Hunk Friday: William T. Riker, my ultimate "Number One"
What's cookin', good lookin'?
Hi, my name is Cindy! In lengi's absence, I'm blogging all the way from the Great White North (a.k.a. Canada) about my guiltiest pleasure: Star Trek: The Next Generation and my favourite outer space hunk, Commander William T. Riker.
Star Trek: TNG is one of those shows you learn to love. Once you've gotten past the cultural hang-ups, what you find is a future world that is promising and full of able-bodied men ready to go where no man has gone before. And in the thick of it all is Commander Riker - bold, brash and willing to break the rules for the greater good.
It's sexytime.
I've always gravitated towards the bad boy that plays on the side of the good guys. With a confident swagger and the ability to speak his mind regardless of the consequences, Commander Riker has just enough arrogance to get my attention. He's like the George Clooney of interstellar travel!
Whether it's fighting for what's right alongside Captain Picard or unwinding with a drink at Ten Forward with the USS Enterprise-D bridge crew, Riker always keeps it spicy. If the Star Fleet uniform dress code allowed for it, you'd better bet Riker would be wearing one made of leather.
So when Holodecks finally become a reality, my holo-program will feature Riker picking me up on his motorcycle for a night on the town. Wait, this is the future right? Make that a hover-cycle.

Delving into the mind of a female trekky. FASCINATING!
I think Riker's grin, covered in that sexy man beard, is the real seller for me.
Stocky Dwarf and I were just talking about Star Trek this morning, unaware that this was our hunk o' the day. Congrats on being our first guest blogger Cindy!

Thanks guys! It was my pleasure to guest blog!
I think the bearded Riker is my favourite. I think he was clean shaven in the first season of TNG and he really didn't make a mark or earn any favours from the Captain. But once he started getting serious about his career, he started getting serious about the beard. In this case, the beard defines the man - just like Magnum P.I. Rugged!
Way to usher in the Next Generation of hunks, har! You're the best guest blogger a girl could ask for, Cindy!
I like the speculation that Riker's outfit would be leather, and it begs the question - what would the rest of them be wearing, given the choice? I personally think Picard would quite enjoy something in velvet - THE FABRIC OF ROYALTY.
Oooh. Maybe a little crushed Velvet for the captain? A little glitter for Geordi, and some loose fitting breatheable fabrics for Worf. I wonder what Data would wear?
I daresay something tight and shiny - maybe some satin hot pants and a shiny shirt to offset his porcelain complexion?
I just watched Star Trek Insurrection this weekend, and you can get both bearded and non-bearded Riker..... How 'bout that!
The rest of the movie is bad, and I can't believe F Murray Abraham went from Salieri to wrinkle face - hope the pay was good.
so one question..... if you put Jean Luc Picard in crushed velvet, would George Costanza watch ST:TNG religiously???
