Pajiba

i was in love with E.T.'s henry thomas when i was a kid. "elllllliottttttt."

Jean Luc-Picard and Riker on the side.

R U kidding?

My very first was the fellow right in your picture up there, James Tiberius Kirk.
Followed by:
Doctor Who (Tom Baker edition)
Ham Tyler from the original V
Jean-Luc Picard
Crichton from Farscape
and
Mal "Oh God Do Me Right Here, In Front of My Husband, Even" Reynolds

Jonathan Brandis from seaQuest. I swore I was going to marry him. Thinking about him still makes me sad.

Vicky Vale.

Assuming this is includes comic books, it was probably Jessica Drew, the original Spider Woman. I remember seeing a panel of her climbing up a wall in that tight red costume. An ass man was born that day.

Can I point out how the placement of this poll basically ensures its inaccuracy? The people drawn to this SCI-FI comment diversion are going to tend toward the Sci-Fi genre.

Anyways, it'd probably be Tennant-Who for me. I've never watched too much sci-fi.

My first crush was on Agent Fugi of the Science Patrol from the original Ultraman series. I've had a thing for Japanese women ever since.

Holy coincidence, I just admitted to this one on a fellow 'Jiban's facebook page not half an hour ago.

Chekov, from the original Star Trek. To this day, I love me a nice Russian accent.

Dianna Troi
mmhm

I'd let her psycho analyze me any day.

And maybe a little Dr. Crusher on the side, you know in that tie me up and spank me kind of way...

Dr. McCoy, no contest.

Fox Mulder.

The first was Data from Star Trek: TNG, followed by Jonathan Brandis (makes me sad too, wooky) from SeaQuest and finally Malcolm Reynolds. Since Data's too old now and Jonathon Brandis is dead, I guess I'll have to settle for Mal.

Except, there is now (David Tennant's) Dr. Who...

Mmmm...David/Mal sandwich. And I could always do with a little Captain Jack...

I'll be in my room.

My one and only:

Han Solo.

I can't believe no one's mentioned him. The hell?

Han Solo. I was only seven when I saw Star Wars for the first time and I knew immediately that I would marry Han Solo.

Forget whiney-ass Luke Skywalker. I was all about the bad boys - even at a young age.

It was surprisingly difficult to choose between 'Comic Book Geeks' and 'Hipster Douchebags'. I like to think I have a foot in both camps.

SaBrina >> Good point about biasing the survey. I have a little film nerd and a little hipster douchebag in me, but I have to choose sci-fi if I can only have one.

Awesome. Finally someone with good taste!

Bwah.

Scully

Yeah, I gotta agree with the people going for Scully. Gillian Anderson still makes me tingle.

Leonard Nimoy -- jeeze no one listed him yet. He was just so darned . . . analytical.

I will also cop to a huge crush on David McCallum in Man from U.N.C.L.E. And then there was Billy Boles who was the first boy to ever beat me in a foot race. And now I think I've said too much...

Oh, pisaster, I had a crush on Dr. Bashir too. Yummy. Was also rather fond of Harry Kim from Voyager (though that was more of a platonic crush).

She-Hulk. Need I say more?

Picard. Watching Next Generation made me a woman when I was 9. I am 26 and am still kind of in love with him.

Leuce, my first love was Data too! I worked in an Ace Hardware when I was 15, and I flirted madly with a local guy that was Brent Spiner's twin every time he came in. (Of course, as he was at least twice my age, I think it terrified him.)

Does "All of the Above except the last one" count as an official answer? Because that's mine.

Jean-Luc Picard. Life long affinity for bald men with British accents = check and check.

Heehee, Annie Uh Oh. I always thought the Blue Ranger was the cutest with his glasses and nerdosity. I hated that they all paid more attention to the Green Ranger. He wasn't all that.

She's been mentioned several times but I can't help stating my unequivocal love for Special Agent Dana Scully.

Hahaha oooh boy. Han Solo. Star Wars was my bedtime story till I was seven and we got the trilogy on VHS. I was twelve when The Phantom Menace was released and I knew then - there was only one trilogy and it started at number four. Han effing Solo. And he shot first.

Um... it's recent, but I guess I'll have to go with Ianto Jones. He wears a suit extremely well.

I feel so much better about my unhealthy lust for Jeff Goldblum knowing other Pajibans love him too! And foursweatervests, I ADORE your name!

Okay, where are all the other horror lovers? There have to be more than 3 gorehounds on Pajiba. Come on! Dustin even specified Clive Barker type.

Kellie Martin's character on SeaQuest. She doesn't know this, but we're married. It's true.

Also, I am so glad that I get to be the first to say her name, but Chiana. Holy, holy, holy fuck do I want Chiana. I am so, so glad that Gigi Edgley took dirty pictures. Thank you, Gigi.

I would say Luke Skywalker was my first crush but as I grew a bit older and "wiser" (I was all of six years old when I saw Empire), I knew that Han Solo was the real deal. I'm a sucker for the slightly pompous, sarcastic guy every time.

