Sympathy For the Devil

Positively Trek 321: Sympathy For the Devil The Villains We Hate to Love Over the past 60 years, Star Trek has given us a huge range of villains. From the fine Corinthian tones of Ricardo Montalban’s Khan to the silky charisma of Marc Alaimo as Gul Dukat, many villains have become embedded in our memories for various reasons. And sometimes, despite our best intentions, we end up loving those villains… and maybe even having a bit of sympathy for them! In this episode of Positively Trek, hosts Barry and Dan talk about the villains we might just have a smidgen of sympathy for and why. Some of our picks may surprise you! But we also want to hear from you: who did we leave off our list that you think should be included in the category of sympathetic villains?
