If you're wondering which television genre features the hottest women,
look no further than science fiction: Out-of-this-world plots and
premises seem to attract out-of-this-world beauty. From the vixens of
yesteryear to today's current temptresses, these science-fiction TV
starlets bring the sexiness straight to your own living room.
Jessica Alba in Dark AngelJessica Alba (Max Guevara) - 'Dark Angel'
Jessica Alba made quite an impression as the object of desire in the
goofy horror flick 'Idle Hands', but it was James Cameron's underrated
TV series 'Dark Angel' that made her a sci-fi rock star. Jessica
looked great in black leather, stirring up coffee and trouble in a
futuristic dystopian Seattle.
Gillian Anderson (Dana Scully) - 'The X-Files'
Dana Scully might very well be the hottest FBI agent ever, and Gillian
Anderson brought class, beauty and brains to Cris Carter's wildly
popular series, going after ghosts, aliens and dark government
conspiracies every week with David Duchovny. Gillian even somehow made
Scully's unwavering-to-the-point-of-annoying skepticism sexy, which is
no small feat indeed.
Jane Badler (Diana) - 'V: The Original Series'
Who wouldn't succumb to the whims of invading lizard-like aliens when
one of their leaders is wearing a Jane Badler mask? Diana was a sexy
deceiver, charming the people of Earth with her killer smile and
promises of living in universal harmony -- and even when she revealed
her true colors (green, mostly), she was still somehow the sexiest gal
in the galaxy.
Jolen Blalock in Star Trek EnterpriseJolene Blalock (T'Pol) - 'Star
Trek: Enterprise'
T'Pol was a rather gratuitous and ridiculous character, existing to do
little more than apply amusing Vulcan deadpan to the concept of
sexuality week after week on 'Enterprise,' but Jolene Blalock was able
to rise above the absurdity of it all with her sultry and humorous
performance. She's also the first actor to look the most Vulcan-like
since, well, Leonard Nimoy.
Eliza Dushku (Echo) - 'Dollhouse'
If you need someone who plays a character that mostly just seethes
with rage, occasionally pouts and almost always kicks ass, look no
further than Eliza Dushku. 'Dollhouse' allows the former Faith to
expand her range a little more than usual, though, as Echo takes on
different personas -- and deadly assignments – every week.
Summer GlauSummer Glau (River Tam) - 'Firefly'; (Cameron Phillips) -
'Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles'
Summer Glau is currently the science fiction hottie of the 21st
century, despite the fact that her shows are ultimately short-lived.
She excels as the strong, silent pixie-type, kicking all sorts of ass
as the mysterious River Tam on 'Firefly' and channeling the stoic
intensity of Arnold Schwarzenegger as the Terminator assigned to
protect John Connor on 'Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles.'
She's able to twist and turn her body in ways we don't think the laws
of physics intended, and she looks great doing it -- and while both
shows are no more, we have a feeling Summer will come once again to
science fiction before too long.
Lena Headey (Sarah Connor) - 'Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles'
We didn't think anyone could channel the sheer bad-ass girl power of
Sarah Connor more than Linda Hamilton -- but then we saw Lena Headey's
take on the iconic sci-fi role. Lena nailed the uneasy and volatile
mix of compassion, bitterness and anger that is Sarah Connor, and it's
a shame she only had two seasons to strut her stuff.
Tricia Helfer in Battlestar GalacticaTricia Helfer (Number Six) -
'Battlestar Galactica'
Oh, Number Six. How can anyone forget her first appearance on the
revamped 'Battlestar Galactica,' appearing as she did among some old-
school Cylons and proving that she's without a doubt the sexiest
upgrade ever? While her character arc got a little too convoluted and
