A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Dear God. Six really does have THE most horrendous of all possible selections of dresses. Awful. Awful awful awful.
I don't know, I might find the woman attractive if she was in a nice roll-neck sweater and some smart trousers, maybe. Or, you know, not actively off-putting. Really, though, I don't get the whole she's sexy thing
at all.
Roslin, hell yeah. Apollo - gah. Starbuck, yes, and Boomer, and Gaius, all good. But Six? SO not sexy to me.
I realise that I maybe sound like I'm being a bit 'oh, she's so obvious, only shallow people fancy the skinny blonde model-types', but I don't think that's what I'm doing. I mean, I see the sex appeal with Kate Moss. I fancy Portia DiRossi (sp?). I can fancy model-looking people. But I
so
don't get it with Six. (Although I rather enjoyed the Boomer/Six picture just on the basis of teh gay and despite not lusting after Six.)
Mememe. Anyway - Roslin/Apollo. Such a sexy notion, that. Yay for them.
What, you have a problem with a tall, skinny, blonde, buttfloss-wearing robot sex-toy villain-vixen with a worship complex, whose persuasive skillset seems to coincide with her blowjob skillset? Who are you, Betty Freidan or something??
I saw that woman -- don't know her name -- on some sports "top ten" list show. She seemed like a reasonably sober, coherent, and informed opinion-holder (which is more than can be said for some on those shows). Surely she can get a job where she doesn't have to pant
all
her lines. Also, I would vote her some comfortable shoes.

I so agree with that. And there's chemistry there, too.

It's been argued that the Cylon plot all along called for Baltar to be seduced in order to get access to the defense computers, so it makes sense that Six would be ultra-sexy.
You could also argue that the creators and writers need a good week at the Michigan Womyns Festival, or to be ritually beaten with wet spaghetti, or to be stuffed into 3-inch heels and made to walk ten miles.
You can argue a lot of things.
I love Six too. She has a mix of sex and menace I find very appealing. She could snap Baltar like a twig, and he likes it.
I guess it comes down to the question of, is she there just to provide titillation for the audience, or does her presence make some narrative sense. Sometimes I like her, sometimes she annoys me, but I think she fits in the series - unlike the completely gratuitous "decontamination gel" scene in
Enterprise,
which made me never watch that show again.
Fay, check out the pictures from a con that someone posted in LJ Tricia Hefler is in a fairly sedate top and skirt and looks lovely, I think.

You know, by the end of the series, I was kind of missing the decon chamber. It was so gratuitous.
Speaking of which, did anyone else actually watch the last ep of Enterprise? Because, if so,
Trip DID NOT DIE. Stupid-ass Berman and Braga. They'd have done better to end the show at the previous episode.
I didn't mind the ending of Enterprise, but then again, I never got attached to it, so I didn't see the addition of Riker and Troi to the finale as cheapening the show's integrity.
The death was a bit of a waste too, but it was much better than I was expecting.
