Ms Fanservice / Live-Action TV

"Cut right up to the censor limit."

Examples of Ms. Fanservice in live-action televison.

---

Creator Examples

• Cooking Channel: Nadia G, host of Bitchin' Kitchen, who combines this with being a snarky Cloud Cuckoolander. The show also includes Hans, who is only on the show to be Mr. Fanservice.
• Food Network: Giada De Laurentis, granddaughter of Dino De Laurentis. Her rather largish head, large eyes, usual wardrobe (with frequent closeups of cleavage) and even genkish personality have some even call her as close to a real-life anime girl as you're going to get.
• Jennifer Love Hewitt: She plays this sort of character in Ghost Whisperer and later The Client List.
• Joss Whedon: The man has a very well-deserved reputation for creating strong female characters who aren't just there for Fanservice, but that doesn't mean he doesn't provide plenty of fanservice anyway.
  • Dollhouse: All of the dolls in the Dollhouse. It's worth mentioning that this is an important part of the plot, and not a case of "let's throw in some scantily clad dames to keep the guys watching."
    • Echo (Eliza Dushku). Most of her imprints play up her sex appeal, she even turned up in a dominatrix outfit in one episode.
    • Sierra (Dichen Lachman) is gorgeous and has most of the focus in the many Shower Scenes in the Dollhouse co-ed shower, to the point she manages to get Victor to have a "Man Reaction"
  • Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: This show does an excellent job of appealing to all demographics, with a hot fanservice-y male or female for practically any taste.
    • Skye/Daisy (Chloe Bennet) is established as one early in the show, provides the female eye candy in the main cast. Episode 3 "The Asset" has a scene where she plunges into a pool, already wearing a tight, red dress that then gets soaking wet and even more clingy and then she starts running while barefoot. And she has a bra and panties scene in the very next episode.) In the first episode of Season 3, she wears a cleavage-baring tank top for an interrogation with Joey and is taken to wearing a Spy Catsuit in the field.. Season 4 opens with a lot of close up of shots of her body as she's getting dressed, a shot that contributed to that episode's TV-14 rating. Once she goes back to wearing her Spy Catsuit, she typically unzips the top down to where the band of her bra is. This is taken Up to Eleven in Season 6 in a simulation in the Framework Deke Shaw designed for his fantasies.
    • Melinda (Ming-Na Wen) and her Spy Catsuit. She doesn't own anything but skin-tight leather/lycra bodysuits. She also has her fair share of fan-servicey moments, like performing Tai Chi in "The Hub", showing her bare back in a post-sex scene with Ward in "Repairs" and two Shower Scenes in "Melinda."
    • For those more into the sexy scientist look, nothing beats Jemma Simmons (Elizabeth Henstridge) in a labcoat.
    • Season 4 "The Ghost", introduces Aida (Mallory Jansen) a Ridiculously Human and gorgeous Robot Girl who is introduced to both the audience and Fitz while completely nude since she did not yet had the concept of a nudity taboo. She also wears many other flattering outfits, as well as being Naked on Arrival again in "Farewell, Cruel World! after she builds organic body for her, with nudity both times displayed with Shoulders-Up Nudity and Toplessness from the Back.
  • Firefly:
    • Inara (Morena Baccarin), a Hooker with a Heart of Gold with lots of sexy companionship-esque scenes, habitually dresses in Pimped Out Dresses and tends to 'pose' more than the other characters. In the very first episode she has scene showing her having sex with a client as well as having a sponge bath with plenty of Male Gaze and Toplessness from the Back.
    • Zoe (Gina Torres). Although her clothing shows very little skin, it's practically painted on and involves plenty of leather, combined with the fact that she's an Amazonian Beauty.
    • River (Summer Glau). Though all of the other female cast members appeared in either skimpy outfits or partially naked, the only one to go onscreen completely in the buff was River. And despite the fact that for the rest of the series she went around in full-body dresses, there's more than a few well-placed shots of her bare feet.
    • And Kaylee (Jewel Staite), especially when eating strawberries.
  • Buffyverse:
    • Buffy's Season 5 Big Bad, Glory (Clare Kramer, is definitely a Ms. Fanservice. Between the attention paid to her outfits, the revealingness of those outfits, shots of her Toplessness from the Back changing (right in front of Dawn, no less), the way she constantly invaded everyone's personal space, and shots of her bathing while showing off her legs.
    • Faith (Eliza Dushku). Several characters take note of how attractive she is, and her dress style favors leather pants and low-cut tops with prominent cleavage. After her Heel–Face Turn she starts to dress more modestly. She's also constantly acts like The Tease as well as being very promiscuous.
    • Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter), even more so in Angel. She's hot and she knows it. With her Buxom Beauty Standard figure she stands out among her more petite female co-stars like Buffy, Willow and Fred, and is a major Dude Magnet due to it. When Angel gives her a necklace, she proudly talks of how it emphasizes her breasts.
      Cordelia: You know you were all thinking it.
    • Fred occasionally then takes Illyria over who not goes naked at one point but wears a skin-tight outfit the rest of the time.
    • Nina, in fact one of the few female character to appear completely naked, with only one arm to barely cover her nipples.
• News Broadcasts: A great many female anchors and reporters seem to fit this trope, particularly on local and cable news and in sports or weather reports. Just do a Web search for "newsbabes" sometime to discover the large, devoted, and well-nigh obsessive following some of these women generate among male viewers. Fox News, in particular, is notorious for this.
  • More specifically, a lot of news shows seem expressly set up to show off their female anchors' shapely gams. By having them sit higher than the desk, for example. Or beside the desk. Or behind a glass desk. Or with no desk at all. And, of course, by making sure they wear short skirts (never pants) as often as possible. This seems to have been a particular obsession for late, longtime Fox News president Roger Ailes.
• Nickelodeon: As with Disney but slightly more blatant about it. Crowning Examples: Jennette McCurdy and the entire female cast of Victorious (with particular mention of Ariana Grande).
• Sarah Shahi was once an NFL cheerleader, has won numerous beauty competitions, was Miss Fort Worth USA, is frequent ranked one of the most gorgeous women in the world, and willingly will show nudity. Thus she's played many examples with varying degrees of nudity, sex scenes, skimpy clothes and suggestiveness (see e.g. The L Word, Life, Fairly Legal, Person of Interest, Sex/Life).
• Sporting Events: Anyone who's watched sports telecasts over the last couple decades will notice that the female hosts and sideline/dugout/courtside/rinkside/pitch reporters are almost invariably easy-on-the-eyes types.
• Talk Shows: Female guests, particularly on late-night entertainment shows, tend to be presented in this manner, as parodied in this sketch from Inside Amy Schumer.
• Univision: Pick a show on this network. Any of them. 99 out of 100 times, they'll have one. Even funnier if said Ms Fanservice is actively aware of it. Spanish-language television, in general (in the United States and abroad), invokes this trope – owing to the notion that Latina women are widely considered to be one of the sexiest (if not, the sexiest) nationality of females in the world. Univision and Telemundo once served as fanservice havens (particularly during the 2000s), though since the beginning of The New '10s, they've drawn this down to some extent.
  • Both Univision and Telemundo had dance party series that aired on Saturdays: Caliente and Descontrol both featured equal opportunity fanservice, justified as most episodes of both series were set on beaches around the country. Caliente ran on Univision from 1996 to 2005, and in addition to the music/dance segments, featured a segment called Chica Caliente, featuring a profile of a model (with an interview with said model that is narrated over much of the segment) who is clad in only a bikini for most of the segment. Telemundo aired Descontrol from 2003 to 2012, which had female hosts unlike the similar Univision series who were usually clad in bikinis themselves (they became the fanservice too because of it, the fact that they are buxom didn't hurt, either); it was popular enough to feature a spinoff morning show that ran until its cancellation which was basically repurposed music video/live performance/dance segments without the hosted segments. Some episodes of Descontrol were set on a ranch, with dancers clad in western attire; some of the female dancers did wear midriff-bearing tied and crop tops in these episodes, though, keeping the fanservice in to some degree.
  • Telemundo's sports magazine series Ritmo Deportivo has long featured a segment called "Mamaza de la Semana," profiling swimsuit models; the models featured originally were participants in Hawaiian Tropic and Hooters swimsuit pageants, the Ujena Bikini Jam (all three events were also covered in certain episodes of the series until 2009) and other professional swimsuit models. After 2009, however, the swimsuit models profiled were largely just professional models.
  • Republica Deportiva features three models (known as the "Senadoras") who actively participate in each episode, rather than just being there in a non-speaking for the sole purpose of being the fanservice. Originally, their outfits bore cleavage, midriff and legs; unfortunately for the male fanbase, the show's 2010 format revamp downplayed the fanservice by just putting them in tight clothes and only sometimes had them appear in short skirts. Some episodes also have featured segments profiling one of the Senadoras behind the scenes of a swimsuit calendar photoshoot they participated in. The series once featured an annual pageant called "Senorita Republica Deportiva" (a cross between Miss USA and the Hooters International Swimsuit Pageant, the latter having something very much in common with Republica Deportiva's pageant).
  • Estrella TV, a network which launched in 2009 and was formed out of Liberman Broadcasting's Spanish-language independent stations, seems to be the current go-to network for fanservice:
    • The variety series Estudio 2 is full of Ms. Fanservices: co-host Gabby Ramirez◊ was once the major Ms. Fanservice of the show, often seen wearing dresses that highlighted her large bustline and appeared in sketches Once per Episode playing a character named Tatiana, a bed-hopping mistress clad in wigs (mostly bobbed-cut ones, with colors only achievable by hair dye) and lingerie. Hernandez's role as the fanservice ended in the 2012 season (she left the following year), when she got pregnant (made blatantly obvious as camera angles were framed to hide her expanding belly), resulting in her participation in sketches being reduced to just one that season, in which her character was shown to be with child; another well-built actress became the fanservice in sketches from then on). The series also features dancers on three sections of the stage (main, left and right) – the main stage dancers are clad in only string bikinis and high heels, while other dancers are clad a little more conservatively (used extremely loosely) in bra-like tops that don't expose too much cleavage but do display midriff, short skirts and underwear (although a few episodes featured guest side-stage dancers appearing in bikinis). The series makes a point to cut to shots of the models/dancers, and the show's hosts for that matter, every few seconds to the point where you forget (if you even cared in the first place) that there is a music act performing; the bikini-clad models also appear during the karaoke game "Machete";^note In which contestants sing for a cash prize; the contestants are ruled on their singing ability by a little person clad in various costumes from Elvis Presley to a devil (played by Arturo Gil◊), either getting dumped with goo or taken down by miniature luchadors if they're ruled to be terrible or getting a kiss by an overweight woman if they're ruled as a good singer, if the contestant is rewarded as a good singer in that round, the audience gets treated to the bikini dancers jumping up and down to the congratulatory song (though there isn't much bouncing involved as you would think). If two or more contestants make it past that round, once the audience votes for a winner of the cash, the models then meet the contestant and have them fetch the bills from their bikinis (set to stripper music, no less!).
    • In a rarity for a game show, A Que No te Puedes, features quite a bit of fanservice. The series has a Family Feud-meets-Double Dare (1986) format (but with conventional stunt challenges and terror stunts instead of messy stunts) and started out with real contestants; from the get-go though, it had dancers dressed in the same manner as the stage left and right dancers on Estudio 2. When the format changed to feature Latin celebrities and models instead of real people, the show began to feature occasional episodes with teams of models: either clad in tight dresses, lingerie and bikinis. If the teams feature models in lingerie or bikinis, the host will bring them out from behind their podium and have them dance to a pop song. Since the show's format change, model Alejandra Pinzon◊ has served as one of the three judges ruling on whether the contestants completed their stunt; in said episodes featuring bikini models, Pinzon will wear a bikini herself (sometimes taking off another outfit to unveil it), revealing her very toned frame.
    • The variety series El Show de Lagramita y Costel^note Whose hosts portray father and son clowns also features models dressed similar to those in Estudio 2 and A Que No te Puedes. Like with Estudio 2, it has two models who wear outfits different from those worn by the others: in this case, two models often accompanying Lagramita and Costel wear black masks and jumpsuits with plunging necklines exposing their bikini tops and cleavage. One of these models (which sometimes differ depending on the episode) appears in sketches that appear twice an episode featuring the hosts and several others attending school.^note Adults playing schoolchildren is a fairly common trope in Spanish language television, most visibly used and probably popularized by Cero en Conducta. The model appearing in the sketch (most commonly Leila Ciancanglini◊, though this changes sometimes depending on the episode) wears a very sexy school girl outfit consisting of a bra and panties, dangerously short plaid skirt, and a midriff/cleavage bearing tied plaid shirt.
    • Several of the characters in Los Chuperamigos are vagabonds; there are some that aren't, including that show's fanservice girl (played by Elena Rojas, whose ample bust is actually given a tongue-in-cheek additional credit, "Elena Rojas y sus 2 melones"!)^note Even those who are incredibly bad at speaking Spanish may get that this translates to "Elena Rojas and her two melons" in English..
