Is Dr. Pulaski the absolute worst?




I seriously can't stand her and her constant beratement of Data.

"he can't possibly understand, he's just a pile of gears".

Fuck you!

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]



You are going to have to give at least 5 reasons why Pulaski is better than Crusher.

And you can't include reference to the episode where Crusher had sex with her great grandma's ghostboyfriend

I never really liked Crusher until her acting improved significantly in Picard Season 3. I see her value now.

Ok Lea, I'll accept it.

I'm not even saying that Crusher was all that great. I just hate Pulaski for the way she spoke to everyone and was in constant disagreement.

Now Beverly and Deanna exercise mode. 90s tv at its best

The thing is, because a lot of TNGS2 was recycled from unused Phase 2 scripts, Pulaski's attitude towards Data was because a lot of her material was written for Dr McCoy berating Spock.

What the writers apparently didn't realise is that Spock's reliance on emotionless logic is by choice (a very important choice, but still something he could theoretically abandon), while Data actively wants to experience emotion, but literally can't, which makes her constant complaints come across less as "I respect you but your habits annoy me" and more "I despise the very core of your existence".

Well that's something thing I didn't know. Would explain her stupid phobia of Transporters if they were doing more of a Bones feel. But that doesn't excuse her for canoodling with Rikers dad.

Yeah Picard S3 had surprisingly good performances from the whole OG cast. I wish they had given Pulaski a role, she would have at least been a more interesting callback than Holodeck Moriarty. Pulaski as the Borg Queen face-reveal, that's how I'd write it

Pulaski was fine. More interesting than S1 Crusher. The only problem was the way she treated Data, and that progressed. Still happy how it turned out. But yeah, she was basically shoehorned in as "female McCoy" and while it was an interesting detour, I doubt it works longterm.

So a planet's somewhere out there, their history the same as ours is written. The only difference is that... Everyone's a kitten!

Crusher is pretty much the most boring character in the show so the replacement wasn't a big deal. Pulaski was also mid as hell though so, eh?
