785 views :( I was sure this was a 2 million view video. Terrific interview anyways, thanks for posting it.
The part where he says he flunked grade 5 reminds me of Stephen J. Cannell, he said the same of himself, he was dyslectic, yet he went on to become a multi millionaire. He was a brilliant script writer. Cannell created or co-created several dozen successful TV series from the 1970s to the 1990s, often with his creative partner Frank Lupo. Cannell's creations include The Rockford Files, The A-Team, Renegade, The Greatest American Hero, 21 Jump Street, and The Commish. He also wrote novels, notably the Shane Scully mystery series. His story on a CZcams video is inspirational.
He could be a cult leader any time I see him in something I am always magnetize to everything he says
Thanks for uploading
You are welcome! Thanks for taking a look!
Agreed.
@@LifeArtsNetwork Agreed.
Correction I got the meet the man three or four times the first time was in Michigan and yes he's very down-to-earth haha and he's also very knowledgeable of how the way things should be instead of the way they are as well as how people should be treated oh, he's a very pleasant man to talk to.
I am impressed, but not surprised De Lancey went to Julliard. In terms of training, he was a perfect foil to Stewart's training at the Royal Shakespeare Company. Given how much both actors really enjoy stage work, it must have been, not so much fun, but *satisfying* playing off of each other, like two well matched tennis players, not necessarily same style, but nearly as much training at a high level.
I've got to meet the man about 3 or 4 times and he's very interesting
Can't believe the interviewer didn't ask him how and why he became a high wire walker.
wire walker?
John Q. deLancie
He should just embrace it
really enjoyed Q
Great advice for careers.
Wow ... So essentially John is playing a version of himself when he plays Q.
Totally. Thanks for watching.
Agreed.
@@LifeArtsNetwork You are welcome.
So did his son in Q2 - btw that was PERFECT job by Keegan de Lancie.
@@piotrd.4850 Indeed.
A young De Lancie appeared on the Six Million dollar Man , bigfoot episode. He played an army medic.
Wish we could contact Paul Rosa...a marvelous interviewer and content producer.
De lance is awesome.
I agree! Thanks for watching.
As they say in Star Trek
"Welcome aboard"
????
❤
37:10 wise words, that are sadly still reality, 25 years later...
Looks like he could be Tom Hank's younger brother.
He looks so handsome
Cool
Agreed.
John de Lancie seems like a sockdolger human being. I would love to meet him and to know him.
He looks like Tom Hanks
He's also appeared in an episode of Star Trek Continues, hence he's appeared in a TOS episode.
What the heck are you talking about?
@@Mister__Jey John De Lancie played a character called Galisti, in a Star Trek Continues episode, called What Ships Are For.
I think he's an ESFP, the "Entertainer".
"Famous ESFPs include Marilyn Monroe, Dolly Parton, Elizabeth Taylor, Judy Garland, Magic Johnson, Elvis Presley, Ronald Reagan, Serena Williams, Paul McCartney, Bob Hope, and Goldie Hawn."
Privileged.
3rd rock from te sun
Did he have a role in that show?
de Lancie looks worried throughout this.
How this can have 50 views??
Thank you for watching!
You are right.... Thanks for watching before that!
@@LifeArtsNetworkhi. share this in groups of people that likes star trek and youll have a lot of views.
That's a great idea. Thanks!
Agreed.
funny how hes right that the greed did what he said it might
Who was Q?
The biggest annoying thorn in Jean-Luc Picard's side in ST: TNG.
More of a mischievous prankster than downright villain, but he always appeared at the most inopportune of moments just to annoy the daylights out of Picard and Riker.
Q was an unpredictable, omnipotent being in the Star Trek TNG series that was probably based on a character from the TOS series named Trelane from the "The Squire of Gothos" episode. He's basically a God stuck in primary scholl recess.
30:34 Absolutely Star Trek fandom is inclusionary! As a someone on the autistic spectrum who has been a Trekkie for forty plus years, I have found that my fellow fans accept everyone, especially those others would consider weird.
He hasn´t got an interessant voice. His german voice is much better.
...and Sherlock Holmes isn't Sherlock Holmes without Moriarty. THINK!
