I doubt the script said "Act like a pathetic, whining know-it-all."

The quality of the actor makes or breaks the character.  A good actor can
create magic, even with a crappy role.  But, a poor actor can take a good
role and ruin it.

Having said that, I also blame the scriptwriters and producers.  WHY does
damn near every show today feel the need to include a kid?  The original
Star Trek did just fine w/o one.  

I'm glad he can maintain his own website.  That proves that he also has
enough neurons to *breathe*, anyway.
