I can’t tell you when it happened exactly, but the Spock character on TNG has stopped being Data and is now Worf. He is the most interesting, most conflicted, and, frankly, the one I care most about. I’m not going to lie to you: when the injured Worf facing dangerous experimental surgery asks Deanna Troi to look after young Alexander should he perish, I got a little choked up. Dr. Crusher and the experimental doctor argue about the ethics of medicine — with surprsining, near-BSG like conclusions. Seeing Worf in a nightgown is the real reason to watch this, though.