  • One of the few telenovela examples is the Venezuelan soap La Marca del Deseo, in which four of its five main protagonists put on some degree of fanservice in (almost) every episode, except for Maria Canela (played by Heydi Bermudez◊, whose character is dressed conservatively in dresses that don't display more than the lower half of her legs, ^note Bermudez does appear in a bathing suit, a two-piece, in the opening titles.). Lead protagonist Maria Valentina (played by Stephanie Cayo◊) barely underqualifies as she mainly wears sundresses with short sleeves but no shoulders; three of the other leads – Maria Soledad (played by Mimi Morales◊), Maria Alegria (María Elisa Camargo) and Maria Claridad (Sara Corrales◊), however are shown in outfits that show off their well-built physiques. Almost every outfit Maria Soledad wears is a top tied to show midriff, Maria Claridad serves as a fanservice until she becomes pregnant In-Universe towards the end of the series; Maria Alegria wears very revealing outfits throughout almost the entire show (both in her nightclub music act and elsewhere), the actress who plays her is also a model, and it shows (in fact, if one does a Google search for Maria Elisa Camargo, it's easy to see why she's the one most often seen in revealing attire). The significant amount of fanservice is justified given the show is set in a beach community in a country located south of the Equator that has a tropical climate, but unless you watch the entire series, you do wonder a bit if they have any conservative outfits. Very few of the other female characters who are of similar ages to the main characters play up the fanservice in the show.
• The Weather Channel: Even this channel does this with their forecasters. Never has learning you're about to get 14 inches of snow dumped on you been so pleasant to watch.

Show Examples

• 24: Damsel Scrappy Kim Bauer (Elisha Cuthbert), a glowing example of the Flat Character variant if ever there was one. However, for the first season, Nina and Mandy showed more flesh.
• 30 Rock: Cerie (Katrina Bowden) seems to be a deliberate contrast to the bright, intelligent, attractive though slovenly and neurotic main character.
• The 100: Octavia (Marie Avgeropoulos) established her fanservice credentials in the first episode by stripping down to panties and crop top t-shirt and diving into the first body of water they found.
• Alias: Sydney Bristow (Jennifer Garner). The show puts her in a lot of fanservicey situations or revealing outfits and costumes. Some examples:
  • In "The Counteragent", Sydney has to take a Decontamination Shower after Sark exposes her to ammonia fluorochloride. Is also more played for fanservice than usual, with a pan up shot of her naked body getting hosed, with either Scenery Censor or Hand-or-Object Underwear preserving Sydney's modesty.
  • In "Double Agent", Sydney is trying to attract a mark via Show Some Leg, which she does while in a swimming pool, doing Slow Motion Sexy Surfacing Shot in a tiny blue bikini with both her mark and the camera slowly pans up and down her body and seductively walks past him while still dripping wet.
  • In "Repercussions", an undercover Sydney is searching the Villain of the Week room for a biological germ when she hears him coming into the room. She quickly takes off all her clothes and puts them in a trail leading to the shower. When he comes in he finds her showering he gets too distracted by her Sexy Silhouette and then her in a Modesty Towel to really question why she's in his room.
• Allegiance (2015): Natalie O'Connor (Margarita Levieva), particularly the scene where she seduces someone while wearing a Sexy Backless Outfit in the episode "Tipping Point."
• 'Allo 'Allo!: Role arguably shared between Yvette (Vicki Michelle) and Helga (Kim Hartman). Both can be expected to show off their feminine charms at least once an episode. Some scenes focuse on their legs in stockings. Others have them stripping down to their underwear or wearing Sexy Whatever Outfit. Helga in particular often finds herself in her underwear more often than one would consider necessary for plot reasons.
• American Gods (2017): Fittingly enough, as a love goddess Bilquis is shown nude more than any other character and also has the most explicit sex scenes, portrayed by a good-looking actress. It veers into fan disservice though since she eats her lovers at the end... with her vagina (though they survive in a happy pocket dimension).
• American Horror Story:
  • American Horror Story: Murder House: Young Moira (Alexandra Breckenridge). Hot redhead in an abbreviated French Maid Outfit complete with stockings and garter belt.
  • American Horror Story: Asylum: Grace (Lizzie Brocheré) spends a lot of time being shown naked halfway through the season, but it comes across more as creepy than sexy, given that she was supposed to be dead at the time, and was actually being abducted and tested by aliens.
  • American Horror Story: Coven: Madison Montgomery (Emma Roberts) and Kaylee (Alexandra Breckenridge). The former frequently wears outfits that accentuate her legs, while the latter is a hot redhead (played by the same actress who did Young Moira even!) who has a sex scene.
• American Idol:
  • This show came into this trope immediately with season one's Ryan Starr and season two's Kimberly Caldwell. Many others came along the way:
  • Season 3: Jasmine Trias and Camile Velasco]]
  • Season 4: Carrie Underwood and Mikalah Gordon
  • Season 5: Katharine Mcphee (who's continued her good work in this field on Smash and to a lesser extent on Scorpion) and Kellie Pickler
  • Season 6: Haley Scarnato
  • Season 7: Kristy Lee Cook, Syesha Mercado and Carly Smithson
  • Season 8: Allison Iraheta and Megan Joy, but most of all Bikini Girl
  • Season 9: Siobhan Magnus
  • Season 10: Haley Reinhart and Pia Toscano Thia Megia
  • Season 11: Skylar Laine, Hollie Cavanagh and Shannon Magrane
  • Season 12: Angie Miller
  • Season 13: Jessica Meuse (pink hair) and Malaya Watson
  • Season 14: Joey Cook, Adanna and Maddie Waker.
• Arrow:
  • Thea in her revealing school uniform. She dips back into this territory in Season 3 once she Took a Level in Badass, with all her outfits showing off her flawlessly toned stomach.
  • Laurel's outfits_particularly her evening wear_ tend to fall into this territory. Less so in Season 2 as her drug habit takes a toll on her body.
  • Felicity's dress in "Dodger" with the lingering shots of her legs. And throughout Season 2, her outfits become more flattering, often incorporating a Cleavage Window. In "Time of Death", she wears spendex and is briefly shown in her underwear.
  • Helena's outfits are often tight-fitting.
  • Sara Lance as Canary and her costume fit. Zigzagged since although she's had a few appearances in less clothing, which highlight her body and her especially athletic physique, there are instances where this is subverted by the very large and visible scars on her back (see Topless From The Back, for example).
• Ashes to Ashes (2008): Detective Inspector Alex Drake (Keeley Hawes). Where does one even begin? The dress that gets her mistaken for a hooker in the pilot? The men's shirt she's sporting for the rest of the episode? The Catwoman costume, complete with corset, from the party scene in 1.03? Stripping down to her bra in 1.04? Her love of Combat Stilettos (usually in boot form)? Hooker outfit #2? The constant, lingering shots of her ass in tight dresses/pants?
• Attack of the Show!:
  • Olivia Munn is frequently shown wearing revealing outfits and Fanservice Costumes such as Wonder Woman. In one episode, she wore a French Maid Outfit and jumped into a vat of pudding. One segment Clark expressed his discomfort with how she lounges around in the altogether, not caring how uncomfortable it makes him. In his defense, she was also clipping her toenails at the time.
  • Substitute host Carrie Keegan appears in skits dressed as Power Girl.
• Babylon Berlin: Charlotte is quite attractive, and gets a number of scenes in revealing outfits or topless working at the night club.
• Babylon 5: The first season has Adira Tyree (Fabiana Udenio), who is on multiple occasions seen wearing form-fitting or revealing clothing in the one episode she figures in.
• Batman (1966): Yvonne Craig as Batgirl was added in the third season precisely as a Ratings Stunt.
• Battlestar Galactica (2003):
  • Generally, of the seven primary types of Cylon, the woman Cylons are all extremely attractive. The male Cylons are all unremarkable and pedestrian. This holds true as well among the Final Five; even Helen Tigh is attractive for her age. The men, save for Anders, are fairly schlubby. In addition to this, Cylons have no nudity taboo when they are not masquerading as humans. We get glimpses (and in some cases more than glimpses) of many naked Cylons onboard their Basestars.
  • The number six Cylon model serves this function both In-Universe and to the audience. With one or two exceptions, the number sixes seem to exist to radiate sex and use seduction as a weapon. This is especially true for the individual known as Caprica Six, who has many sex scenes and nude scenes, not always serving any purpose for the plot. Funnily enough, the producers flat out admitted that this is why they cast model Tricia Helfer, who had barely any acting experience, and came to be very surprised when she actually turned out to be an extremely talented actress.
  • The Number Eights (Grace Park) also get their fair share of nudity and sex scenes.
• Baywatch: Any female character. They mostly wore swimwear and were wet almost constantly. One has to give props to Pamela Anderson, who even while surrounded by supermodel castmates, still managed to stand out as the Ms. Fanservice.
• Being Mary Jane: The title character in this BET drama is a successful, intelligent TV news host. Who loses no opportunity to demonstrate that Gabrielle Union is just as hot now as when she was in Bring It On (summed up in one scene where she's asked her niece Niecy over to help with her hair... and for some reason feels the need to get it wet beforehand by stripping down to her underwear and going for a swim).
• Being Human (US):
  • Sally is beautiful to begin with, but really looks good in certain revealing clothing.
  • The camera very deliberately pans over Nora's naked, face-down body the night after she transforms.
• Better Things: Max, who's a very beautiful girl, is shown in several scenes wearing only her underwear or a bikini, along with her equally good-looking female friends.
• Betty: Honeybear usually only has pasties over her nipples and she goes around with an open shirt. She also gets a threesome with two women, though it's not explicit.
• The Big Bang Theory:
  • Penny (Kaley Cuoco) is one fan-serving appearance. Cute blonde with hot body wearing very revealing clothes. Her regular attire in the first two seasons was low-cut tank tops and short shorts.
  • Bernadette (Melissa Rauch) has also fulfilled this role, with her work uniform in her early appearances accentuating her bosom and bedtime lingerie not leaving much to the imagination.
  • And then there was Sheldon's Girl of the Week scientist friend Elizabeth (Judy Greer) that was a nymphomaniac Sex Goddess that slept with both Leonard and Raj.
• Blake's 7:
  • Pretty much every female character, in particular Servalan and Dayna... well, the original trope quote was right in that the former generally did not wear a bra.
  • Servalan was originally written as male, became female and ended up being massively sexy. Jacqueline Pearce commented that teenage boys probably self-pleasured themselves over her.
• Blindspotting:
  • Trish, while at home, likes to walk around with only a sparse top and panties. She is quite pretty, and works as an exotic dancer. Her mother and Ashley get annoyed by this, and Trish is only restrained from going walking around fully nude due to their objections.
  • Her friend (and fellow exotic dancer) Jacquie is similarly attractive and similarly scantily clad, even being seen fully nude in the first episode.
• Blood Drive: Grace D'Argento (Christina Ochoa) is a gorgeous athletic brunette who has a fondness for midriff-baring Action Girl tank tops. She also has a Bathtub Scene where she tries to seduce her Love Interest into some Sex for Solace by standing up in the tub in front of him with Toplessness from the Back and Shoulders-Up Nudity barely concealing her naughty bits.
• Boardwalk Empire: A good chunk of the female cast of this show end up de-robed at some point. Lucy Danziger (Paz De La Huerta) spends Season 1 constantly finding new reasons to take her clothes off.
• Boy Meets World: Rachel (Maitland Ward) served this purpose in her early appearances, where she would often wander around in a tiny bathrobe or really tight fitting shirts. Her role as this diminished after the whole "two guy reacting to having a hot girl as a roommate" plotline wore thin and the writers had to give the character something else to do.
• The Boys (2019):
  • Done to Starlight (Erin Moriarty) in-universe: she starts off in a fairly-conservative Minidress of Power, but after joining the Seven, Vought forces her to wear a Stripperiffic leotard with plunging neckline and thigh-high boots, specifically to invoke this trope and appeal to the masses.
  • Queen Maeve (Dominique McElligott) also qualifies, wearing a Chainmail Bikini and short leather skirt, also with thigh-high boots. Of course, given that she's a Wonder Woman Wannabe, this is hardly surprising. One scene in Season 2 also has her emerging from a shower in a Modesty Towel, which emphasizes that her ample bust isn't just the costume.
• Brave New World: Jessica Brown Findlay as Lenina appears having sex and or nude several times.
• The Cape: More than half the scenes involving Orwell (Summer Glau) have her in one tight outfit or skirt or another set of revealing clothes.
• Caprica: Zoe (Alessandra Torresani) in all her incarnations. Just look at some of the promotional posters◊. Also includes a great deal of unintentional fan service due to her being a dead Robot Girl. Made a little bit creepy by the fact that the character is somewhere between 15 and 16. On the other hand, her actress was 22 at the time.
• Castle:
  • Detective Kate Beckett (Stana Katic) from the New York Police Department. She nearly always wears somewhat tight pants and shirts, she has twice worn stunning dresses that left good old Richard Castle stunned... and then there was the one time she stripped down to her red undergarments covered only with a jacket and long heels. Not to mention that she worked as a model once, possesses a tight black leather motorcycle jacket and seems to have somewhat kinky bedroom taste. In one episode, she appeared in a bikini doing a Sexy Surfacing Shot in slow motion while everyone around couldn't help but stare.
