Who was your favorite Star Trek captain?

[JTG of the PRB]

Poll question: Who was your favorite Star Trek captain?

Because I'm in a dorkish mood today, and I'm just continuing the whole Star Trek theme from much of the day today.

So who's YOUR captain?

[ruiner4u]

1. Janeway!!!

cause im a voyager geek...

[JTG of the PRB]

2. Nothing wrong with that!

She was a pretty damn good captain.

[From The Ashes]

3. another vote for Janeway...

:thumbsup: If you're a geek, so am I. :D

[JTG of the PRB]

4. Technically, I consider myself a dork.

But it's all pretty much the same! :hi:

[From The Ashes]

9. Dork, geek...

...it's all good! :hi:

[opiate69]

5. Sisko.. because..

he basically ran a huge port-town.. complete with all the unsavory characters/sailors that come with it.. and ran it well.

[JTG of the PRB]

6. He was also one hell of a badass.

You didn't want to mess with him, because he'd take you down. He even punched Q right in his smug little face!

[Kutjara]

8. I just couldn't get past Avery Brooks' "James Earl Jones lite" style of acting.

He was waaaay to hammy for me.

[opiate69]

12. well yeah, but...

I kinda think "hammy" is in the character description for all Star Trek captains!
:shrug:

[Kutjara]

13. That's certainly true...

...but I was just waiting for him to forget where he was and say "I'm your father, Luke."

[opiate69]

16. LOL! True, true

[Richard Steele]

10. Yup. He was my fave; Janeway a close second. James Tiberius WHO, now???

Doesn't ring a bell. :shrug:

[Ariana Celeste]

32. Another vote for Sisko

He ran it damn well, and took care of a good kid, too.


On edit: Janeway runs a close second for me. I love her attitude and compassion for her crew.

[Reciprocity]

7. Old school here, James Tiberius Kirk.

[Kutjara]

11. Jonathan Archer. The first and the best!

All those other guys/gals were wannabes! The guy laid the foundations of the Federation, fer chrissakes!

[Book Lover]

14. I find it impossible to vote ... however

I thank you for your completeness!

Aw heck, I just voted for Spock. Captain, my captain!

[JTG of the PRB]

15. I tried my best to be complete in the list!

I believe Spock was the only major commanding officer in the Star Trek series who actually gave his life to save the crew of his ship. There's talk about the captain going down with the ship and all that, but Spock actually died to save the Enterprise!

I'm not saying he's like Jesus; I'm just saying, I might follow him if he started a religion.

[Book Lover]

18. I bawled like a baby in the theater...

[DarkTirade]

27. That sounds... logical.

[Va Lefty]

17. Patrick Stewart will always be Sejanus to me

[Orsino]

28. He's wearing Shatner's rug there, isn't he? n/t

[Hissyspit]

29. It's alive! An ectoparasite that takes over the conciousness of its host.

In return they get an unwarranted successful Hollywood career.

This one apparently jumped from Shatner to Stewart and then back to Shatner again.

(Or maybe it is an epiparasite - a parasite that feeds on another parasite.)

[Pacifist Patriot]

19. Picard. It's an accent thing.

[ThoughtCriminal]

20. Left out John Harriman

Commanding the Enterprise-B and played by Alan Ruck.

If you ever wanted to know what Cammeron did when he grew up...

[JTG of the PRB]

21. I was going to put him in...

...but he never really did anything great - at least that we saw in Star Trek. He tried to go down to engineering to save the Enterprise B, but Kirk stopped him because his place "is on the bridge." Also, he probably would have failed and everybody would have died anyway.

[Clintonista2]

22. Janeway 100%

She has done more than any other captain on that list. I would say even more than Kirk/Picard combined.

[DarkTirade]

23. Sulu all the way.

Just something about that sexy sexy voice.

[Orsino]

24. Kirk may have to be disqualified.

He is an elemental force of pure hamminess. I'm sure that if you put Picard, Sisko, Janeway and Archer aboard a trans-warp vessel and sent them to the edge of the universe, they would find Kirk's initials carved there. When Creation dies its long, slow heath death, or collapses into a Big Crunch, whatever puff of smoke is emitted will, just for a moment, swirl into a portrait of Kirk. Hell, if the galaxy were threatened by the Big Crunch, Kirk would save the day by punching the Crunch in the face.

He was much more than a captain. I like the others better as commanding officers, but he has something that none of the others do.

[Hugin]

26. Well.... said.... my friend.

:thumbsup:

[Snarkturian Clone]

25. Sisko

even if avery brooks is a crummy actor.

"why would the romulans want to destroy the flaxian's... ...ship?"

"Jake-o, look at these... ...symbols"

"Heyheyhey I thought you were unpacking"

[judaspriestess]

30. Archer - cause I'm an Enterprise geek

teehee :)

[Bucky]

31. No one's voting for Bernie Casey?

I'm sure as hell not. There is only one. There is only Kirk.
