not sure I'm articulating any of this well, but I'm sad, so forgive me. Picard is a towering figure from my childhood, akin to a Pee-Wee Herman or Mr. Rogers. a character that was more like a guiding force than just a goofy TV space captain. can't imagine anyone doing it better than Stewart.

Syndicated spaceship dad is a highly specialized role to have the scope of impact that Captain Picard seems to have had on a lot of us. It's incredible to still feel these feelings about his arc over that series. And it's really because of Stewart that that's the case.

Stewart himself was a real mensch for a lot of reasons, but I always appreciated the love he poured into his genre and comedy roles. serious actors don't always devote real acting to those kinds of parts, but Stewart always did. Macbeth or Professor X, he went at it with the same level of craft.
