What was the best guest-acting role on TOS, and do you have any runner-ups? ( m.media-amazon.com )
I'm going with William Windom:

Personal notes: across all TV and media, I've rarely seen a character go from totally sympathetic, to total heel-turn villain, to total martyr like that.
In terms of ST series, maybe Dukat from DS..?
Runner-ups?
-
Mark Lenard as the Romulan commander
-
Robert Walker as "Charlie X"
-
Roger C. Carmel as "Harry Mudd"
Daggit, I know I'm forgetting some actors, here...
