Best scifi villians from TV series?

Of all the many scifi TV series, which is the one villian that has always stood out?

To me, I have to say The Daleks. They have always been my favorite villains.

What version of Megatron? Generation 1? If G1, the comic version or cartoon version?

Sleestaks!

Does Venger from "Dungeons & Dragons" count? It was a cartoon, and more fantasy than sci-fi.

Reavers from Firefly.

Just the idea of them from the series and the hints they dropped. I don't like their origin story from the movie, though. It ruined the mystery for me.

Or that piece of space cheese that nearly destroyed Voyager (you think I'm kidding?)

Not sure if a MOTW would count as a villain but X-files had a ton of great ones. One of the most memorable:

Definitely Farscape's Scorpious and Early Star Trek Borg (Not Voyager).
