[QUOTE]Originally posted by Aban Rune: [QB] Worf was only supposed to be an O'brien at first. Little more than a talking extra to add a bit of new age, we-made-peace-with-them coolness to the bridge. After all, it was hinted at that the Kligons had actually joined the Federation by season 1 of TNG (dumb idea). I don't remember alot of instances of Geordi being in Engineering during Season 1, but it was probably due to the fact that they needed someone doing dialogue, and something for Geordi to do. I doesn't seem like a whole lot mroe thought than "Hey, let's have a blind guy steering" went into his character at first, though some interesting things with his friendship with Riker were established in the pilot, not really to be touched on in the future. They did have a chief engineer during season 1... actually they went through several of them. Riker must have kept making people mad or something. They went through 1) Lady Mole Face in "The Naked Now", who apparently died as a result of complications during cosmetic surgery, 2) Commander Argyle in "Where No One Has Gone Before" who was probably relieved for having a stereotypically Scottish name, having a beard, and being fat, 3) Lt. Asshole who tried to take command from Geordi in "The Arsenal of Freedom", and 4) Leland T. Lytch, from "Skin of Evil". 3 and 4 may be the same, but I think they were different, and I may have forgotten someone. It does seem odd that such an important post wasn't cast with a regular.
