This Star Trek: The Next Generation crew member appeared in the pilot episode before being promptly forgotten. While TNG’s two-part premiere, “Encounter at Farpoint,” established many aspects that continued throughout the series, some elements didn’t quite stick. Captain Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) and the crew of the USS Enterprise-D would go on to become as beloved as the cast of Star Trek: The Original Series, but it took time for the show to find itself. Lt. Tasha Yar (Denise Crosby) would only stick around for the first season of TNG and Dr. Beverly Crusher (Gates McFadden) would leave the show and then return.
