Original Star Trek > Everyone and Everything

Kirk, Spock, and McKoy will run wild on you.

[huskerwebhead]

I'm a diehard Trek fan...but nobody is more of a badass than this man...

[The Question]

Everyone knows that Picard was the best Captain, and DS9 was the best series. Actually, I'd say that Picard and Kirk are tied for the best, with Sisko as a very close second.

Your talking about Sisko the Prophet, right? That's what killed that show (DS9) for me (all the religious/prohet stuff). The last episodes involving the Dominion were great and I would definately buy the complete series on DVD if it wasn't for the prophet/religious stuff.

As for the best captain, I definately chose Kirk as my captain. The other three aren't too bad either.

As for Admiral Adama, I think he's had it tougher than any of these other captains. They've had it easy compared to him.

And that's what I liked about the show.