contradictory for its own good, Six never stopped oozing Sex appeal.
Evangeline Lilly on LostEvangeline Lilly (Kate Austen) - 'Lost'
After five seasons (and the sixth fast approaching), Kate is still --
love her or hate her -- the most appealing and interesting character
on 'Lost.' Kate is the companion you'd want should you ever find
yourself stranded on an island, and Evangeline Lilly does wonders with
being covered in sweat, dirt and grime.
Nichelle Nichols in Star TrekNichelle Nichols (Uhura) - 'Star Trek'
The first 'Star Trek' beauty is still the hottest of them all. While
Zoe Saldana did some impressive work as Uhura in J.J. Abrams' recent
big screen 'Star Trek' reboot, it's Nichelle Nichols who will always
own the role. Serious, sexy, skilled and cool under fire, Nichelle's
Uhura could out-babe any green-skinned alien that Kirk ever stumbled
upon.
Grace Park (Sharon 'Boomer' Valerii) - 'Battlestar Galactica'
Boomer's journey on 'Battlestar Galactica' was an epic one, and we
don't want to give away any spoilers to the uninitiated, but suffice
to say that the only thing better than one Boomer is maybe thousands
of Boomers. Grace Park brought beauty and intensity to a very, very
complicated role(s).
Billie Piper in Doctor WhoBillie Piper (Rose Tyler) - 'Doctor Who'
Billie Piper's Rose Tyler makes time travel all sorts of fun -- she's
smart, spunky and chock full of witty British zingers. She's the
ultimate sidekick for inter-dimensional shenanigans, quick on her feet
and always willing to think outside the box when it comes to solving
paradoxes and other obstacles that come with the time-travel trade.
Jeri Ryan, Star Trek VoyagerJeri Ryan (Seven of Nine) - 'Star Trek:
Voyager'
Probably THE Star Trek babe of the '90s, Seven of Nine was a
"reformed" Borg that, through rather complicated circumstances, ended
up exploring outer space with the good guys. And, like T'Pol after
her, she was subjected to giving deadpan/confused reactions to the
concept of sexuality week after week.
Katee Sackhoff in Battlestar GalacticaKatee Sackhoff (Kara "Starbuck"
Thrace) - 'Battlestar Galactica'
Remember when the new 'Battlestar Galactica' first aired, and legions
of fans loyal to the original series cried with indignation, "Starbuck
is a 'girl'?" Well, now that the series has come to a close, those
fans are now having a hard time remembering a time when the character
wasn't.
Amanda Tapping (Samantha Carter) - 'Stargate SG-1'
The smartest woman in the universe, Major Samantha Carter is also one
of the most beautiful, which makes her a pretty formidable force on
'Stargate SG-1.' Get this -- she's an astrophysicist, and a graduate
of the U.S. Air Force, and the leading expert on the Stargate, and a
hot blonde. Quite the intimidating creature, no?
Faye Valentine in Cowboy BebopFaye Valentine - 'Cowboy Bebop'
Adult Swim's 'Cowboy Bebop' may be a little too cool for school, but
it does score points for its great characters, with the greatest being
Faye Valentine, the sexiest bounty hunter in the galaxy. Faye's curves
and attitude are legendary, and if you ever find yourself with a price
on your head, you may consider just surrendering if it meant that Faye
would be the one to bring you in.
Lindsay Wagner in The Bionic WomanLindsay Wagner (Jaime Sommers) -
'The Bionic Woman'
Michelle Ryan certainly made the role of Jaime Sommers her own on the
new-fangled 'Bionic Woman' series, but Lindsay Wagner remains the true
queen of genetic augmentation, fighting crime with super-speed, super-
strength and super-beauty from the mid- to late-'70s. And remember the
bionic German Shepherd named Maxamillion (who cost a million dollars)?
He was pretty cool, too.
Who's the sexiest sci-fi woman in TV history?
Jessica Alba, 'Dark Angel'Gillian Anderson, 'The X-Files'Jane Badler,
'V'Jolene Blalock, 'Star Trek: Enterprise'Eliza Dushku,

