LeVar Burton Geordi TNG Screen Test Photo

Oh the gems that will be unleashed on our modern internet with the release of the Star Trek The Next Generation Blu-rays.

LeVar Burton: Geordi La Forge screen test photo, with interesting hair

Seems like all these things are going to need some TNG Season 8 humour to go along with them. How about this one:

The Borg show up and somehow randomizing the phasers actually works for once. Geordi starts to wear a hairband that looks like eyeglasses.

Wow, ok, so we apologize for spreading some misinformation all those years ago - this was one of the other actors in the running for the Geordi job, Clarence Gilyard Jr. Confirmed by Mr. Burton himself weeks after we posted.
