Q, definitely. Although I'd have to give a dishonorable mention to Wesley Crusher, Neelix, and Janeway. What pissed me off about Janeway is that she had too many morals. Now, I'm not against doing the right thing, but it seemed that she constantly failed her duty to her crew by needlessly endangering them.
Neelix was just annoying, same with Wesley. But Q still takes the cake. I didn't like any of the episodes he was in.
This is off-topic, but my friend used to read this magazine called Toyfare (a action-figure , 'dolls' if you will, becket). He didn't collect action-figure, but the magazine was really funny. They would pose all the action-figures into different scenes and stuff and add bubbles over the pictures to make them say things. Like a comic. They would do single pictures throughout the magazine, but they did and actual comic strip in the middle. Ok ... here's the revelent part.
One comic strip had a bunch of action-figures at a backyard BBQ that the Spiderman figure was holding and he gets a knock at the door. It's a group of Borg. They spew the 'resistence is futile' stuff, only it's spinned a little towards them taking over the BBQ as a joke. I can't remember the words, but half-way through the speech Spidey slams the door on then and starts to walk away. There's another knock. It's them again, so he slams the door again. This time the Borg puts his foot in the door to stop it from slamming and says "We have adapted to your methods". I thought that was so hilarious. It was a little more funny to read the comic than my entire explanation, but it was funny.
crap, you know, i liked voyager, yet now that i think about it, there were AT LEAST three characters i couldn't stand on that show:
Kes - oooh, let me be overly dramatic in every one of my lines and intonation, and act like i am wise beyond my years when i'm only technically 3 years old. uh-huh.
Neelix - look, all i saw in neelix was the guy from the 80's comedy "benson" with too much makeup and a mullet that made me cringe.
Lt. Tom Parris - speaking of poor line-delivery, could anyone read a script WORSE than this guy?
chacotay got on my nerves, but not because of the person playing, it was how he was written, practically as the "apache chief" of the final frontier ("mmmm... ancient bear spirit tale speak of great winged eagle attacking swan. this must be why borg attack voyager. must go on spirit quest in sick bay while crew get chopped up into bite-size morsels... elec-CHOK!").
you guys just have unresolved issues with your moms... that's why you hate janeway.
from TNG, marina sirtis (aka "deanna troi"), without question -- troi: "captain, i sense they are angry and hiding something." and what was worse is how labored it was for her to act this character. ugh. picard: "really, bitch?!? is that why they cut off communications and opened fire? report to airlock 7!")
wesley was bad, but he soon got written out of saving the enterprise every three episodes.
interestign that no one has brought up riker, the inventor of the 30,000 mile-high club. you could just sense when he was mad that he couldn't hook up with every living creature they encountered.
on ds9, dax and dr. bashir just bored me to tears. one was all gimmick, and the other had no personality. otherwise, the cast seemed solid.
on the original series, seemed like everyone just fit (i guess that's why it's the one all others have been compared to), though you have to admit, what exactly was chekov's purpose on the bridge, other than to say "kiptin!... the planet... is gone...!"
enterprise - the theme, i hate to say, has grown on me (*ducks*), but the cast hasn't. no one seems to have ANY edge to them, except t'pol, and she's also got nice firm, uh, logic to back that up.

yes, yes, and yes! you put it more eloquently than i usually do. most useless character of any series, but most annoying...i dunno. there are so many to pick from in voyager alone.

I didn't like Janeway because of the double-standard she set for the crew sometimes. Sometimes she would meddle beyond belief, but when crew members would meddle then she would bitch to all hell at them. Sorta like Archer seems to have started doing in Enterprise. He yells at Trip for educating that 3rd gender and says "it's not our place to impose beliefs on to another culture", but then he frees those aliens from the internment camp because it's "not right to hold them here just because they 'might' be suliban". I also didn't like that bun she had her hair in. Ugh. Kirk had a good haircut ... and well, Picard didn't need one... Oh, and I think that Voyager butchered Q ... he was my favorite character in TNG. Maybe I'm just jealous that Q wanted Janeway and not me to have his child. ;-)

God it sounds like George W Bush has been lifting his ideas about how to " rool the wurld " from Cap'n Archie..
Sounds a bit like Guantanamo bay & Eye-Rark rolled into one episode...
On another note, I think there are two reasons why Neelix gets fingered.
The ultimate annoying character is weshley crusher followed very closely by that bloke that keeps appearing as different aliens, you know the one, he was the romulan captain defector who commited suicide, friggin bloke must of had shares in it. Oh and then theres major kira.

I just saw the Tin-man episode tonight. I forgot how much I liked that one too.
Q was awesome
However the scripts with Q in Voyager were a travesty
Neelix was just annoying, same with Wesley. But Q still takes the cake. I didn't like any of the episodes he was in.

TWO...His suit looks like ironed on Vomit.

I SO wanted them to do a comedic episode where Worf got a mohawk and kept calling Barclay "Foo!"
it's stupid little stuff like this that amuses me.
can't nominate the whole show?
fine, then i nominate:
Rick "Trek-franchise-killer" Berman.
