Who's the best star trek Captain-the poll

[Melinda]

Janeway is beating Sisko? Oh come on!

 

[DotCommunist]

Sisko suffers from the fact that he was pretty much stuck on that dull station with it's cast of uninspiring wrinkly faced oddballs

Archer

Why do people with sci-fi roles on their CV get other scifi roles as if they have somehow graduated sci fi actors academy?

Little kid from lost in space - Babilon 5
That russian bloke from star trek - Babilon 5
That japanese bloke from star trek - heros
That other bloke with the handset from quantum leap - Batllestar Galactica
Apollo from battle star Galactica - the bad prison guy from battlestar galactica

Etc etc.

the US sci-fi actors community is hugely incestuous, thats why. See Farscape characters taking different roles in stargate etc..

its also in the hope that fans of one show will be interested in seeing the new show.

when she wasn't trying to do Hepburn

...that's exactly what was good about her, she was an intergalactic Katherine Hepburn. Though why they initially saddled her with Mrs Bridges wig from Upstairs Downstairs is anybody's guess.

She sounds like wot lizards would sound like, if they could talk.

I always saw it as more in the style of Anne of Green Gables's adoptive mother Marilla Cuthbert.

I say picard

i don't want any shakespearean-trained actor playing the Capt.

kirk all the way, at least he wasn't emasculated like picard

You mean mature / not gung-ho ?

I just checked and I'm exactly the same age as Patrick Stewart was when he first played Picard in 1987

 

[DexterTCN]

It wasn't that that really bothered me it was the crappy way the universe really didn't change over time or how they used stupid plot devices to leave the episode as it started.

Compare that to Babylon 5 or even these days with Battlestar Galactica, Lost or Heroes...

Kirk truly spread love throughout the galaxy. What more could one want from a starship captain.

He was also a slayer of gods.

100% split thusly...

Sisko :: 45%
Picard ::40%
Janeway :: 8%
Archer :: 4%
Kirk :: 3%

I don't dislike Janeway, Archer or Kirk, but they don't come close

yeah well at least Kirk has a sense of humour and always got his shirt ripped in some fight. Picard was usually to busy being serious and eating pate and caviar on toast.

if i was on some ship cruising thru the galaxy i'd much rather have J. T. Kirk at the helm
