Sexiest ST Episode

[Eddie Roth]

Even the first one, Pike said something lke "I'm trying to get used to having a woman on my bridge" when his XO was a woman.

You obviously misunderstood the topic. We're talking SEXY not SEXIST.

Happened to me the other way around on the 'Sexist Star Trek' thread... however, I realized my mistake BEFORE posting.

So pray tell - what episode did you almost mention there?

TNG - Justice

Are you guys kidding me? We've gone 20 posts and no one's mentioned Mudd's Women!

Travesty!

Do you mean with or without the Venus drug?

I don't think I ever perceived a Trek episode as particularly 'sexy'.

Yep. It's just not what Trek does well. Individuals can be sexy - Spock, Trip, Damar - but always despite the writing, not because of it. The episodes mentioned so far in this thread are about as sexy as a dishrag. I can think of a lot of cringingly failed attempts by Trek to be sexy, but no actual successes.

For sexy, try Farscape.

The sexiest Trek episode, and this is stretching things but oh well, is the one that inspired my avatar: Mirror, Mirror. Other than that, Amok Time and The Naked Time are pretty sexy for the K/S quotient. Trek is sexiest when it's accidental.

Wasn't there an episode with Tuvok going through Pon'Farr?

Wasn't there an episode with Tuvok going through Pon'Farr?

Yes. It is decidedly non-sexy. It's basically Tuvok masturbating in the holodeck, then the power getting knocked off, then the power coming back on, and Tuvok completing his masturbation in the holodeck. Let's forget that Vulcans are touch telepaths that can presumably differentiate between members of their species and holographic meat puppets. Let's forget pheromones and the plak tow. Pornography is the solution. Hilariously and inexplicably, he needs Tom Paris' help to figure this out, because I'm sure Tuvok, with his genius-level intellect, couldn't have thought of self-help in the holodeck without Pervy Tom's input.

On the plus side: his holowife was pretty hot.

I really hate that episode, because it makes pon farr look like nothing more serious than a case of mild blue balls, and Spock look like a complete jerk for trying to seize control of the Enterprise when apparently jerking off is the perfect pon farr antidote.

I actually can't even remember the A-plot. Was it the one where the Doctor gets put in Seven's body for Hijinx with a capital H?

Actual sexiest episode? Maybe the Cloud Minders. That Dr. Zarkoff-looking guy's daughter was too fine. Also she gave Kirk no shrift in favor of Spock, which was amusing.

Threshold, it has hot lizard sex

Star Trek has never had a sexy episode.
What Star Trek producers consider "sexy" is an embarrassment.

There have been semisexy scenes (all of them in enterprise) but not sexy episodes.

Ilia was pretty sexy. She kept talking about their units.

What was the TNG one where Beverly knocked boots with a "ghost"? That was pretty sensual and well done.
