If Anson Mount appeared in my living room to deliver a mission briefing, I would probably just stare at his hair and forget how to operate a warp core.

Anson Mount's portrayal of Pike is so impossibly heroic that it makes the rest of us look like we are struggling with simple tasks like operating a toaster.

I told my boss I wanted to be more like Anson Mount, and he told me I should start by shaving my head and finding a starship to command, which seems like a bit of a stretch.
