Walter once said that Bester was his favorite role because of just how different it was than Chekov.  He did great work with both roles.

It amazed me when I found out he'd only been in 12 episodes of Babylon 5. Felt like he was the main villain.

Same thing with Clark.  He was only in a couple episodes despite being one of the main villains for a good part of the seasons.
