TOS - Spock, hands down. I used to fantasize about being the human woman who would brek thru his Vulcan reserve.

TNG - Mrs. Troi

Voyager - 7 of 9

But when I saw that movie, when Olson made his first appearance, I said "dead man walking".

I thought it was kind of them to give him a name....

And between you and me, I’ve been digging the reboots, ever since Leonard Nimoy explained how everything was now “OK”

And the Kahn flip was pretty cool...

Still, Denny Crane!

I have to narrow it down by show:

TOS - Sulu (when he ran around the ship with a sword and just for George Takei's goodness)
TNG - Data (I guess. I never really got into the show much)
DS9 - Tied for 1st place: Odo and Quark. Honorable mention: Weyoun
VOY - All of them (I loved that show). But, for the sheer fun evil of her, Seska.
ENT - Dr. Phlox

I can't remember enough about the cartoon.

Both TOS and Reboot.

When I was a kid, I had no idea of how bad Koenig's accent was. As an adult, I found Yelchin's bright enthusiasm so endearing.

Also enjoyed Karl Urban's take on McCoy.

It was introduced in the Animated series, and there's a Catian Admiral in one of the Kirk-Era movies.

Played by Andrew J. Robinson. Such a likable sharp tongue psychopath. It's never dull when he is around.

I've always thought him to be one of the more consistently entertaining characters in the Star Trek universe. He and I think alike in so many ways.

actually I thought Quark was one of the most well written and acted (Armin Shimerman) characters on all of the series.

(in spite of the sprayed-on unitard).

Resistance is futile.





And I gotta admit, even though she could be a pain, I always got a kick out of Lwaxana Troi.
