The greatest Captain ;)

[@johnpittsii7524]

Thanks for the amazing video ❤

[@federationoutpost]

My pleasure 😊

[@Cmb351]

I like the videos like this, going into tid bits of stuff. It would be cool to get a breakdown of events that they haven’t shown on tv but could. Like on SNW showing or talking of the Republic etc

[@Cmb351]

Or what was McCoy doing during Disco era

[@federationoutpost]

Great suggestion. Ill look if that info is available anywhere :)

[@DenizenoftheAges]

I still say he was less of a cowboy than Picard 😅

[@federationoutpost]

Picards an underrated badass 😅

[@HunterRossi]

Picard was more of a stickler for rules then Picard imo

[@DefinitelyNotBender]

Same. Kirk is Yosemite Sam while Picard is Eastwood.

[@MRSYSTEM96]

Some say he was a "womaniser" but he didn't do much womanising in TOS. I think it came from a quote in The Wrath of Khan where the character Mark says "remember that flyboy you use to hang around with" (referring to Kirk)

[@federationoutpost]

Very true. I think it just comes from the fact that he is so charming :)

[@HunterRossi]

I get this is a short brief history but should have touched on his incident that gave him achieve the rank of lieutenant Kirk vs Lieutenant Finny and also the death of his son…good video overall

[@federationoutpost]

The idea behind these 101 videos is to give people that are new to tar Trek, a bit of an introduction to the character. I did not deem details like that to be necessary to get to know Kirk :) Would definitely include it in a deeper dive of course

[@HunterRossi]

@@federationoutpost fair point, but adding in details like he had a son, and arguably one of the defining moments and awesome episodes of TOS “Court Martial “ just as a 3-5 add on.

[@dr.nigelcool3771]

Come on, this guy ain't Kirk: 1:03

[@federationoutpost]

Hes certainly no Shatner. But he's doing a decent job. He's just trying to fill extremely big boots 😅

[@DefinitelyNotBender]

Picard > Kirk > all the other Captains.

[@federationoutpost]

I can never pick between the two of them... but definitely the 2 best ;)

[@DefinitelyNotBender]

@@federationoutpost for me it’s a very close competition. I just think Picard plays 5D chess but Kirk still plays 4D chess.

[@HunterRossi]

Sisko is one of my fav Captains and arguably more badass, I mean the guy went up against Q, the Breen, Cardassians, Shapeshifters, Maquis, Klingon AND jem’hadar……he always came out on top and had (dare I say) the BEST character development of any star trek captain
