Make it so number one! Patrick Stewart to reprise role and return to Star Trek.

Why doesn't Patrick Stewart age? He could still easily pass as 55 or 75.

The reason:

Regardless of his Shakespearean acting skills, Mr. Stewart will never achieve the sheer badassery of the one and only Capt. James T. Kirk. Plus, William Shatner loves this country and spent most of his life here, Stewart has nothing but upper-class-British-snob complaints about it, even though America has made him richer and more famous than his native England ever could.
Shatner is Canadian.

And the most badass captain is Janeway.





She was weak. Picard was great, and Kirk is the standard by which all other Captains are measured.
I HATED her at first but grew to love the role she played. Especially the role where she welcomed 7 of 9! Meow!




Seven saved that series IMO. Jeri Ryan is one of the more underrated actors and she was superb in the role. I hated how janeway would make these imbecilic decisions and then magically it would all work out. Like I said, I thought she was the weakest of the Captains. Yes, she had a few good scenes (thanks to Mulgrew who is an outstanding actor in her own right) but I always felt the writing for her character was overall poor.
 
The one with Scott? as a captain was my least favorite.
Scott Bakula. Enterprise. I wasn’t fond of it originally, but re-watching it on Netflix has changed my mind. It’s really good. Plus the hottest woman on any of the series:

How about if we settle all our Star Trek little detail differences by listening to and enjoying the ultimate, room-shaking Star Trek musical anthem. Full of crashing drums and giant horns that make you want to jump into the screen and be part of the adventure yourself.

One of her most badass episodes, and there are a lot, is Equinox, Part 2. John Savage is another starfleet captain caught in the Delta Quadrant. Janeway relieves Chakotay of duty, threatens Tuvok with the same, and leaves one of Savage’s crew alone in a room with the alien trying to kill them to make him talk.

Brutal.

actually, i thought that was an awful episode (not that there are any good Voyager episodes) because she acted completely out of character.

It also had the biggest problem I had with Voyager. Everything was forgotten by next week's episode!!! This episode should have changed Chakotay and Janeway's relationship. It didn't, they were back to same old same old the next week.

Heck, even the five crewmen from Equinox who were busted down to private (or whatever the Star Fleet equivalent is) and added to Voyager's crew were never heard from again.

Of course, Voyager is a gem compared to Enterprise.

I worshiped the ground Seven of Nine walked on! She, Captain Janeway and the Doctor were obviously the three strongest actors in the series, so I loved it when it became the "Doctor and Seven" show. Both characters gave the show so much more depth than it had before, I think. Seven was more than eye-candy, she had some serious acting chops to go along with her.

Well, I agree with you on Janeway, but frankly, Jeri Ryan is overrated as an actress, which is why she has done little else since then.

Also, they pretty much turned it into "The Seven of Nine Show" after Season 4.

Facts in evidence say otherwise. This is her filmography SINCE Star Trek. The only time she ain't workin is when she doesn't want to be...

She was prominent on Boston Public.

Unpopular take: Neelix is the most underrated character in the Star Trek universe.
 
Regardless of his Shakespearean acting skills, Mr. Stewart will never achieve the sheer badassery of the one and only Capt. James T. Kirk. Plus, William Shatner loves this country and spent most of his life here, Stewart has nothing but upper-class-British-snob complaints about it, even though America has made him richer and more famous than his native England ever could.
Shatner can neither act, nor sing.

Can't disagree but I love his portrayal of a starship captain. Kirk will always be the real number one but those days are long gone sadly. Much like a lot of my favorite rock and roll bands. Washed up with little skill left now but a force to be reckoned with in their day.
In my older age I find TNG to be too talkative and gutless.
I haven't watched an episode of it in at least a decade. Thinking about watching it now but not sure where to find it.
