I'm not a trekkie but spend enough time online... Is no one going to say anything about him still being in a red shirt?

As a Trekkie, I can say that you'd rather be in a red shirt from ST:TNG, over a gold shirt. Thw original series, it was dangerous to be in a red shirt, and safe to be any other color shirt. Also, both Picard and Riker have red uniforms.

The colors indicate specialization. In TOS, gold was the color of command officers, red was for operations officers (which included engineering officers), and blue indicated science or medical officers. In TNG, they flip-flopped the colors for command and ops, and that carried forward in the timeline.

The red shirts always die.

TNG isn't so color-coded for deaths. Now that I think about, I think the enterprise crew mortality rate was *much* lower on TNG in general.
