Venator , to Star Trek in What was the best guest-acting role on TOS, and do you have any runner-ups?

Was expecting the title to end with “, and why is it William Windon?” before I read the second half of the sentence 🤣

I haven’t seen all of them yet (half way through season 2) but right now I’d say

William Campbell

In … The Squire of Gothos … and also appeared as Klingon Captain Koloth

His acting and persona is equal parts lovable and hateable … the kind of guy you could be friends with while also wanting to stay away from as much as possible.

The other guest actor that I felt the same about was

Roger C. Carmel

In … Mudd’s Women … and later in … I, Mudd

William Campbell is my favorite, too. His characters were all so over the top.

Hey, was he one of the Q? Just never revealing himself?! Playing with this great starship captain for amusement.

Not going to state the obvious with Ricardo Montalban, but I always enjoyed William Campbell’s Trelaine. And yeah, Windom was solid as Decker. Great episode all around.

Excluding the obvious choice of Jeffrey Combs as… well anyone really, I’m rather fond of Andreas Katsulas, though I may be partial to him for his phenomenal role as G’Kar on Babylon 5.

I’m liking the new John Eaves design (for June?).

It looks like a quantum slipstream design, very close to Mark Rademaker’s Vesta-class USS Aventine but with a less elongated saucer section.

Interesting.

No way, that's the USS Burbank.

I wish there was a version of the calendar with only canon ship classes. Not a big fan of most non-canon designs.

My problem with ship designs in general, canon and not, is that they all tend to be so flat. Like… vertically speaking. Flat.

Daedalus class FTW

for a spaceship, that’s not a very efficient use of… space
