Trivia / Star Trek: Picard S1E05 "Stardust City Rag"

Go To

  • Celebrity Resemblance: Many fans commented that Bjayzl (Necar Zadegan) looks like Deanna Troi's (Marina Sirtis) long lost twin.
  • Milestone Celebration: This episode premiered just over 20 years to the day after "Collective", the episode which introduced the character of Icheb.
  • The Other Darrin: Unlike the other returning characters in the show, Maddox and Icheb are played by different actors than their prior appearances in the franchise. While Brian Brophy (Maddox) has retired from acting and now teaches theater, no official comment has been made why Manu Intiraymi (Icheb) wasn't asked back note .
  • Word of God: Michael Chabon wrote a Medium article describing his thoughts about the planet Freecloud, which the episode is mostly set on. It's described as an anarcho-capitalist enclave situated between the three major Beta Quadrant powers (at least until the 2387 supernova reduced that count to two).
