    There’s interviews with Frakes where he talks about stepping into the director’s role for a few episodes and quickly realizing that it was very difficult to do when the cast would goof off up until the word ACTION gets called.

    So Stewart probably had a point, especially from production’s view.

      Neat.

      Incidentally, Jonathan Frakes now directs fantastic episodes of television.

      Many science fiction shows have had Jonathan Frakes direct just an episode or two, and they usually end up being favorites.