  • Done infrequently but at least once a season with Alexis Castle. She regularly appeared in early seasons in abnormally short (secular) school girl skirts; her official publicity photo for years featured Grade B Zettai Ryouiki. At one point, a plot contrivance put her in a cheerleader uniform despite not being a cheerleader. For season 5, her photo puts her in a tight micro-mini dress, and "The Final Frontier" has her in an "alien assassin" costume that consists of a bikini, body paint, and feathers. In "PhDead", she attends a masquerade party wearing a very revealing angel costume and a blond wig. Turned Up to Eleven in Season 8, as she's turned into a Sexy Secretary for her father's PI business.
• CASUAL+Y:
  • Has a few women who fit this trope, but it's almost similar to Nurse Jackie the ways that the show it off.
  • Most notable is Kath, a blonde nurse who has a Fandom, which is surprising, considering she is a background character, and a Flat Character. She's also an example of The Voiceless, but that might be an Ass Pull by the writers. Some fans even consider her an Expy of Jackie "Nurse Jackie" Peyton from Nurse Jackie.
• Charmed: All four sisters constantly ends up in a Fanservice Costumes and Sexy Whatever Outfit as part of the plot and noticeable have a preference for wearing very low-cut and/or form-fitting tops. But Prue (Shannen Doherty), and Phoebe (Alyssa Milano) show the most skin. Lampshaded by the former:
  Whitelighter: That means no more braless strapless fearless attire!
  Prue: Okay, but then I have nothing to wear.
• Chuck:
  • Sarah (Yvonne Strahovski) provides most of the overt fanservice (Proof). She herself lampshades her role as this in a fifth-season episode. When Casey balks at wearing a speedo on a mission, she calls him out on how many skimpy and sexy outfits she's had to wear on missions over the course of the show, even slipping in one example that was actually worn off-duty for Chuck's (and the audience's) benefit.
  • Nearly every female Guest Star on Chuck could also apply.
    • Carina (Mini Andén), who strips down to her underwear or swimsuits in pretty much every episode she appears in and Sleeps in the Nude beside Morgan just to torment him.
    • Jill (Jordana Brewster), who also gets down to her underwear.
    • Alex Forrest (Tricia Helfer) in a stripper outfit.
    • Hannah (Kristin Kreuk) wrapped in a towel and nothing else.
    • Sofia Stepanova (Karolína Kurková) in nothing and nothing else, using Chuck as a human shield after he interrupted her shower.
• Community:
  • Annie Edison, who while the most innocent of the characters, is also played by Alison Brie. Annie has worn a Sexy Santa Dress, has gotten into a Cat Fight in the midst of an oil spill and rocks as close as you can to Navel-Deep Neckline on network TV while running down hallways in slow motion. Considering that this started happening after Alison Brie's popularity exploded and the show creator explicitly stated he writes scenes that will be good for gifs, this might be the purest example of Ms. Fanservice out there. Funnily enough, she didn't start out this way ("Annie's pretty young, we try not to sexualize her"), but she grows into it over time. By the end of the second season, she's spending entire episodes in Stripperiffic gunslinger outfits.
  • The original romantic lead of the show, Britta Perry (Gillian Jacobs) applies as well. She's actually shown more skin than Annie, there's a scene of her wearing black lingerie post-coitus and her regular wardrobe consists of ridiculously tight jeans and leather jackets.
  • Of course, their sexualization is a little strange, as Britta is a hardcore feminist and Annie is a naive and driven student, two personality traits that don't traditionally lend themselves to rampant sexualization. They get into a fight lampshading this trend. So let's put their sexualization at half and half on the Watsonian versus Doylist spectrum (The characters, despite being independent women also want and desire male attention, and the producers have two very attractive women on the cast, so you should probably sex them up a little bit).
• Continuum:
  • Kiera (Rachel Nichols) spends a lot of time in her form-fitting catsuit. She also strips down to her underwear and stares at herself in the mirror in the series premiere. Mostly, though, she stays pretty well-clothed.
  • Emily (Magda Apanowicz), particularly in "Second Degree".
  • Also played straight with a full-body nude shot (from behind) of Garza (Luvia Petersen) in "Second Listen."
• Control Z: All of the girls in the show are good-looking, which many show off with revealing clothes. Most specifically:
  • Sofía's two nude scenes while having sex with the good-looking Raúl in the first two seasons.
  • To a lesser extent, María, when she is revealed as the Honey Bunny in a very revealing black outfit.
• Conversations with Friends: Frances is a pretty young woman who's shown in revealing swimsuits when visiting the beach and while having sex with Nick, when she's often seen topless (along with once afterward). To a lesser extent, Bobbi (who's also good-looking) is shown too in swimsuits and revealing clothes, with one sex scene where she's topless as well.
• Counterpart (2018): Baldwin's quite pretty, in spite of the scar on her face, and also gets the most nudity or sex scenes of any character. It seems she doesn't wear bras, as shown when she goes topless multiple times before having sex or getting intimate with other women (being a Butch Lesbian).
• Creepshow: In "Night of the Paw" Angela, a good-looking woman, is seen in her underwear while on Whitey's operating table and then walks around a bit that way too.
• Criminal Minds:
  • We have Garcia's spectacular cleavage and Elle's double gun holsters criss-crossing over very tight t-shirts. Not to mention the time she wore a bikini.
  • Prentiss also gets a chance to flaunt her considerable assets in "JJ." And let's not forget her and Jordan Todd in "52 Pick-up" at the club. She is also used as an in-universe example, in several instances using her looks and flirting to gain the trust of the UnSub ("Outfoxed").
  • Although arguably the one to wear the least revealing clothing, anytime J.J. appears onscreen is fanservice because she's just so beautiful.
  • Garcia and Prentiss' dresses in "Run" at JJ's wedding seem specifically designed to show off their healthy chests.
  • Lampshaded in "Legacy":
    [after canvasing the area for potential witnesses]
    Prentiss: How'd you guys do?
    Hotch: Well, Reid got propositioned by every prostitute we talked to, but we didn't find anybody who thinks they'd seen the UnSub.
  • Also in that episode, Morgan flirts with a homeless lady, much like he does with Garcia, to get her to go to a shelter. He uses his hotness for good!
  • Truth in Television indeed... the very same thing happened outside a chip shop in Southport between a 22-year-old man and 46-year-old woman. For added bonus points that Real Life Writes the Plot, the guy indeed seemed very much like Reid (in terms of geekiness), albeit with Garcia's technogeek personality.
  • In an unusual departure from the norm, it is the heaviest woman on the team who provides most of the female fanservice. Garcia often wears clothes that emphasize her impressive bustline, and while this may have been unintentional on the part of the costuming department at first, it definitely seems to be deliberate as of season 7; to wit, "Snake Eyes" opens with the camera staring directly down her nightshirt.
  • Several of the female UnSubs have a rather alluring quality to them, as well; Megan Kane, Sydney Manning, Izzy Rogers...
  • Laura Allen in the episode where humans were hunted for sport.
  • Bre Blair as the prostitute Maggie in the series 2 episode with the murderer taking homeless people off the streets. She got a lot of positive comments on showbiz forums for this role.
  • Several scenes in "Compromising Positions" feature a call girl in lingerie or costumes for the viewing pleasure of her clients and the audience.
  • Also, Jennifer Aspen who appeared in "A Higher Power".
    • From that same episode, Brynn Horrocks,
    • And Lila Archer the actress Reid had a Ship Tease with in "Somebody's Watching" managed to wear a bikini twice in one episode. Once at her job on a TV show and the other time while hitting on Reid.
• Crash & Bernstein: Amanda (Oana Gregory) often wears dresses and skirts and is almost always wearing high-heeled shoes or boots. She has also gotten to wear a swimsuit in "Party Crasher" and "Crash is Having a Baby" and dressed as a hot supervillain in "Comic Book Crash".
• CSI:
  • Weirdly misaimed with the DNA tech Wendy Simms (Liz Vassey), who is constantly called "buxom" and a big deal is made about her chest in the comedic episode "You Kill Me." This even though, her actress, Liz Vassey, doesn't have especially large breasts and doesn't measure up to the hype coming from other characters. Notable in that episode is that Mandy (Sheeri Rappaport), is wearing a v-neck top that quite clearly shows that she should be the one with the label, but no one comments on it. Probably because she was wearing glasses. Maybe not so misaimed...◊.
  • Of the regulars, this title goes to Catherine Willows (Marg Helgenberger). She used to be a stripper, way back in the day (and not an Old Shameinvoked for her, even when a DA tries to use it against her in court). She's had a couple of Toplessness from the Back scenes and an interrogation where she unbuttoned her blouse every time her suspect gave her an answer.
  • Morgan Brody (Elisabeth Harnois) wears more makeup than the other team members and her clip in the titles involves her running in a tight white T-shirt.
• CSI: Miami: The role is currently held by both Natalia and Calleigh.
  • Calleigh is always wearing extremely tight pants and four-inch heels, which almost always comes with the camera panning back to show her legs or ass. She is the only other cast member apart from Horatio to appear on UK DVD sets.
• CSI: NY: Stella (Melina Kanakaredes) gets the title. She wears a low-cut Bulletproof Vest for a start. She's also a lesson as to why this is not always a good title to have. Her last two boyfriends tried to kill her and Mac respectively. She ended up killing the former in self-defence.
• Dark (2017): Franziska Doppler is an attractive, young Fiery Redhead, who has multiple nude and sex scenes across all three seasons. While she’s not the only character who gets naked, she certainly does it the most.
• Dark Desire: Alma, and to a lesser extent her friend Brenda, are shown frequently topless during sex scenes or otherwise scantily clad.
• Dark Matter (2015): Two/Portia (Melissa O'Neil) has a couple of scenes where she's seen undressing or bathing, and has a very Form-Fitting Wardrobe.
• Dates: Mia, Kate and Erica are all quite beautiful. In the first case, she wears pretty revealing clothing and has casual sex with men. Kate and Erica show some non-explicit nudity in the wake of having sex.
• Deadly Class: Maria's quite sexy, and seen in her underwear twice. Her sex scene with Marcus in the cemetery also shows her nude, although nothing explicit.
• Defiance: Stahma provides most of this for the series. Frequently she's seen wearing very little in the communal bathing pool, or during sex scenes.
• Defying Gravity: Nadia (Florentine Lahme), the lapdancing, stripteasing German astronaut.
• Desperate Housewives:
  • Edie Britt (Nicollette Sheridan) out of all the women in the series, she has the most scenes in underwear, swimwear or revealing clothes. She's also known for her proud promiscuity and prowess in bed.
  • Gabrielle Solis (Eva Longoria) is a former model and often wears the fancy and revealing outfits and often seen bathing.
  • Susan (Teri Hatcher) is a Reluctant Fanservice Girl example, as she's often put into humiliating or demeaning fanservice situations, such as her getting her Modesty Towel snagged away from her in the street while her house was locked leaving her in a Naked People Trapped Outside situation with only Scenery Censor and Hand-or-Object Underwear to preserve her modesty.
• Doctor Who: Many of the companions were designed with this in mind (to 'keep the dads watching'). but notable mentions have to go out to:
  • Zoe (Wendy Padbury). Her sparkly skintight jumpsuits is particularly memorable, especially with a lingering shot of her behind in "The Mind Robber." And that's not even mentioning the miniskirts and short shorts.
  • Josephine "Jo" Grant (Katy Manning) is arguably one of the Doctor's hottest companions — her wardrobe of mini-skirts, majorette boots and occasional panty shots help out a lot. That and the time Manning posed naked with a Dalek. She also becomes a Silver Fox by the time of The Sarah Jane Adventures.
  • Leela◊ (Louise Jameson) is a Nubile Savage alien Jungle Princess in a leotard Fur Bikini and knee-high boots.
  • Peri◊ (Nicola Bryant) whose Stripperiffic outfits were often designed to prominently display certain attributes she possessed.
  • The new series has Amy Pond (Karen Gillan) who is a Kissogram, and so has several... interesting outfits, such as a Fair Cop police uniform; a Naughty Nurse Outfits, Naughty Nun, and French Maid outfits. She has a general liking for sporting short skirts or hotpants that show off her long legs. By the end of season 6 and the beginning of season 7, she had a quite successful modeling career. By "Dinosaurs on a Spaceship", she seems to have quit.
  • Martha (Freema Agyeman). She's a hot doctor, has a scene as Timey-slimey Martha, and is medical director for Project Indigo at UNIT, and in one of the rare British examples of a Sassy Black Woman tells The Doctor to shut up... and he listens!
  • Clara (Jenna Coleman) each time she appears often wears◊ a tight red outfit◊ or a figure hugging sweater. There’s also the waitress outfit she wore in her last appearance.
• Dracula (2013): Lady Jayne is often in revealing clothes, with a preference for leather, and she frequently wears a corset showing deep cleavage. More than once she also has passionate sex with Dracula. No other female character ever shows this much skin and has so many sex scenes.
• The Dukes of Hazzard: Daisy Duke (Catherine Bach). No, not the garment, the character from this show for whom they were named. Not only did she wear short shorts most of the time, but often rather skimpy tops as well. She also had quite a few bikini scenes.
