      As a person on the spectrum, this really resonated with me. I always loved Data's whole development as a character, and to hear that other people like me also identified with his journey to become more human, was really cool.

    As a father of a child with ASD I really loved what the young man at 36:05 said about being inspired by Data's character and his struggle to find his emotions. It made me a little teary, which I was not expecting when I pulled up this video!

    • @BattleBladeWarrior
      @BattleBladeWarrior Před 3 lety +1

      Hell yea, that was special for me too. I've always had a problem in social situations, treating things too literal and reading peoples emotions properly and have been called a robot by people before, by my own girlfriend even :D And yea, its true, you can really realte with Data's quest on understanding all the little subtleties in human interaction.

      @@BattleBladeWarrior It's really amazing that Data's character has touched so many people in the autism community; especially since I don't think they had any intention of equating Data's struggle with emotions to that of people with ASD. Hope you are finding your niche out there!

      @@vagabond197979 Thanks! And yea, especially back then, that condition wasn't really in the public eye as much either, so I think it was just a happy accident that his character gave them more representation.
      If there was one theme for the entirety of the show, starting from the very first episode, I think next generations really did a lot to focus on the human condition, what it means to be human, the choices we make, actions we take, etc, and Data's evolution throughout the series was a perfect representation of that.

      I remember the train whistle sounding and it showing getting ready to jump and making the jump and it ending with an empty view of the bridge. Maybe the teacher just cut it at that point to form the discussion, but I don't think we ever saw him on the train..

  • @MichaelStephenLordReserei1987

    When you're as old as a TV show...
    I was born on April 5th 1987. I didn't get into TNG or Star Trek until First Contact was released on network TV (around 11 years old). I'm hoping I'm still around in 2061 to see how things turn out. But at that age, I had been into Astronomy and Physics, space exploration/history a few years.

    as much as I would love Brent Spiner to guest star as Data in ST:Discovery, I don't think that you could believably digitally de-age somebody on a TV-Show's budget.
    But now that Fuller is out, the Data cameo is probably off the table.
    He wanted to create an anthology series with a different crew and a different ship for every new season.
    I wonder if he wanted Data for season one (time travel!!) or a later season, which would be set during or after TNG.