She's pretty, but Samantha Spade (Poppy Montgomery) on Without a Trace

I'm a bit surprised to see Summer Glau with over 30% of the vote when
2nd place is only at 16%. Summer Glau is nice to look at but I never
really thought of her as sexy (especially on Firefly). She has more
of a girl next door look to me.

Nope, AJ Cook on "Criminal Minds" holds the title.
If we're talking Firefly, yes, Gina Torres is "hotter", so was the
on-board call-girl, and even the mechanic.
As usual, this is a "best ever" list that is terribly weighted towards
recent material. I'm actually surprised anyone from the original Star
Trek was mentioned. One can imagine the respondents are young, and are
reporting on what they know and watch, which is fairly recent material.
And maybe even following the pack, so for some reason Summer Glau gets
this top rating, and her career is followed closely.
Until I realized this was about tv series, I think I would have said
Jenny Agutter as sexiest, from the movie Logan's Run.
For tv, I suspect I'd rate Erin Grey as sexiest, oddly enough I don't
remember her from "Buck Rogers" but I remember carefully watching reruns
of "Silver Spoons" because she was on.
I'd have to think some more about others, but I suspect they would be from
the past, which may be a reflection of how one mostly rates women "sexy"
when you are young.

Erin Gray in American spelling. I remember her slinking across the
screen in the "Buck Rogers" title sequence.
Julie Newmar should be on the list for "Batman" and "My Living Doll."
And among Dr. Who's companions, Nicola Bryant (Perpugilliam 'Peri'
Brown) makes Billie Piper's Rose Tyler look like a boy.

I wouldn't even give her that. How about the FBI chick in the new V?

Elizabeth Mitchell.
What about Rachel Nichols, the mannequin-agent on "The Inside?" She's
horrible as an actor, but hot.

Yeah, when I saw this list, I said to myself, "What? No Princess Leia?
No Wilma Deering? No (young) Janice Rand?"
Shenanigans!
I was always partial to Sarah Jane Smith back in the day. I don't watch
the new ones so I don't know how she stacks up.
As Benny Hill would say: Big! Biiiiig!
Louise Jameson as Leela, despite having "muscles like a horse", all time
favorite space babe. I liked both Romana's too. Tom Baker had the best
Who companions. He thought so too; married one of 'em.
How about Morena Baccarin in the new V?! OK, not FBI, but surely Morena
belongs on the original list.

A recurring theme. Jeri Ryan anyone?
And the original list has an even more glaring omission: Diana Rigg!
If we add in movies, we'd need to double the size of the list. Carrie
Fisher. Carrie-Anne Moss. Rebecca Romijn. Sigourney Weaver. Plenty more.
She was the spunky girl reporter type, more cute than sexy. Peri's
cleavage was imposing, but the moment I saw Billy Piper, I dubbed her
"The Companion who most looks like a porn star" here. Then later I
saw that she was starring in "Secret Diary of Call Girl".

Well, let me put it this way. I don't remember what she looked like.
Who's the sexiest sci-fi woman in TV history?
Jessica Alba, 'Dark Angel'Gillian Anderson, 'The X-Files'Jane Badler,
'V'Jolene Blalock, 'Star Trek: Enterprise'Eliza Dushku,
'Dollhouse'Summer Glau, 'Firefly' and 'Terminator: The Sarah Connor
Chronicles'Lena Headey, 'Terminator: The Sarah Connor
Chronicles'Tricia Helfer, 'Battlestar Galactica'Evangeline Lilly,
'Lost'Nichelle Nichols, 'Star Trek'Grace Park, 'Battlestar
Galactica'Billie Piper, 'Doctor Who'Jeri Ryan, 'Star Trek:
Voyager'Katee Sackhoff, 'Battlestar Galactica'Amanda Tapping,
'Stargate SG-1'Faye Valentine, 'Cowboy Bebop'Lindsay Wagner, 'The
Bionic Woman'
I can't believe they didn't include Claudia Christian from Babylon5.
There's bias toward recently viewed shows. Jane Badler got in because
a lot of people have been sparked by the new V to chick out the old.
Can you rocket scientists explain how "Without a Trace" and "Criminal
Minds" are Sci-Fi? Or were you watching the lesser known "Without a Clue"?
You know, "rocket scientist" is an illusion. It doesn't require great
skill or creativity. The term is invoked to suggest such, as if a rocket
science isn't among us mere mortals. There likely are some very specific
bits of rocketry that are unique to the field, but chances are good that
most "rocket scientists" happened upon that career, and have background in
something else that is applicable to rockets. But those who use the term
in that way suggest something Above Normal, when that isn't necessarily
the case.
That said, you might have paid attention and noticed someone rebuked the
original post for suggesting the female FBI agent in "The X Files" was
among the sexiest actresses in science fiction tv series. The rebuke
was that no, she wasn't sexiest among sf tv series, but might be sexy
among female FBI agence in tv series.
And then that was in turn rebuked, which is where everyone is right now.
The rebuke on this second wave was that Gillian Anderson doesn't even
qualify as sexiest TV FBI agent, and then they've proceeded to name
some others.
Michael
Excellent explanation and since it exposes trotsky (yet again) as either
hopelessly clueless or just pathetically argumentative for its own sake,
he's likely to respond (if past history is any guide) by accusing you of
some form of homosexuality or commenting on the size of your penis.
Of course it doesn't take a "rocket scientist" to discern the real
reason that every conversation that trotsky has with anyone inevitably
ends up with him talking about penises.
Yeah, my bad, when I see "Re: Sexiest Sci-Fi Women in TV History" the
first thing that comes to mind is "don't bother reading the whole thread
because I'm not really interested in what a bunch of fanboy virgins have
to say about it." That said, if you think "The X-Files" is an "FBI"
show, and not a show about paranormal, supernatural, and preternatural
activity with an alien invasion subtext--read: science fiction--then it
turns out this thread is by fanboy wankers that don't even understand
the genre.
So, Michael, you might want to explain yourself because this is either
an elaborate troll, or a really misguided attempt at setting the record
straight.
And it looks like Thanny has chosen the "Without a Clue" option.
Q'uelle surprise.
First Romana only; never liked the chinless wimp Romana lite.
She looks a lot like that chick on LOST.