• Everybody Loves Raymond:
  • Debra (Patricia Heaton) provides this in at least two episodes - one where she "tells off" a woman who she thought accused her of dressing provocatively by overdoing it in front of her, and another where she tries to seduce Ray wearing only a nightie. Generally though, it's relegated to her wearing tight, but not out-of-place in reality clothing.
  • Stefania (Alex Meneses) was also a good example of this trope. Lampshaded in one episode where the Barones are hosting a party for singles, in hopes of getting Peter together with a girl. When Stefania shows up and takes off her winter coat, revealing a sexy dress on her already-sexy body, the other women simply declared "I'm out!" and left, assuming that they had no hope of getting a guy's attention with Stefania in the room. However, it turns out they were actually wrong: Peggy, aka the "Cookie Hitler Lady" as Ray calls her, and Peter end up falling in love.
• Euphoria: Cassie has the most nude and sex scenes of the cast, with the camera focusing on her large bust heavily. However, this is deconstructed as she finds the attention degrading too.
• Eureka: Jo and Allison are both beautiful, sexy women who have frequently wore revealing outfits, bikinis, and both were even naked at a couple occasions. For Jo, there was even a shower scene, where her shadow only showed her gracious curves.
• The Fall Guy: Jody Banks (Heather Thomas). Even her sole panel in MAD's satire "The Brawl Guy" pointed this out, having her in a bikini... in a supermarket during a chase. "Just showing some cheesecake!"
  Ricardo Montalban (as a clerk): Cheesecake? You'll find that in frozen foods! Aisle seven!
• Farscape:
  • Zhaan (Virginia Hey) is the resident Green-Skinned Space Babe. Her species has no nudity taboo, she tends to dress in revealing clothing and has a couple of partial nude scenes. However, she is more of the "sensual" kind of fanservice, elegant and graceful.
  • Chiana (Gigi Edgley). Exposing her midriffs is standard and she practically oozes sexuality. She's involved in most of the on-screen sex scenes that aren't off-puttingly alien in nature.
  • Grayza (Rebecca Riggs) also deserves special mention. Navel-Deep Neckline at its best.
• The Finder: Willa (Maddie Hasson) is almost always in tight shorts, sometimes paired with a bikini or halter top. Isabel got an underwear scene.
• Flesh and Bone: Claire provides most of the show's. At the club, she does a spontaneous pole dance in which she takes her top off. She views herself topless in the mirror another time too. Daphne also performs as a pole dancer at the club, while Mia's shown naked having sex with a guy in her very first scene.
• Flipper: Maya (Jessica Alba) who's a Walking Swimsuit Scene. This may explain why she was the only non-dolphin cast member on season one of this '90s show to have been retained for season two.
• A French Village:
  • Marie is shown partly naked more than once after getting up from bed with Raymond, then later also while having sex with other men.
  • Hortense gets multiple sex scenes, the most explicit for any main character, and slight nudity.
• Game of Thrones:
  • Ros (played by burlesque performer Esmé Bianco). While most of her scenes are plot-relevant and characterisation-rich (usually for whatever man she's interacting with), she's naked in pretty much all of them. In fact, she didn't have a single scene in Season 1 where she kept all her clothes on. From Season 2 on she serves as Littlefinger's aide, and thus wears more clothes, but remains a major source of fanservice.
  • Daenerys has traits of this as well. Though Emilia Clarke has been naked only seven times in sixty-seven episodes (in Season 1 mostly), and her travelling wear is quite functional, some of her formal outfits (seen when she meets with the master from Yunkai) are almost as revealing as Margaery's typical outfits and so qualify, especially in the first few episodes of the series.
  • Margaery Tyrell (Natalie Dormer) has been nude or partially nude only twice, but she has sported Navel-Deep Neckline quite frequently.
  • In her debut scene, we get treated to Ellaria Sand entertaining herself with the assistance of a female prostitute. She also wears an open-chested, nearly backless dress.
  • The Sand Snakes are more curvaceous than their book counterparts, but the most obvious example is Tyene, who wears the most skimpy outfit of the three and at one point flashes her breast onscreen.
  • Missandei (Nathalie Emmanuel), when first introduced wore a revealing slave-garb while under Kraznys' employ. She switches for a more modest outfit when sold to Daenerys, and even then she still remains this trope - aside of being played by the stunning Nathalie Emmanuel, she is also given her share of nude scenes.
  • Deconstructed with Bianca (Eline Powell), an actress who plays this role In-Universe as her only purpose in "The Bloody Hand" play is to have her boobs exposed for the audience's lewd appreciation. She resents being saddled with this role and contacts the Faceless Men to assassinate the lead actress in their troupe so Bianca could take her place. When her plot is exposed, Bianca is implied to have been heavily disfigured by her rival in revenge for trying to kill her, ruining any acting prospects for her, much less playing Ms. Fanservice yet again.
  • Osha (Natalia Tena) has a memorable nude scene and is capable of pulling off a Honey Trap, unless one knows the trap beforehand.
  • Myranda with Violet, intentionally to arouse Theon. It's later played straight in her sex scene with Ramsay, in which we get to see her rather glorious ass, and again in Season 5.
  • Doreah wears very skimpy outfits, is very sultry and gets a nude scene.
  • Averted to some extent with Melisandre (Carice Van Houten). While she's attractive and is arguably the most frequently nude character in the series (she has had at least one nude scene in every season after her introduction in season 2, with the exception of season 7 in which she only appeared briefly), her moments of nudity are often important to the story in some way, with many not necessarily intended as Fanservice—for example, the scene where she drops her robe in a cave to give birth to a smoke demon is considered by many fans to be an Establishing Character Moment—and even occasionally crossing into Nightmare Fuel territory given what she is doing in these scenes. The one exception was a scene in the fourth season in which she walks around naked while talking to Stannis' wife Selyse, which many viewers felt was gratuitous at the time. However, after the sixth season's Big Reveal about Melisandre's age, even this scene was considered more intriguing by fans after it was noticed that Melisandre is not wearing her choker.
  • Very much averted with Cersei's (Lena Headey) walk of shame, which is more of a squick moment than anything else.
  • Ygritte has a gratuitous nude scene while having sex with Jon.
  • While mostly dresssed conservatively, Talisa ends up naked when making love with Robb in "The Prince of Winterfell" and "The Bear and The Maiden Fair", complete with an emphasis on her ass.
• Gang Related: Not most of the time, but when going undercover once to get close with a Russian gangster, Vee gets dressed in a very revealing, low-cut dress.
• The Geena Davis Show: Geena Davis in her self-titled sitcom. That being all that it had going for it (though admittedly, this was still nothing to sneeze at at the time), the show didn't last long.
• Gilligan's Island: Ginger and Mary Ann in general.
  • Ginger is a flirtatious tease who has a shapely slim figure, red hair, cut class features, breathy voice, and clad in body hugging dresses that show some cleavage. When shown at bedtime, Ginger is usually clad in only a Modesty Bedsheet, implying she Sleeps in the Nude. She also has a Shower Scene in "Water, Water Everywhere" where she teases Gilligan while wearing only a Modesty Towel.
  • Mary Ann (Dawn Wells) tends to wear many revealing outfits. She wore a French Maid Outfit in "'V' is Vitamin" and in "Beauty Is As Beauty Does", she's lounging in a bathing suit on the beach when Gilligan's misuse of a fishing pole causes her to get her bathing suit ripped off, causing her to have a Naked Freak-Out in the water.
• Girlfriends Guide To Divorce: Abby's friend Phoebe by miles, even In-Universe. Abby's lawyer Delia (most notably in "Rule No 33: When in Doubt, Run Away"), Jake's girlfriend Becca and Abby herself also have their moments.
• Glee:
  • Has Santana (Naya Rivera) and Brittany (Heather Morris), who, when not dressed as Cheerios, wear some of the more revealing outfits in dance numbers.
  • The writers seem to be making an effort to show that Rachel (Lea Michele) has a pretty smokin' body as well. The fourth season had her doing a very sexy version of Britney Spears' "Oops! I did it again" when Cassandra tells her she's not coming forward as sexy enough for her class. And let's not forget her revealing performance of "Baby, one more time" in season 2.
• Gossip Girl:
  • Serena van der Woodsen (Blake Lively). In season one, she was fairly clothed, but since then she is usually showing lots of leg and always showing lots of breast. In fact, fans tend to refer to her breasts as separate characters.
  • Blair (Leighton Meester), whose Lingerie Scenes are infamous. And who loves role-playing and bondage in the bedroom.
• Gotham:
  • Barbara wears a lot of revealing clothes and provides most of the Male Gaze in the show.
  • Tabitha wears a top that shows her cleavage very often, with short skirts baring her legs too, and long leather boots.
  • On top of this, Barbara and Tabitha are both bisexual, kissing at length for viewer enjoyment. They become lovers for a time too.
• Graceland: Paige (Serinda Swan) is a gorgeous athletic blonde who sports a bikini or workout outfits in a number of episodes.
• Ground Force: The rather staid and strait-laced world of TV gardening was livened up by presenter Charlie Dimmock, who scorned bras on the basis they were restricting and uncomfortable. She also favoured loose baggy t-shirts with scooped necks, and as a lot of her presentations were done whilst kneeling over her plants and bending over, the series soon gathered a fan-base that didn't know one end of a plant from the other. And being a British show, it rained a lot, which one could concede was good for the plants, once you got past Charlie in a wet t-shirt to give them a passing glance just for the sake of the thing.
• Hacks: Ava has two scenes wearing nothing but her underwear while intimate with guys, and another where while in a bikini she starts making out with a couple other women. Once she also takes a selfie of herself topless for her ex, and gets caught in the act by Deborah (though it's not explicit). She's quite a pretty redhead.
• Hand of God: As one might expect, the gorgeous High-Class Call Girl Tessie serves this role, with her appearing topless twice, in the most sex scenes and otherwise wearing revealing clothing.
• The series Harry O relocated to LA midway through season 1, and the character of Harry himself moved next door to a beach house occupied by stewardesses. Stewardesses, it should be mentioned, who enjoy hanging out at the beach wearing bikinis, and who are played variously by Farrah Fawcett, Kathrine Baumann and Loni Anderson (amongst others). Harry's DMV contact Gina (played by Barbara Leigh) also shows up in a bikini rather more often than one might expect in a typical government-employee/member-of-the-public relationship.
• Hart of Dixie: Zoe (Rachel Bilson), wears very revealing clothing such as her short shorts and mini-skirts that show off her legs as well as many Swimsuit and LingerieScenes and even went Skinny Dipping in the lake a couple of times.
• Hercules: The Legendary Journeys:
  • Atalanta (Corey Everson) was a lovely Amazonian Beauty that wore a revealing leotard-like armor that showed off her buff, but voluptuous physique. Ironically, she was not viewed as this by most men in-universe, who were intimidated by her strength and considered her a Brawn Hilda instead, with the only exceptions being Hercules and Salmoneus.
  • Mermaid Nautica (Angela Dotchin) in ""Love on the Rocks", is a gorgeous brunette who spends much of her screentime baring a lot of skin. She wears a Seashell Bra as a mermaid and once turned human is naked save for Godiva Hair and Shoulders-Up Nudity. She even walks to town in the buff since she doesn't understand the concept of modesty.
• Heroes:
  • Claire (Hayden Panettiere). She's a hot cheerleader who can heal from anything and in fact seems to enjoy the pain her power brings, engaging in various forms of sado-masochism. And in season four, she gets a girlfriend.
  • Lydia (Dawn Olivieri) from Season 4, who spends basically all of her time on-screen half-naked or showing her bare back to show off her Power Tattoo's.
  • Twin sisters Niki and Tracy (both played by Ali Larter), are almost official Ms. Fanservice of the series, having several nude or Lingerie Scenes spread over the series.
• Highlander made use of Alexandra Vandernoot as Tessa several times in season 1. She took a provocative shower in the pilot that had to be edited for American television and had a couple steamy love scenes with Duncan. Later, Amanda fell into it as well l, as did some of the female guest stars who also had hot love scenes with Duncan.
• Hightown:
  • Jackie is shown having sex with women (though without explicit nudity) or wearing only her underwear multiple times.
  • Renee is shown scantily clad and nude often. It helps that her job is a stripper. She's also shown having sex with Ray or Frankie Sr.
  • Sarah in Season 3 plays this up while seducing Owen, flirting with him while in skimpy outfits, giving him a handjob, later sending a selfie of her bare breasts after he sends a dick pic. She's young and pretty, so it's easy. Ray soon falls for Sarah too, having sex with her.
• Home Improvement: In-Universe, the purpose of Lisa (Pamela Anderson) and Heidi (Debbie Dunning). Not nearly as suggestive as in most shows — they're merely just hot, busty women in tight clothing.
• House:
  • Thirteen (Olivia Wilde) seems to be a conscious effort to create a Lipstick Lesbian Hospital Hottie Ms. Fanservice. Girl on Girl Is Hot is played up during her many hook-ups. This is actually invoked In-Universe when she scores an invitation to Chase's bachelor party in season 5 by suggesting she may "get drunk and make out with the stripper or become one."
