Who was your favorite Star Trek engineer?

[fonzob1]

5. B’Elanna Torres - She was way too temperamental

4. Miles O’Brien - Boring

3. Geordi La Forge - Boring

2. Charles “Tripp” Tucker - A likeable character. His death was pointless

1. Montgomery Scott - classic "miracle worker"

O'Brien was close but Scotty wins it for me.

And for a more extensive popular choice poll:
Who's your favorite engineers?

 

[BillJ]

Montgomery Scott.

 

[BigJake]

Sure you don't need a thread for "favorite Star Trek janitor"? (I picked O'Brien.)

 

[bbjeg]

^Boothby would win, of course.

 

[Bad Thoughts]

O'Brien as best janitor? I'd pick Rom.

 

[Gojira]

I don't think I can choose. TOS and TNG are my favorite shows so either Scottie or Geordi and it depends on which show I am watching.

I am working on that one. Favorite Captain has been overdone, but these not so much...

Gotcha. How many infractions until you get booted?

 

[Lucky]

I have to go with Trip Tucker.

A fair number, but it's not worth tempting fate.

Scotty.

Damn, I didn't know Trip died.

I know the show has been off the air for almost 10 years, but I'm currently watching the franchise and watching DS9, VOY, and ENT for the first time, so I wish there had been a spoiler warning.

Oops! Sorry about that! You will probably be disappointed at how he dies. He was a great character, and it was very poorly done.

 

[Push The Button]

I liked them all, with the exception of B'Elanna. She was a good engineer, but an annoying character.

 

[kirkfan]

Scott and O'Brien in a tie.

Then Trip


Then the rest in a tie.

 

[brandnewfan]

I'm the only vote for Geordi

 

[Isolinear]

Scotty or the Chief. Scotty it is then.

Geordi is just another guy who happens to be blind. Trip is just another guy who happens to have a southern accent. And B'Elanna... is a volatile emotional wreck.

 

[maneth]

Geordi's my favorite, with Trip a close second.
