Girl power...go Captain Uhura!
9 April 2015
This story is obviously inspired by the Germanic myth of the Lorelei--sexy sirens who lure in ships to their deaths. There's even a statue to this supposed siren on the Rhine River in Germany. There also is a similarity to the old myth about the lotus eaters-- so whoever wrote this episode was obviously inspired by these ancient stories.

The Enterprise nears a planet peopled by women who somehow exude sexiness. The men, even Spock, are disabled by this and the women suck away the life juices of the men--and the guys seem oblivious to it. So, it's up to the girls of Enterprise, led by Captain Uhura, to kick butt and stop these evil she-vixens.

If you think about it, this episode seems an awful lot like a porno film minus the sex! It's mildly entertaining but, as usual, the animation is pure crap--the absolute nadir of 1970s TV animation.
