There's also a spaceship on the show, which I think, I hope that's not a fucking secret. I have been known—I’ve had a bad experience with oversharing, and I hope that wasn't an overshare, but it's fabulous.
I think Frakes is in the clear here - this tracks with Becky Lynch's announcement that she would be part of the "bridge crew."
I assumed that as part of their Academy duties they'd need to maintain the Golden Gate Bridge.
"People like the bridge!"
"I like the bridge."
Starships? In my Star Trek? It's more likely than you think.
I love Frakes. He’s just so passionate about what he’s working on and honestly it’s so rare to see people in his role geek out so much - not only does he “get it”, but he loves it - and as a fan I’m here for it.
For some reason, I have the impulse to put this in here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dkinoUGmKZ4
(Phish wanted Frakes to do a horn part for one of their tracks, but his skills were not up to the task. To honor the attempt, they made this track out of a bunch of the failed takes.)