  • Dr. Lisa Cuddy (Lisa Edelstein). Low-cut tops, very tight skirts and pants and always in heels and is show in various states of undress after her Relationship Upgrade with House. Sometimes Cameron and Thirteen are seen in lab coats (damn it) but never her:
    House: Sorry — you just don't usually see breasts like that on deans of medicine.
  • Martha Masters (Amber Tamblyn), the new girl on the team, whose wardrobe seems to consist only of mini-skirts. Even her lab coat is short!
• How I Met Your Mother: Robin Scherbatsky (Cobie Smulders), who has had lots of eye-catching moments in dresses and shots of her breasts. Of the two (eventually three) female leads, she certainly showed the most skin.
• Hustle: Stacy Monroe (Jaime Murray), both for the show and for the cons themselves, where she is typically used in such a way. She also happens to be a very well-written character and a mathematical genius.
• iCarly: Carly (Miranda Cosgrove), as much as a kids' show will allow: a two-piece bikini, a hula girl outfit, then a sports bra and boxing shorts, among others. And the bikini scene in "iHatch Chicks" emphasizes it by putting Sam in a less revealing one-piece and Bermuda shorts to contrast.
• I Know What You Did Last Summer (2021): Lennon and Margot are uninhibited with their sexuality and provide many instances of fanservice for the show, ranging from revealing clothing to actual sex scenes, especially the former who made amateur porn (Margot's in one video with her).
• Imposters: Maddie's an attractive woman who gets plenty of sex and fanservice scenes, is often clad in her underwear, and the camera never misses a chance to focus on her body. The fact that she only dresses in outfits that show it off undoubtedly helps.
• Industry: Yasmin and Harper are both in multiple scenes where they're topless while having sex, taking nude pics of themselves or otherwise undressed. Both are very good-looking.
• The Insider: Lara Spencer on this U.S. celebrity/Hollywood news program. Viewers get to vote for what she wears on the next show. Although there's no cleavage bearing, they always seem to compliment her figure well. The main desk also has a transparent front, so that her legs can be seen.
• Irma Vep: Mira is quite good-looking, slinking around for much of the series playing Irma Vep (or kind of becoming her) in a skin-tight catsuit. Also, she's seen naked from the back going into the shower.
• JAG: Sarah "Mac" Mackenzie (Catherine Bell). The show took many opportunities to show off Mac both in uniform and in other attire, skivvies and swimwear included.
  • In "Yesterday’s Heroes", as part of the plan of busting a drug kingpin is having Mac approach his mooks in a two piece swimsuit to get Distracted by the Sexy. It works.
  • The entire beach segments in the two-parter "Boomerang" is really pointless, other than providing Fanservice, with Mac and Mic going into the beach with a bikini only to realize it's a topless beach, prompting her to reluctantly let Mic take off her top. When Harm and Bud meet her on the beach she's using a magazine to cover her chest, but it's still enough to make Bud clearly distracted.
  • In "JAG TV", Mac lands a publicly televised case which all of a sudden receives national attention. On an in-verse segment of The Late Late Show the then-host Craig Kilborn has this to say about Mac:
    Kilborn: Now, officially, she's a colonel in the Marines. But to me, she's a major babe.
    [Kilborn holds up picture of Mac in the bikini she wore in "Boomerang".
    Kilborn: I think we now know why the Marines are first on the beach.
  • In "A Tangled Webb II", shows Mac in a Bathtub Scene, complete with Leg Focus. Harm ends up interrupting her and immediately gets Distracted by the Sexy.
  • Another example of obvious Fanservice is in "Critical Condition", where we get to see Mac in lingerie while getting changed into her Service C uniform.
  • In "Straits of Malacca", Mac wears a special forces-style wetsuit when boarding a cargo ship.
• Jane the Virgin:
  • Xiomara (Andrea Navedo), Jane's mom, can usually be seen in butt hugging shorts, short skirts and cleavage exposing tops.
  • Petra (Yael Grobglas) is a Sensual Slav that acts like The Vamp and spends half her screen time reminding us how hot and leggy she is.
  • Rose (Bridget Regan) is a beautiful, charming and seductive woman, as well as being a dangerous Femme Fatale.
• Jungle: This tragically short-lived series was a nature documentary hosted by a Miss Fanservice, Charlotte Uhlenbroek. One particularly breathtaking scene had her walking along branches barefoot and moving between vines in half-trapeze artist, half pole-dancer fashion.
• K.C. Undercover: Tomboy K.C. (Zendaya) tends to avoid wearing revealing outfits too often, but she has her occasional moments. Her best fiend Marisa (Veronica Dunne), who usually wears skirts and boots, fits this trope much better.
• Kickin' It: Kim (Olivia Holt) often wears skirts, thin jeans, and sandals on the show.
• Kirby Buckets: Dawn (Olivia Stuck) dressed fairly modestly early in the show's run, but began to be seen in dresses and skirts regularly as the show went on. Belinda (Tiffany Espensen) also can count whenever she drops her Hollywood Homely look.
• Kiss Me First: Leila (Tallulah Haddon) and Tess (Simona Brown) appear partly naked in several scenes. Many of them aren't even sex scenes-Tess sleeps topless and gets Leila to do the same.
• Kröd Mändoon and the Flaming Sword of Fire: Aneka, which Kröd constantly hangs a lantern on. She wears skimpy clothes habitually, often without underwear (and does flips which show this) while constantly using her charms to sleep with men, whether to get things or just for fun. Even when it's not actual sex, she does things such as mimic cunnilingus on a banana. Kröd, her supposed boyfriend, complains frequently about this (particularly her constant cheating). Aneka however cites her lack of his sexual hangup, so she won't stop.
• Lab Rats: Bree (Kelli Berglund) wears mission suits that are very revealing of her figure. Her beachgoing outfits in "Dude, Where's My Lab" and "Spider Island" also can count.
• Las Vegas:
  • Mary (Nikki Cox). The story has a big fixation on her sex appeal and her buxom figure. To the point it's a Running Gag for her to be Mistaken for Prostitute or looking down at her breasts.
  • Delinda (Molly Sims). There's a reason Delinda's Sexy Surfacing Shot from the pool was never taken out of the opening sequence.
• The Law According to Lidia Poët: Lidia is a beautiful young woman who's shown topless having sex with men multiple times in the series.
• Legend of the Seeker:
  • Kahlan Amnell (Bridget Regan). A Statuesque Stunner with Raven Hair, Ivory Skin who always wears clothes that show her cleavage (and a couple times is topless from the back).
  • Cara. Hot bisexual blonde with BDSM tendencies who habitually dresses in tight leather and has the most naked scenes (albeit Shoulders-Up Nudity). Mord Sith generally provide fanservice on the show too.
• Leverage:
  • Sophie's (Gina Bellman) is a classical grifter who often uses sex appeal and flirtation on marks with her seductive english accent.
  • Parker (Beth Riesgraf) is not nearly as good at it and much of her role comes from the various Sexy Whatever Outfit she wears and her lack of modesty when changing into them. There's also her gymnastics going through Laser Hallways. Lampshaded in "The Rundown Job"
    Hardison: [Eating the Eye Candy staring] I never get tired of that!
    [Eliot, also staring, silently gives Hardison a fist-bump of approval]
  • Tara (Jeri Ryan) takes over the role from Sophie for a while. Notable examples are in "The Maltese Falcon Job" where she pretends she's in a Naked People Trapped Outside situation so the bellboy will let her into an hotel room and in "The Bottle Job" for her Dirty Harriet cover.
    Tara: [hikes skirt, sticks out chest, pouts lip]] "My name’s Trish and I’m lonely..." [Supermodel Strut walks with swinging hips]
• Lexx:
  • Xev Eva (Xenia Seeberg). Justified Trope in that an explicit part of her backstory is having an Extreme Libido, and in it being that kind of show. Her normal outfit features a short skirt, but some of her Shower Scenes are full-on softcore porn. Only Xev could make eating a rat look sexy.
  • Prior to Xev, there was Zev (Eva Habermann), complete with a nude scene that didn't involve a body double.
  • Bunny Priest (Patricia Zentilli) qualifies in her first appearance on the show. In one of her first scenes, she's showering with other women while Kai rubs soap all over her.
• Life: Some fans were irked at the obvious Ms. Fanservice Hotter and Sexier makeover given to Detective Dani Reese (Sarah Shahi) in its second and final season. Particularly memorable was a gratuitous slow-motion hip-swinging stroll in thigh-high boots whilst sucking on a lollipop. The change was seen as an obvious attempt to "sex up" the series by putting her in more revealing clothing: replacing her sensible shoes with heels, taking down her hair which had been previously worn up in a no-nonsense bun, wearing lower-cut tops (which was lampshaded by Crews with the suggestion that she utilize a few more buttons at the top of her blouse before entering a complex which housed former prison inmates).
• Lost Girl: Literally all of the female characters, given many are also succubi. The show pretty much exists for this trope.
  • Bo (Anna Silk) especially. She lives in a world of push-up bras, shirts with the most possible cleavage shown, tight black pants, and lots of leather. And those clothes seldom stay on for a whole episode... Fans have given her tendency to show cleavage the nickname 'Boobs O'Clock' and make it a game to find the best example in each episode. The writers are totally aware of the Boobs O'Clock thing too.
    Bo: How's this one?
    Kenzi: Not low enough, you need boob-oola. Gotta let the girls breathe.
  • Kenzi (Ksenia Solo) is the resident goth/pixie girl who doesn't show much cleavage, but often wears corsets over her shirts. She also wears a healthy amount of fishnet and is always in either tight pants or a mini skirt. Also she wears skyscraper heels most of the time.
  • Tamsin (Rachel Skarsten) usually wears tight, skimpy or see-through clothing and deliberately sexually provokes Bo.
  • The Morrigan (Emmanuelle Vaugier) likes to play The Vamp and dresses accordingly.
  • Lauren (Zoie Palmer) and Ciara (Lina Roessler) as well as lots of the female guest stars qualify too. They are shown in either lingerie or clothes which show leg and cleavage.
• Lovecraft Country:
  • Leti is quite beautiful, and the series shows her figure off frequently in revealing clothing, particularly her long legs. She also has a couple sex scenes.
  • Ji-Ah is gorgeous, and has multiple sex scenes the first episode where she's introduced, in which she shows her breasts along with shots from the back and side.
• The L Word: A lot of the main cast and many supporting characters are attractive women who frequently get it on pretty explicitly, with nearly everyone (except Bette) shown topless too. In Jenny's case, she even shows full-frontal nudity during her work as a stripper.
• MAD: The feature "It's About Time!" parodied weather shows, suggesting how to enliven the dull subject of the local time with the presence of a perky buxom hostess, "your 'Good-Time Girl', Ticky Tock, with the latest time reports..."
• Mad Men:
  • Joan (Christina Hendricks) is curvy, well-endowed and spends most of her time in tight outfits.
  • Megan (Jessica Paré) tends to get a lot of scenes in skimpy clothing or Black Bra and Panties.
• Merlin:
  • Morgana (Katie McGrath) is always seen in extra tight dresses with giant cleavage that show a lot of skin.
  • Guinevere (Angel Coulby) got Progressively Prettier as the show went on especially after she becomes Queen and starts wearing dresses and outfits that show off more of her upper assets.
• The Messengers: Vera wearing only a towel in Path to Paradise.
• Mighty Med: Skylar (Paris Berelc) is usually seen in a sexy battle suit similar to Bree's from Lab Rats, and her civillian look often means skirts and boots.
• Misfits:
  • Alisha's bit with the bottle in the first episode, which inspires a stunned look from all the boys (Curtis, Nathan and Simon). She's quite pretty, and definitely the most keen to flaunt her sex appeal of the female cast. In fact, her power is based on this-anyone who touches her immediately has a strong urge to have sex with her.
  • The Cheerleaders from 3.7. Subverted when the zombie virus kicks in.
• Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries: The eponymous Phryne Fisher (Essie Davis) herself provides plenty of fanservice - usually by wearing a Gorgeous Period Dress with a low neckline, underwear and sauna scenes in "Cocaine Blues."
• Modern Family:
  • Gloria (Sofía Vergara) likes to wear tight, low cut clothing that shows off her figure.
  • Hayley (Sarah Hyland) sometimes wears sexy clothes, especially on Halloween episodes.
• Monty Python's Flying Circus:
  • Even this show had one, namely Carol Cleveland. The other Pythons called her "Carol Cleavage." Justified, as the Monty Pythons usually did female roles themselves. The only time they hired actresses was when the character had to show something the guy's couldn't fake. Thus, every woman in the Flying Circus tends to be fanservice.
  • Invoked Trope in the "Science Fiction Sketch" with the scientist's assistant, played by Donna Reading, in a skimpy minidress, staring out at the camera while posing coquettishly and giggling as she struggles through her lines.
• Moonlight: Beth's cameraman attaches a mike to her bra in the first episode. Her shirt hangs open then, and Christian rips it open again later.
• My Name Is Earl:
  • Catalina (Nadine Velazquez). There was almost a whole episode dedicated to Earl and Randy making her reclaim her job of pole dancing, complete with gratuitous amounts of her jumping on the spot in skimpy lingerie. Never mind the fact her maid outfit is often suspiciously open to the cleavage for no reason. I guess that explains why the two brothers are still staying in the same motel...
