If you're watching Star Trek, you're not watching it just for the revealing clothing.
That's just a bonus

WTF MOMENT OF THE WEEK:
I was watching "Twilight" last night (voted the #1 episode by Enterprise fans; a quality pick, BTW), and at the end, UPN aired a promo for this episode.
I typically think that UPN has the worst promos ever, and this one was no exception. However, this one was so bad, that it deserves special mention.
The highlight of the whole thing is when one of the Orion women says:
"Captain Archer has a large..."
[There is a pause at this point, and the word "LARGE" appears in huge letters on the screen]
Archer then says, "ship?"
And the Orion female confirms, "ship!"
------------
I think most people would agree that UPN's attempts at attracting male viewers with sexual titilation is pathetic; however, this promo was just so obvious in its attempts that it just made me laugh.
I think this promo could fall into the "so bad it's good" category.

"Hey, does this look like a 'Q" to you?"
"How about now?"
LOL, I love Quagmire, TUE! Great quote!
Nothing wrong with sexual titilation, dude. And you can't have an episode about Orion women without it getting sexual.
I think the producers missed out on something; playing in the background they should have had an updated version of Sugarloaf's 'Green-Eyed Lady', and had someone singing it as, 'Green-Skinned Lady'!
I agree there's nothing wrong with the sexual titilation, but it's pathetic that they try to use it to attract people to Star Trek. In the farthest corners of my mind, I can't imagine that such a ploy is successful.

Well, TUE, the way I see it is it's over, Enterprise is officially, irritreivably done and kaput thanks to pig-headed UPN execs, despite fan interest, so titalate away, give me episodes that cater to the lowest common denominator, and get it over with. We no longer have to worry about ratings and a series renewal, so even good writing isn't even a concern to me. Well, a bit, but I think you get my drift. I always wanted to see Orions and Andorians and Tellarites on contemporary Trek, going back to TNG, and now that they're here, I'll be satisfied that at least some original series aliens made a re-appearance, if only for 22nd century type jello wrestling!
Sexually revealing outfits have been a Trek staple since TOS Season 1 (see Andrea from "What Are Little Girls Made Of?").
As I recall, the term was the "Theiss Titillation Theorem".
