Okay, I admit, I've been Negligent about this. But, a-hey, I've been busy, and it's not easy to think up possible topics.

This week's Poll

Out of every single male and female actor that has played in every single Star Trek Episode, which is your favourite? You may name guest actors that have only appeared in one episode (like Corbin Bernsen). You may wish to use criteria like other acting talents (like Frakes voice Talent in Gargoyles).

And for the record, Tony Todd is one my favourites. Every ep he does is filled with superb acting, including Old Jake Sisko and Ma'Bor Jetrel.

Hmm....

For best regular actor, I'd have to say Brent Spiner. I just saw him on Night Court in a guest appearance, and it was kinda funny.

For best guest actor, I think I like John DeLancie. He's cool, except for the whole Mac thing.

Sheesh!

Looks like Monty beat me to it. Patrick Stewart has to get it. He had some great acting performances, but the best has to be in Chain of Command when he's being tortures by that Gul. I thought that was amazing acting.

------------------
Whenever people agree with me, I always feel I must be wrong.

Posted by Michael Dracon (Member # 4) on :

Patrick Steward is one of my first choises too.

Some others:
- Garak
- Martok
- Kira (especially in the mirror universe)

Uhh, Tony Todd didn't portray Jetrel.

That was James Sloyan.

I've always liked Tony Todd, Dwight Schultz, Jeffrey Combs, and Andrew Robinson the best. As a regular cast member, I'd say Robert Picardo.

Posted by Black Knight (Member # 134) on :

I'll have to go with Patric Stewart as well.

Altair: I thought they were called 'flight attendants' now.

Posted by TSN (Member # 31) on :

Just to prove I can spell it correctly: "Patrick Stewart".

Now, as for my actual answer... Wow. That's tough. I think I have to agree w/ Elim on Combs, Todd, Schultz, and Robinson. I think I might also have to add Marc Alaimo to the list...

OOPS!! Sorry!

Didn't see that until now... Well you do know what I mean, right

About name typos:

I saw an artikel in a local newspaper a few days ago about future technology. It had a picture of the Borg Queen and Captain Picard with a note that said: "... Alice Krige as the cybernetic Borg Queen and Robert Picardo as the holographic doctor."

BTW: Alice Krige did a fabulous Borg Queen.

It strikes me that it is much more difficult to choose the BEST actor then it is to choose the worst, but unfortunately there has already been a poll about that

Sol: I've never seen you spell Stewart correctly.

I vote for Rene Auberjonois and Nana Visitor.

Hasn't Todd been guesting on three non-consecutive (was that right?) occasions? I remember him being old Jake Sisko, then Worf's brother Kurn and then a Hirogen.

It's funny 'cuz so has Brian Thompson, my second favourite muscle-man!
I first saw him as a red-faced gamma-quad inhabitant threatening Quark, then as another klingon on Lursa and B'etor's BoP in "Generations" (COOL! They've both been Klingon's), then as a Jem 'Hadar in "To the Death". That guy's something, he even looks like he has trained his face-muscles!
I think when he got his intestants rearranged by the Terminator back in -84 he had found his role-model.
