    Star Trek has had many Captains in the history of the franchise, and there's
    a lot of debate about who qualifies as the best and the worst. Well, after reading a Screenrant article that infuriated me and made my blood pressure rocket to 450/300, I decided to dismantle their list, and substitute my OWN! Here is Doomcock's ranking of the best and worst Captains of Star Trek! #startrek #sciencefiction #scifi

    Should he use his real name like Robert Meyer Burnett... and then get
    canceled for having "wrong" opinions and lose everything like Robert
    Meyer Burnett?

    Who's "Robert Meyer Burnett"?? (O.K., so I've checked him out on
    DuckDuckGo!!)

    If your opinion IS what you believe, why hide from it??

    On a platform like YouTube, having the 'wrong' opinion could get
    your channel removed and if the great unwashed know who you
    really are, you could - depending on what opinions you actually
    have - find yourself having no job and no money.

    Okay, that is a drastic scenario but still... why take the
    chance?

    The deniers of free speech are everywhere so you have to fit in
    to their one-world view or else. Having a different opinion to
    someone else almost seems to be a crime these days.

    He listed Picard as worst for not destroying the Borg when he had the chance and Janeway for her incompetence, including stranding them in the Delta Quadrant.

    According to the video, he used to like Picard best, but thinks the

    Which other captains and actors have been the lead in one or more official
    Star Trek TV series? There are two in animated series - Sort of - but tbh
    Lower Decks is not captain-focused and Prodigy doesn't have an official
    captain in place to speak of ...

    Nowhere above nor in the topic title does it say "lead in Star Trek TV
    series" (I don't recall it saying it anywhere in this entire topic, but
    I may have missed it). It's only if you visit the Screen Rant website,
    as I did just now, that it specifically says that.

    Overall "Picard" was 'kind of' good. I found it a bit of a mixed
    bag. After starting off slowly - and a very dull S2 - by S3
    "Picard" was quite enjoyable. (S3 was the best season IMO.)
    Maybe having a lot of the old faces around made-up for some of
    the silly plots?

    I haven't clicked on the link but if Mr Shatner's Captain Kirk
    is not #1 on that list I am going to take my ball back and ye

    3. Cpt Edward Jellico
    4. Cpt Johnathan Archer
    5. Cpt Christopher Pike (original)

    7 Captain Jonathan Archer
    6 Captain Michael Burnham

    4 Captain Benjamin Sisko
    3 Captain James T. Kirk
    2 Captain Kathryn Janeway
    1 Captain Jean-Luc Picard

    Let's go Brandon!

    Here’s my ranking-
    1-Kirk
    2-Kirk
    3-Kirk
    4-Old Kirk
    5-Picard

    The problem with "Kirk" is that he has been played by three* different
    actors (so far), each bringing their own twist to the role to some
    degree.


    * Technically four since there was a 'young kirk' in JarJar Abrams'
    abysmal movie. There was also a body-swap storyline which had
    Sandra Smith playing Kirk trapped in a female body. Plus the
    alternate / mirror universe versions of Kirk. There have of
    course also been others playing the role in fan-fiction movies.

    I don't like those results... I demand a recount.

    I suspect there was an element of voter fraud in certain states.

    My personal favorite is Johnathan Archer. Despite being a flawed
    individual, despite his ship being woefully outclassed by anything it
    came across, he and his crew still went forth boldly where no man had
    gone before. He didn't have incomprehensible space magic to fix any
    problem, he didn't have an extensive support network of other ships and
    space stations to help, in fact there was no network, no Federation and
    no Prime Directive, he was making it up as he went along. He was the trailblazer and it was his light, flickering and feeble as it was, that
    led the way to everything else.

    Er... okay... that's certainly different anyway!

    According to the video, he used to like Picard best, but thinks the
    recent TV show "Picard" screwed it up. (I haven't seen that show yet,
    so no idea if he's correct, but probably is since all the newer stuff
    for every franchise tends to be rather abysmal and make idiotic
    changes.)

    He later said Picard allowing Hugh to return to the Collective instead of giving him the Eisher picture in order to exterminate the Borg was why.

    I liked about archer that he had to deal with all the space stuff without any guide or directives...
    And it was nice to see them slowly adapt to the "geopolitics" of space
    and i really wish they had gone with their original idea of the ship slowly being upgraded over the seasons with the last version of the ship slightly resembling the enterprise form TOS.

    In Picard's shoes, Sisko WOULD have sent the virus to the collective. EVEN if he had not been at Wolf 359. That's what 'In The Pale Moonlight.' was about: Sisko making a painful conscience shaking decision in order to save the Federation. Sisko's view on the Captains is clear: The first time he met Picard, he wanted to punch his lights out. When he met Kirk? He got his autograph. 'nuff said there.

