    She thought about leaving because she didn’t feel like her character got to do enough - a common sentiment of supporting actors.

      It was TNG that really established an ensemble cast formula; TOS was Kirk-Spock-McCoy and the rest. It took TNG a couple seasons before they got the idea of a true ensemble cast where everyone gets to star in some episodes. TOS wouldn’t have had more than one episode starring Reginald Barcklay with Geordi and Dianna in supporting roles, but TNG had at least two.

        Three, even. Horny holideck, barkley gets his groove on, and transporter cuddles.
