Babylon 5 is the show that finally gave Walter Koenig the opportunity to demonstrate his full range of acting skills.

I love Star Trek but Chekov didn't have much depth.

I had no clue he was part of that cast. Now I will have to find a way to watch that series.

Timothy Zahn did some Star Wars books and they are good. It had more depth then Lucas can put in his morning cereal.

He was only a recurring guest star so he shows up on about 10 episodes.

Yet every appearance was worthy. He even raised the level of eps with Byron.

And THAT was no small feat.

Possibly the worst character in SF television I can recall...or rather fail to purge from my memory.



The Jedi Master

Yeah I agree with that.

While I don't think Beverly and Wesley Crusher are as bad as Byron, they're still pretty dull and lame IMHO.

Oh, and I should also add Monica Reyes from the X-Files to the list. She was just simply dull and forgettable.

There are characters that bore you and instill apathy, then are those you loathe that stir antipathy.
The Crushers and Reyes are the former, Byron is the latter.
