I don’t get the Robert Beltran one. Can anyone clarify?

I watched the show when it originally aired on UPN, and I have to admit, I thought that’s all she was for. It was UPN, after all, and that network wasn’t afraid to be sleazy if it boosted ratings.

I was very happy to be proven wrong. She turned out to be a genuinely interesting character who enabled some great stories.

Oh they totally did hire her as eyecandy. They just also happened to write her character really well so they got to eat their cake too. She didn’t even want to do it, but, IIRC, Obama convinced her to do it just because it’s Star Trek and would be great for her career.

FlyingSquid, 24 days ago

To be fair- Berman hired her as eye candy. Jeri Taylor and Michael Piller then figured out something interesting to do with her.

magnetosphere, 24 days ago

Great move. I’m glad they exploited the character’s potential instead of just her bod.

magnetosphere, 24 days ago

… Obama convinced her to do it…

Is this the funniest spellcheck error I’ve ever seen, or is there something I’m missing?

Kolanaki, 24 days ago

I actually misremembered the story and had it all backwards. Obama isn’t responsible for her being on the show; her being on the show could partly be responsible for him getting elected.

She got the job and had to move to Hollywood. Her husband wouldn’t go with her. They divorced. Her husband became Obama’s campaign manager or something. Obama became president.

Couldn’t help myself. Please forgive me.

FlyingSquid, 24 days ago

Technically true, but you don’t have to say it…

But onions have layers.

Yeah, she is not mentally well unfortunately. Or at least wasn’t at the time. I hope she’s doing better these days.

I’m not going to give her shit for it. Margot Kidder got into similar issues because of her bipolar disorder.

Nice! I love them too.
