I'm totally embarrassed by this. Knowing that he's a Republican makes me even more embarrassed.

19. I caught the first point.

(George Crumb is a weirdo in his own right, but not the subject of the movie named Crumb.)

And I was trying to remember if it was Robert or Charles who had the crush on BB. (The rabbit, not the French star.)

Yes I am aware that Johnsotn is still on TV, starring in CBS's Flashpoint, the show that's so Canadian, you can smell the back bacon coming out of your TV.

Shame what happened to Thuy Trang, there should be a three strikes law for DUI. On your third strike you are forever banned from being behind the wheel of ANY motor vehicle.

86. Speaking of that show, wasn't Barbara Stanwick always getting the living shit beat out of her?

I'm talking like 2x4s to the back of the head type fights/beatings.

What a bizarre show.

I remember reading (and laughing) at one time, that show's reruns and The Rifleman's reruns earned The Christian Broadcast Network (CBN) the rating for the most violent channel on TV.

<from http://www.aaymca.com/gloria-steinem-aaymca-dot-com-20100828/ >
Soul-searching conflict resulted: I liked her feminism, so I was confused that I wanted to indulge in sexist thinking about her

Back then I also had a terrible crush on Angela Davis, but we never met -- and so yet another of my youthful eternal loves remain unrequited

Bobby Sherman

Michael Cole

Leonard Whiting

I guess these aren't really strange, though. I had a crush on David Steinberg but I can't find a good picture of him from back in the day.

I had girl crushes on all the women that played opposite of the three pictured: Bridget Hanley, Peggy Lipton and Olivia Hussey. I really wanted to be them.

94. Here's Bobby Sherman today...

He's a sherriff in San Bernardino, California, and is justifiably proud of his music career. Seems to have aged barely a day in 40 years. In his spare time he built a model of Disneyland's Main Street in his backyard. Many more photos at http://www.bobbysherman.com/

76. I don't think either of those is that odd.

Well, Sigourney Weaver would be odd if you were me. She's the same age as my mother and not so much anymore but Aliens-era Ellen Ripley and my mother were freakishly-identical. Enough so that random people would stop my mom on the street and ask her for her autograph.

78. Melanie from the cartoon "Josie and Pussycats"

She's the drummer. :loveya:

The crush was strange, imo, because she was a cartoon character. Same with my crush on the cartoon teen Pebbles.

I watched way too much TV growing up.

93. Me too, when I was 5 or 6

I distinctly remember crushing on him. And Mickey Mouse also, strangely.

103. Mickey didn't have any muscles, so he didn't hit my radar.

Although, at puberty I had a crush on Jerry Lewis. I'm not even French.

85. I'm not sure any of my crushes were that strange

Lynda Carter as Wonder Woman, Jacklyn Smith from Charlie's Angels, the hot young babe of the week on Love Boat, Jan Brady from Brady Bunch, Joanie Cunningham from Happy Days as she got older.

I guess it was a bit odd that I like Smith over the more popular Farrah Fawcett...But, strange, I don't think so

88. Tia. It was a weird crush.

From "Escape to Witch Mountain." I was too young to really know what I was feeling, but I was so obsessed with her character that I wanted to be her brother. :) I used to lay in bed at night and stare at the light switch, trying to turn it on with my mind, thinking if I tried really hard enough I could be like her. When they did the sequel I almost fainted from joy. :)

BTW, she's Paris Hilton's aunt.
