Denise Crosby wanted out of her contract and I believed it upset a lot of studio executives. This was on the first season of TNG.
Since then She stared in pet Cemetery 2 I believe. After that movie, I believed she apologized and was able to do some guest spots afterward.

Dammit, Jim, she's Bing Crosby's grand-daughter, not some two-bit scream queen. She's too good to do silly weekly sci-fi shows.

She posed in Playboy, if I remember right. Was that before or after she left the show?
So she did leave, as opposed to her being booted because of contract disputes or whatever?

Glad she was let out of her contract. I hated her character. I didn't like the arrogance and know-it-all attitude that she portrayed.

Playboy then re-ran the pictures in the late 80s after she was on TNG. I think it was around the time that she quit.

I wonder what Denise Crosby is doing now? They say that hindsight is 20/20 and IMO it was not a smart move on her part to be released from her contract it didn't do her acting career any good at all.

Apparently, when they wrote the part, it was simply going to be "Woman at Bus Stop," but she added so much to the character that the director just let her run with it. "Keep the camera on Denise," he said. "This is magic."
