She screwed her career and I kind of feel sorry for her (just a little bit)She didn't have the patience to stick with the show a show/ franchise with a huge loyal fan base and proven track record. Instead she decided to leave it since it wasn't instantly great Then spends the next several seasons trying to make a comeback onto the show and career trying to leach off the series
>>219178103They should have brought back her sister instead
patrick stewart's agent also tried to get him to quit, it wasn't an uncommon thing after that first seasonshe was retarded for having them straight up kill her character. Gates McFadden also quit but was able to come back since her character wasn't fucking dead
>>219178103Whose screentime would have suffered the most if she stayed?
>>219178211Gates McFadden got fired. They brought her back because the rest of the cast hated polaski and wouldn't stop bitching.
>>219178217Worf I assume
>>219178217well worf wouldnt have been promoted
>>219178237right I forgot, she had a lot of animosity with the lead writer tho
>>219178252Worf and Geordi didn't even have yellow shirts in the first season. The writers had no idea what to do with half the characters. Geordi got promoted two ranks and made the chief engineer and they never said anything about it.
>>219178103But man…. What a bush.
>>219178582Dei
>>219178103I miss when rape gangs seems like a shocking concept and not just something I have to like to not be an Islamophobe
Q: Who's a pirate's favorite Star Trek character?A: Lieutenant Commander Data
>>219178103>hold my beer
>>219178103She looks so good in Miracle Mile.
>>219178179>mfw every time this scene comes on
>>219178103I read that michelle forbes was supposed to be the star of DS9. Imagine if we got her instead of Sisko. Though I bet she'd just have replaced Kira.
>>219182072He looks just like that one gangbanged ex-tranny
>>219178103Didn't she try to pivot to movies? Or was it really just because the first season wasn't good?
>>219182490both
>>219182436sorry man, don't keep an active mental list of a bunch of gross freaks.
>>219182635A lot of actors try that and most of the time it doesn't work. The guy who played Dario in GoT decided playing Agent 47 in some dogshit Hitman movie qas the better choice than coming back for the next season.
>>219178237shame, I actually really liked Polaski and her interactions with the crew
Denise Crosby came from a pretty famous entertainment family. Bing Crosby wasn't a huge global superstar or anything, but Denise was from some money and didn't have to work to eat.The poor working conditions and questionable material probably made jumping ship seem reasonable. And the head producer guy was probably trying to cram his dick in her mouth
>>219182916They should have let her die in that aging episode. I thought it was cool that Tasha died when I first saw it because I felt like characters could die but they never killed off anyone again really, not even redshirts.
>>219178835>What a bushno one in /trek/ ever told me about these...
>>219183019if she had died they could have also given random actors a vacation by having them get injured and have to be shipped off to a medical station for a week and given the show more of the edge the original had. I like this idea
>>219178179Somebody shooped his pupils right? I feel like I would have noticed blocking this funny when I was watching
>>219182404She's definitely an early kira draft, not the commander
>>219182953Rick Berman was a a sick fuck from what I recall
>>219183317Just let me dream of a world where I don't have to watch Sisko act.
>>219182404Too bad really. Forbes can actually act and Ro was easily the best female character of TNG despite having only a handful of appearances.
who was the kind of paula abdul lookin chick that spilled on gene luck pickerd. was she in only 2 episodes? i don't know what happened with the actress
>>219178103I've had this thought before but to be fair, she's had steady work ever since then with a million guest appearances in various shows and some recurring roles as well. She's also way more a part of the TNG mythos than almost any other 1 season regular is for any other show. So all things considered, her career turned out fine. Definitely better than 99.99% of people that try to make it as an actor.
>>219178103I thought you were talking about the character at first. Which now makes me think if the way Sela was written was in part a joke from the writers on Crosby leaving the show.
>>219182953I forget sometimes her grandfather was thst guy. You still hear his music regularly around Christmas time which is way more relevance than most singers from the 1940's still have
>>219183374how dare you he completely sold me as a mentally ill histrionic clown who runs from his mistakes and changes his moral compass every month
>>219183714So Sisko WAS supposed to a women?
>>219182404This bitch really wouldn't commit to Trek just because she didn't want to be tied down and wanted a more varied acting career but I bet most people don't remember her from her non sci-fi roles
>>219182953Can you blame him?
>>219183714The first episode is insane. It's like he was never asked to audition or they never asked him to emote in them besides speaking flatly. There aren't a lot of other episodes I remember where he has to act emotional but my god it's the first episode. It's like he was an Italian Spiderman extra.
>>219183926Jesus wept, you creatures really did need Troi to tell you what everyone was feeling.
>>219183794These two bitches did my boy kellerman dirty
>>219184073lol troi is the worst part of the show by a country mile.>a bunch of retarded ferengi jump around screaming "i'm greedy and lying!">troi: i get the sense that they're greedy and lying.not to mention every situation when they just decide not to use her powers.
>>219178103Anon, butterfly effect!If she stayed there is no guarantee the show would succeed. Indeed it was probably the trimming of the cast that allowed it to soar.
>>219184177That and Gene Roddenberry dying. Star Trek would likely have been considerably worse if he had still been alive throughout the 90's
>>219183926I've tried to watch DS9 3 times, one of which I just skipped to the dominion war arc. I simply could not endure his acting. He is atrocious. Godawful. Just unbearable. I've never dropped a show because of a single actor in my life. It really sucks cause I love that era of Trek but I can't do it.
