This is true, not much eye (man) candy from Season 1. Season 2 had Michael Forest as Apollo "Who Mourns for Adonais?" so that makes up for a lot. He was rather hot in that skimpy gold outfit IMO.

But if you think about it, women got much more airtime for their eye candy. We had Kirk, Spock and McCoy - all of who had some degree of sex appeal. Then we had Scotty and Checkov whom many found sexy too. Just because Takei is gay doesn't mean some didn't find Sulu sexy (he does have a nice voice). All the men got was the minor characters of Uhura and Chapel. That makes 6 to 2 in favor of the ladies. I think that made up for the lack of guest stars. Besides, we got Sarek as the Romulan commander in S1.
It's definitely inexplicable that Sherry Jackson was left off the list. She'd be my top choice, followed by Madlyn Rhue and Emily Banks.
What about male guest characters such as Dave Bailey, Robert Tomlinson, Kevin Riley, Charlie Evans, Lt. Stiles, Mr. DeSalle, etc.? I'm no judge of whether women would find them attractive, but it's certainly not true that all the male guests were older men.

He's not enough for you?
The hottest season 1 guest star for me was the guy who appeared in one scene in "The Man Trap" as the fake crewman/form that the M-113 creature took to try to get to Uhura. (The pic doesn't really do him justice.)
But Khan was very hot, too.
Out of the last 2 seasons, guys that stand out are Flavius Maximus ("Bread and Circuses") and god Apollo ("Who Mourns for Adonais"). Ensign Garrovick was good-looking, too.
So what? Ricardo Montalban was much hotter than the woman who played Marla.
As for the women, I don't actually find most of the S1 female guest stars sexy, apart from Andrea, Vina and Helen Noel. The women in "Mudd's Women" had silly haircuts and weren't all that anyway. Among the regulars, Uhura was really hot and gorgeous, but Rand had that silly beehive on her head, and Chapel proved that platinum wig didn't suit Majel Barrett at all. She looked much better as Number One. It also didn't help that both of them were bland and whiny. At least that was rarely a problem with the male guest stars.
Seasons 2 and 3 are better in terms of female guest star hotness: the Romulan Commander, Marlena Moreau, Zarabeth, Nona ("The Private Little War"), Kelinda ("By Any Other Name"), T'Pring, Marta ("Whom Gods Destroy"), Isis in her human form ("Assignment: Earth"), what's-her-name played by Julie Newmar...
I've never noticed it before, but she looks a bit like Jane Leeves (Daphne) in the early seasons of Frasier.Andrea - Sherry Jackson

Of Course
Dr. Helen Noel!

Louis Armstrong called intercourse "doing the vonce."
Oh yeah, the Romulan Commander. I loved him!
Khan looked really hot, but the one thing that puts me off he wasn't as charming as he should have been... he was a bit too much of an arrogant jerk from the word go. Or maybe that was just McGivers being too pathetic from the start.
Back in 1967 when “Space Seed” was first broadcast, my mother watched a bit of the show and remarked, “That girl is such a simp!”
Another vote for Andrea.
Now, where's the Season 2 poll?

Is it me or does Helen Noel look a little like Gina Davis?
