Maren Jensen is the hot brunette:

Laurette Spang is the hot blonde:

I think they’re both incredible.

I always liked Bonnie in _Knight Rider._  
And Amy in _The A Team._  
And Lindsay Wagner as _Jaime Summers._  
And Janet in _Three’s Company._  
And 99 in _Get Smart._

I bet there’s more…

Since we seem to have drifted into the 1970’s, how about: **Valerie Bertinelli**

I really liked the redhead from _Petticoat Junction_ - you know, the one with the great pitching arm? Too bad she was only into men…

(Anthracite drifts away, dreaming of a Technicolor TV lesbian romance…)

Now _there’s_ an album title just waiting for an opportunity.

Well speaking of the 70’s how about Lynda Carter as Wonder Woman, and Loni Anderson before she was forever despoiled by Burt Reynolds?

Back to the sixties. C’mon everyone, where’s the clamor for Judy from Lost in Space? Rowr! (sp?)

You know **Sputnik** , I was going to say Judy, but I thought that’d make me look like a pervert. She’s how old?

Anyhoo, I finally came up with the ultimate gal. **Barbara** , Valerie Bertinelli, from One Day At A Time.

::Ahh, man. I always thought my deeply troubled, but damn fun ex-gf kinda resembled her, but now I’m convinced. I was typing this and forgot her damn name. -I blocked on it actually-. I went to a “Everything about ODAAT” site and looked around and am now depressed. Dammit all.::

She was dating pilot Don West in the show, so she must have been older than everyone’s sweetheart Valerie Bertinelli was on the early One Day at a Time episodes.

Judy of “Lost In Space” was played by actress **Marta Kristen**. According to the Internet Movie Database, she was 20 when the show began in 1965. Perhaps it was the effects of near-light speed space travel that made her look so young.

Speaking of cuties on “Lost In Space”, in one episode there was an alien girl who floated around outside the ship; chanting “Handsome, pretty handsome Dr. Smith”. Who was she?

**CnoteChris** may have been mixing up Judy with Penny Robinson, who was probably 12-15 during the run of _Lost in Space._

She WAS cute though, and I don’t mind admitting it because I was 5-8 during the run of the show, so she was the “older woman” for me.

Another **Daisy Duke** man here. _Dukes of Hazzard_ ran during the time that I was in college, so it was definitely a _guilty_ infatuation. “A chesty brunette with legs four miles long who dresses in spike heels, hot pants and nylons? What a terrible denigration of all womanhood by the imperialist running dog patriarchy! Uh, move over, could you, you’re blocking the view.”

It’s a shame that show was so INCREDIBLY stupid…very difficult to sit through an entire episode just for the eye candy.

Someone should market a video of Daisy-only clips, they’d probably sell a million copies.
