It took Star Trek: The next generation A few rough years to really find its space legs, and the show went through many changes on the way. A temporary change consisted far too much of the Star Trek Fedom.
Dr. Pulaski enters Star Trek
The next generation was a little more like The original series In the past, the new doctor was the producer’s wish to channel the early adventure of Captain Kirk. Therefore Pulaski was played by Diana Muldaur, someone who played in the original together with William Shatner Star Trek Series. Her character also loose after Dr. McCoy modeled why it hates the van and has a cantanry attitude towards data, the Android, which serves as a TNG version of Mr. Spock.
However, there was a large Pulaski problem from the start: while Star Trek: The original series Get about occasional conflicts in the middle of the crew, The next generation Was a show in which everyone got out more or less. However, when this new doctor was brought in, she immediately began to delete her heads with Captain Picard. She also had such antipathy to data that was based on the fact that he was an Android that fans accused them of racism, a label that never really disappeared.
In retrospect, it is easy to see why Pulaski’s character of Star Trek: The next generation Producers. As a strict, gender -specific clone by Dr. McCoy immediately helped her off the soft heart and nourishing mother figure of the Beverly Crusher. After her butt had introduced conflicts on the show with other characters, Gene Roddenberry had banned and that the writing of season 1 really suffer. And the fact that Muldaur played in the leading role The original series meant that she was still able to win older fans on the fence about the new spinoff show.
Pulaski was not a fan favorite
All of this sounded good on paper, but after a season of the attempt to enable Pulaski, the Star Trek writers and producers threw the towel. The producer Rick Berman later admitted that her figure “never worked entirely … Doctor Pulaski just never really solidified”. Accordingly, the Muldaur show did not download, although she was not disappointed because she felt that the new spinoff concentrated too much on technology and too little on character building.
One of the big reasons why Pulaski did not return to the new spinoff was the Star Trek Fandom, many of which started a passionate letter-writing campaign to Gates McFaddens Dr. Bred to bring crusher back to the show. They were accompanied by Patrick Stewartwho was also passionate in his personal campaign to bring his old colleague back. The combined pressure of the fans and the captain of TNG was enough to prompt Berman to personally recharge McFadden, and the rest is television history.
Dr. Pulaski had many interesting Star Trek: The next generation. Fortunately, she was replaced by Gates McFaddenA killer actor, whose figure has only become more prominent and popular over time. Finally, Dr. Breamer in the last season of central character PicardAnd this seriously satisfactory act would probably never have happened if the intensive fan campaign Diana Muldaur, who brings Gates McFadden back to the Enterprise, where it belonged.
