My problem wasn't just with Wesley. The problems with his character were problems I had with the entire first season.
TNG at the start was an excruciating utopian fantasy with little dramatic tension - where themes of moral superiority through political-correctness had the Feds lording over misguided alien species.

Wow! The female security chief can beat up male chauvinist aliens and teach them the error of their ways!
Wow! We can have a kid in the bridge who is smarter and more talented than anyone on the ship!

I suffered through the first sophomoric season and stopped following the show. I know things got better but I had already moved on.