  • To a lesser extent, Joy (Jaime Pressly). But the effect is somewhat spoiled by her being mean and vindictive. (Of course, some guys are into that.)
• MythBusters: Kari Byron. To the producers' credit, they don't overdo that angle. Sometimes they just can't resist. They really can't.
• My World… and Welcome to It: The episode "The Middle Years" concerns John's sudden fascination with his comely new widow neighbor Mrs. Bessinger. He ogles her throughout the episode, sometimes using binoculars, and at one point imagines her wearing a tight, skimpy red dress and dancing to strip tease music.
• Naked News: This show takes this trope to its logical extreme, or parodies it, or both.
• Nashville: Juliette Barnes (Hayden Panettiere). Season three toned it down a bit, however. While Juliette still had her moments, including doing a shoot for Vogue dressed in a piece of white fabric and not much else while pregnant. (Ironically, given Panettiere was genuinely pregnant at the time she didn't do what's known in the business as "a Demi Moore" in the real world.)
• NCIS:
  • Abby (Pauley Perrette) often wears very short skirts. Apart from that, she doesn't usually show much skin, but as a Perky Goth her clothing, accessories and tattoos could fill a catalogue of fetishes. She also has a couple of scenes of her changing clothes which, apart from showing off her tattoos via Toplessness from the Back, demonstrate that she doesn't wear a bra.
  • Caitlin "Kate" Todd (Sasha Alexander) got, in the space of two seasons and two episodes, a stretch in tight trousers, two Shower Scenes, a Sexy Schoolwoman outfit, a Spy Catsuit, a dominatrix cop outfit — and we discovered that she won a Wet T-Shirt Contest (though that is never shown, just discussed).
  • Near the end of season 5, they realized that putting Ziva (Cote de Pablo) in a bikini might just draw in a few viewers. During various undercover missions - and in her free time - she often wears short, sexy backless dresses, sometimes with a Navel-Deep Neckline. The episode "Undercovers" opens up with her and Tony having fake sex.
  • Director Sheperd (Lauren Holly) grew out her hair and started wearing tight skirts and form-fitting sweaters. And she wore a gorgeous sexy backless dress.
• NCIS: Los Angeles: They have Kensi (Daniela Ruah), a very, very blatant example. Great, rounded character who gets in chick fights in low cut dresses in the middle of a randomly placed fountains. Note the plural. This has happened more than once. Her normal clothes tend to include thin, skintight shirts and she's prone to Workout Fanservice.
• The Next Food Network Star: The Season 6 (2010) winner, Aarti Sequeira, is now hostess of Aarti Party. The food is not the only thing that's spicy on that show.
• New Girl: Cece's (Hannah Simone) is a beautiful model and we often get to see her in skimpy dresses, lingerie, bikinis, etc. Lampshaded in one episode when Schmidt tells her she looks like she's trying to distract James Bond at a baccarat table.
• The Night Manager: Jed is a shameless fanservice girl who's frequently shown in her lingerie, naked from the back, the side, and also topless a couple times while having sex with Pine.
• Nikita:
  • Nikita (Maggie Q), who's often wearing if not exactly revealing then skin-tight clothing. Her spy catsuits are infamous. The show draws frequent attention to her legs as well as many close ups of her flawless features.
  • Alex (Lyndsy Fonseca) usually avoids this but there was an episode where she went undercover as a prostitute and did a jaw dropping poledance.
• Normal People: Marianne is pretty, and is shown topless many times while having sex with Connell or otherwise, plus once entirely naked.
• The Office (US): Parodied. Several of the cast (mostly Michael and Kevin) treat Pam (Jenna Fischer) like she is Ms. Fanservice (Michael often making suggestions to her on how to sex things up a bit) but Pam, while pretty, dresses rather conservatively (which she has admitted at one point is to discourage this type of behavior) and outright shoots down any attempt to get her to dress differently.
• Once Upon a Time:
  • Ruby (Meghan Ory), whose waitress outfit shows off her legs and midriff. Her off duty clothes are just as revealing. The irony of this is that her counterpart, Red Riding Hood, wears the most conservative outfit of all of the women in the fairy tale world.
  • Conversely, while Queen Regina (Lana Parrilla) and the Blue Fairy (Keegan Connor Tracy) regularly wear outfits that emphasize their cleavage, their real-world counterparts Mayor Regina and the Mother Superior are probably the most conservatively dressed women in Storybrooke.
  • The Red Queen (Emma Rigby) from Once Upon a Time in Wonderland, who wears many form-fitting outfits that show off her cleavage and figure.
• One Tree Hill: Nearly every female character, with most of them being hot cheerleaders or fashion models.
  • Brooke Davis (Sophia Bush) is a Head-Turning Beauty that is the Lust Object of every guys in school, not helped by her flirtatious attitude and promiscuity. She even has a "signature move" where she sneaks into the backseat of a guy's car naked to try to seduce him, which becomes a series Running Gag.
  • Rachel Gatina (Danneel Ackles) has most of the same fanservice qualities as Brooke (being her Evil Counterpart) but enhanced by her acting more like The Vamp and Alpha Bitch.
  • Quinn James (Shantel VanSanten) is a Statuesque Stunner with a vast quantity of scenes of her in a bikini and lingerie. One episode even had her be trapped outside in the snow in only a tiny bikini and boots.
  • Alex Dupre (Jana Kramer) who is an even bigger The Tease thean Brooke and Rachel and is prone to wear even more revealing clothing than they were. She's also very casual about her body or sex.
  • Hayley's older sister Taylor (Lindsey McKeon) is a tease who's very attractive and promiscuous, spending a lot of her screentime in bathrobes or in her underwear.
  • Nanny Carrie (Torrey DeVitto) is very attractive, which made Haley uncomfortable even before Carrie revealed her true colors, in one episode she's asked by Haley not to wear her bikini at the pool. So the next time she goes for a swim, she wears nothing at all.
  • Gigi Silveri (Kelsey Chow) has a Hot Librarian look with a Covert Pervert personality that's turned Up to Eleven when she returns in season 6.
• Only Fools and Horses: Cassandra often wears outfits which call attention to Gwyneth Strong's long, slender legs.
• Outlander: Claire appears mostly naked (in sex scenes or not) frequently throughout the series. Later her daughter Brianna also gets multiple sex scenes where she's shown mostly naked.
• Pandora:
  • Jax (Priscilla Quintana), Atreia (Raechelle Banno) and Pilar (Banita Sandhu) wear many revealing outfits and have several nude (albeit tastefully censored) scenes.
  • Tierney (Tina Casciani) also wears many fanservice outfits and has most of her interactions with other characters being very sexually charged. During the season 1 finale she wears an incredibly Stripperiffic dress that shows off her toned figure.
• Part of Me: Adriana/Monica (María Elisa Camargo) and Elena (Vanessa Villela) wear many revealing outfits and get the most Fanservice scenes out of the female characters, including quite a few post-coital scenes and both even went Skinny Dipping once or twice.
• A Passion for Revenge: Patricia (Daniela Navarro) is The Diva and main attraction of the local night club, famous for her Stripperiffic Cowgirl outfit during her performances and is often seen in her underwear or less in her scenes in the backstage.
• Perry Mason (2020):
  • Lupe, who's quite attractive, shows significant nudity after having sex with Perry.
  • Della's quite pretty, wearing flattering, stylish clothing and is topless then seen naked from the back after having sex with Anita. She's also seen getting up from bed once again topless (as is Anita) in the next episode.
• Philip K. Dick's Electric Dreams: In "Human Is" Vera is shown in an extended sequence seeking solace from her Sexless Marriage by having an anonymous three-way with a younger couple, that does little to advance the plot. Later she starts having sex with Silas (or his impersonator) and is shown topless both times.
• Pizza has a lot of sexy chicks.
  • Claudia McPherson (Annalise Braakensiek) a gorgeous Dumb Blonde model with an fitness ads that show her bending over in a tank-top, exposing her ample cleavage.
  • Ruby (Angela White) an ex-porn star (played by a real-life porn star) mostly known for her buxom figure. She's called "Mama Juggs" for a reason.
• Power Rangers: This franchise has had a few over the years, most notably:
  • Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers: Kimberly's (Amy Jo Johnson) gymnastics leotards and far more Beach Episodes than later series. Also, Trini (Thuy Trang) wore outfits just as fanservice-y as Kimberly, wearing midriff-baring sleeveless tops and short shorts. In fact, Kimberly wore conservative outfits more often than Trini did.
  • Power Rangers Lost Galaxy: Maya is perhaps the series' most famous, wearing a Nubile Savage outfit and portrayed by Cerina Vincent. Also Karone's sexy midriff-baring leather getup and prominent cleavage.
  • Power Rangers RPM: Tenaya 7 (Adelaide Kane) whose skin tight outfit leaves little to the imagination and gets a lot of ass shots.
  • Power Rangers Ninja Storm's Tori (Sally Martin) was also this in her surf outfits.
  • Power Rangers Megaforce has Emma (Christina Masterson) of the perfect legs and short shorts.
• Pretty Little Liars:
  • Spencer (Troian Bellisario) gets much more revealing outfits than in the previous seasons, including miniskirts and a tedency wear her lover's shirt and only that, showing off her shapely legs.
  • Emily (Shay Mitchell) being an Academic Athlete who specializes in swimming, gets to wear many sporty clothing and swimwear.
  • Alison (Sasha Pieterse), is a former Queen Bee of Rosewood High, who spends various episodes of season 1 in a bikini for an unknown reasons.
  • Hanna (Ashley Benson). Although she did have a few fanservice scenes, she hits the ground running in season 3, . "Grave New World" in particular; Hanna's Halloween costume accentuated her cleavage a lot more than the rest of the girls, which the viewers indeed noticed.
  • Aria (Lucy Hale) dresses more modestly than the other girls, but she makes it up by being the one who shows off the most skin in her sex scenes.
• The protagonist of Relic Hunter, Sydney Fox, is played by model Tia Carrere. She doesn't seem to have any nudity taboo and the writers are good at finding reasons for her to strip down to her lingerie (or to full nudity, but then there tends to be a convenient Scenery Censor at hand or shot with Shoulders-Up Nudity). The first-season credits features a shot of her taking her top off to reveal a lacy, black bra.
• Revenge:
  • Fake Amanda/Real Emily (Margarita Levieva) became the show's Ms. Fanservice in record time. Working as a stripper/lapdancer in her first episode (and first non-flashback appearance), going for a swim at Nolan's place in a very skimpy bikini in her second, sunning herself on Amanda in her third, kissing girls in the bar, perpetually rocking the denim cutoffs... although they did tone this down somewhat before she was Killed Off for Real.
  • Louise Ellis (Elena Satine) took up the slack in season four, with her fondness for snug dresses and outfit that emphasize her curves, eye-catching bikinis and lingerie... Margaux LeMarchal summed it up when she said of her, "Quite the little sexpot, isn't she?"
• Revolution:
  • Charlie Matheson (Tracy Spiridakos) is very attractive and get's quite a few fanservice scenes. In "Sex and Drugs", she has a Bathtub Scene and is seen slowly leaving a bathtub dripping wet showing a lot of Sideboob, and later in a very flattering evening gown as bait for a Honey Trap for one of Drexel's enemies.
  • Nora Clayton (Daniella Alonso) sure likes her low-cut, thin tops (and is seen removing them at least twice). "The Love Boat" has Nora have sex with Miles Matheson at the end of the episode. "The Longest Day" has Nora then saying to Miles that she feels having sex with him is a mistake and later she gets captured by the Monroe Republic. "Clue" turns this into a Deconstructed Trope by Nora being forced to wear a white dress for Monroe, being tortured and may even have been raped off-screen. She noticeably wears outfits covering up most of her skin from that episode on and into "Children of Men" and "The Dark Tower."
• Rookie Blue: The show has a lot of scenes where the main female characters show skin, with many gratuitous locker room scenes, although most of it is provided by Andy.
  • Three of the rookies undercover as prostitutes in a sting operation in episode 4, with Andy and Gail wearing very revealing outfits.
  • Season 2 begins with Andy dancing at home in her underwear for a few moments before anything remotely resembling a scene begins.
  • "Friday the 13th" opens with a Shower Scene, showing Chloe's Sexy Silhouette behind the glass, before the moving inside with gratuitous Shoulders-Up Nudity and Toplessness from the Back shots.
• Sam & Cat: Cat (Ariana Grande) continues her fine work in this field after her time on Victorious, such as her genie Halloween getup in "#DollSitting" that displays her abs.
• Saturday Night Live: In her brief stint, Casey Wilson got a surprising number of fanservice-y parts, which makes her getting fired for being "too fat" all the more ludicrous.
• Scoundrels (2010):
  • Heather ((Leven Rambin)) gets quite a few scenes in swimwear or lingerie when she's posing for modeling shoots or working at the strip club.
  • Nina Hong (Dina Meyer), Mr. Hong's sexpot Trophy Wife that's played up for fanservice everytime she's on screen, from doing yoga in tight clothing, wearing a bikini or acting like a Dominatrix.
