But she did a pretty good job in the series "Picard."

Yeah she did, but come on! Are you seriously trying to tell me that the fact she was essentially poured into that cat suit had nothing to do with their decision to hire her lol ;)

I'm saying Star Trek was all about sex appeal. So why not go overboard once and for all 😂

There's a pattern I noticed back then...
Jadzia Dax, 7 of 9, T'Pol... They were all buxom bullet bra wearing stiff cold unyielding women who seemed just a wee bit off melting that impenetrable icy exterior if just the right man was to come along... almost.

Looks like somebody took their cue from the original number one in the pilot, it was also

You tend to have a particular perspective of women. Not certain any officer was a bullet bra wearing stiff cold unyielding women who seemed just a wee bit off melting that impenetrable icy exterior. There are many lessons to learn from Star Trek and none were how to be uncompromising.

Those three were.

The original Number One/second in command didn't exactly support torpedoes, but she did have that icy emotionless persona. In fact, when they decided to drop the original pilot and redo it with Kirk replacing Pike at the helm, she was also dropped, while providing the template for Spock's personality. The cold unemotional Vulcan was an adoption of her character.

Originally Spock was laughing and acting just like a regular person, no inhibited emotions at all. That was with the original pilot. With the later pilot that aired, he had basically been morphed into her psychologically.

Oops, that comment above was actually supposed to be deleted when I replaced it with the comment below.

I still don't interpret them like that...they have something you're not seeing yet.

Well in Jadzia's case, we're dealing with basically Terry Farrell being unable to act. I had said from the very beginning that she seeed like some model strutting the runway, cold and distant. I found out a few years later that she was actually a former Ford model. So her being on the somewhat frigid side might have had something to do with the fact that she just didn't know how to express herself. It is possible, however, having a bath 500 year old Symbiont, she was intended to be a bit indiscrutable, and thus distant. Who knows.

With Seven of Nine, however, we're dealing with a former cyborg - one who was rendered that way since early childhood. So emotions were irrelevant to her for most of her life. That was the deal with the character - her becoming human again. So being emotionless was written into the character as her journey was her trying to reconnect with them.

As being a Vulcan, T'Pol, not feeling emotion, let alone expressing it, was central to Vulcan culture.

On the other hand, like Seven of Nine, T'Pol had no problem expressing her body. In fact, she was literally featured in the most steamy scene in the whole franchise. Ever.

Beat me to it.
Look up the reason why Kate Mulgrew had a major problem with Jeri Ryan.

Lol! It was pretty obvious they had issues, wasn't it?

Oh, and at least Jeri Ryan had something of a personality unlike that walking cardboard cutout that was Terry Farrell.

Jadzia Dax, Seven of Nine, T'Pol... they were all buxom bullet bra wearing stiff cold unyielding women who seemed just a wee bit the verge of getting that impenetrable icy exterior melted if just the right man was to come along... almost.

Looks like somebody took their cue from the original Number One in the pilot, who just happened to be a buxom bullet bra wearing stiff cold unyielding women.