By the way, I think the poll results probably aren't a true indicator of the Pajiba population since the Sci-Fi title may have kept some people who put themselves into other "genres" from participating. Just sayin'. . .

Scully. End of.

Gimme a break, I'm too damn old to remember crap like that. I'm lucky I remember what I had for breakfast ... did I have breakfast? Who am I?

Oh yeah ... I'm a Sci-Fi geek but it was a toss-up with hipster douchebag. I like a lot of movies, it's hard to label myself, but the last two movies I've seen as "D9" and "Moon," so ...

Kirk was hot and didn't mind giving up a few red shirts (and his pants) to his overall, and usually somewhat dillusional plans that surprisingly worked-out in the end, but my first real tummy tingling crush that touched on the sexual and not just on a Davy Jones ("Aawww he's so cute in a totally non-threatening way") was on Starbuck (Dirk Benedict) in the original Battlestar Gallactica. It all had a tragic end when I say the movie Sssssss.

Pffffft....

Take your comment diversion to King Tut, asshole.

*this will be BarbadoSlim's stock response from this moment on*

Any complaints can be e-mailed to: www.tellittokingtutasshole.com

Clarissa.

What? She could stop time and rearrange shit, no?

my first was probably luke skywalker. i too also loved (with pictures on my wall!!) dirk benedict/starbuck. i also fell real hard for the michael keaton/batman.

Victoria >> Saying that Han Solo fired "first" implies that Greedo fired at all. He didn't. :- )

----------------------------------------------

I have you to thank, sir for establishing what SHOULD have been obvious since 19 motherfuckin' 77.

Not only did Greedo fail to fire, he was murdered IN. COLD. BLOOD. Solo, FTW.

Bit of a latecomer to the SciFi love - far as i can remember, my first crush would have to be 5th element - LeeLoo.

Also since the thread seems to have diverted a bit, honorary mentions from BSG:

Number 6 AND Kara Thrace. (Greed is ok right?)

XD

Dick Grayson/Nightwing.
That is all.

Erin Grey from "Buck Rogers" was my first Sci-Fi crush.

Mathilda May from "Lifeforce" was my first awakening.

no way, sci fi gets the most votes on a page about sci fi crushes

Mathilda May is a good one
Alex Mack fans are pedos

Fox Mulder was my crush and, I'm embarrassed to say, I had a thing for Dean Cain, but only as Clark Kent. Something about the glasses.... (That show was definitely one of those ones that should be kept for adolescent memory. Rewatching as an adult leaves you wondering if you were maybe a little brain damaged when you were a teenager.)

I also had a secret love for Jonathan Brandis. Secret, because I was friends with that kind of teenage girl at the time. She would have shanked me to prove that she loved him more, and the crush just wasn't worth sacrificing a kidney.

Years later, when I told another friend about his death, she immediately said 'Oh, maybe that was because he got that letter I sent him, telling him I'd kill myself if he didn't respond'.

Help me out here: am I the only female who DIDN'T go completely fucking insane during puberty?

figgy, Kelly, Victoria, Prairigirl, and any non-posting lurkers out there, I'm completely with you for Han Solo as my first and category-defining Sci-Fi crush.

We love him because he's a scoundrel; there aren't enough scoundrels in our lives... am I right?!

Han Solo: the original Captain Tightpants.

Shoot! that should have been...

For the purposes of the poll, I'm more of a fantasy girl but I choose sci-fi. First crush would have to be Oz from Buffy, and I'm in complete agreement with the above poster who said Michael from Roswell. Sorry, those were my coming of age years.

I assume cartoon wise was Galaxy Express, no surprise to why I'm so depressed all the time now, that is not a cartoon a 6 years old should obsess about! though if I have to go even back apparently when I was oly 6 months old I used to wake up to the opening credits of Doraemon, the space cat, I mean I wasn't even old enough to hold up my own head!

Pamela Hensley.
Princess Ardala.
Buck Rogers in the 25th Century.

I was ten, and she was a Draconian Princess in a fuzzy white headdress with glittery inverted horns with bangles--we fell in love instantly.

From memory it was Riker from TNG. I think I was probably 8 or so at the time...I started my habit of crushes on fictional characters at a young age. It's probably why I'm single...

Erin Grey (Wilma) on Buck Rogers. Also the hot telepath on "Space: 1999". And Jane Badler (Diana) on "V".

As I wrote about Erin Grey I just noticed Kballs beat me to it. Well played, sir.

I'm late to all Pajiba articles these days due to you freaking lawyers, or at least your kindred spirits. Yep, day 3 of jury duty starts in 30 minutes. Kind of interesting but DAMN my hand hurts from taking all those notes. Also, the jury has been asking more questions than the lawyers. Then the lawyers re-direct again after the witness answers our questions. Collectively, we are finding this amusing and think we could handle the cross examinations much more efficiently.

Carry on.

I was 7 at the time! Cut me some slack!

I was infatuated with Tom Corbett, Space Cadet.
(Who wants to guess my age?)

It was Mr. Spock all the way for me. I was 4 or 5. He looked like my dad...................time for more therapy.

