Wesley Crusher is objectively the best character in all of Star Trek

If it's on Memory Alpha, it's canon.

He grew up to be a real man's man. The kind of manly man that is secure enough in his manhood to let his wife get taken by another man.

for something to be objectively true it must be measurable. Given his track record he has accomplished very little. in fact his most noteworthy en devour is a failed flight maneuver resulting in the death of fellow cadet. physically he is very frail, his intelligence is a facade, more a projection of ego. he believes himself to be smarter than he actually is, and is coddled by his mother to not face reality, his a futuristic interpretation of a rick and morty fan.

But if we get into the abstract, that with gives us emotional connection to the character and an understanding of who they are, your claim holds more ground. Consider Spock and Data. They both have a difficulty understanding emotions, and have hard time going against logical computation in favor of a moral action, yet they do and can eventually learn to better understand the effects of morality outside of logic. people have always been torn by doing what is most logical and benificial against morality an vice versa. this gives there character an emotional resonance. Another example is Quark, it is very enjoyable to watch someone be devoid of that morale boundary and act purely of greed.

Now lets take a good hard look at will. he resonates all in negatives. he is like a reflection of the viewer that they do not wish to see. he reminds people of the traits they have and hate in others or remind people of when they used to be like that. in that regard he is objectively the best star trek character, as no other character produces such a strong emotional response as will does. even if it is loathing.

>Will

as slow as this board is, anon should have proof-read it the next morning when he sobered up. Not that he's wrong, but many newcomers to TNG could be led to believe that there was something more weighty and existential to Riker's beard and weight gain besides latent depression trigged by losing his Binar-created perfect holodeck waifu and re-enforced by ayys constantly manipulating his vulnerable feelings surrounding a more normal domestic situation that he lacks but deeply desires.

anon was referring to the character of Wesley Crusher by the (misspelled) first name of his actor, Wil Wheaty, thus inviting confusion with the character William "Will" Riker.

This should be clearer when you re-read the post (as anon should have done before submitting). You may also want to consider viewing Star Trek: The Next Generation in the manner it was originally intended: periodically, out of order, and without an internet-connected device to distract you. By devoting more attention to the show, you will likely retain much more information and will thus understand fully the references made by autists on message boards.

Theory: Everything in Trek that happened after this was Wesley's fever dream as his mother kept him alive but could not get him out of coma.

Yes your criticism is correct. i have gotten too the point where i use the names Will Wheaton and Wesley Crusher interchangeably. its a habit that i believe to be somewhat common. And i very rarely see Riker referred to as Will outside of the show. its usually Riker or Johnathan Frakes. Given my assessment of the type of people who browse this board, then the numbers who have read it that way would be negligible.

i love that episode

Once the writing team got its act together in the third season and quit making him a mary sue Wesley was pretty good character who just hung out with fellow autists Geordi and Data.

If they had kept him all the way through the end of the show they could have more episodes like The First Duty where Picard puts relentless pressure on Wesley because of the father/son dynamic. It could have made Generations a lot more personal if Picard was having to cope with losing Wesley and not his goddamn nephew.

What if Wesley was actually Picard's son?

…ok, but only if you promise to have Weasely die in a fire onscreen at the start of the film instead. …and not just for obvious Wil Wheaton-related reasons. I don't want to lose that (probably inadvertently) stone-cold "time is the fire…" line from the absolute madman Soran (no, not that Soran. the other one. the only non-pozzed Soran character in TNG. the one played by that actor who plays absolute madmen pretty good). Too bad he ended up as the villain in a shit film instead of a good one.

not now, doctor
