I fell in love with Dana Delany the first time I saw her on China Beach. The scary thing is that I was only about 7 years old when China Beach debuted. I still think she's one of the most beautiful women on TV or in movies.

Tiffany Amber-Thiessen also makes my list but I think she makes just about everyone's list. The girl who played Lisa (Lark Voorhees?) on Saved by the Bell was pretty good looking too.

I can't believe I'm the first person to mention her!!!
Me neither. She was helluh-hot.

As for Amy Jo Johnson, I sincerely hope she was the ONLY reason any of you ever watched Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.

Well, for any guy who hit puberty in the mid '70s, there's the trinity of course.

Especially Jaclyn Smith.

Closely followed by Kim Richards (Ruthie Alder on Hello, Larry).

Who was the first Knightrider mechanic, Bonnie ??? She was pretty nice to stare at, so was the 2nd mechanic too.

Amanda ??? (married Corbin Bernsen)and her English accent was a turn up for me (from the Flash TV show).

I grew up as well watching Different Strokes but she never really did anything for me. Maybe because she played a goodie-goodie. I thought she was cute but not a babe. When I was 11 or 12, my eyes were glued to the older, 20 or 30-something babes for the most part (as you can see from my list above) - at least on tv.

I liked her at first, but then Susan Ashley (long blonde hair, always wore "Body Glove" clothes, and uh...wiggled) made me forget about her, but Kari is one of the few that I liked as a teen and still do.

Oh how could I forget...Dian Parkinson from The Price is Right. Those were some of my fondest memories when I was sick and couldn't go to school. I would always pray that they gave away a hot tub or sailboat in the Showcase just so she would be in a bikini.

Hey, am I the first to mention Cassiopea (Laurette Spang) from Battlestar Galactica? I remember thinking she was a total babe. Uh, wait, I still think she's a total babe...

Jacklyn Smith from Charlie's Angels, of course, although I also liked Cheryl Ladd.

And Janet (Joyce DeWitt) from Three's Company. (Yeah, I know, but there was just something about her...)

Errr... guess I'm showing my age here...

I think that the goodie-goodie thing was part of what I liked about her!

Ooh, ooh... Leah Rehmini, when she was on Saved By The Bell (she was the daughter of the owner of the beach club that the gang worked at, and ended up getting with Zack). Now she's on King of Queens, and looks just as good, if not better.

Your standards must be pretty low if a Red X will make you go hubba hubba.

Well, I grew up without cable TV, so all I can say is thank God for PBS, Dr. Who, and Leela!
