7. I didn't actually want to "have" him.
Oh wait, I'm objectifying him aren't I. We'll let him choose.

John Luke?...

2. Generally, I have three favorites.
Pickard(sp?) and Data from TNG...And then Tripp from Enterprise. God, I can't believe I just responded to this. Skip really has got me into it, something I swore would never happen.
Duckie.

26. Sort of...
He had emotions, because he wasn't a "purebred" Vulcan; and in the first series, he occasionally wrestled with them. But eventually he came to accept his emotions and deal with them in a logical fashion.

I see the character as a sort of a Vulcan Buddha...

6. I met majel barret
Edited on Fri Jul-09-04 10:46 PM by disgruntled_goat
during the run of TNG

she was most charming, even though i personally saw her interact with some people of rather limited social skill. mad props.

she was pretty in person too, exactly like on TV, which kinda surprised me.

loved Lwaxana too. sass you dead!

8. Other: Any Red Shirt obviously slated to die.
Just watched an episode of the original series where Kirk/Spock and 3 red shirts beam down to a planet. Within 5 minutes the 3 red shirts had lost all their red blood cells. It was a glorious thing.

Channel flipping I flashed by the original series again. Kirk and Spock in the transporter room. They beam 2 red shirts down to the planet. Zip. Spock checks the sensors and finds that now there IS no planet, and they just beamed the 2 red shirts into empty space and death.

I changed the channel. I mean, what else on that show do I need to watch? I've seen the best.

14. Commander Benjamin Sisko...
Avery Brooks is such a great actor, no matter what role he plays. He is one of the few ST characters that I actually cared about.

20. Shran...
Bringing his ship (alone no less) to battle in defense of earth. Risking his life and career (in some ways the harder thing) for the sake of principle and a people not his own --- the very definition of serving the greater good.

30. I HATE Wussley Crusher!!!!
Even though Wil Wheaton is a nice guy and a good liberal, I always hated his snotty little character. I always wanted Riker or Worf to beat him to a pulp!

How could you put him in this poll?
