We know he can do this; we've seen him do it in a dozen movies and on a hundred talk shows. He's getting to be like the goofy uncle who knows one corny parlor trick and insists on performing it at every family gathering."'' |

Now that's an Oscar-worthy stretch...FACT: Actors enjoy being in musicals 100 times more than you enjoy ''watching'' them in musicals. It's like filming an updated resume for them."'' |

7 | ->''"When the Doctor turns up on stage [[Theatre/{{Pagliacci}} looking like a complete clown]], it pretty much summed up my feelings towards his characterisation in this installment....I thought ''Voyager'' was his home and his family, and just because this [[PlanetOfHats race of Munchkins]] revere his singing, he finds that a good enough reason enough to ditch everybody who gave him a chance to express himself? It's such shallow, surface characterisation that even [Robert] Picardo cannot salvage it."'' |
