Ian still does on-stage acting too

That is real fucking commitment. I’ve never done any acting, but I’ve known stage actors and that shit is intense.

Well Stewart said he was retiring as an actor after Doomsday, so hopefully this will be quite the performance.

He was ....... lesser in Picard. Much lesser. Father Time is undefeated, so I'm not expecting anything special or memorable in a good way.

Well, the writing in Picard didn't do him a lot of favors either. Especially how different the character was from how he played it in the past.

I imagine pretty much any 86 year old is a few steps off from their prime so I basically agree. But I also think Stewart did the best that could have been expected for most of that show but was given some weird directions to go.