    I'm glad to see Rachel Garret make the list. Just a few scenes and she shows exactly what it takes to be Captain of Star Fleet's Flagship. She even has molded her crew well enough that even with her gone... with most of them already dead, the survivors choose to go into a hopeless battle for a CHANCE
    to save billions of lives. Not even a guarantee... just a chance. It takes a Great Captain to mold a crew that good.

    I'm still pissed off that we never got to meet the real Lorca -
    supposedly one of the greatest captains of his time - just his Mirror
    Universe version. They didn't even bother trying to mount a rescue
    mission and wrote him off as probably dead.

    7 Captain Jonathan Archer
    6 Captain Michael Burnham
    5 Captain Christopher Pike
    4 Captain Benjamin Sisko
    3 Captain James T. Kirk
    2 Captain Kathryn Janeway
    1 Captain Jean-Luc Picard

    -
    Let's go Brandon!

    Michael Burnham doesn't belong on the list. She's a good enough actress
    I suppose, but it's not her fault her tv show sucks dick.

    That whole series doesn't count since it isn't star trek, in my eyes.

    Here's my opinion.

    6 Archer
    5 Janeway
    4 Picard
    3 Pike
    2 Sisko
    1 Kirk

    I concur.

    Kirk. Sisko. Archer. That is all.
    I never thought about the I,Borg episode like this before. You are right. He
    is a massive criminal for not ending the single greatest threat in the whole universe.

    The Enterprise is caught in some kind of time loop and they crash into Frasier’s ship and everybody dies, but then it automatically resets and
    they go through it again. They managed to get data to remember a small
    message which was enough to get him to dodge left instead of right or

    Or for that matter, Captain Edward Jellico of the USS Cairo and the USS Enterprise? He saved both the Federation and Picard without having to
    make a single compromise to the Cardassians, and he did it by outwitting
    Gul Lemec and dealing with almost the entire senior staff of the
    Enterprise pushing back against him at every turn.

    If Picard gets downgraded for that decision, then the 4th Doctor has to be downgraded as well due to his decision to not exterminate the Daleks in Genesis of the Daleks.

    I'm glad to see Rachel Garret make the list. Just a few scenes and she shows >> exactly what it takes to be Captain of Star Fleet's Flagship.

    Why does everyone involved with STAR TREK not seem to understand what a flagship is?

    Everyone from the writers to the fans seem to think a flagship is 'the best ship' or 'the most famous ship' or 'the pride of the fleet' or something similar.

    It's not anything of the kind. The flagship is the ship carrying the
    commanding flag officer (admiral) of a fleet or task force. Hence the name flagship. An admiral has a literal flag that's flown on the mast of the
    ship when he or she is aboard. It has anywhere from one to four white stars
    on a red background, depending on the admiral's rank. In the American navy,
    the flagship is usually, but not always, the aircraft carrier in the battle group. If, for some reason, the admiral ferries over to one of the
    destroyers, then that ship will hoist the admiral's flag and become the flagship.

    The Enterprise is not a flagship, except on those rare occasions when an admiral is aboard her. Like when Admiral Nechayev was on the Enterprise to
    deal with the Borg. Then it became a flagship, but only until the admiral disembarked.

    And the episode predates the movie 'Groundhog Day'.

    Here is Doomcock's ranking of the best and worst Captains of Star Trek! >>>> #startrek #sciencefiction #scifi

    https://youtu.be/Io1rb9wvEZY?si=AtIgRYK57l73Tf-J

    In Picard's shoes, Sisko WOULD have sent the virus to the collective. EVEN if
    he had not been at Wolf 359. That's what 'In The Pale Moonlight.' was about:
    Sisko making a painful conscience shaking decision in order to save the
    Federation. Sisko's view on the Captains is clear: The first time he met >>> Picard, he wanted to punch his lights out. When he met Kirk? He got his
    autograph. 'nuff said there.

    I'm glad to see Rachel Garret make the list. Just a few scenes and she shows
    exactly what it takes to be Captain of Star Fleet's Flagship.

    Why does everyone involved with STAR TREK not seem to understand what a flagship is?

    Everyone from the writers to the fans seem to think a flagship is 'the best ship' or 'the most famous ship' or 'the pride of the fleet' or something similar.

    It's not anything of the kind. The flagship is the ship carrying the commanding flag officer (admiral) of a fleet or task force. Hence the name flagship. An admiral has a literal flag that's flown on the mast of the
    ship when he or she is aboard. It has anywhere from one to four white stars on a red background, depending on the admiral's rank. In the American navy, the flagship is usually, but not always, the aircraft carrier in the battle group. If, for some reason, the admiral ferries over to one of the destroyers, then that ship will hoist the admiral's flag and become the flagship.

    The Enterprise is not a flagship, except on those rare occasions when an admiral is aboard her. Like when Admiral Nechayev was on the Enterprise to deal with the Borg. Then it became a flagship, but only until the admiral disembarked.


