@unclejimmy tv-budgets being what they are ‘human with make-up’ is the best we’re ever going to get for an alien that is seen every episode.

I think Yaphid (the blob/jelly alien) is the only really weird one on the roster. He also had an episode in which he made love with the doctor …
They did feature one alien that was practically a walking dick with scrotum … and true to what you’d expect he was the source of a porn adventure for their version of the Holodeck. Seeing Bortus perfom what essentially were straight copies from a human porn movie was *eh* interesting, disturbing and hilarious at the same time. Like I said : lots of low hanging fruit in the humour department for that series. But then American humour never gets to Blackadder level *woof* *woof*

I’ve never been that critical of where writers get their material from, so a re-themed episode isn’t something that bothers me that much. If it did I’d probably hate the classic series, because that was sold as ‘wagon train in space’ …
