I hoped for Barclay but it's Beverly Crusher.

don’t understand Barclay stans.

He was problematic AF and then when he did have confidence, he was always a bit of a dick. And he had the absolute worse combover in starfleet.

His story arc in Voyager is pretty redeeming.

[–] ren@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Yeah, we just did a rewatch and I’m still… not a stan. He just gives me the heeby jeebies.

If Barclay can't even command an away mission how is he going to command a starship?

I was reeeeeeaaaallly hoping for a Barclay cameo in Picard. Alas, poor Barclay never gets a break.

[–] someguy3@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

He got a lot in Voyager.

Barclay's actor has become a truly odious person in real life –– I don't think the TNG cast (Stewart in particular) would have agreed to have him on the show.

Yeah, sadly that’s my impression as well. I really like his acting style and remember him especially for this scene. But it’s not easy to separate the artist from his art.

Crusher? Shes a doctor, not a captain

I can’t quite imagine how the TNG -> Picard timeline for her works out given this, presuming this is meant to fit into the same timeline. Can someone who knows the comics universe lay it out?
