I just watched I, Claudius for the first time in years. Never realized Picard had a part in it.

Caption the pic, if you desire. It's begging for it! :evilgrin:

1. Picard is saying "I will never see William Shatner's stylist again!"
:P

3. That's a toupee. Stewart, early on, would sometimes wear one at auditions.
Then afterwards, as part of his schtick, he would doff the rug and say "With me, you have two actors for the price of one!"

He went bald around the age of 18. Here he is in 1958 with a receding hairline.

4. Yeah, he's always been bald.


But then again, so was Capt. Kirk.

5. I love I Claudius. I haven't seen it in so long.
I almost bought the DVD set. Kinda pricey though.

6. I downloaded it with Bittorrent.
It took a week, but it was worth it. I got the entire five disk set.

(After watching it, I deleted it.)

13. Do a short sign up with Netflix. They have it.
Also, if you enjoy imperial mayhem, check out HBO's Rome, also available thru Netflix.

7. It's a hereditary condition (forget the name) passed thru the
male line. He was bald at age 19. He said he has no problem with it; in fact, he finds that wigs are just another part of the makeup.

He's playing Sejanus, a thoroughly nasty piece of work.

8. Since my own forehead has been getting much larger of late,
I don't have a real issue with it myself. I just thought it was kinda cool. It was the first time I ever saw him with hair, even if it was just a wig.

10. Yes, it's one of the few roles on tv or movies when he did wear a
wig. By the way, some advice from him, keep your hair trimmed very short. Much more attractive than the comb over ala The Donald.

11. My hair is long (I wear a pony tail)
and is combed straight back. No comb over for me. Let my hairline be what it is!
