What’s the general consensus on Wesley Crusher here? Was he irredeemably horrible or just poorly written most of the time. He doesn’t bother me at all in episodes like First Duty and Coming of Age, but his good episodes are so few and far between.
Very poorly written for - especially early on.
(having said that, the writing in the first couple of seasons wasn’t great, certainly - and thankfully - improving in season 3 and beyond)
In the latter seasons I wish we’d actually seen a bit more of him, as he became a more rounded-out character and was interesting where the writers were seemingly going with him.
