Possibly. I think Wesley doesn't deserve all the hate that gets dumped on him. He improved a lot when his mother left the ship for season 2, and by all accounts she realizes he's become a man in her absence and doesn't cling to him like a drowning woman clings to the last straw. Her overprotectiveness is part of why he's so annoying at first.

However, my favorite character's Riker, because he's the man Kirk wished he was. Worf gets a nod as the cuddly Klingon and Data's so sweet in his attempts to understand humanity. And Picard is the most awesome Trek captain ever! Not that I have anything against LaForge or Doctors Crusher and Pulaski either, or counselor Troi for that matter.
