Judy Carne and Goldie Hawn from Laugh-in Valerie Bertinelli from One Day at A Time Karen Valentine from Room 222 About every guest female from Love American Style Laurie Walters (Joannie Bradford) from Eight is Enough. Whatever you didnā€™t see of her on TV you could see in The Harrad Experiment. ---

Erin Grey in Buck Rogers, but NOT Silver Spoons (I hated that Ricky kid coz I knew too many like him AND he was that much closer to Erin Grey than I ever would be) Bailey from WKRP Mr. Kotterā€™s wife I think the last ones were Minerva Mink from Animaniacs and Catwoman from the Batman cartoon in the early 90s. Oh, my golly, those cartoons were not made for kidsā€¦or else I was REALLY lonely. ---

Ross Martin as Artemus Gordon. Just way cooler and moreā€¦interesting than Jim West could ever be. Probably helped seeing him as Baron Von Schtupp in ā€œThe Great Raceā€ numerous times on TV as well. ---

[QUOTE=Hazle Weatherfield] Aliceā€™s Son (was it Jimmy McNichols) [/QUOTE] No, it wasnā€™t Jimmy (brother of Kristy) McNichol, but Philip (brother of Nancy) McKeon. As for me: Echoes of the Maureen (Marcia Brady) McCormick, Valerie (Barbara Cooper) Bertinelli, and Farrah when she was still Fawcett-Majors nominations. Even before _Charlieā€™s Angels_, I was aware of Farrah from [Noxzema commercials](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NVHw4UFhIv0) (link is a YouTube video) and an episode of [_Appleā€™s Way_.](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0513943/) Also the Bradley girls (especially Lori ā€œBobbie Joā€ Saunders) from reruns of _Petticoat Junction_. ---

Iā€™ll second those who mentioned Fred Savage from The Wonder Years and Marc-Paul Gosselaar from Saved by the Bell. Always had a weak spot for cute and nice. But my main crush was Johnny Depp in 21 Jump Street. Heā€™s still on the top of my list so I guess you can say weā€™ve grown up together in a way. šŸ˜‰ ---

[QUOTE=RandMcnally] The Pink Ranger from The Power Rangers. I was in the first grade and I had a crush on her. [/QUOTE] Only one and a half votes for the pink power ranger?! Iā€™m not sure Iā€™ll be resubscribing next year, itā€™s just, I canā€™t fathom this. And I hope youā€™re talking about the original one (Amy Jo Johnson) and not that bitch with the British accent that came after her. When I learned she did a brief topless shot in a movie I couldnā€™t netflix that movie fast enough and masā€¦ something like a motherfuck. That reminds me, I need to go back and check on a Holly Hunter-related thread. Pink Power Ranger: case closed. (oh, and **Angua** , ā€œCall me Will.ā€) ---

I was stricken by Lt. Ellis on UFO: purple hair, form fitting outfit, huge eyes, eye makeup applied with a trowel ā€“ whatā€™s not to like? (And does Lt. Ellis look like a living precursor for every anime cutie ever, or what?) (Check out one of the closeups of Lt. Ellis and the shot of her changing clothes in IDENTIFIED from the character photos page if this link doesnā€™t work) [http://ufoseries.com/character/ellisClothesChange.jpg](http://ufoseries.com/character/ellisClothesChange.jpg) [Character Photos](http://ufoseries.com/character/index.html) I was also quite stricken by Skydiver Operative Georgina Moon, but I think it was mostly the uniform. Mostly. (Check out the photo of Skydiver operative Georgina Moon from the Character photos page if this link doesnā€™t work.
