Who do you think is the most talented actor or actress in the Original Series?

Well... I... Would... Have... To... Say... William.. Shatner... Very Happy

Even with his own special way of talking, William Shatner may have been the one and only true reason why there was a TNG, DS9, VOY and ENT. If it had not been for the first crew and what they did for the saga, there wouldn't be so many hours of Entertainment.

I say Khan. What is his name? Something Montalban??? Leonard Nimoy doesn't count because I'm quite sure that he actually is an alien!

I am not really convinced Nimoy CAN act. I mean, he seems to be able to stand in front of a TV camera, but that's about it. He played Spock naturally, since he was pretty much able to be himself, minus the smiling.

As for the best... That's a good question. Too often characters were underused in TOS, leaving Kirk to save the day at the end, so it's not something I have a great deal of thought to.
