Andrea The Android

There are Androids.....

And then there's Andrea The Android from classic Trek, What Are Little Girls Made Of?

 Any questions?

Android Logic

The problem with Android programming is - the programming...

Halloween III - Season of the Witch - Androids Run Amuck

It may not be Star Trek, but fans of Halloween III: Season of the Witch - directed by John Carpenter - remember those nasty androids - straight out of the darker episodes of Trek.

Heads Up

Being an android, Data has one helluva head on his shoulders.

Sometimes it's not even on his shoulders.

Immortality's Highly Emotional Price

What price immortality?  How about chronic sorrow and loss?  When Kirk's Enterprise comes upon a planet with an odd duo, the Starfleet crew encounters a man who lives forever and one who was never alive at all.

Captain Kirk is captivated by a sexy, young woman - one Rayna Kapec.  Rayna, played by actress Louise Sorel, appears as the worldly man's perfect companion or even his ideal mate.  She's lovely, impressively well read and eternally charming.  She is all these things and can be many more, because she's artificial.  As an android, Rayna can be programmed with many attractive attributes, but the most elusive condition and fragile quality - that of human emotional interaction - eludes her.  Ultimately, it's the female construct's undoing, and a heartbreaking loss for both Flint and James T. Kirk.

Seductive Electric Sex

One of my favorite movie lines of all time is from director Bob Clark's holiday classic, A Christmas Story.  Talking about his father's 'major award', Ralphie (Peter Billingsley) as narrator comments, "Only one thing in the world could've dragged me away from the soft glow of Electric Sex gleaming in the window."

In the original series episode, I, Mudd, slimy conman Harry Mudd makes a return and he's once again surrounded by more than a few hot beauties.  This time, however, the sexual allure isn't from drug enhanced super babes, but more like erotically charged refugees from Ridley Scott's Blade Runner.  Mudd's now mixed himself up with highly advanced artificial intelligence - electric sex in the seductive form of super powerful androids.  Care to get acquainted with them? 

Star Trek Sexy Spotlight: Andrea The Android - Sherry Jackson

Androids are sexy.  Well, OK, they certainly can be.  Take Andrea from Star Trek - The Original Series.  Played by actress Sherry Jackson, Andrea is one android who helps to define the sexual allure of an artificially constructed human being.  Captain Picard's science officer, Data (Brent Spiner) may have been known for his burning intellectual thirst and hunger for human experiences and emotions, but before him, we met the erotically charged Andrea.

Created by the cybernetic scientst Roger Korby, Andrea could entice starship Captains like James T. Kirk as easily as flipping on a switch. However, the sexual energy - Lothario Kirk's legendary erotic mojo - could work both ways.  When Captain Kirk kissed Andrea, it enlisted stimulating 'emotions' within her.  When Andrea passed on her new sexual education to her startled creator, it did them both in.  Ah, the burning power of love!