  • Patty Hong (Jessalyn Wanlim) is The Fashionista who's often wearing luxurious and revealing clothing, as well as walking around in fancy swimwear around her home.
  • Valerie (played by Jessica Collins) is a Hot Teacher and has some steamy scenes with her Love Interest Logan where she's in her underwear.
• Scream: The TV Series: Brooke (Carlson Young). Out of the main female characters, she's portrayed as the most outwardly sexy. The promos even refer to as "the sex object" in a horror/slasher story.
• The Secret Circle: Each of the girls gets a turn at winding up in her undies or just a Modesty Bedsheet, particularly Melissa (Jessica Parker Kennedy) in the first few episodes. Faye (Phoebe Tonkin) also became this as time went on, getting some Bathtub Scenes and sex scenes.
• Semlons Gröna Dalar (Semlon's Green Valleys): This Swedish 1970s comedy series pokes fun at this trope with the in-series TV series Tant Raffa (approximately Sexy Auntie) in which a hot lady in lingerie reads classical fairy tales in an "interesting" manner. Mr Semlon is an avid fan of hers.
• Shadowhunters:
  • At Pandemonium in the first episode, both Isabelle and the demon girl wear very tight, revealing outfits. Isabelle even drops her coat and does a dance to distract the nearby demons.^note This is in sharp contrast to the books, where her outfit in the equivalent scene is notably conservative.
  • For much of the first episode, Clary wears a see-through mesh top with a black bra underneath. At the end of the episode, she changes into a black leather mini-dress with thigh-high boots, courtesy of Isabelle.
  • Isabelle bags another example when she seduces a Seelie for information in episode 3. Meliorn, her on-again, off-again boyfriend, is shirtless, and she gets a Lingerie Scene in a red bra and matching panties and later shows some Toplessness from the Back when they have sex.
• The Shannara Chronicles:
  • In the pilot Amberle has a Waterfall Shower with Shoulders-Up Nudity and Toplessness from the Back.
  • "Pykon" has Amberle and Eretria bathing together in the castle, with Eretria flirting with Amberle, although it doesn't show more than their bare shoulders and bare legs.
• She's Gotta Have It: Nola is beautiful and is an unashamed polyamorous woman who really loves sex, so naturally she's shown having a lot of it, appearing topless in many scenes.
• Sledge Hammer!: Some of the things done to the lissome Dori (Anne-Marie Martin): Putting her fully clothed into a sauna, so her clothes shrink by about six sizes; have her assigned to Vice as a decoy, dressed like a street hooker; and get her in a Mud Wrestling in a Cat Fight with a barely dressed arrestee. Not to mention all the excuses for baring her long slim legs...
  Criminal: Baby, all I see is a badge...and legs.
• Smallville:
  • Smallville's Lois Lane (Erica Durance) is one of the most sexed-up versions of the character, with the story constantly having her in fanservicey situations that show off her shapely legs, buxom figure and toned abs. She also sports an impressive collection of Sexy Whatever Outfit and Fanservice Costumes. Case in point.
    • Of Corsets Sexy: In "Spell" while she's possessed by the witch Brianna.
    • Cosplay: Dresses up as Lady Marian in "Wither", Wonder Woman in "Warrior"
    • Dressed All in Rubber: In "Combat", she wears a red leather suit to infiltrate an illegal fighting club.
    • Dressed Like a Dominatrix: In "Supergirl", while investigating Godfrey, she dresses up in latex fetish gear, "torturing" Godfrey, and later being Bound and Gagged.
    • Flag Bikini: In "Exposed", while undercover she does Pole Dance with a bikini with aspects of the USA flag.
    • French Maid Outfit: In "Odyssey" she wears the traditional French maid outfit when sneaking into the Luthor Manor.
    • Hell-Bent for Leather: Her Stiletto hero costume in "Stiletto".
    • Modesty Bedsheet: Both times after she sleeps with Clark, in "Pandora" and in "Harvest".
    • Playboy Bunny: Wears a Bunny Girl costume while Jumping Out of a Cake in "Charade."
    • Sexy Shirt Switch:
    • In "Rage" Lois is shown waking up one morning and wandering around Oliver's penthouse wearing only his shirt.
    • In "Ambush" she is wearing Clark's jersey after Their First Time, when they're interrupted by her father and sister arriving for dinner.
    • In "Committed" she wakes up from a hangover wearing only Clark's jersey and assumes they either slept together or he undressed her, but Clark tells her she just got drunk and changed into the jersey on her own.
    • Sexy Surfacing Shot: In "Aqua", she comes out of Crater Lake in a bikini in Slow Motion, so the audience can drink in her curves. The shot even made it into the intro when introducing Lois Lane.
    • Shower Scene: Takes one in "Fade", with Toplessness from the Back and Sexy Silhouette. Turns into a Shower of Awkward when she suspects someone is sneaking in her apartment and she burst out of her bathroom, only to find a startled Clark on the other side. Cue Naked Freak-Out.
  • Before Lois, Lana Lang (Kristin Kreuk) was the biggest Miss Fanservice on the show. The story doesn't shy away from showing off her body, including not one but two instances of Skinny Dipping with Clark. This became played up even more after season's 4 "Crusade" , when she started to get gratuitous Shower Scenes and is shown sleeping naked.
  • Kara Zor-El's (Laura Vandervoort) casual attire shows her midriff and legs and even ends up winning a Beauty Contest.
  • Tess Mercer (Cassidy Freeman) is an extremely attractive woman and she knows it. Her outfit diverges from elegant clothing to pratical skin tight outfits, as she has a lot of scenes with her practicing or working out to show off her physical prowess and athletic figure.
  • Episode "Heat" has Desirée Atkins (Krista Allen), Clark's Hot Teacher that gets him so worked up he manifests his Heat Vision for the first time, with the scene playing as if he got over-excited. She also goes Skinny Dipping in the Luthor Manor's pool and has a Sexy Surfacing Shot of her climbing out of the pool, with the camera remaining above her shoulders and is unfazed by Jonathan's presence who has to ask her to Please Put Some Clothes On.
  • "Combat" has minor villainess Athena, played by former WWE Diva Ashley Massaro. Most of the outfits she wears through the episode would qualify as Stripperiffic and the episode starts with her walking out of the shower in just a Modesty Towel, with camera gives her a lot of slow close-up shots as she's getting dressed, showing off her legs, stomach, and cleavage.
  • In "Instinct", Smallville's version of Maxima (played by Charlotte Sullivan) is even more sexed up than the original character. She arrives on Earth wearing a dark green dominatrix leather number bearing considerable amounts of skin and is a Sex Goddess who can bring men to orgasm with a single kiss. She's actually pursuing Clark in the hopes that he may be a mate that is able to handler her as she says her previous lovers didn't have the stamina to keep up.
  • Mera shows up in "Patriot", played by the gorgeous Elena Satine. She shows a fair amount of skin wearing a skin tight swimsuit that shows a lot of Navel-Deep Neckline and later wears civvies with exposed midriffs. Mera also has no qualms with taking off her swimsuit right in front of Lois to change, giving her a Naked First Impression.
• Smash:
  • As mentioned above, Katharine McPhee as Karen Cartwright. There was a reason why the song Touch Me with Karen in nothing but a bedsheet was previewed during the Superbowl.
  • Ivy (Megan Hilty) displayed some as well, considering she was playing Marilyn Monroe and even suffered a Wardrobe Malfunction during the play, that ended up making it a huge success.
• Solid Gold: The 1980s first-run syndicated musical variety series took this Up to Eleven with the (female) Solid Gold Dancers (the troupe had a couple of token males).
• The Sopranos: Adriana La Cerva (Drea de Matteo). Nary a scene at her place goes by without her being down to her underwear. She's this to the FBI stooges tasked on vigilating her, as well who lampshade this.
• Spartacus: Blood and Sand: Most of the female cast. Gratuitous female nudity abounds, with bare breasts almost everywhere.
• Special Ops: Lioness: Cruz and Aaliyah, especially the latter, are beautiful young women. The two of them are shown in swimsuits, lingerie and (non-explicitly) naked at several points, including having sex.
• Stargate Atlantis:
  • Teyla Emmagan (Rachel Luttrell). No-one else in the entire regular cast of both shows in that verse walks around the base off-duty in a low-cut, midriff-revealing top. Teyla's pregnancy (a Written-In Infirmity case due to Rachel Luttrell's) led viewers to expect it to go down significantly. It didn't — there was just more cleavage.
  • Larrin (Jill Wagner), the Traveler ship captain who likes to tie Sheppard up.
• Stargate Universe:
  • Lt. Vanessa James (Julia Benson). Hot female soldier with one hell of a rack, and her normal off-duty wear is a tank top and shorts. On-duty, however, she wears standard combat gear.
  • Chloe Armstrong (Elyse Levesque) the attractive Air Force medic that ends up naked in the ship save Censor Shadow after a power failure interrupts her sonic shower.
• Star Trek:
  • Seven of Nine (Jeri Ryan) from Star Trek: Voyager. The heels and form fitting metallic catsuit may have make it abundantly clear that she is this trope. Her look and outfit were designed by the Holo-Doc, who was in love/lust with her.
  • T'Pol (Jolene Blalock) of Enterprise, having a skintight Future Spandex and having many skin baring scenes such as a Shower of Love involving Trip. It was a clear attempt to capture the same target demographic as Seven of Nine, but fell flat in the eyes of many due to her being a very interesting character beside the fanservice.
  • Star Trek: Deep Space Nine:
    • Jadzia Dax (Terry Farrell). She's tall, leggy, got to wear the legendary Starfleet miniskirt in "Trials and Tribble-ations", got a swimsuit scene in the Beach Episode, got the first lesbian kiss in Star Trek history in "Rejoined" and wore only a Modesty Towel in "Playing God." The trope fits her like a glove.
    • This is the In-Universe reason for all dabo girls; it's easier to attract customers if the person spinning the wheel is a hot chick. And if the client is watching the girl, they're not watching the wheel. Special mention to the buxom and flirtatious Leeta (Chase Masterson) who was introduced without even the pretence of a character, unless it was The Ditz (with a "D", spell it right).
    • Nearly every female Mirror Universe character is bisexual in Deep Space Nine. Regardless, the fanservice quotient isn't quite as high in Ron Moore's Trek. (He was an outspoken critic of Seven of Nine and more or less fired from VOY.)
  • Counselor Troi (Marina Sirtis) of Star Trek: The Next Generation. Lampshaded in MAD's parody of the show by defining her power as "E.S.P. — Extra Sensual Proportions." Made even more bizarre by Troi's position as ship's counsellor, often having to discuss traumatic or emotional issues with crewmembers whilst wearing what some fans dubbed a "skin-tight bunny suit." Finally abandoned in Season 6, when temporary commanding officer Captain Jellico correctly wonders what the hell she's wearing and orders her to get into a regular uniform where she remains for the rest of the series while on duty. She would still wear her various suits in off duty situations. ^note Sirtis had lobbied for some time for Troi to wear a standard uniform instead of the outfits she had largely been wearing up to that point.
  • Star Trek: The Original Series's Uhura (Nichelle Nichols). Especially Mirror Universe Uhura. Ooh la la. Yeoman Rand made few appearances but they were always set up to show her hour glass figure.
• Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip:
  • Harriet Hayes (Sarah Paulson) who once ended up being having a Naked Freak-Out after begin caught topless and ended up with only Hand-or-Object Underwear.
  • In the show-verse, Miss Fanservice spot definitely goes to Jeannie (Ayda Field).
• Sunday Night Football: Special mention has to go to Faith Hill's intros for this show by NBC, which seem to become a more blatant application of the trope with each passing season.
• Super Sentai:
  • We've got heroines with penchant of disguises (too many to count) to heroines who likes their Furo Scene (Umeko and Ran) to those who really look that good that they become fanservice on its own by appearing on-screen (such as Jasmine, Nanami, to name a few).
  • Amy in Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger is a clear cut case. The only girl on the team, she wears short shorts, the camera focuses on her smile during unmorphed fights, and she even has a battery that can make enemies fall in love with her, making her Ms Fanservice role a plot point!
    • Ashi and Lamunea from the Gaburincho of Music movie stake their claim as evil fanservice Lovely Angels - with the legs and bust to match.
  • Ressha Sentai ToQger has this role filled not by one of the female rangers, Mio or Kagura, but rather, by Wagon, a robot assistant. Why she has this role as opposed to Mio or Kagura is justified because of The Reveal later on concerning what the ToQgers actually are.
  • The girls of Mashin Sentai Kiramager, Sayo and Sena, wear short shorts with their uniforms. Even more with Sena, a pretty shapely athlete who we see very frequently in nothing but a sports bra and short shorts.
• Swingtown: Trina Decker is often shown in little clothing, with the show going out of its way to highlight Lana Parrilla's good looks. In one scene, she dresses up as a French maid, with the camera slowly moving up her body.
• Teen Wolf:
  • Allison Argent (Crystal Reed) is a gorgeous girl with Raven Hair, Ivory Skin and an Academic Athlete that is show in skintight swimsuits.
  • Lydia Martin (Holland Roden) is a pretty Significant Green-Eyed Redhead who wears the most feminine clothing of the cast and has a lot of scenes in various states of undress. She also has many shower scenes but this is downplayed due to them usually being a Shower of Angst.