Since we're apparently including comic book characters, I'd have to go with Rachel Summers, circa Uncanny X-Men #200 as my first.

Soon after, though, Illyana Rasputin became the most intense crush of my twelve-year-old self. I still have a super-cool poster of her.

There have been oh so many over the years (with the most recent being Rodney McKay) but the very first was Data. From the ages of 10 to perhaps 16 it was all about Data. Sweet, sweet Data. Mmmmmm.... Data. You know the episode where he gets a girlfriend and after they kiss she asks him what he's thinking and he says he's thinking about making a new cat food suplement for Spot? Yeah... the idea of cat food is still sort of erotic for me. Which I guess explains why District 9 turned me on so much.

The Sigourney Weaver double whammy of Ellen Ripley and Dana Barrett. I'm pleased to say she still looks pretty beautiful, and she's still very much a SciFi crush. (Especially after Galaxy Quest.)

Gah! Late to the party. Well, I didn't appreciate Han Solo until I was older, so that made Luke Skywalker my first Sci Fi crush.

I mean, sure he wasn't hot like Han, but he was closer to my age, therefore making him both more accessible and relatable. AND! He was tormented and mystical and stuff! When I was a kid, I sure dug tormented and mystical and stuff.

(On that note: did anyone else think Jesus was kind of hot, or was that just me?)

I had a serious crush on Data when I was little. Even saw the crappy TNG movie just to see him.

I also thought Billy from Power Rangers was hot. Apparently I had a thing for nerds because Daniel Jackson (both versions) definitely kept me in my bunk years later. When Michael Shanks left SG1, I stopped watching.

I wanted to be friends with Alex Mack. She was so "girl next door" with her flannel shirts and hat.

The green chick from Star Trek TOS....I always wondered what color her nipples were...mmmmm

OOOooooo!! The Green Chick!
Definitely!

Mr. Spock. i was totally in love with him. that eyebrow thing drove me wild! when i met Leonard Nimoy a few years ago i did the full-on geek girl happy dance--he will always be sexy to me.

Oh, and Gul Dukat from DS9--but ONLY in his makeup

oh my god DeadBessie, i thought i was the only one. i can't even describe the things i wanted to do to Gul Dukat. same for Todd the Wraith on Stargate:Atlantis.

i have too many sci-fi crushes to name them all, but i can include just about everyone mentioned above--except William Shatner's Captain Kirk, he has always annoyed the frak outta me.

Oh, this takes me back.... in fact, so far back that I had to look him up to get the name right!

Mark Goddard - Major Don West in 'Lost in Space'. Yes, the one with Robbie the Robot and the weird chimp-with-stuck-on-ears alien. It aired from 1965 to 1968. He was cute.

Followed by Captain James T Kirk, because I never could resist that naughty-boy-twinkle in his eye, and I was totally captivated by his odd line deliveries. Who? Else? Talks? Like......that? Nobody, that's who.

Vasquez from Aliens. I wanted to date her AND be her. She is so bad-ass.

Believe me, pq, we're not the only ones who had the hots for Dukat. I remember surfing the web once and finding a whole site devoted to naked renderings of the Cardassian--which was too much even for me.

Fuck yeah we better be able to expand this to fantasy! I'm gettin' tired of all the sci-fi talk around here while ignoring the fantasy genre.

So with that said, Jareth from Labyrinth. Me and 10-gazillion other young girls, no doubt. David Bowie has a great deal to answer for.

DIdn't really develop crushes on sci-fi guys until my late 20s, so star trek was pretty much skipped. My first sci-fi crush...Marcus Cole.

Jiffyzen, I actually watched The Insatiable without realizing my dear Michael Biehn was in it. Film was total rubbish, but you know what? I would do Michael Biehn in that to. And in Planet Terror. And in anything he's ever done. Ever.

Clearly I have a Biehn sickness, and I'm ok with that!

I used to dream that Jonathan Taylor Thomas and I would meet, fall in love, and get married. And then I watched my first X-Files episode. After that, I dreamed that Jonathan Taylor Thomas and I would meet, fall in love...and then Fox Mulder would rush in, say "I don't think so, kid," and sweep me away so we could search for the truth together.

Dr. Sam Beckett (Scott Bakula) from Quantum Leap.

And yes: sharing the love for glassy Superman of Lois & Clark.

And then some love for Back to the Future's Marty. I was 8. And watching an 80s inspired future in the 90s was great.

As a four-year-old, I was aware of wanting to marry Picard, Will Riker, and Han Solo. It was a very chaste sort of longing.

As an eight-year-old, though, both Mulder and Scully gave me my first down-there tingles. Red Speedo FTW. I think you all know what I mean. I'm pretty sure my first sex dream, around age ten or so, involved a Mulder/Scully sandwich. Mmmmm. And then Krycek entered my world and my sexual development really took off.

Whoever mentioned X-Files being really formative in childhood was right on the money. To this day I automatically get the hots for tall, brooding nerdy types and short, brainy redheads. ESPECIALLY if they have a tendency to be abducted by aliens.