    The Enterprise might have been a flagship for about five minutes there at
    the beginning of TMP. I’m not sure exactly when Kirk and Deckers reductions in rank became active.

    No. That was Zephram Cochrane.

    Fraser played the captain of the spaceship that went through some sort
    of warp and ended up in Picards time and then they forgot about it
    completely.

    I Don't recall him, then!!

    The Enterprise is caught in some kind of time loop and they crash into >Frasier's ship and everybody dies, but then it automatically resets and

    Black. He’s a specialist in Vulcan medicine.
    M’Benga if I’m spelling that right.

    He appears on strange new worlds twisted beyond recognizability. In fact
    what they did to him and Nurse Chapel is the reason I quit watching that

    TOS also had the African-American doctor who was a specialist in Vulcans
    in one episode. I'm pretty sure there were mentions of others.

    There were other doctors in TNG, sometimes plot required specialists,
    sometimes just background players.

    There was African-American Dr M'Benga in "A Private Little War" and
    "That Which Survives". He's a regular now in Strange New Worlds,
    somehow looking about ten years older than he did in those original
    series episodes supposedly set several years later.

    "That Which Survives". He's a regular now in Strange New Worlds,
    somehow looking about ten years older than he did in those original

    In Picard's shoes, Sisko WOULD have sent the virus to the collective. EVEN if
    he had not been at Wolf 359. That's what 'In The Pale Moonlight.' was about:
    Sisko making a painful conscience shaking decision in order to save the
    Federation. Sisko's view on the Captains is clear: The first time he met >>> Picard, he wanted to punch his lights out. When he met Kirk? He got his
    autograph. 'nuff said there.

    I'm glad to see Rachel Garret make the list. Just a few scenes and she shows
    exactly what it takes to be Captain of Star Fleet's Flagship.

    Why does everyone involved with STAR TREK not seem to understand what a flagship is?

    Everyone from the writers to the fans seem to think a flagship is 'the best ship' or 'the most famous ship' or 'the pride of the fleet' or something similar.

    It's not anything of the kind. The flagship is the ship carrying the commanding flag officer (admiral) of a fleet or task force. Hence the name flagship. An admiral has a literal flag that's flown on the mast of the
    ship when he or she is aboard. It has anywhere from one to four white stars on a red background, depending on the admiral's rank. In the American navy, the flagship is usually, but not always, the aircraft carrier in the battle group. If, for some reason, the admiral ferries over to one of the destroyers, then that ship will hoist the admiral's flag and become the flagship.

    The Enterprise is not a flagship, except on those rare occasions when an admiral is aboard her. Like when Admiral Nechayev was on the Enterprise to deal with the Borg. Then it became a flagship, but only until the admiral disembarked.

    Admiral Hanson? (role by George Murdock)

    I Don't recall him, then!!

    The Enterprise is caught in some kind of time loop and they crash into
    Frasier's ship and everybody dies, but then it automatically resets and
    they go through it again. They managed to get data to remember a small
    message which was enough to get him to dodge left instead of right or
    whatever.

    There were other doctors in TNG, sometimes plot required specialists, sometimes just background players.

    Because they couldn't find anybody incompetent enough to serve under
    crusher.

    I distinctly remember a Japanese backup for Crusher.

    She was a nurse.



    And turned out to be a nasty piece of work

    Black. He’s a specialist in Vulcan medicine.

    Asian == Vulcan! Close enough!!

    M’Benga if I’m spelling that right.

    The characters. On strange new worlds they are both drug addled berserker assassins.



    (I'm guessing the Actor who played TOS Nurse Chapel would be getting on
    in Years (80's or 90's, maybe).

    There was African-American Dr M'Benga in "A Private Little War" and
    "That Which Survives". He's a regular now in Strange New Worlds,
    somehow looking about ten years older than he did in those original
    series episodes supposedly set several years later.

    Wasn't the doctor with Pike black? I seem to recall one before Bones.


    Only in SNW.

    In The Cage there was Phil Boyce.

    And Piper in. Where No Man Has Gone Before.

    I Don't recall him, then!!

    The Enterprise is caught in some kind of time loop and they crash into
    Frasier's ship and everybody dies, but then it automatically resets and
    they go through it again. They managed to get data to remember a small
    message which was enough to get him to dodge left instead of right or

    https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0162905/?ref_=ext_shr_lnk

    Didn't they say Fraser's ship had been colliding with the Enterprise for
    decades?


    For over 80 years or something.

    How would that even work?

    I'd definitekly switch Janeway and Archer.

    Or maybe just the same amount of time the E-D went through, after the
    Bozeman arrived and collided with that starboard nacelle. Not exactly
    sure what caused the loop. That time anomaly or the explosion or those
    two combined?
