The Vibe That Is Data

Positively Trek 269: The Vibe That Is Data

Part 2: Data in Nemesis, Picard, and Beyond…

Warning: This episode contains spoilers for all three seasons of Star Trek: Picard, as well as minor spoilers for the first episode of Star Trek: Discovery’s fifth and final season.

Data is one of the most enduring and beloved characters in the Star Trek universe. When the character was killed off in the film Star Trek Nemesis, many Trek fans believed that he would one day be back. Now, thanks to Star Trek: Picard, they have been proven right when Data was raised from the dead not once, but twice!

In this episode of Positively Trek, hosts Barry and Dan continue their two-part discussion of Data. We talk about his death in Nemesis, what that death means in the larger context of pop culture, his first resurrection in season one of Star Trek: Picard, his (extremely) extended family, and finally his most recent incarnation in Picard’s third season!
