'All I Want For Christmas...'

Captain Jean-Luc Picard doesn't want a lot for Christmas.

There is just one thing he needs.

As far as I’m concerned, this is canon now.

Friendly reminder that Q once said that if he had known Picard's weakness was love, he would have appeared to him as a woman. As such, this is now canon. Thank you.

I hope to God that Stewart and De Lancie see this eventually.

A funny side effect of stitching Picard's lines together is that it gives what he says a Shatner/Kirk cadence.

"I don't want to box with Sisko!" Amazing. This is my new Christmas jam.

[horstcredible]

Absolutely looks like something Q would have produced.
Imagine Q would have put this video to play on repeat on every screen in the enterprise for christmas.

“I don’t want to box with Sisco, all the way on Deep Space Nine”
“Voyager will be just fine”
Just including their own lyrics makes it absolutely hilarious.

that well placed "baby" gets me every time XD

I love the pause when he says Q. Like he knows that he has to say it but really doesn’t want to.

[caileyrookids]

I could almost see Q orchestrating this somehow. I don't know how, but having Captain Picard sing this with him really sounds like Q.

Mister Worsley could have gotten away with releasing a 30-second version, but they put in the work to give us all that we could ever want.

Q bless you, John.😂

You just saved not only Christmas, but 2020 entirely. We love this.

“Even gods have their favorites, Jean-Luc. And you've always been one of mine.” - Q

It's a credit to Patrick Stewart's ability as a orator and sense of timing that you were able to lift the Shakespearean prose and use it in unedited form across that entire bridge. Excellent video. Thanks!

[Bodneyblue]

I once saw Patrick Stewart live in a one man show. "A Christmas Carol" . He played ALL the characters...It was EXCELLENT!

[silentsnooper]

Omfg I'm seeing this for the first time in 2024... This needs to be played in every retail outlet instead. THIS IS GOLD PLATED LATINUM!! <3

[crungus__]

Yet again, I make my yearly pilgrimage to this video

[swishfish]

Menage a Troi may have been terrible, but at least it gave us Picard's Sonnet.

PiQard ship wasn't something I expected to need that much until this video

[IamJacksSTD]

Okay I've finally found the ship that makes me understand the enemies to lovers trope. This is fucking beautiful.
