So in the end Picard and Crusher end up together, as do Riker and Troi...arguably both relationships that were in play as early as the pilot episode of TNG.

Given how things ultimately evolved between the four of them, how do we feel about Picard-Crusher and Riker-Troi?

Personally I'm kind of okay with how Riker-Troi ended up. I don't really like their relationship per se (Troi-Worf was a lot more interesting to me), but "Nepenthe" does a really nice job of showing how they've built a life together (indeed, it kind of bugged me how S3 semed to unwind some of that).

I'm not really a fan of how Picard-Crusher turned out. Jack doesn't really do anything for me, and it feels a bit too much like Jim Kirk and Carol Marcus...except that Kirk at least knew David existed and kept his distance because Carol asked him to.

While I thought it was a cop-out that the relationship happened off screen, the flirtations during TNG were great, IMO. McFadden and Stewart were pros, and they played like a couple that should be.

I much preferred the depiction in AGT, where they'd had a relationship at some point but it hadn't worked out.
 
I always liked Picard/Crusher, while I'm not happy their relationship happened off screen and Beverly went no contact for two decades I do like that they ended up together.
I didn't care for Riker/Troi, I never saw the appeal.
