Agreed, although like the Cynic, I think his shtick started to wear thin in the later seasons. The writers knew what a great thing they had with Picardo, and that naturally led to overuse, just as it did with Jeri Ryan. When something like "Virtuoso" is taking up space that other characters could use, you've got a problem.

(Btw, they didn't start phasing out Mark I EMHs until after First Contact. The Mark II was still only a prototype a year later.)

That was kind of a group effort, but evay got the episode, so she's up next.

That's gotta be Tom Paris, but I can't think of a time he would've been asked to do that. Hmm... let's try "Dark Frontier" and "Live Fast and Prosper".

Right character, wrong episode. I'll give you a hint if you want one.

Might be a good idea, yeah.

In keeping with our previous discussion, it was a Doc-heavy episode. And I'll even tell you it was S5.

Let's try "Latent Image" and "Bliss", then.
