The Star Trek franchise has always been pretty progressive, but many years can be quite difficult for women who have worked on it. The creator of the Franchise Ein Born Borni and some of his students, including "Star Trek: The Next Generation" and "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine", Rick Berman, seemed to treat female characters and women who played as a candy for eyes and a little more. Although "Old Trek: The Original Series" only had the wife of Born Berie Mayel Barrett-Granbury as nurse Capella And Nickel Nichols as Colonel Uhura, "Old Trek: The Next Generation" was supposed to have a slightly greater equality, with great roles for women in adviser Deana Troy (Marina Syrtis), chief medical officer Beverly Kruser (Gates McFadden) and Tasha's Security Officer. Unfortunately, by season 2, two of these women will be gone.

In a panel in Star Trek Las Vegas in 2018 (through Screenrant), Syris revealed that her future in the show was quite uncertain after the first season, but after Tasha's Tasha was killed in Crosby, she knew she was at least a little safe.

It is really unfortunate, but Star Trek has a long history of women to be written off and fired, starting with the image of Grace Lee Whitney Allegedly Iceenis Rand has been written off Simply because her character had too much chemistry with Captain Jameseims T. Kirk (William Shatner), which would prevent him from being a degree in foreign. Syris knew in front of the panel audience he knew he was "on the bubble" to be fired and felt purely "decorative" when it was a co-star Crosby asked to be written outside the show Almost the end of season 1 (due to the frustrations of its own to be a sexual subject with little to do). When Freyks pushed back and said he was unlikely to be fired, Syris confirmed:

"Mayel (born Birthi) told me a fact. A few years later, I faced her, because we were very close (...) I told Mila years later: "Mayel, I'll go fired, won't you? "And she said," Yes, you were. (...) You need a doctor, you need it, you really don't need a psychologist.

Although she really didn't want her character to die, South was killed. Soon after, By McFaden was asked not to return for Season 2Although she was replaced by another chief medical director, Dr. Kate Pulaski (Diana Muldaur). Both McFaden and Crosby will eventually come back, but it sounds like their departure when they saved Syris from the cutting block.

It is really a shame that born Borneys allegedly wanted to get rid of the troops, simply because there were too many women on the crew, especially when one of the most important crew members of the company eventually ended up. As an adviser to the ship, she helped many of the characters to cultivate their feelings over absolutely stockers who had to face as part of being on the last limit, giving us insights into their lives that were even better than personal logs. Not only that, but also her relationship with Reeker is honestly the only really good permanent romance in the whole "next generation".

Unfortunately, another great character would face a frustrating end just a few years later on the sister Series "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine", with Terry Farrell's Col. Jada Dax commander Jada Dax instead of Having its part reduced at the end of the sixth season of the showAs she asked. Not every actor who left the franchise He did so on such a sour note, but wild is how many women split in ways with "Star Trek" for sexist reasons. Things seem to be mostly better these days, but the 20th century was certainly time.
