How do we fans perceive the Captains? I'm sure different folks have different perceptions
Kirk
positives
Decisive, Intuitive, something of a lone wolf. Independent of thought. Fiercely loyal.
negatives
Doesn't work well with others, a little maverick, even disliked (see Court Martial). Emotionally damaged, especially when it comes to his ship. Devoted to the Enterprise, but the ship gives him no love back, hence the brief dalliances with a whatever beauty happens to glance his way.
Picard
positives
Intelligent, eloquent, has a diversity of interests. Suited to diplomacy and inclusive of his command staff.
negatives.
Not the best tactician, prediliction for conferences in crisis situations, at first glance can seem pompous, overbearing and arrogant, a little too fond of his own voice. Can be distracted by personal issues.
Sisko
positives
Strong and decisive, stalwart
negatives
Can be intimidating, has a sore spot about ethic history and civil rights issues half a millenia old, doesn't take betrayal at all well. Has a Messiah complex.
Janeway
positives
... ... ... No. Got nothing. Oh wait, has tendency to act motherly, especially towards female strays. Bloody lucky
Negatives
Indecisive, inconsistent, shrew and harridan, emasculates her command staff, continuously makes poor decisions, is a sore loser, prone to sulk. Never listens. Out of her depth.
Archer
positives
Boy scout attitude (even if it is a little out of place at his age). Up and at 'em take on things, got the boldly going thing down pat, and out of his depth but it suits him.
negatives
Tries too hard and comes off looking fake. Issues with Vulcans affect his decision making, seems easily discouraged.
Sulu
Says 'shields' a lot. Drinks tea.
Jellico
By the book, career military, his own man, dedicated, self assured, stickler for rules, although a little unaccomodating to changes.
Harriman
Comic relief
Stiles
That swagger stick is compensating for something.
Esteban
Jovial target practice.
