The first 30 seconds i for sure thought this was going to be porn until the chick with purple hair turned down the black guys offer of some action!!

Can those skirts get any shorter? 70s women were hot! and they had real breasts too bk then lol

@nadzorka2929 LOL.

Looks like Enterprise wasn't the first failed attempt to mix sci-fi with soft porn.

And the chick with the purple hair is still way hotter just walking across the room than Jolene Blalock could ever be with a bucket of decontamination gel.

God I hate that show. I hate it so much.

If only the 80's had really been this groovy.

the ironic thing about all this is ET apparently knows everything before us ie where the craft will be at any moment and whom will be on board, so then what chance do humans think they've got?

Prezbylewski screws up again...

@JBofBrisbane It could have been better; the helmet was kind of stupid looking. Erin Grey was a bit of a doe eyed clueless wonder on that show. Some of the most horrible acting I've seen in Sci-fi! To each his own.  I will put Lex up against that show for sexiness any day!

[JBofBrisbane]

@zenjim007 - Buck Rogers costuming "dressed women unsexy"? Have another look at Erin Gray in that white jumpsuit, man!

[MrLimborace]

Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun-dun!!

[mkrbrtsn1]

That 1970's design was so cool!

For a 1969 show the FX were outstanding.

This Gerry Anderson series was made over 40 years back,and for its time was pretty 'modern' and stylish and even,as people here have noted,quite sexy! The first episode spends a lot of time with plot exposition and the scripting seems a bit lame. I think they did a lot with limited budgets as well.It gets better though. As a teenage lad I had quite a crush on the beautiful Peter Gordeno [the skydiver captain] who sadly died a few years ago.
