OP never watched TOS.



Want to take a bet on that? Would you like for me to cite the instances when Spock was the man behind the curtain for Scotty's miracles? I watched TOS in it's original run on TV when we had Antena's mounted to the house

Nerd fact: "The Poor Admiral's dog" was Archer's dog Porthos. At that time of the incident he was an admiral and a former two term president of The Federation.

I'd pick Trip like someone else mentioned. He was smart, tough as nails and got more out of that ship than was thought possible. On top of that he goes out in a blaze of glory when the Alien's boarded the ship in the final episode. He could have escaped easily but chose to taken captive so he lure them into a trap and blew them to kingdom come.

Also..he got to tap T'Pol.

Geordi's visor led to the Enterprise-D being destroyed.

Give me Trip from Enterpise. He took an underpowered engine that was supposed to be going for a test ride and kept it going for years, long enough to save humanity from time travelers and a hidden alien menace.


Don’t forget the balls in pulling a stunt like restarting a warp engine.....while at warp.
