Bev was so underwritten I never noticed.
I always liked Bev in TNG, but she was often the Chekov of that series. Usually there, usually having lines but not much to do.
I thought Pulaski was more interesting but I think she and Wesley did have a few good scenes as mother and son.
Pulaski was more interesting period. Beverly was fine, but once you knew she was Picard's one-time love interest and the mom of Wesley and widow of Picard's late best friend there wasn't much left the producers did with her.
I mean, ghost fucking. I guess.

But she put on plays! TNG crew new how to have fun. Go listen to classical music. Watch a play Dr Crusher play put on. Play poker despite nobody having money to bet on. Have sex with Riker. So many options.
Pulaski got better development in 1 season than Crusher got in 6.
Sulu was into botany and collected antique firearms and loved fencing and yeah, a lot of good most of that did him or audiences.

He also had that annoying fascination with time pieces as well according to Scotty. Also as Demora shows he also liked having sex.
George was a guest at a fan run Con where I was on the ConCom back in the early 1990s. We got to have dinner with him and the other guests Friday night. A class act is how I'd describe him.

Well, the one time for sure.He also had that annoying fascination with time pieces as well according to Scotty. Also as Demora shows he also liked having sex.
As it should be. I see no reason why it had to be "expensive". You build up the library shots just like you did for the whole ship. Editing and story telling should have easily carried the day here.
The ship separating wasn't any more inherently dramatic than standard orbit. The ship being in danger was the drama.
No offense to McFadden, but she wasn't Patrick Stewart or Avery Brooks. And Stewart and Wheaton did a pretty good job together.
There's got to be a better comparison than Chekov. McFadden would have given a leg to have as much screen time and character as Chekov.
I mean, Liam Shaw was more interesting. He sucked and I hated him, but that's interest.
Yes, I'm entirely hung up on Data. If she really had been as indifferent to him as a piece of machinery that might have been something. But she was MAD about it.
She was a bold and vivid character. Not one I wished to spend time with.
