    I believe because Worf was a regular character for all of TNG and over half of DS9, not to mention Picard season 3, Michael Dorn has the most episode appearances of any Star Trek actor.

      I was going to argue Majel Barret, but this article agrees with you

      https://www.imdb.com/list/ls075838523/

      TL;DR top five:

      1. Michael Dorn: 284 episodes, 5 movies
      2. Colm Meaney: 225 episodes
      3. Majel Barret: 210 episodes, 7 movies
      4. Katherine Mulgrew: 212 episodes, 1 movie
      5. Patrick Stewart: 207 episodes, 4 movies

        5 movies

        Vs. Patrick Stewart’s 4. Weren’t there only four films with the Next Generation crew…?

        Even I forgot Michael Dorn is in Star Trek VI. You just can’t escape the Worf.

        Oh, right, because Prodigy did 20 half hour episodes per season instead of Picard’s 10 hour long episodes per season, Mulgrew was able to get ahead of Stewart.

      Majel Barrett may have given him a run for his money.

      Admittedly, she is often heard and not seen (except as Nurse Chapel and Lwaxana Troi), but the computer has got at least one line in pretty much every TNG and Voyager episode, and a good chunk of DS9. It would be an interesting turbo-nerd deep dive to see who has more episodes under their belt, but certainly not one I’m doing right now.
