Journey's End: The Saga of Star Trek - The Next Generation

Look, all the stuff about the series itself is fine and dandy but when Rick Berman starts talking about the actors its just idiotic. One of the growths that Riker has undergone is 'he grew a beard' and then Rick has to pause for a moment to think of anything. The way he talks about Troi and Beverly is also just degrading. He introduced Beverly by saying much of the time she was 'rearing' her child and that she only later became a character because they apparently didn't think of having her on for that long. Then they begin by saying 'Troi has had ups and downs with romance' and that they thought she looked like a galactic cheerleader and changed her outfit and hairstyle a lot to fit 'what a pretty lady Marina is'. Thats all Rick has to say about the female characters, either they serve their role as a woman or as a pretty lady. Idk if its just Rick Berman (but Gene Roddenberry is also guilty of this, sorry) but if this is all they had in mind for the female characters thats just disappointing. Not surprising how abysmal the writing could be for Troi and how some episodes had Beverly and Troi often just blindly fall in love with whatever male came along and trust them blindly. While on the other hand the male characters were always written with restraint and rationality. And then you have them acting like housewives gossiping to each other about who they love while the men are again show more restraint. Besides this the documentary is just kind of a clipshow. I just thought it necessary to highlight the hypocrisy here. I love Star Trek but the way they preach utopian ideals but then stick to some really antiquated lazy ideas can be disappointing. I know its the 80s but they sometimes treat these characters like its the 60s.
