So which ST character do you think had the best voice?

Kilana doesn't like the idea, but you do and I do, so they should have had udo as odo :techman:

? What was wrong with Odo's voice, may one ask?
Dunno, haven't listened to many of the dubs :p

Just figured a guy named Udo would be a nice fit for voicing a guy named Odo... ;)

Also, am I the only one who's noticed how certain of Spock's and Uhura's words sound British, but not all of them?
Never noticed that about Nichelle Nichols, but Nimoy did say he started off giving Spock a slightly British edge to his voice, which you can definitely hear in the two pilots. Beyond that, well, he was a Bostonian...

Indeed! In I Am Spock, Nimoy says he was asked to create an accent like Somerset Maugham's. He wasn't comfortable with the full-on version of it, but the British A's stuck with him all through TOS (and I'd presume elsewhere as well, but I didn't make it through any of the movies to confirm that). Some time ago, I had the occasion to watch the first of Nimoy's "In Search Of" documentaries, and his voice was Spock's all over again, complete with the A's. Interesting. Or should I say fascinating? ;)
