    And she was Star Trek alum. The only regular on TNG that had also been on the Original Series.

    Pulaski was indeed good. But Crusher was better. Especially the v1.5 character that came back to the show. Full Commander, command experience, clever as fuck (solving actual murders and conspiracies), not being a doe-eyed soccer mom all the time.

    Apart from the infamous candle fucking, her episodes are among the best of the series.

      My conrade in Starfleet, this woman gonna bring spirits onto your ship if she can’t get the Captain’s attention… She is a liability on any space vessel.

        Well… it was a ghost inside a candle… that was actually an alien… that looked like a guy out of a romance novel… that also fucked her grandmother… but always as a glowing cloud of gas instead of the handsome guy… on Planet Scotland…

        Let’s just say it wasn’t the best episode.

          I have always hated that episode but you kind of have to respect how far the writers took it. Like one of those things you listed would be an episode. They shoved them all into one episode and still had a B plot that was commitment.