  • Malia Tate (Shelley Hennig) is an attractive, athletic, lean young woman with dark brown. She's an Unkempt Beauty with a rustic and casual fashion style and frequently ends up naked due to her Shapeshifting Excludes Clothing and lost any sense of modesty over her nudity over it.
• Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles:
  • Cameron (Summer Glau) is an attractive female Terminator and is perfectly aware of it and not above using it to her advantage. In "Something Strange at the One-Two Point", she even ends up wearing a slinky, sleeveless black dress that leaves nothing to the imagination and like all Terminator's she's also Naked on Arrival in "Pilot." There were a number of tracking shots lingering on her well-proportioned rear as she slowly, purposefully Supermodel Struts along. She also walked around wearing only a bra, boy shorts, and boots.
  • Jesse Flores (Stephanie Jacobsen) spends several scenes in swimsuits, bikinis and towels.
• The Thin Blue Line: Habib (Mina Anwar) in the episode "Honey Trap." Played for laughs, but at the same time quite a revelation given she is almost always otherwise seen in a conservative police uniform.
• Tidelands (Netflix):
  • Cal is pretty and shown multiple times in a revealing tank top, panties or topless, with a couple sex scenes.
  • Adrielle is probably the most beautiful of the female characters. She wears a revealing dress for most of her appearances with no bra underneath.
• Tipping the Velvet (2002): Nan is quite pretty, and shows a lot of nudity, including in sex scenes. To a lesser extent her first lover Kitty too, who is also beautiful (and shares many of those sex scenes).
• Top Chef: The hostess Padma Lakshmi fills this role, especially in her early seasons. Many fans expressed surprise about her tendency toward low necklines, bare midriffs, and shorts in a kitchen environment. Given that much of the viewership is female or gay, this was not as popular as one might expect, and she is now typically seen in elegant dresses.
• Trigonometry: Gemma is introduced while masturbating. Later she greets Kieran, her boyfriend, as she's gone bottomless, flashing Ray accidentally doing so. She then gets shown topless briefly while she's changing not long after this, then again in sex scenes with Kieran and Ray. Gemma's quite pretty.
• Troy: Fall of a City: Helen is very beautiful and goes topless multiple times while having sex with Paris or washing herself.
• True Blood: Almost every female in this show has appeared naked or at least half-naked on-screen at one point or another. That's the way of HBO. Of course, in some cases this is rather Fan Disservice than service.
  • Sookie (Anna Paquin) gets quite a few nude scenes, especially around the middle of the series.
  • Luna Garza (Janina Gavankar) and Rikki Naylor (Kelly Overton) are both gorgeous women who constantly end up in states of undress due to Shapeshifting Excludes Clothing. Danielle (Jamie Gray Hyder), who's very beautiful, also plays a werewolf woman, showing extended full frontal nudity.
  • Special mention to Jessica (Deborah Ann Woll), while she's one of the few characters to not do full frontal nude scenes on the show, she has plenty of Lingerie Scenes and dons a fantastic Red Riding Hood costume in season 5 too.
• Tut: Kylie Bunbury as Suhad is in two racy sex scenes as the title character's lover, nearly though not quite displaying nudity.
• UFO (1970): Lieutenant Gay Ellis (Gabrielle Drake). She is however treated as a competent professional by the men she serves with. And, of course, the female crewmembers of the SkyDiver submarines, whose tops were fishnet undershirts◊ like the men's. (Though the men were missing the fleshtone tape over the nipples, for some reason.) But that still doesn't beat Lt. Ellis' striptease change of uniform◊ in the episode "Identified."
• The Umbrella Academy (2019): Sloane's very beautiful and gets the most revealing outfits or sexy situations among the female characters. First she gets workout fanservice while exercising along with her siblings, then another extended example when she's talking with Luther. As she does so, Sloane leans over and provides a long cleavage shot (whether intentional or not). It's revealed she uses her gravity powers for sex on the ceiling with him later. Then for their marriage she wears a low cut dress that flatters her figure greatly as well.
• University Hospital:
  • All four of the young female leads (Rebecca Cross, Hillary Danner, Hudson Leick, Alexandra Wilson) in this short-lived Aaron Spelling series. In various episodes, they appeared onscreen in swimsuits, exercise leotards, lingerie, and nightgowns. They even provided fanservice when their characters were working, in very tight white uniforms with short skirts and white stockings. The series never bothered to even try to explain why the student nurses would be wearing such an outdated and impractical uniform, especially when their teaching nurse was wearing modern hospital scrubs.
  • This show sometimes went to absurd lengths to maximize the fanservice. In one scene of the pilot episode, the girls were sitting in a hot tub - while having a serious talk about how one of them had been sexually harassed and nearly raped. There was no rational reason for this scene to take place at a pool. It would have been more logical for them to have this talk in a private setting, like their apartment. It was a painfully thin excuse to show the four beautiful actresses in swimsuits.
• Utopia Falls: While all of the girls have moments wearing more revealing clothes, Brooklyn gets the most with outfits that show off her cleavage and bare stomach.
• V (1983): When the female Visitor gives Mike Donovan her uniform so he can escape the camera certainly lingers on her underwear-clad body as she takes the pants off. Even Mike can't help Eating the Eye Candy, despite already knowing the aliens are reptilian underneath.
• The Vampire Diaries: Being shown on The CW, this applies to most of the female cast.
  • Nina Dobrev plays double duty as she's Acting for Two[invoked] Ms. Fanservices Doppelgangers: Elena Gilbert and Katherine Petrova. They're both extremely attractive young women with light olive complexion and long dark brown hair with a slightly athletic physique, buxom figure and shapely legs. However, even though they both look exactly the same, their fashion style and personality differs in the kind of fanservice they provide:
    • Elena is a more casual beauty that rarely wears make-up and mostly wears sporty clothing (though She Cleans Up Nicely when she has to) such as tank tops, sleeveless blouses, mini-skirts, tight jeans, tiny cut-off shorts and simple sneakers or boots. She also got to wear many Sexy Whatever Outfit such as a Naughty Nurse Outfit for Halloween, her cheerleader outfit in school, some figure-flattering bikinis and many Pimped Out Dresses for formal events. She's also a Bathing Beauty that has many bath and Shower Scenes.
    • Katherine is much more high maintenance and trendy. She is a Proud Beauty that uses a lot of make-up with thick winged eyeliner and pin lipstick. She wears lots of Gorgeous Period Dress during flashbacks and during the present wears very skintight and provocative clothing with a Cleavage Window and a lot of jewelry. She also prefers shoes such as high heeled boots and open-toed pumps. She has has a much more flirtatious and seductive attitude with little to no modesty, getting to have many Lingerie Scenes.
  • Hayley Marshall (Phoebe Tonkin) is a beautiful werewolf vixen and Tyler's Sexy Mentor who gets many scenes where she bares skin. Played up even more in The Originals spin-off where Shapeshifting Excludes Clothing often leaves her nude and she develops a Shameless Fanservice Girl attitude.
  • Rayna Cruz (Leslie Anne Huff) the Big Bad of season 7 is an attractive Terminator Impersonator that often ends up naked due to her Resurrective Immortality leaving her Naked on Revival.
• Veronica Mars: The title character was a three-dimensional, complex character but somehow the producers found ways to put her in a cheerleading costume, a cosplay outfit, and a bikini — in addition to kissing another girl — all in the first season.
• Victorious: All four of the female stars qualify - Cat (Ariana Grande) and Jade (Elizabeth Gillies) burning up the screen in "Freak The Freak Out", Cat wearing practically nothing and getting sprayed with water during the Beach Episode "Trapped In An RV"^note originally given the much better title "Survival Of The Hottest", Tori (Victoria Justice) during several of her sexy song and dance numbers, Trina (Daniella Monet) and her short shorts and tight tops.... looks like we were wrong about iCarly being the closest you can get to this on a tween show. Hence the Crossover between the two.
• Vida: Both sisters whenever they share intimate moments with their lovers. Lyn has had a nude or sex scene in literally every episode and wears a lot of revealing outfits that show off her body.
• Westworld: Maeve (Thandiwe Newton), who appears nude in numerous scenes. Not surprisingly given she's a madam/prostitute, but many of these scenes are in the lab when she's been fixed by technicians as well.
• The White Lotus:
  • Alexandra Daddario, who's very beautiful, serves as this once again, with her character Rachel wearing many cleavage-showing tops, the camera focuses on her while she's in a bikini and being shown topless in bed with her husband.
  • Olivia and Paula clearly smirk at Rachel marrying a guy she just met and her college life not going that well. Their grins fade when she drops her robe to reveal her bikini-clad body and realize just why this woman is so popular.
  • Lucia's a gorgeous young woman, and when she goes to the hotel she wears dresses that draw many people's attention. As a prostitute, she has an active sex life, and the audience sees her topless with Albie multiple times.
• Why Women Kill:
  • All three leads are gorgeous women, but Lucy Liu's character seems to be the creators' way of saying, "Straight men, lesbians, and bisexual people everywhere... you're welcome."
  • Then there's Alexandra Daddario prancing around in short-shorts and a bikini. Notably, both Taylor and Eli consider her this in-universe.
  • Taylor also gets a scene in a black one-piece.
• The Wilds: Fatin. She's one of if not the prettiest among the girls, plus providing the only sex scenes (in her flashbacks) and the most with her scantily clad.
• The Witcher (2019): It's shown that people can cast magic while wearing clothes, but Yennefer (Anya Chalotra) does seem to have to lose hers a lot to cast stronger spells. Also she has multiple sex scenes, where she's naked or half-naked. Even with the special effects making her look unattractive in the beginning, it's obvious the makeup team was struggling to downplay the actress’s natural beauty.
• Witches of East End: Most of the female characters are Hot Witches, but some stand out.
  • Freya Beauchamp (Jenna Dewan) is a Raven Hair, Ivory Skin beauty whose endowed attributes are frequently accompanied by outfits that display cleavage. She also has the most sex scenes in the show.
  • Wendy Beauchamp (Mädchen Amick) is a sultry witch that enjoys sleeping around and often ends up in the buff, thanks to Shapeshifting Excludes Clothing. Not that she minds.
• Without a Trace: Sam (Poppy Montgomery) and Elena (Roselyn Sánchez). One might theorise an attempt at appealing to both Anglo and Latino men, or just double the pleasure for men who like both. Extra points for Sam getting pregnant with attendant increase in breast size.
• Wonder Woman (1975): Wonder Woman (Lynda Carter) herself. Rather inevitable when the show is headlined by Miss World USA wearing a strapless bathing suit.
• Xena: Warrior Princess: Plenty of the female characters ooze sex appeal. There are a number of shower/bath/hot tub scenes (Xena steals Gabrielle's clothes in one), some rear nudity and plenty of outfits are Chainmail Bikini, Form-Fitting Wardrobe and Stripperiffic. Lampshaded in the episode "A Day in the Life":
  Xena: Maybe I should switch to chainmail.
  Gabrielle: That would just attract a kinkier crowd.
  • Xena (Lucy Lawless) herself is an athletic and stunning woman with a fiery personality who never wear sleeves and her clothes very often have her legs revealed. She's also a Shameless Fanservice Girl who gets out her clothes quite often.
  • Gabrielle (Renee O'Connor) wears a green halter top and burgundy skirt; later, she switched to a red top that was barely more than a bra and a shorter matching skirt. In general her costumes kept getting skimpier as the series progressed. ^note Justified in the case of Gabrielle's top during the second season. The costume chafed, so parts of it were removed, and eventually the sleeves were cut off. Lampshaded in "Forget Me Not", when Joxer is reading Gabby's scrolls to her when she is amnesiac:
    Gabrielle: This thing I'm wearing - it keeps getting smaller?
  • Callisto (Hudson Leick), an evil Amazonian Beauty with a Chainmail Bikini that even more Stripperiffic than Xena's.
  • Aphrodite (Alexandra Tydings) is a beautiful blonde Hot Goddess who always wears revealing outfit, usually even in lingerie.
• The X Factor US: We've got Fifth Harmony for season 2, and for season 3, comes Danie Geimer & Khaya Cohen.
• The X-Files: Agent Scully (Gillian Anderson). She was initially a very downplayed example. She was the only prominent female character of the show, and she was cute enough, but she was always wearing baggy outfits and showing virtually no skin. Fox was reluctant to cast Gillian Anderson at first, wanting someone more conventionally fanservice-y, someone tall and well-endowed. However, as the series went on, she was getting exponentially hotter and wore tighter and sexier clothes. In "Never Again", aka the tattoo episode, Scully had pants halfway down, bending over, and was practically orgasmic. In the episode "En Ami", the Cigarette Smoking Man invites her to come with him, we see a) a close up of her cleavage as she adjusts her hidden microphone and b) a very revealing dress when she goes to have dinner with him.
• X-Play: Speaking of nerds, one funny recurring question in the fandom of, and a trademark Running Gag constantly sent up on this show, is whether or not Morgan Webb is an actual gamer, or just there to serve as eye candy.
• You Me Her: Emma and Izzy are both beautiful women, often shown in their lingerie or having sex (with each other or Jack).