We never said they were. The original article said Scully was the
hottest FBI agent ever, not the hottest FBI agent on a sci-fi show.

*** PLEASE don't copy me on replies, I'll read them in the group ***
Should we, by your shitty showing here, put you in the fanboy wanker
category? I gave an intelligent response, and you responded with apile
of shit.
I must be incredibly tough, I don't think there is a guy here who isn't
afraid to go a few rounds with me over the facts. At least admit you're
afraid too.
I see what happened here. You got confused--when the o.p. described
Scully as FBI agent, you figured you might as well change the subject to
hot FBI agents, which the magnanimous David Johnston referred to "thread
drift" after only one post! This is all a bunch of of idiocy wrapped in
a riddle and enveloped in a pile of dog turds. In summary:
a) changing the subject after one post is cheesy at best. Johnston,
please make a note of these.
b) talking about hot chicks on sci-fi shows *is* all about fanboy
virgins--see the TV show "The Big Bang Theory" if any of you fanboys
need a point of reference on this.
c) I can't believe after all these years on Usenet that I'm still
fascinated by people clinging to untenable positions like this.
Or that they did include an animated character.
or Patricia Tallman from Babylon 5.

Unless it's used in reference to non-conventional, future rocket design,
e.g. ion drives, nuclear pulse, etc. Then, "rocket scientist" might
suggest something significantly above normal.

She had her moments, but most of them included a motorcycle. Put her in
black leather next to Emma Peel. No comparison.

Not even the hottest FBI agent on her show. Unless you limit the list
to regulars, in which case she was the only female agent. After the
pilot, and except for the episode when she ate the bug, not sexy.

Ok, maybe. I was not a fan.

No. Not even the sexiest crew member who spoke Vulcan.

No.

The least sexy of the four regular women on Serenity, and that's not
even counting Mrs. Reynolds and Nandi. And despite that, she still
belongs on this list!

Not as a blonde. Her brunette avatars were very hot. Cally was hotter.

Gorgeous, but not really sexy. Doesn't come close to Juliet or Claire
(who also belongs here for Roswell), or Libby, or Penny, or Naomi.

Maybe in those days.

Maybe not the hottest companion of all time, but very much closer to
the top of the list than the bottom.
I think I'd put Lady Christina de Souza very near her on that list.

Sorry, but this show had a serious lack in the heat department. Sure,
you got your occasional Musetta Vander or Alicia Coppola but overall, a
serious lack of heat.

Yes. But I'd put her a step behind Dr. Fraiser if Janet qualifies for
this list. In fact, I hate Helen Magnus so much, she's off the list.

Uh, nobody has mentioned Tamara Taylor, the hottest woman on TV right
now.
Yes, Bones is Sci-Fi. Look at the magic imagerizer Angela uses. Oh, and
Angela belongs on this list too. And Bones herself is certainly not
hard to look at either.
Someone mentioned Diana Rigg, whose picture is in my dictionary next to
the word "sexy".
Anne Francis stars in Honey West. I always thought it was SF because
of the gadgets she used. Which qualifies Agent 99, Barbara Feldon, too.
Col. Wilma Deering.
Shiri Appleby, Katherine Heigl, Majandra Delfino and, of course, Emilie
de Ravin (if she qualifies) and Diane Farr all made Roswell smoke.
How have I left Wendy Watson and Lacey Thornfield until this far down
the list?
Larisa Oleynik on Third Rock from the Sun.
Ok, last one: Peta Wilson as Nikita.
PS. Not on the list, but I just ran across Lauren Woodland from Alien
Nation. She was just a kid then, but looks like she's grown up now.
Are ye daft?
One link:

The picture should be above the fold on anything but a cell phone browser.
Oh, that picture ...
I dare you to view it, then come back here and repeat what you said with
a straight face!
Are ye daft?
Not even the hottest FBI agent on her show. Oh, she tries, but she just
doesn't have the stuff.
You didn't keep a straight face, though. You blushed. I saw it!
