I'm a fairly new member and I am not sure if this has been done before but I was just wondering what your favorite character is from each series and WHY. This I think can be interesting and there might be some trends. It may also be cool to see if some people like characters that aren't as popular. Mine are as follows:
TOS: Spock
To me, Spock is not only the image of TOS but that of all of Trek. He was from the great first series, and to most people that I know that don't know anything about Trek the character most people consistently think of is Spock or Kirk. Nimoy's acting is incredible and his portrayal of Vulcans set the stage for everyone thereafter. The character of Spock is also very believable
TNG: Worf
In trying to make this post as professional as possible I just can't help but use the word "badass" and that is exactly what Worf is. Having him be the security officer is perfect for him. The fact that Michael Dorn made up the character's personality is amazing to me. The episodes that revolve around him are cool as well. One thing I really like about Worf in TNG is the episodes with his son Alexander. That was ingenius in my opinion because it showed that even a big, bad, tough Klingon had a soft side too that made him just like everybody else.
DS9:Quark
Ok, Worf is my favorite character to "come out" of TNG eventhough he is in DS9 but Quark debuted in DS9. To me Spock, Picard and Quark are the three most believable characters in all of Star Trek. Armin Shimerman did a beautiful job with the character. You really think that you are watching a real con man for a lack of a better term. One thing that I always liked about Quark was that eventhough he was kind of a !?%hole and was mischeivous, he really had a good heart.
Voyager: Neelix
Neelix to me is naturally funny and that is why I love him. I found myself many an episode laughing out loud because of things that he says or does. To me, he is the funniest character in all of Star Trek. He could be very funny but at the same time he could be very serious.
Enterprise: Phlox.
Another great actor in John Billingsley playing the doctor from this show. I think he is the best actor on the show. To me, Phlox is like a real doctor and that is what I like so much about him.
My favorite character of all time: Worf
Hands down the klingon is my favorite character. He was the first character I really loved and hey, I was even him for halloween one year! He is tough, personable, oh and honorable! His background is interesting and like I said before, he is a badass!
