Why would he be? ;)
In Back to the Future Martin is surprised to see his school teacher and says 'he never had hair' but in this case one assumes that Picard was bald all his life seeing him younger and hairless seems more understandable.

There is an episode of justice league with a similar theme the heroes are turned into children Batman is a resentful and disturbed child Diana Prince a little taller looks like the prettiest girl in school and green lantern wore glasses like that also did not have it easy -Wonder Woman cares a lot for Bruce (I wanted the romance was not only between hawk and green lantern) it is an animated series does not apply in FLM but I recommend to watch it.

I never associated Star Trek with child actresses. :shock:

So I say thank you.

I believe Night is referring to the comments posted in the REL thread for The Giant of Thunder Mountain, when we realized that Noley also played a couple different characters in TNG and DS9. But he MAY be referring to other gushing comments made out there on the internet somewhere. Those writings I do not know about. :P

Sully brings up an interesting point. It isn't unimaginable to think Picard's hair loss might have been something that happened when he was younger. This does seem to be implied in the 10th Star Trek movie "Nemesis", where we are confronted with Shinzon. I won't spoil the reveal, but it goes into some of Picard's health issues at a younger life. It would seem to imply that Picard would have more been balding by the time he was injured in the Nausicaan barfight flashback.

Probably hard to be consistent across decades of movies and episodes. I still remember the hilarious scene in DS9, in an episode where the DS9 crew are transported to the events of the Original Series episode with Tribbles, when they ask Warf why Klingons looked so remarkably different. Warf's response: "We do not speak of it."

Funny, future Star Trek technology allowed for Picard to make a complete recovery from a fatal heart puncture, but they don't seem to have figured out a remedy for hair loss. An excuse I can look forward to thinking. "Hey, they never figured it out by the 24th century in Star Trek. So what am I gonna do about it."

Does anyone recall an episode in the 5th season of TNG called "Inner Light", where Picard lives out a lifetime of an inhabitant of another planet? I still think about that episode, it was lovely and brilliant. Not one for FLM, though.

That question would be out of place like asking why Spock isn't human? Leonard Nemoy looks like he's from another planet.

Spoiler:

In X-Men if it's a little off topic but they forced Professor X's baldness into his head I thought he went bald at 30 but it was apocalypse that took his hair away maybe I would apply the same theory in TNG a resonangcia or a space event according to the actor himself he says he went when he was 19y.

Where is your comment?
In "The Giant of Thunder Mountain" thread: viewtopic.php?p=96373#p96373

EDIT: Oh, now I see that pillowbaker answered this question!

...Worf could hardly admit that Klingons look different in later Trek because they got a bigger budget for makeup!

By the 24th century, men are no longer vain enough to worry about baldness so there is nothing to cure. ;) It is just like the natural effects of aging (wrinkles, gray hair) as seen in some of the characters over the years. They are not bothered by it. There is a Star Trek TNG movie that mocked extreme plastic surgery as used by those seeking to avoid getting old.

With Sully's comment, I just now read about Patrick Stewart going bald at a very young age (17-19):
https://www.businessinsider.com/patrick ... 23-10?op=1
I had never seen him in movies until he was fortyish, so I had no idea! Still, actual children are rarely bald unless they have severe health issues like progeria, or cancer being treated by chemotherapy. I never thought that he was a bald child, just that he looked good as a bald man. :P

The original series had the extended-childhood-and-death-at-adolescence episode "Miri" although the lead child in it (Kim Darby) was 19. Some of the supporting characters were younger. "And the Children Shall Lead" featured actual children playing children, in addition to a guest appearance by the devil. :twisted: (And yes, I know at least some of the original series by episode title. :ugeek: )

Captain Picard is uncomfortable with children, but Captain Kirk likes to make them cry.

I'm not at home right now to go looking for files, but I can think of a few suggestions off the top of my head. The TOS Episode "Miri" (don't remember the number). The Picard Episode, I'm pretty sure it was s01e07, featuring Lulu Wilson as Troi and Riker's daughter. And any episode of Voyager with Scarlett Pomers as Naomi Wildman. Or the episode where Seven found those drone children on the Borg cube.

Unfortunately the most memorable of the young cast (Kim Darby and Michael J. Pollard) were past being children. :(
The Picard Episode, I'm pretty sure it was s01e07, featuring Lulu Wilson as Troi and Riker's daughter.
Star Trek Picard s1.e7 "Nepenthe"
Da-amn! I can remember some episode NAMES, but never episode NUMBERS! :ugeek: :ugeek: :ugeek:
And any episode of Voyager with Scarlett Pomers as Naomi Wildman.
IMDB lists 16 episodes for Scarlett Pomers as Naomi Wildman, but she says the most memorable* was
Star Trek Voyager s5.e5 "Once Upon a Time"
*Scarlett Pomers reference: https://nedhardy.com/2023/05/03/scarlet ... %20acting.
Or the episode where Seven found those drone children on the Borg cube.

Star Trek s3.e4 "And the Children Shall Lead" (Episode aired Oct 11, 1968)
The Enterprise reaches a Federation colony where the adults have all killed themselves but the children play without care.
Longer synopsis
Spoiler:

The Enterprise responds to a distress call from the scientific colony on Triacus and arrives to find that all of the adults are dead. Oddly, the children seem unaffected by the deaths and continue to play as if nothing had happened. When questioned, they show no remorse whatsoever and express a dislike for parental authority. Expedition logs reveal that the expedition had discovered an ancient civilization and that there might be one survivor. In fact, the Gorgon thrives on the innocence of the children and the adults' self-doubt.
Features Pamelyn Ferdin from The Beguiled (1971)

Thanks guys, now I see it.

I watched that episode and Noley was great, interesting costume and headgear. But I'm not really interested in the other story lines.
