Doctors

Doctors. There is something about them, they almost always find a way into my heart. (Dude! That was NOT a pun or anything! I meant I like them. O_O )

Oh my.


Anyhow, as I was saying, there really is something about the doctor (Medic, what every you want to call 'em.) that I almost always like them.


Dr. Leonard McCoy from Star Trek.
Bones is my favorite TOS character. He always was and always will be. I always thought Spock was waaaaay overrated (and still do) and that McCoy never got enough credit for how great he was. Dude, he saves lives every day, and everyone just goes dippy over the stuck-up-green-blooded-hobgoblin. Even in Star Trek 09, McCoy is utterly amazing. (And the fact that he is played by Carl Urban really doesn't hurt any. ;) )

Spock always nagged Bones because he cared about his patients. But I think that that was what made him great.



Next to being one of the few people with any morals in the show 'Firefly' (And even then they weren't anything to write home about.), and the most awesome, I mean
AWESOME brother that ever lived, Simon Tam is an excellent doctor who must have saved the lives of every one if the 'Serenity's crew at least once.
So, aside from the stated reasons, why do I like him so much? He is probably the only person in the world who hates Jayne Cobb as much as I do. (For those of you that haven't watched 'Firefly' (And shouldn't watch Firefly) the term "Jerk" was invented be people who had to live with someone like Jayne.)

Don't let his looks fool you, Simon really is truly awesome. He gave up everything he had to save his sister and continued risking his life to keep her safe. He really is, in my mind, about every thing a brother should be.



Yeah, he is a doctor.

An Autobot doctor. Ratchet is (Well, my favorite version of him,) a lovable grouchy fellow. In the real world, 'lovable' and 'grouchy' really can not describe the same person, but for Ratchet, they can. He really doesn't like humans, but he takes good care of his comrades. For a good paragraph about him, one really should get Kae to write it. (She knows him better that I do, being a gitty-weird fan-girl. (I did get a quote from said fan-girl "He is just like... fabulous! ) Or Optimus Prime.

Prime would have honest words of high praise for his trusted and loyal medic.



Trance Gemini, from the show 'Andromeda,' has a very special place in my heart.

She was one of my childhood heroes. (And yes, she is purple. And yes, she has a tail. And yes, I was even weird as a kid.) Trance may seem to be the most naive person in the entire universe, but really, she very often knows what is going on more than anyone else. She is a very sweet and caring medic, she has a way with living thing, patients and plants and the like.

There is really to much that I could say about her.
There is always something about Trance, I really could to a whole blog post just on her.



I like Dr. Crusher pretty well. Not as much as I do the others that are here, but still pretty well. But do you know what? When you get right down to it, of all the doctors I like (that I like better that her) she is the one that I would most like to take care of me. I would feel the most comfortable around her, being a female doctor, you know. And also, if McCoy was my doctor, Spock might see me, and there would be instant mutual dislike. If Simon was my doctor, that would mean that I had somehow gotten mixed up with the crew of
Serenity, and that could only mean something disastrous had happened and or would happen. Ratchet would not be the doctor of a human. Trance, she maybe I could take, and she would probably like me (She likes people.) but her universe is a bit scary. 0_0 So it leaves Dr.Crusher.

P.S. I like McCoy (especially played by Carl Urban), but I do like Spock, too.

What about Dr. Pulaski (TNG Season 2)? Did you find her endearing?

Not overly, no.

I don't like ALL doctors, I just like an awful lot of them.

I don't care for Dr. Pulaski. I'm glad she was in only one season. Dr. Crusher was much better.
