The last ep for Denise Crosby as a regular; Tasha Yar is killed off and stays dead. The actress wanted out of her contract, so they went for shock value and killed her quickly. A lot of people did not like pic.twitter.com/LVmJZFSWm1

Yar's death, but I thought it worked dramatically. The rest of the episode is meh (cuz Armas is meh) until we get to the memorial service at the end which I quite liked. Some good stuff by Troi, though. pic.twitter.com/jRtAyNGnVh
