I'm not telling anyone how to run their business, but if Tom Hanks wants to be in Star Trek, then you put Tom Hanks in Star Trek.

[@honeysucklecat]

You can say that again. Here, I'll do it for you. I'm not telling anyone how to run their business, but if Tom Hanks wants to be in Star Trek, then you put Tom Hanks in Star Trek.

[@irosencrantz882]

I came to the comments to say this! They simply must put him at the conn.

[@Lumibear.]

Or at least on the Orville

[@jamesray9009]

you know if they rescued someone, that was on a deserted planet. I know who to cast

only if he wants to end his career

We love Tom and Simon in this one, but hats off to Nicole for playing to the bit and having those funny reactions.

[@VincitOmniaVeritas.]

And...... ? That’s what decent people do everyday. He is a decent man.

[@maragathm]

It really speaks to his intelligence how he is so well read that he has something interesting to say on any topic, but without the tone of being a miserable know it all. he never professes he is an expert on anything just a guy sharing his opinion. Tom Hanks Is master communicator.

[@VincitOmniaVeritas.]

Anu I couldn’t agree with you more. Its called “ knowing your audience “. I’m a scientist and it irks me when people are surprised of intelligence, not talent but intelligence. What disturbs me is that this person seems surprised that TH is naturally acting like a decent human being. What should surprise people in indecency. That’s the point I’m trying to convey.

[@georgemaster9271]

Did anyone see Tom Hanks on Despierta America about two years ago?

now why hasn't Tom Hanks been in a Star Trek movie? You know he'd say yes immediately, even with a slightly reduced pay-check.

There was talk of him playing Zephram Cochrane in First Contact, but he was busy directing That Thing You Do! at the time.

Big rumor I read online a long time ago was that he was trying to get a film adaptation of Arthur C. Clarke's 3001: The Final Odyssey made. That could have been just BS because of Tom Hanks and Clarke's appearance at the 2001 Oscars.

There have always been peaceful romulans, just like there have always been conniving humans. Humans and romulans are very much alike, only with their forward faces and hidden faces inverted.

[@paulwright1814]

It’s awesome to hear it confirmed that Tom Hanks is such a big Star Trek fan. I remember back in the day, Tom Hanks was going to play Zefram Cochran in Star Trek: First Contact, the man who invented the Warp Drive which resulted in humanity’s 1st contact with an alien, an event that Star Treks entire history is built upon. From what I heard of the time Hanks was very excited to do it but there ended up being a scheduling conflict and James Cromwell ended up playing the character in the film. James Cronwells great in the movie, it’s actually one of my favorite Star Trek Films. I’d love to see Tom Hanks in a future Star Trek project. They’re not done with that universe ye. He could play a role in one of the new films or one of the television shows.

[@carlosescobar6973]

LOVE THIS SHOW!!

Love Tom Hanks, love everyone in this, great show. Agree with all the praises. But, I need to change topics for a moment. The chandeliers in the background caught my eye. Their shape and style look like quantum computers. Does anyone know ANYTHING more about them? (Reason: When people see a model of a quantum computer, many ask how they could buy something like it as a chandelier for their home. These might be as close as you can get. I'd love to be able to tell them about it.)

[@Reazintful]

aside from the shape, and not even really that, they dont look anything like a quantum computer, and they look jeweled, they dont look much different than any other classic crystal chandelier to me.

[@DKonigsbach]

@@Reazintful Artistic taste is subjective and individualistic. I think it looks more like a quantum computer than Poul Henningsen's Artichoke Lamp looks like an artichoke. Your mileage may vary.
