10 Best Captain Picard Noises

November 3, 2016 2 Comments

They say actions speak louder than words, but sometimes noises can be louder than actions. Captain Picard made a lot of noise in Star Trek: The Next Generation, both figuratively and literally – this time, let’s focus on the latter.

1. (awkward laugh) – The Naked Now

Picard and Dr. Crusher
Known in some circles as the “Beavis” laugh; invoked when the inebriated Dr. Crusher got a little too close for comfort.

2. (gasp) – Where No One Has Gone Before

Picard turbolift hallucination
It’s a gasp made out of three separate noises!

3. “Mmm-mmm” – Skin of Evil

Picard talking to Armus
Standing up to a powerful creature that just killed his security chief. This is the first time Picard really kicked ass in the show.

4. (scream) – Night Terrors

Picard turbolift hallucination
What is it with Picard’s hallucinations involving the turbolift? Unlike the previous example, it’s fear that generates this noise, not surprise.

5. (scream) – Chain of Command, Part 2

Picard tortured
In this powerful episode, Picard screams several times – each sounding more pained than the last.

6. (laugh) – Tapestry

Relieved to be stabbed, personal timeline restored. An iconic moment.

7. (scream) – Timescape

Picard Timescape A
He screams a couple times this episode but with this first one, Stewart does a good job of selling the pain of having one’s fingernails grown at an accelerated rate.

7. (laugh) – Timescape

Timescape gets two entries in this list? Yes it does.

8. (grunt) – Liasions

Picard feels an ouch
Another example of Stewart effectively portraying pain; sharp, immobilizing pain in this scene, to be specific.

9. (grunt) – Star Trek Generations

Soran punching Picard
Picard is a philosopher, not a fighter, and his high-pitched, hoarse grunts reveal how out of his element he is.

10. (yell) – Star Trek: First Contact

Picard yelling
All that pent up rage released with a primal scream.

    The only thing that would make this better is if each photo was actually a video file of the sound itself. Or a .mp3 file that we could click, or turn into a texting sound. Or put all of them together for a ring.
    DOOOO EEEET.

      That’s a good idea and I might actually do this!
