> [@anyrose](#): > > What was wrong with the Brent Spiner revival? He’s a much better singer than William Daniels I don’t believe in saving Data? 😃 The singing may have been better but he didn’t capture the man as well. And there is just some reason, something in Spiner, that I really disliked after his couple shots on Night Court. I know that many others disagree with me but if I thought my picks had any influence over the Fates, he would be right next to Yoko Ono on my list. ---

> [@anyrose](#): > > What was wrong with the Brent Spiner revival? He’s a much better singer than William Daniels I’m a big fan of the movie. I was lucky enough to see the revival with Brent Spiner on Broadway. It was wonderful. The only one that was without compare was John Cullum in the movie. ETA: Pat Hingle as Franklin? How could you go wrong? ---
