I will always love Pulaski for being an actual uncompromising robo-racist on a ship full of starry-eyed Roddenberry-esque care bears.
Like, it's not *good* that she was all "Data, you're not really a person and I don't trust you"; it's a shitty thing. But it's good that there was a member of the crew who was actually capable of being unsympathetically shitty about something and in conflict with another crew member over the long haul, however gently so because TNG was still TNG.
@joshmillard I had too much of a thing for Baberly Crusher to really enjoy Diana Muldaur, but she always had lots of Trek cred for having done not one but two TOS guest spots. And, yeah, now I can more appreciate her being the Sipowicz of TNG.
