    ^ I guess you never heard the Duke of Wellington's remark that 'One may be born in a field but it does not make one a horse.' (referring to his being born in Ireland).

    I'll give you the point on Reed though ...

    Proves my point. When Bond isn't being evil, he's too boring for me to bother listening to. :D

    Naveen Andrews, I like. He can use his British accent and play an evil captain. Enver Gjokai from Dollhouse has been incredibly versatile and engaging this whole season. He's played a war veteran with PTSD, a serial killer, a traitorus NSA mole, a scientist, a British playboy, a brainless party girl, a Russian, an Italian, and Topher.

    John Cho. I don't even mean Sulu. John Cho, as Sulu, could easily carry the lead role on a new series. Same with Zoe Saldana actually.

    Except on the holodeck on DS9--as played by one Bashir.

    Julian Bashir.

    A lot of good choices. I really liked the idea of John Cho starring in an Excelsior series. I've always thought Excelsior would've been a great idea of a TV show, and now there's a new Sulu, there's a new chance to do that, and they could keep it in the alternate universe and tie it to the new movies.

    Some other ideas, didn't see these choices, but I might've missed them:

    Jimmy Smits
    Carla Gugino (sp)
    Viola Davis
    Benjamin Bratt
    Tom Selleck
    Joe Morton
    Charles S. Dutton
    Phil Morris
    Sam O'Neill

    Sam Worthington? He's got that hard edge to him, yet still a bit of human 'caring' about him, that could work for a starship captain.

    Absolute perfect world, I'd love Liam Neeson to be a new captain. That said, I acknowledge there's less than a 0% chance that will ever happen.
