Patrick Stewart was on Conan years ago and told a story about being in a hotel room by himself, years after Star Trek: The Next Generation had been canceled: it's like 1:00 am, he orders some room service and starts flipping channels and happens to come across a random episode of TNG. Because they had shot so many episodes and production was often so hectic (shooting different parts from different episodes in the same day, shooting scenes out of order, etc.), he had no memory of that particular episode or how it ended. So he starts watching it and pretty soon he's caught up in the story, excited to see how it ends... and then the room service shows up. And Stewart realized that, to the room service guy, it must have looked really sad/pathetic, Patrick Stewart sitting alone in his hotel room excitedly watching old reruns of himself on Star Trek.

I wish I could find the clip of him telling the story.

The thing about us Star Trek fans is that it's impossible to tell if that request was a joke or not.

I noticed it. I think everyone figured it was a typo and was just being polite.

I was once on a call (on mute) with Danny Devito and my boss where they were discussing some confidential stuff. In Hollywood, anytime you're talking to an executive, you should assume there's at least one assistant on the line taking notes, so if you want to discuss something really sensitive, you ask to be on the line alone.

Anyway, Danny was like, "Is there anybody else on the line?" and my boss says, "Yeah, my assistant is, but he's ok." I hop off mute and chime in with a "Yeah, I'm here, you can trust me." So then Danny swears me to secrecy "under penalty of ball removal." Then I go back on mute.

He discusses whatever the secret thing was (I honestly don't even remember that part) and then the call wraps up so he says to my boss, "Ok, I'll talk to you later. And you... watch your balls."
