    Both things can be correct. She felt her like her character wasn’t going to go anywhere and was just becoming the “hot blonde” character which she understandably didn’t want. That was the show-runners treating her like shit, and her feeling like she wasn’t going to become a star there.

    Given how Trek has treated women characters up to the current day, I’m not sure she was wrong.

      we have jenna mitchell in the cast of strange new worlds today and it is wonder we even know her name. is she also treated like shit by some bully? compared to that, corby got one episode centered all around her and quite an amount of screen time in the other episodes. not everything is ensamble cast, sometimes you have support characters, sometimes it takes time to develop some characters.

      she also returned when she found out grass is not greener on the other side, so i think your theory has some holes in it.

        You seem to have trouble understanding that this is 30 years ago, and a different woman. Please course correct.

              between the two of us i am pretty sure you are the one with the brain damage. trouble understanding simple written text, yet you still have the audacity to give out unsolicited advice. fuck off.

          i was mostly referring to the fact that she left the show voluntarily and then came back when she found out she did not became superstar somewhere else. which you could have read in my comment above if you bothered to read it 🤷‍♂️
