That's all because he started his Star Trek career taking himself far to seriously as an actor: he needed that on hand reminder to lighten the fuck up.

Star Trek was protopian, it needed to present at positive, despite all the conflict that occurs. That means having 'up' people on screen, less there's a damn good reason to be down.

I Just restarted TNG yesterday, you can tell right off that the actors haven't gotten a grasp on their characters yet. But even the second episode shows a lot of improvement.
