So, am I the only one who was absolutely "hilarified" by this character??

I just loved her personality, not to mention the fact that I'm a huge fan of the actress who played her!

Let me know what you think!

Yeah she was the computer voice in all the series,appeared in the original,TNG and DS9.Is the executive producer of Andrometer(awsome show)and was married to the late but great Gene Roddenberry!
I LOVED her character Lwaxana Troi,she was a stunning looking lady,a real babe for her age!
I really liked the episode in DS9 when her and Odo got stuck in the turbo lift.He has to 'go out of shape' every 11 or 12 hrs,and had to do it in front of her!She was so kind to him,when he mentioned that he hates partys because he has to entertain everybody!Change into stuff to amuse people!
She said that the next party she has will be just for him!
She took off her wig to show him she isnt perfect either!
A great episode,a great actor,a beautiful lady!

I agree 100% with you!

I loved the ep you mentioned, too! And "Cost of Living," where she's trying to cheer Alexander up by taking him to the Holodeck......and she's supposed to get married to this guy she's never met before...lol....

She's such an awesome actress, brilliant and beautiful.....

In the episode with Alexander she is going to marry a guy that she has only just met.But her Betazoid tradition is to be married in the nude!
He is totally opposed to the idea.
In the end she turns up to the wedding nude and he storms off!
Loved that episode!!!
She was always embaracing Picard,insisting that he had the hots for her!
I thought her character really spiced the shows up!

She was good. I liked her character in most of the storylines but sometimes the writers tried to make her too funny. Then she wasn't funny at all.

I thought she was HILARIOUS! :p I love it when she'd talk to the computer on the Enterprise and knock on it and then talk to "herself." LOL. That is awesome.

I've seen the Episode of her and Odo in the lift and that's a good episode. A kind of insight to her character.

And I haven't seen the episode in its entirety when she has to marry that guy, but I've seen the ending and that was hilarious too!

She was wonderful. I love how Picard always got so frustrated when she was around. And that episode where they left her in the holodeck romancing some poor hologram until she realized why she couldn't read his mind...

The one where Picard had to 'fight' for Lwaxana to win her back from the Ferengi 'Damon Tog'.His Shakespear classical training came in handy as he turned the speeches on!
Loved that episode too!

She was great. Especially with Odo...and she really showed that she was a deeper character in the TNG ep "Half Life." Loved her a lot. And Majel did a phenomenal job acting her. So funny!

Just watched TNG on Foxtel,they had the episode with the guy who was going back to his home planet to die.Their custom was that when you reach 60 you have to commit suicide with friends and family around as a big celebration!
She fell in love with him and didnt want him to die.It was a great episode showing her brilliant acting abilities again!

Oh yeah! I just saw that episode the other day! I was laughing so hard! The looks on Riker's, Worf's, and Data's faces were priceless. I just love how she came over and sat in his lap. That was also the same episode where Troi got mad because she kept calling her "Little One." I just loved how she'd just come on and Picard would be like...Uh, I'm not here! HIDE ME! I never saw the episode with her on DS9 with Odo. Which episode and which season was that? She is a great actress, but I didn't know that she was also the one who did the voice as the main computer. I just never made the connection. I always thought she had such pretty eyes though.
