No, the girl in the Lazarus episode is black. But I know who you're talking about, and yes...that one WAS sweet on the eyes.
I wonder what Brown thought when (if?) he read that Trek/Here Come The Brides crossover novel.
What crossover novel?!?!? I *must* know more (lot of Here Come The Brides played on Seattle TV in the 60's! ...wonder why that is? *grin*)

Gentlemen, if we are going to turn this into a loop about sexy women on Star Trek, I fear I have no choice but to participate. Mwahaha. And let me ask you if you had some question about whether you thought you were getting fat in your midsection when Dr Helen Noel began her journey through the air vent. And for good measure did Kelinda's costumer have us in mind as young men? Would you "meditate with Plasus' daughter, or perhaps build an android to "protect" you? I think you know, but in case there is a woman wandering here on TREK TOS BBS, please be discreet. Now please stick to episode plot synopsis, and enough dalliance. A smile perhaps? Just us.
EEE, the novel in question is called Ishmael by Barbara Hambly. Check it out if you're interested, and share your thoughts in the Trek Lit forum.
I like TAF. It's not the strongest of the series, and the whole galaxy/universe being aware that it blinked out for a little while makes no sense, but the meat of the story is interesting. I like the interdimensional corridor effect and the overall strangeness of the episode.

Not even Dr. Helen Noel...naked...in stirrups on a gyno examination table could have saved "The Alternative Factor."
THAT'S how uber-lame it is.

That title is really familiar. Just looked it up in my handy-dandy Star Trek Fiction Companion, and it's less familiar. I read so many of the early books, I now shy away from them as I don't remember what I have read and have not read... and the most irritating reading experience for me is to get halfway through a book and then remember reading it previously. *grin* Did it have Jason Bolt & Aaron Stemple? (the fiction companion doesn't say much except for the 1867 Seattle setting)

What a sexy image. Thank you. I have just made a donation to the "bank" based solely on the stirrings aroused by that image. Let me counter in my humble way. kirk is on the table in the treatment room with Helen testing the stgrength of the machine. She says "I want you to picture that night differently. We left the Chrstmas party, you were feeling wonderful and you had your hand around the waist of my red uniform and as i shifted in my drunkenness, it slipped around the curve of my ample waist, brushing the fringe of my stockings. I smiled and said isn't this your quarters, and you were suddenly awake and said "yes, in fact." i looked at you, my eyes goping back and forth frfom your cabin door to your eyes with a big smile. You said would you like a nightcap? And I said I can't and laughed, i really can't. Please Helen you said, and I looked serious and said "You damned pig, you have no power, I slapped you" and suddenly a man appeared at the corridor. Then Helen turns the knob up to maximum. A scene like this would have saved The Alternative factor. However, i still loved it because of Robert Brown who is taller than i am and I am a giraffe mixed with an elephant.
Do you know what redeems this episode? It has lots of Where No Man Has Gone Before music that is NOT on the CD and it's tracked in with no dialog or sound effects! If "And the Children Shall Lead" had done the same thing with the "Risk is our business" music it would be a masterpiece!

Speaking of unattractive attractive personnnel, how about the one-time helms"person" Lt Radha. My tastes skew a bit younger, but is there anything more desirable than a mature Indian female who at first is quite sassy to Spock, whom she considers her inferior although he is Commander pro tem, then bites her lip and swallows her arrogance once Spock coolly corrects her with words and by adjusting her console. Radha reminds me of a mother who at first belittles her son then secretly desires him, in a reverse "Oedipal" skew. But for goodness sake, Radha, correct me again, but let's do it in your quarters. LOL. Beauty..."Survives."
Radha was Persis Khambatta 11 years before Persis Khambatta was Persis Khambatta.

I saw that horrible movie. Khambatta. What is there to grab? Like using a bowling ball with one big hole instead of three small ones.
And mine.....

Masters, eh? Very nice look she had. My friend has the same look, and my tatses are widening as I view these women again. I think Rand's friend, who she introduced to Charlie, kind of appeals to me. I'll assume you needed to be 18 to work on a starship, so please, let Charlie obsess over Rand, how about you and I and some coffee, or tranya? Incidentally, I'd empty the clip.
The Creator must score a 7-10 Split with V'Ger's prize ball!
You're off base on this one, buddy. Helen Noel naked would improve anything.Not even Dr. Helen Noel...naked...in stirrups on a gyno examination table could have saved "The Alternative Factor."

Photoshop her into a Lazarus photo and we'll see.You're off base on this one, buddy. Helen Noel naked would improve anything.Not even Dr. Helen Noel...naked...in stirrups on a gyno examination table could have saved "The Alternative Factor."
