"Season 7 Episode 16 'Thine Own Self.' I loved the fact that she put on her uniform in Season 6 Episode 10 'Chain of Command,' but seeing her actually allowed to progress as a Starfleet officer was great. Frankly, I think this moment should have come at the beginning of the show." — Robert Ehrich Dietrich

"I think my best moment is in Nemesis.... I love the part when she helps 'find' the Scimitar. She says to her Shinzon's viceroy, 'Remember me!' I saw a new side of Troi; I never saw before. Don't mess with Deanna Troi." — Christopher Oliver

"Loved when she learned about her sister who died." — Mary O'Sullivan

"When she realizes in the Command Test Simulation she must order Geordi to repair a component to save the ship but that the order to do so means his death." — Todd Baggarly

"Any moment with Deanna is a good moment." — Matthias Schorer

"When she finds out the position of the Scimitar." — Petar Jovandic

"I loved her wedding." — Dianna Bird
