Earl Grey 102: Emergency Power to Analogy Generators

Beverly Crusher.

The pilot episode of The Next Generation, "Encounter at
Farpoint," introduced the newest doctor of the U.S.S. Enterprise
- Dr. Beverly Crusher, a widow and single mother. Throughout the
first season, viewers saw this woman cure diseases, have an
"interesting" relationship with her old friend Captain Jean-Luc
Picard, and raise her ship-saving son, Wesley. And then she
disappeared for season two. However, Dr. Crusher's return in
season three, and her constant presence through the end of TNG
and the four feature films, showed an in-depth character that
Darren, Daniel, and Phillip analyze in this episode.

Earl Grey focuses on the (good) Crusher-centric episodes like
"Remember Me," "Ethics," "Suspicions," and "Attached," discussing
how Beverly came across as funny, professional, and an
"in-charge" Starfleet commander. They also examine Dr. Crusher's
relationships with other characters, her many artistic hobbies,
and her many turns in the captain's chair. So put on your blue
coat, put a hypospray in your pocket just in case, and listen to
Earl Grey's character profile of Dr. Beverly Crusher.
