SCI FI PI

What exactly is a Glamazon?

The just recently made up Sci Fi Channel Dictionary for Cool Stuff states thusly: Glamazon (noun): any babe from any corner of the galaxy who is not only ‘foxy’ but has a master’s degree in kicking serious butt.

A Glamazon will always command attention as she strides into a room/spacecraft/ space station/oddly studio-shaped planetary cave. She may baffle the newbies with her looks, but those who know her respect her brains. And everyone, everywhere respects her ability to put everybody in traction. That's why when Glamazons are about, it's Valentine's Day every day, right here on SCI FI.




Teyla Emmagen (played by Rachel Luttrell)
From: Athos
Show: Stargate: Atlantis
Weapons: At home, Teyla enjoys working out with a brisk pair of fighting sticks, but since she’s joined up with the earthlings, has taken readily to General Issue Air Force weaponry.
Surprisingly: Has a unique psychic ability to connect with The Wraith, the scariest, yet best dressed albino life-force sucking vampires in the Pegasus galaxy.

Buffy Summers (played by Sarah Michelle Gellar)
From: Sunnydale
Show: Buffy The Vampire Slayer
Weapons: When Vampires and demons are your victims de jour, a bladed weapon, an axe and of course a trusty wooden stake are extremely helpful. What is also extremely helpful is having enough kung fu moves to populate a TV series about the life of Bruce Lee.
Surprisingly: The famous all singing, all dancing episode, ‘Once More With Feeling’ was choreographed by Adam Shankman, director of Hairspray. He makes a cameo, dancing in the street.
See her: Weekdays at 6.30am, and midnight, and Saturdays at 7.30am, 5pm and 1 am.

Seven Of Nine /Annika Hansen (played by Jeri Ryan)
From: Tendara Colony
Show: Star Trek: Voyager
Weapons: When we first met Seven of Nine, she was a member of the Borg collective, chock full of technological implants and nanites, giving her built in-lasers and super strength, somewhat disconcerting attributes in a first date.
Surprisingly: Has a lovely singing voice. Is shy and awkward in social situations which she often finds ‘irrelevant’.
See her: On Sci Fi’s Star Trek Saturday, at 7am, 8.30pm and 3.30am and Sundays at 9.50am and 8.20pm.

Xev Bellringer (played by Xenia Seeberg)
Show: Lexx
From: BK3
Weapons: As a half human, half cluster lizard love slave, she has a combination of killer looks and wants, occasionally, to feast on your brain. She can roll in the wheel-like manner of all cluster lizards and is disconcertingly strong.
Surprisingly: Has decided to fall in love with a dead guy, fellow crewman Kai. Has used her cleavage as a silencer.
See her: Tuesdays at 10.30pm and 5am.

Number Six (played by Tricia Helfer)
From: You nearest Cylon regeneration ship
Show: Battlestar Galactica
Weapons: Is strong enough to survive the effects of a nearby nuclear blast, has the ability to psychically link with Gaius Baltar, causing him to see and hear her whilst attempting to have normal conversations in real life. Has a mean right cross.
Surprisingly: She is one version of only twelve Cylon models, some of whom are still aboard the Galactica, hidden even from themselves.
See her: Wednesdays at 10.30pm and 5am.
