Who do you think is the best or who is your favourite actor (including their whole careers) to play regular parts on Star Trek?


Obviously, Shatner doesn't count, cause he defined cool and his name sounds like he pooped himself in the past.


Go!

DeForest Kelly, Levar Burton, Robert Picardo, Kate Mulgrew, Patrick Stewart. They all have had varies careers which involve music, stage, movies and TV.

Leonard Nimoy and Patrick Stewart.

Mind you Patrick would best if he ever plays Mr Freeze in the Batman franchise.

Patrick Stewart hands down/

since shatners name cant be mentioned,Nimoy and Kelly for sure.Kirk spock and mccoy were like the best trio in ANY tv show.They had a magical chemisty unlike anything else in any other show.

Brent Spiner. C'mon. Data was the shit. Also, I might add, he played a memorable redneck idiot on the ever classic series Night Court.

Stewart. He's probably done more different parts outside of Star Trek than anyone else -- and done them well.

Spiner. Even just in TNG, he ran the gamut of different personalities.

As far as quality of acting I'd say Stewart and Spiner. Also, I liked John Anderson as Kevin Uxbridge/The Douwd in the season 3 episode "The Survivors". That was a great episode.

Shatner can be mentioned. I was just making a joke about his name...and I guess a slight reference to a Family Guy Episode.

Johnathan Frakes is a surprisingly underrated actor. IMO, he's one of the best actors on Star Trek.

I haven't seen Frakes in anything else but Star Trek.

He made an excellent first officer. Michael Dorn payed Worf real well









Remember that horrible Thunderbirds remake, Frakes directed that..

Leonard Nimoy is pretty good.

The original cast for me were the best.

But Patrick Stewart did a excellent job as Picard.

Deforest Kelly

He hosted "Beyond Belief: Fact or Fiction". I liked that show.

That was a great show.

obviously stewart is one of the best, but i thin avery brooks (sisko) is very underrated...

Avery Brooks is a great actor. So is the actor that played Bashir.

ashley judd was in a few next gen episodes if i remember correctly...as a brief love interest of wesley crusher's

It is season 5, ep 6. Ashley Judd was also in Darmok which was season 5, ep 2.



I so enjoyed John de Lancie as Q. And pre Jean Grey , the gorgeous Fanke Jannsen in The Perfect Mate

they did alright for women in tng, dang...

and yeah, q was awesome...

one person i think should be mentioned is andrew robinson as garak... yes, he's subtle, but he is incredible at times, stealing scenes...

I loved Garak. He was a great character. Andrew Robinson played him very very well

Rene Auberjonois----Odo

I think he was a great character, he is also a fine actor i.m.o

Stewart hands down was and is the best actor to ever act on any Star Trek.

Patrick Stewart most likely but I got to give a big thumbs up to Colm Meaney as well...Hes the workhorse of star trek and has had a good career outside of the trek series as well. His character is probably my favorite overall...

Christopher ****ing Lloyd. Good actor and played the best Klingon ever, Commander Kruge.

Patrick Stewart.

Jeffrey Combs ... I like every character he plays, especially Shran.

Leonard Nimoy is pretty good.

Capt. Jean-Luc Picard rocked

too many choices... too many choices...

this is true

Persis Khambatta; naw?Can't pick Shatner? I'd have to say Leonard Nimoy then; it's only logical; that was a great death scene in Wrath of Khan...

Leonard Nimoy, Deforest Kelley, and Kate Mulgrew.

Kate Mulgrew as Janeway was my favorite.

Brent Spiner is the man. He done all the stuff, different kind of act like no one did in the movie. He do some crazy things like sing and dance. Truly, Brent is the best most versatile actor ever.

Just in TNG: Brent Spiner, Dwight Schultz as Barclay, John DeLancie as Q.

Honourable mentions: Jonathan Frakes and Patrick Stewart.

He also released a good country and western album.
