Carrie - Jesse
Laura Ingalls - Little House on the Prarie
Mary Ann Summers - Gilligan’s Island

Buttercup - The Powerpuff Girls (had to have at least one cartoon, right?)
Kira II (from the mirror universe) - Star Trek: Deep Space Nine

Olentzero sez

Erm, not as far as I know. At least, I’ve never seen a credit like that. I can see the similarity in Bakshi’s style, though. Ooh…getting OT. 'Kay then, Elinore in Wizards is some beautiful. I first saw it at ten or so, and wow! Cartoons can look like that?!?

Ooo, ooo – coming back with a crush I just remembered. Andy from WKRP in Cincinnati. Man, those tight jeans and feathered hair! Woo!

Ok, I’ll admit Smurfette.

But is anyone going to say Samantha from “Who’s the Boss?”?

Then there was Kelli Martin’s character on “Life Goes On”.

Don’t forget Winnie.

Oh, and so many more.

Connor - watched WAY too much TV

Anthony Edwards ** (Dr.Green) ** from E.R… I’d say Dr. Luka, except that that’s not particularly embarrassing.

** Rudolph Mantooth ** from Emergency. Don’t know his screen name. I was, what? 10, and I thought he was a babe.

Winsor Harmon ** Thorne Forrester ** from Bold and the Beautiful, a reeeeaaally bad soap opera. He’s got that sculpted face and body that I just luv.

Parker Stevenson ** Frank Hardy ** from the Hardy Boys. Clearly the better looking brother. Thought Sean Cassidy was a wimp.

Michael Landon ** (Charles Ingalls) ** from Little House on the Prairie. What a smile!

And, finally… Bobby Sherman ** Jeremy ** from Here Come the Brides.

Elthia-- you are absolutely right about Marcus from B5. For me, I think it was the accent combined with the whole robin hood-ness about his wardrobe. I’m a sucker for a cape or long duster.

For SterlingNorth, this isn’t an anime character, but the cartoon series was japanese [a feeble conection, i know]: Rick, on “Robo Tech”. i think it was the hair and attitude… PLEASE say you know of it. It ran on Cartoon Network’s Toonami for a year, now it’s on the Midnight run… grr… damn program directors.

Hey, Guano. . . I have a friend who looks like Six from Blosson. Want me to hook you up?
As for me, I have a mad crush on Joel from Northern Exposure, and also the male lawyer from Law and Order (the one played Nick in the Robert Redford version of The Great Gatsby). And I’ve fallen for random AIDS-infected male prostitute patients on ER.

Evilbeth, Ike and me are all going to end up as pathetic losers who stalk has been Dukes of Hazzards stars. Read the details of our quick slide to wreck and ruin in the Weekly World News.

I have to mention I love Chris Stevens from *Northern Exposure. * The voice, the intellectual thinking, the piano flinging, the harley. Any day. Throw in Ed Chigliak too for pillow talk about movies and stuff.

I think Kallessa and I will have to fight over Artemus Gordon.

There was an actor on ::bowing head in embarrassment:::: *F TROOP * who I can’t remember, but was the comic foil to the tall blonde muscle guy called ( I think) Sarge. I was young and impressionable. It was before cable, ok?

Topaz - You gotta thing for the animated Robin Hood too? How totally cool! I am not alone. Wait until you see Tarzan. Whoooo hooo is all I gotta say.

Juan Epstein from Welcome Back Kotter.
Also Vinny Barbarino and Freddy “boom-boom” Washington.

Shirley, you don’t mean Corporal Agarn, do you? Larry Storch?!?!?! I guess we can chalk it up to youth and marketing, like my Haley Mills crush. Except they were pushing Ken Berry, not Storch.

Back to Little House, we cannot forget Mary (major babe, but boring, blind or not). Nor the mom (red hot!). I saw Nellie Olson on Disco Fever once (high camp) in some extremely slinky dress. Damn–she dirtied up right nice!

As for Linwood Boomer (Adam), his work writing for Night Court and creating Malcolm in the Middle burned off whatever good karma he might have built up during his years on Little House. He’s going to have to spend his next life here, with his fans.

I have a friend saw Ma Walton (Michael Learned) on a beach in California and was surprised how beautiful she was. Doy!

Shirley, I stopped in here again because I forgot to mention John Corbett! (This is rather frightening!) That man has caused me to have nastier thoughts than almost anyone else I can think of! In fact, I am hot just thinking about him!

PunditLisa–thanks for reminding me of “Here Come the Brides.” I liked the other two
brothers–what were their names? Jason? Joshua?–better than Jeremy, but I wouldn’t kick
any of them out of bed for eating crackers.

Shirley Ujust–I think the guy you’re thinking of is Larry Storch–and that really is embarassing.
That being said, I guess I should confess to being in love, when I was too young to have
developed any standards, with Trampus from the “Virginian” (Doug McClure–who is so
excellently spoofed on “The Simpsons”).

Elthia Fraser? How did I forget him?! sighs So polite and handsome.

Shirley Ujest Yes I have a thing for animated Robin Hood and Tarzan how did I forget that one? I saw him and he’s just yummy.

Lets see who else do I like?

Mr Chapel from Vengence Unlimited. (Wasn’t he the coolest? sighs he could ask me for a favour any day)

Cash from Kindred the Embraced. (He’s the Gangrel Primogen and he can drink my blood any day. Specially if its to make me his childe)

Oh I had a thing for Spiderman, the animated one in the early 80s. I still have a crush on Gambit from X-Men.

I also have a big time crush on Richard Fish from Ally McBeal. Don’t know what it is about him but something gets my engines going.

His screen name was “Johnny Gage”. FYI EMERGENCY! is now on cable channel “TVLAND” M-F @ 8PM EDT. The shows hold up pretty well, except for Dr. Brackett’s sideburns and the lack of heartless HMOs.

My picks:
ZELDA (on the “Dobie Gillis Show”)
Ginger (“Gilligan’s Island”)
Honey West (man-I had wet dreams about her!!)
Elly Mae (“Beverly Hillbillies”)and 9of course) ALL of the "Charlie’s Angels)!!
So I threw a few 60’s shows in…

Okay, I kinda like Jane on the show Daria. She seems like the perfect person for me, sarcastic, funny, and loves art!

::hangs head in shame::

Oh yeah,

Somebody mentioned Ginger Grant (Gilligan’s Island). Which reminds me that I should have put Mary Ann on my list. Dawn Wells retired to just a couple of miles from here. I wonder why I never bump into her in the mall???

Ellie Mae Clampett needs mentioning, too.
SouthernStyle

Larry Storch?! Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! :wink:

sitting off in the corner, singing

The end of the Civil War was near
When quite accidental-leeee
A colonel who sneezed
Abruptly seized
Retreat and reversed it to vic-
Tory!

His medal of honor pleased and thrilled
His proud little family group
While pinning it on some blood was spilled
And so it was planned
He’d command
F TROOP!

Where Indian fights are colorful sights
And nobody takes a lickin’
'Cos paleface and redskin
Both turn chicken…

Mmmmm…Dr. Sam Beckett from Quantum Leap. He’s still my hero.

**Gambit[/b} from The New Avengers. Yowza!

Little Joe from Bonanza. Of course nothing could come of that, because all those Cartwright boys’ ladies died wihtin 3 eps.

Giles from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. He’s much more my type than the actor, Anthony Stewart Head. And have you heard him on the acoustical guitar singing “Behind Blue Eyes”? Swoooon!
