Favorite Star Trek (including the spinoffs) Character
Apr 1st, 2025 at 1:40pm
 
    Who's your favorite.  For obvious reasons T'Pol and Seven of Nine get honorable mention.  Who ever designed Seven of Nine's uniform deserves a medal.  Also both of the Dax symbionts, Jadzia and Ezri aren't chopped liver.  Data is way cool in his own way and Spock is Spock.  Lwaxana Troi is hilarious.  There are many great characters to choose from. 
   My favorite is Worf.  He takes over every scene he's in.  When he joined the Deep Space Nine crew the show suddenly became twice as good.  Worf is a total bad arse.

I can't disagree with anything you said.  I remember hearing (or maybe read it) an interview with Roddenberry.  He brought Worf in as a character because the Klingons were such bad guys for the original crew, he wanted to show that they weren't all bad.

For favorite, I'd probably say Riker, with Data as a close second.  TNG was the one that I watched the most growing up.  I watched the original series and liked it, and all the other shows I caught some of, but TNG was the one that I watched like crazy.

I am still mulling.

I've only really seen TNG. Data is my favourite, always seems episodes focused on him are very good.

Voyager, Deep Space Nine, and Enterprise are every bit as good  IMO. They're well worth a look.

Weird but ask me to make a decision on a project costing millions and your answer is very rapid.
Ask me a question like this and it takes me ages to work out.

Today , I worked it out.

Will do, we have two episodes left of TNG. Taken us years to get through it!

They're all long series which is great.  I repeatedly watch them in order... the original, Next Generation, Voyager, Deep Space Nine, then Enterprise.  It takes a few years.  Then I go back and start it over again.

If I had to pick a favorite show it'd be really hard. I like them all for different reasons.

My favorite characters from the main crew:

Captain: Jean-Luc Picard /second favorite: Kathryn Janeway
First officer: Spock/second favorite:William Thomas Riker
Doctor: Julian Bashir/second favorite: Leonard McCoy
Engineer: B'Elanna Torres/Second favorite: Montgomery Scott
Communications officer: Uhura
Helm: Hikaru Sulu
Navigator: Pavel Chekov

I only saw the pilot of Enterprise, but I liked T'Pol and Captain Archer.
