I forgive him!

I liked him in Mission Impossible (the TV series - not the bottom-water films.)

Many fond memories of both Mission Impossible and Star Trek. He certainly had a good innings.

Star Trek was my first introduction to Sci-Fi back in the '60's as a young kid. 

Spock and Scotty were my favorite characters.  Spock was the steadfast logical character who could adapt science to solve a situation and poor Scotty was the poor engineer who always had to perform a miracle with the engines or other hardware.  They made many of us see space as just 'another frontier' undoubtedly as humans in the past have envisioned the vast seas and oceans of the world.
