Kirk's character creates more action. He is a shoot first and ask questions later (or sleep with the blue lady and ask questions later) type of guy. Picard always needs to talk things over before starting a shootout. In real life this is probably better, but it doesn't make for good TV.

No way, Jean Luc Picard is much better!

Kirk has his moments (and gets Spock as his #1), but Picard never makes me wince and roll my eyes at a hammy delivery or grabbing-women-by-the-shoulders moment, so he gets my vote.

It's probably because this is the series I grew up with. I never watched much TOS.

TOO FUNNY
Klingon
Klingons (Klingon: tlhIngan, ) are a fictional warrior race in the Star Trek universe. They are recurring villains in the 1960s television show Category: Star Trek: The Original Series - , and have appeared in all five spin-off series and seven feature films. Initially intended to be swarthy antagonists for the crew of the USS Enterprise, the Klingons ended up a close ally of humanity and the United Federation of Planets in later television series.
As originally developed by screenwriter Gene L. Coon, Klingons were darkly colored humanoids with little honor, intended as an allegory to the then-current Cold War tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union. With a greatly expanded budget for makeup and effects, the Klingons were completely redesigned in Category: Star Trek: The Motion Picture - (1979), gaining ridged foreheads that created a continuity error not explained by canon until 2005. In later films and the spin-off series Category: Star Trek: The Next Generation - , the militaristic traits of the Klingons were bolstered by an increased sense of honor and strict warrior code.
Among the elements created for the revised Klingons was a complete language, developed by Marc Okrand off gibberish suggested by actor James Doohan. Since its appearance, Klingon became the first fictional language to break into popular culture; the works of William Shakespeare and even the Bible have been translated into the guttural language. Several tutorials and dictionaries have been published and according to Guinness World Records, Klingon is the most popular fictional language by number of speakers.

Spock is a character in the fictional Star Trek media franchise. First portrayed by Leonard Nimoy in the Category: Star Trek - : The Original Series|original Star Trek series, Spock also appears in the Category: Star Trek - : The Animated Series|animated Star Trek series, two episodes of Category: Star Trek: The Next Generation - , seven of the Star Trek feature films, and numerous Star Trek books, comics, and video games.
