'''''Who is your favorite actor in all of the Star Trek movies and television series and why?'''''

Brent Spiner  [[User:dolphin20pl1|Alan Reading]]

Leonard Nimoy and Tim Russ. I think that doing a believable vulcan would be extremely difficult and these two actors have definately set the standard. -[[Federation Starships|Ken]]

JG Hertzler has long been a favorite of mine. They tend to have him play Klingons, but with that deep voice and a magnetic stage presence that comes across on camera so well, that man just floors me! He can act so well no matter how many funky teeth they stick in his mouth. Kate Mulgrew also fights for number one right along with Patrick Stewart. These three have what I refer to as 'gravity'; they draw people's attention to them. -[[herbalsheila]]

I thought Scott Bakula did a great job as Captain Archer. He played the role well. It was a different time for Starfleet, the character wouldn’t be as reserved as captains we had seen in the past. He had to be more impulsive and willing to take risks and I thought that really came through in Scott’s performance. -[[User:Jfrench|Jason French]]

Favourite? Its Avery Brooks, in "Far beyond the Stars". The scene in which he declares "I am a human being" is pure brilliance, let down (only marginally) by the out of character action afterwards by the others on screen. [[User:Nymes|Nymes]]

I love the character of Kira Nerys but my favourite actor would be a joint award to Leonard Nimoy (partly because he's a good actor but also because he's a really nice guy) and Patrick Stewart, who is a truly great actor. -[[User:Rivers|Liz Geuken]]

Michael Dorn, and Scott Bakula. Can you imagine Worf played by anyone else but Dorn? He created Worf as surely, and as deftly, as William Shatner created Captain Kirk, but the Worf’s greater depth of character and his capacity for growth far outshines the original Space Cowboy Captain. And all that in a funny forehead, as well! Along with Dorn, I’m with Jason for Scott Bakula. Dittos to Jason… Scott made me believe in Archer! -[[GrannyGM]]
