The late Herbert J. Wright cited producer and writer Maurice Hurley as one of the reasons he left this show. In "Captain's Logs", he described Hurley as "basically playing drinking buddies with Gene Roddenberry." According to producer Rick Berman, Hurley was the reason behind Gates McFadden's departure from this show in its second season, as he disliked her acting, and "had a bone to pick with her." After he left the show in the third season, McFadden was invited back by Berman. However, this account was later discounted by McFadden, as well as by Tracy Tormé, who revealed that Hurley had been sexually harassing her. With Paramount Pictures and the show's producers unwilling to help her, she quit, returning only when Hurley was eventually fired for not getting along with the cast and crew. Tracy Tormé, who also clashed with Hurley many times, and left this show because of that, created a character in his series Sliders (1995) named "Michael Hurley", who was characteristically a jerk and referred to by characters as "a putz on every (parallel) world." Tormé has claimed the character is based on Maurice Hurley.
