In which episodes did T'Pol look her best?

Our lovely Subcommander has finished her "Story". From Carbon Creek.

Any time after the first two seasons and the indoor/outdoor carpet catsuit. That and the short did nothing for the character.

:scream:
 
I always feel like she was created in a lab. She's too perfect looking. Big lips. Perfect nose. Great cheekbones. Huge boobs and perfect butt. And pencil thin. She's attractive, but when I look at her I swear she's had a lot of plastic surgery.
 
I think it's simply hair and makeup. Jolene Blalock looks so different than T'Pol that I could not believe what I saw on the internet or Youtube when I first googled that actress I never heard of before. I saw my first episode of Enterprise a little more than a year ago. I pride myself in noticing details and the hair and makeup people were working overtime on the show. Depending on the mood of the scene her hair could strict or inviting, playful or demure. Her nose would look different, her cheekbones more or less prominent and those magnificent lips were getting bigger or smaller.
I am confident that there were Max Factor's henchmen at work.
Somehow she always looked her best in her quarters - Lucky Trip.

Just watched "Harbinger" again. Love T'Pol in her PJ's. And out of them. The scene where she dropped her robe was cut when it originally aired here in Dallas. Ashame it was a body double for the shot of her backside.

Well, that describes most TV people, actually. ;)

But I think I get what you're saying. I liked T'pol as a character, and I think Jolene Blalock did well in the part. I just wish they had used an actual vulcan uniform, not some catsuit, that was an obvious ratings ploy. When it is that obvious, it sort of breaks the 4th wall for me, and just screams " hey all you 15 year old boys, here's some T&A to drool over for ya!" I think T'pol would have been just as attractive in a flattering uniform, but in not so an obvious and overt way. More like Dax.
 
Which episode did T'Pol look her best?
That's easy to answer -
The episode in which she appears!!
(ie; all of them)
 
I may be getting off topic here, but I find this thread odd. Blalock has spoken publicly about how ENT did not honor T'Pol as a character, nor as a Vulcan. Personally, I am always disappointed when T'Pol shows up in some overly sexualized outfit. It adds nothing to my enjoyment of the episode nor to T'Pol as a character. I thought this was a pretty common opinion within the Trek community, though.

This thread makes me think otherwise? And like, no shame to anyone here. I only bring this up because I thought there was somewhat of a hatred held by the community toward the fact that T'Pol (and Seven of Nine for that matter) were over sexualized.
 
My goodness, this thread hasn't been dredged up for 10 years! In these parts, we prefer to let the dead rest in peace.

Feel free to start a new T'Pol appreciation thread if you like.
