I don’t know whether it’s a popular opinion or not, but I think Dr. Pulaski was a great character and I found her much more interesting than Dr. Crusher. I don’t know if it was down to the writing or the performance but Pulaski is one of the best parts of season 2 and I would have been happy to see her character continue.
She wasn’t very nice to Data but that bit of friction between some of the main characters of the show was welcome, especially in the early seasons. And her performance in Unnatural Selection is a moment in the series my mind returns to often.
How about it? Do we like Dr. Pulaski? What’s her best moment on the show?
She hated on Data, she can burn in hell. Beverly Kusher otoh is Bae, only bested by EMH who is best doctor.
No one ever appreciated her
First TNG watch throughl, she was And impediment to s02 crusher. But as I’ve watched repeatedly, she was a great character who made her presence known. She wasn’t perfect, but she was interesting and she changed as the season went on wrt Data. I still think she was a eagerly underrated character.
I like her in so far as that she made Data even stronger by constantly challenging him. But she is also a stark contrast of the rest of the vibe on the show. Clearly they wanted a Bones analogue but it just didn’t work. I’ve also read a lot about how she operated on set and didn’t seem like everyone really got along with her, which kinda shows in the season.
Why did they not have 2 doctors? Its a big ship. There was room for both.
