With that said, part of the reason Jean-Luc is so great is largely due to the phenomenal gravitas Patrick Stewart brings to the role, which will surely be on display once more when his series arrives on CBS All Access.
Now, perhaps Picard’s spot at number 1 is a bit polarizing, especially considering his character may drastically change in the upcoming Star Trek: Picard.
With him involved, Picard’s legacy should be well enough intact regardless of what’s happened to him.
