John Delance showing up was phenomenal. Things were only slightly spoiled by a few ######s feeling the need to yell out stupid remarks during spots while cast members were sharing moments. A couple were funny, like the guy who yelled "I feel sick!" to Gates, which she responded by telling him to let her find her tricorder and meet her in her quarters. ;D But the tool who bellowed during a touching comment by Levar Burton needed a kick in the back of the head from whoever was sitting behind him. Patrick Stewart was fantastic. What was with Denise Crosby and the Flames toque? Bleh...
I believe the 30 minute intermission was necessary because they didn't get all the whole-cast photo sessions done. Did you notice those blocks of seats that were totally open and unfilled in the otherwise capacity crowd from 7:20-8:30? I think those were the VIPs with the photo session passes and they were all backstage doing the photos (~$400 a pop I think!).

It was hilarious when McFadden said: "I don't have my tricorder, meet me in my room!" and then Patrick Stewart said: "That's what Jean-Luc wished Dr. Crusher would have said to him".

Denise Crosby was meh the whole time. She was the real outsider and a bit awkward (I heard Frakes and her got into a fight previously) and coming out in the Flames toque just felt like sucking up the to the crowd.

The audience questions were surprisingly high quality, and much better than the ones the lame Innerspace moderators asked, ie:

"Brent, do you think we will ever have Androids as advanced as your character?"

Spiner: "Why are you asking me? Ask a real scientist"
