What is your favourite Extra Terrestrial?

Now for something on a lighter note.....

You are peering into space with your scope one night and saw something rather unusual.... a strange looking interstellar craft that is unlike anything you have seen on earth. Through the er... "cockpit" window you just make out the shape and detail of the xenomorph that is piloting the craft and it looks like:

for me it would have to be the Jawas from star Wars. I was fascinated with the aliens in Stars Wars since I was 3 years old! Just Imagine these little cloak desert dwellers piloting a spaceship across our night skies! What a sight to behold!

err... okay, I goto get back to work, I am in my office watching the work pile up while I post these nonsensical stuff in the forums....

But what would your alien be and why?

From Battlestar Galactica, a Cylon copy of myself just to put some confusion around my household. I'm not nasty so the copy would be friendly.

Haha,

Thats funny... gee... Battlestar Galetica... thats like going back 20+ years!

gee do you guys realise that most ETs depicted in movies are unfriendly types?

Very few movies ever show aliens as friendly..... not a box office idea I suppose....

The very nice lady in Farscape with the white skin (can't remember her name), Xev Bellringer (definately), 7 of 9, Dax, T'Pol, and the holographic Doctor from Star Trek to keep them all healthy (and coz he can be turned off!)

Now that's a crew!!!

Other than the hot babes already mentioned....

Uncle Martin or Mork.

Definitely not the Borg, Daleks, Cybermen or anything that excretes large amounts of slime.

Mork from Ork. LOL
But would love to have Ford Prefect and Zaphod Beeblebrox over for a couple of pan galactic gargle blasters.
You're all invited.

My vote is the hot blonde cyborg "Number 6" http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1065454/ from the new Battlestar Galactica series. Thats one alien that I would have no complaints being abducted by
