A quiz for fans of Star Trek:

[arcane1]

There have been 28 seasons of Star Trek in one form or another. Which *non-computer* character has appeared in more seasons than any other, and in how many did he/she/it appear?

(edited because I forgot about the computer)

[Pab Sungenis]

1. Worf.

Seven years of TNG, four of DS9.

[petronius]

2. I'm going to guess the voice of the computer - isn't it Majel Barrett?

[Denninmi]

6. That would be my guess, too?

Wasn't Majel Barrett somebody's wife? Roddenberry's? I seem to vaguely recall something along those lines, which would explain things.

[arcane1]

10. On second thought, I'm discounting the computer

Because the Enterprise's computer isn't the same character as the Voyager computer

3. Hello! Computer?

[arcane1]

8. I forgot about the computer!

4. Off the top of my head, I'd guess Q

He appeared at least once in each season of
TNG, Voyager and (I think) DS9.

[shadowrider]

5. That would be Worf, 273

[liberaltrucker]

9. OP said seasons, not episodes.

You are correct on episodes.

[shadowrider]

13. Crap. Ok, guess 17

[arcane1]

14. Nope, and nope

[Gidney N Cloyd]

7. Ensign Redshirt.

[ohiosmith]

11. Star Trek's Guy Fleegman.

[Gidney N Cloyd]

12. ...he had a last name?

[ohiosmith]

15. Guy!

[arcane1]

16. LMAO!!

[warrior1]

17. are you going to give us the answer?

[arcane1]

20. Sorry, I was out for a bit

I provided a hint

[warrior1]

18. changed my mind

I don't have a clue.

[arcane1]

19. Hint: the character's first name starts with M, and the number of seasons is 14

[RedStateLiberal]

21. My guess was also Worf

but the hint tells me it is probably Miles O'Brien?

[renegade000]

24. O'Brien makes sense

He was in all 7 seasons of DS9, Worf was only in seasons 4-7. I'm assuming O'Brien was in all of TNG as well.

[Wounded Bear]

22. Mr. Spock....

[warrior1]

23. Well then I'm going to say

Miles O'Brien.

[arcane1]

25. The Answer Is...

Chief Miles Edward O'Brien!

He appeared in every season of Star Trek TNG and DS9.

He is also the only character to appear in both the premier and finale of two series of Star Trek!

He's also one of my top 5 favorite all-time Trek characters, which is what made me think of this quiz in the first place

A toast to Chief O'Brien!

26. That was a great character and he's a great actor.

I met Colm Meaney at a convention in the early 90's. Got his autograph on a TNG trading card that I still have to this day. Nice guy. Loved him in The Commitments movie too.

[arcane1]

27. Indeed, he was able to create a character far beyond the script

I squealed with glee when I heard he was going to be a major character on the then-new DS9.

Well, not in a literal sense, but in a Fan sense

[rppper]

28. He's really good in "hell on wheels" too...

i was pleasently surprised to see him in the role...great actor all around....got to love the irish!
