I'd heard/read?? that Spiner didn't want to play Data again and only appeared in the characters he did play in Season 2 because of that desire. But I'm glad he's back as Data in Season 3 and I think some nice touches in Episode 8 when Geordi and Data get to chat and share some thoughts / feelings :)
