Who is your favorite Jeffrey Combs character, and why?

I'll start (I haven't watched Enterprise much, however, so I wouldn't know much about Shran):
1. Weyoun
A combination of charm and gaslighting + he truly believes in his questionable obedience. It reminds me of systemic manipulation in real life. He carries it almost adorably as well, which is refreshing. Weyoun 6 also shows more depth. It's interesting to see the clones evolve.

2. Penk:
Another mirror of society to me, turning exploitation into a performance/pleasure. It's how I’ve often observed cruelty getting disguised. He’s also hard to dislike on top of it, which only adds to that reflection.

3. Agimus:
Parody/satire of the rogue AI archetype.

4. I also love his portrayal of Liquidator Brunt.
 
Weyoun, because he really is charming, when he wants to be. I loved him drinking the poisoned kanar in "Ties of Blood and Water".
 
Ditto about Shran. Weyoun is cunning and sedate, but Shran...he's out there, dynamic, in your face and funny. He comes to Archer's rescue on more than one occasion. His feeling of being indebted drives the subplots of episodes. And the make up, the expressive antennae...I could go on and on.

Yea, it's "Shran, for sure. :techman:"

Definitely.
 
1. Weyoun. Smarmy, amoral, sycophantic D-bags were never so much fun.

2. Shran. DS9 had Worf, VOY had Seven. ENT would have had him.

3. Tiron. Weird looking dude with a thing for Kira. But then, pretty much EVERYONE had a thing for Kira. Except Bashir, and the guy who played him had a thing for the lady who played Kira