>career dies>forced to do softcoreBeing an actress was tough in the 80s and 90s
>>219184520I always think Sisko sounds like he’s a smooth operator trying to seduce a girl in a jazz club. Especially when he’s talking to his son.
>>219184629He sounds like a stage actor in the worst way possible.
>>219184600Surely it’s not as bad as podcasting
>>219184671Well at least one i can jack off to
>>219183926hmmmmmmmhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbpTsPfd8Hw&pp=ygURc2lza28gbWVldHMgcXVhcms%3Dhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmjkzWfs6ewCould be worse
>>219184486pravda
>>219184486Gene Roddenberry died in season 5. TNG was already a classic in seasons 3 and 4.
>>219184520He's fine in most scenes because he's an emotionally-compromised widower, but the problems arise when he's supposed to be angry and instead he talks like he's parodying a gospel preacher. He's the same way in American History X so I guess he's just not good at acting angry
>>219183132/trek/ is a general for pedophiles. There's a reason their mascot is Neelix.
>>219185033Ironically pedophiles tend to like Star-Trek for some reason
>>219184929Roddenberry was ill during seasons 3 and 4 and had barely any involvement. Michael Piller coming on board is what really propelled it into greatness. Gene was preventing writers from creating stories where there was character conflict because he thought society would move past such petty things in the future. You can imagine how complete dogshit the rest of the show would be if they had had to stick to that past season 1.
>>219183480she was the chick with 3 tits in the original Total Recall
>>219185080That was a trend mostly in the 00s. it’s because when the police catch people on cp it’s an internet crime involving people who have enough internet intelligence to find the honeypots, ie nerds. Nerds liked trek. And the most withdrawn nerds are likely withdrawn because their preferences don’t jive with society, and the more withdrawn you are from society the more time you have to be an even bigger fan of something. Bingo bango. Im sure now its trooncore and anime stuff.
>>219178103I think if she stayed on the show would have sufferedcast was still a bit too large even after she leftI mean, logistically they didn't even have to replace her, they just gave all her duties to worf
>>219178103https://youtu.be/ZZRWWmDheEU?t=1895TNG Season 1 was pretty shitty to work on, Rick Berman was a notorious penny pincher. They had to steal food from bigger shows just to eat.
>>219185577I like 90s Trek but the pedo allegations have an element of truth to them. Look at Neelix and 3 year old Kes. Look at Seven of Nine - she was assimilated at 6 years old so her mental maturation stopped. Then she's freed from the Borg, leaving her as a 6 year old girl in a grown woman's turbo slut body. Look at Keiko being reverted to a child but still wanting O'Brien's Big Irish Cock. The first season of Picard had a woman getting fucked by a guy but she finds out later that she's an android and she's actually 3 years old. There's no shortage of dodgy shit like this. The writers need their hard drives checked.
>>219186867None of this is particularly untoward, only someone with pedo OCD or childless 30-something woman would think otherwise.My 3000 year old lolibaba wife thinks so too.
>>219187028what religion are you
>>219184152My head canon is she is the reason why no one is traumatized episode to episode for the most part after going through all the crazy shit we see, but we just don't get to see her sexy psychic therapy sessions. Because god damn they've been through a lot.
>>219183926He was playing a bitter, burnt out, widower/single father who just got deployed to bumfuck nowhere and who was so fucking mad at life he essentially told his commanding officer (Picard) to go fuck himself.What the fuck did you want Brooks to do, giggle?
>>219187167whichever one you like the most
>>219178103The show was awful when she left and she wasn't getting major play. She didn't really screw her career so much as she missed out on a lot of royalty checks.
>>219187207They literally commit suicide every time they tp. They must be a little callous to it all
>>219185577>trooncore and anime stuff.Fun fact tons if people working on Star Trek were massive fucking weeaboos. Urusei Yatsura, Gunbuster, Nadia, Dirty Pair references are hidden everywhere in the set designs and details. Like Nadion is what makes phasers work. They used plamo for props like Orguss'backpack is on the bottom of the StargazerAlso all these anime are actually good because 80s mecha anime was amazing and everything now is shit.
>>219184152She was eye candy, incel.
>>219187263Not really there are so many good episodes where Picard gets mindfucked and he was still fucked up about being assimilated. And Beverly should have gotten therapy for jerking to her grandma's diary...
>>219187294>look it up because curious>first result*raised eyebrow emoji*though it’s all pleb tier stuff to begin with
I played hockey with her son growing up. She was really nice but her son was an autistic sperg who punched her once
>>219183794>Data! You're shouting again, Data!
>>219183794Forbes was excellent as the Pegasus captain / admiral in BSG.Some actors are just better when they are able to camp it up in sci-fi. Look at Walter Koenig in Babylon 5. The man stole every episode he was in.
>>219187418Star Trek is pleb tier scifi so it fits well I don't get the troon shit though I just wanted to talk about anime. fucking christ they're worse than those tape worms that climb up your piss stream into your urethra in the amazon.
>>219178103>She screwed her career and I kind of feel sorry for herYeah, trying to take over Vulcan with 2000 troops was kind of half baked
>>219187552Nigga what
>>219184671Frakes and Brent have a podcast show on youtube now.
