To me Garak, Dukat and Martok we're probably some of the best developed non main cast characters in TV.
Garak - was amazingly deep, and he played it well. There were a ton of layers to him, especially when they dove into his relationship with his father. I read an interview that he hated playing the mirror universe Garak who was a brutal thug.
Dukat - He was a really conflicted character, you wanted to hate him, but at times, you felt this incredible sympathy for him. He was pretty delusional about who he was. He saw himself as a hero who should have gotten credit for helping Bajor during the occupation. I never thought that Garak was Garak anymore after he was used by the Pah'Wraiths.
Martok - just awesome as a character. I loved the Worf wedding episode when he talked about his wife. I thought there was a bit of bad writing for him in the last episode that was out of character when he was drinking blood wine on cardassia and it made him look like a flat out war criminal.
