Star Trek: 10 Bloopers You Need To See

For the 2014 Blu-ray release of season seven of The Next Generation, we were teased with some never-before-seen bloopers from the show.

One came from the end of the episode Parallels. Worf makes it back to his Enterprise, and this time Riker really is clueless about a surprise party, as one hasn’t been planned. In an outtake outside Worf’s quarters, Jonathan Frakes clearly turns round to face Worf (Michael Dorn) with a little too much gusto, but, not stopping there, he develops his mistake into a hilarious little skit.

He begins by doing various side-splitting double takes, and, instead of "Something wrong?" he shouts, "What’s wrong with you?" Dorn keeps delivering is lines as if all is normal. "What are you talking about?" Frakes replies, with a good dose of comedic incredulity, before he spots a crewmember walking by (who also appears in the take that made it to air). "Tracy!" he yells, before chasing after her down the corridor.

In general, we see just how much fun the cast and crew had on set in the final season (and indeed before). They got some great work done, but they clearly didn’t take themselves too seriously the rest of the time.

Having said that, maybe this wasn’t really an outtake at all! Perhaps it took place in one of those alternate universes Worf was visiting? Get the Galaxy Truth Network on the case now!
