Definitely Scott Bakula.
At the same time, I'm getting the feeling they weren't given the greatest scripts or directors to work with on Enterprise.
I was excited to see where Archer and Malcom would go with their characters, but now they've been distilled too far into an angry little men.
I get the reasoning, but come on. Malcom's a complete wanker past season 3, and Archer's face never changes beyond "It's all about the mission!"
Conversely, I believe Robert Picardo nails his hammy characterization of The Doctor perfectly.
I love the fact that even still with shows like Prodigy or Academy, he’s still willing to show up with that trademark EMH snark
