TNG is my Star Trek of choice. It’s an extremely unpopular opinion but I liked Dr. Pulaski a lot more than Dr. Crusher. In fact, Crusher is my least favorite main character in TNG. I think the reason people didn’t like Dr. Pulaski was that damned hair style they gave her. It made her stiff and unapproachable.
Noo the hair is great. I think Pulaski was better too. It’s just that the vast majority of star trek fans identity with data because of reasons and she’s not warm off the bat or geared towards the masculine gaze. She’s a top notch doctor but before she’s been through the particular experiences that lend to a cold but genuinely helpful empathy. Which would have made for some killer character development had she not been replaced.

A review that nobody could hold a candle to. 😏

I also thought Crusher was blah, and her hair is pretty weird too, NGL, it is so 80s in its own way.
