Kirk all the way.

Jonathan Archer was great and it was tragic that show got cancelled so early, as Enterprise was truly excellent and only getting better.

 

Kirk is a legend - one of the great alpha male characters ever.

 

 

 

Alas, I have a soft spot in my heart for Jean Luc Picard. No, he wasn't the lady's man and all around sly fox that Kirk was, but he led with brains and heart and conscience.

Picard gets my vote. The Klingons respected the man! The Klingons!

 

Oh yeah, where's Sisko and Janeway?

 

Sisko was one badass, he's very underrated as far as Trek Captains go!

 

My favorites, in order:

 

Picard

Kirk

Sisko

Archer

Janeway

Picard is the best captain.

Dilpomat, leader, and, fighter when needed.

 

Sisko commanded a space station, right? not the same in my book.

 

Janeway just got lost, right? not a good way to get ranked best in my book.

I've just started getting into The Next Generation. The Original Series was always my favorite and was/am so attached to those characters that it was almost a year of watching TOS over and over again before I could start TNG. I was reluctant to open myself to the new characters and I've only been watching for maybe 3 weeks now but I already love Picard. He has the wisdom, elegance and sophistication of an older man and overall is a great Captain.

That being said, my vote still goes to Kirk. He will always be my favorite. Kirk tended to go quiet and internalize his thought process during times of stress, loss or difficult decision making, while Picard is more open, it seems. So I dont really think Picard was necessarily more intelligent than Kirk, they just simply have very different personalities. And Kirk had a lot of charisma and a very curious/adventurous spirit that I really enjoyed. Not to mention his sense of humor and I found his friendship with Spock (and the way he interacted with the rest of the crew in general) very endearing.

 

And I hate to be a pain in the ass, but I cant help it. Its Tiberius, not Tiberias. bolt.gif

Kirk. No way Picard bags some green chicks. Archer? You mean the guy from Quantum Leap? If so he's Kirk's little bitch.

z7shysterical.gif at the Kirk's litttle bitch line

 

Picard! he didn't have to chase his tail it came after HIM! AND it wanted to give him absolute power

 

 

anyone recall the Borg Queen? oh yeah and even if she came in pieces, put together, she wasn't too bad to look at once you get past the technoboobology
