I started out hating him. But in the end I really liked the character.

The character that grew up on/in French vineyard and spoke with an English Shakespearean accent? That Patrick Stewart?

He's a big part of the reason that I never watched STNG when I still had television. I grew up on the original series and was in the military overseas during the beginning of Next Generation.

By the time I was in a position to watch Next Generation I had already seen the movie “Lady Jane.” From a minor part (I believe he was the Earl of Warwick) Patrick Stewart just filled the screen and stole the scene.

To me, the Jean Luc Picard role was like a five star chef making hotdogs in a push cart at a little league game. Sure, it's a good hot dog, but the chef is wasting his abilities.

I liked him too and Deanna Troi was especially hot........
