I think the key words here are 'cute bod' but at the same time I really
disagree-- she wasn't a bubble. She was mis-scripted a fair amount, but she
was the strongest female companion since Romana. I think she's much better,
overall, than a Leela or a Teegan (or a romana II, for that matter). Don't
shoot nyssa, shoot the scriptwriters (while you're at it, shoot them for
the way they misused Adrick, too).

Oh, you mean like Teegan??? *grin*
