After reading the Buck Rogers thread, it started me remenis remani thinking about my childhood television habits.
These ladies were my first actress crushes.

     Erin Gray - Buck Rogers
     Maren Jensen - Battlestar Galactica
     Catherine Bach - The Duke of Hazzard
     Heather Thomas - The Fall Guy


Who were yours?

Get your tissues ready as you reminisce over old times   

[RossRoy]

These are my biggest - and first - starcrushes.



and one picture (with 2 women) that will make my age range all too obvious to my fellow Quebecers:



@lovemunkey:

The first women you posted (sorry, I have no idea who she is) looks eerily like Veronica Mars (Kristen Bell) on that picture.

That's Erin Gray    (Col. Wilma Deering) from Buck Rogers.

But you are right, they actually look similar

[lyonsden5]

So many to choose from...  

If I had to pick just one it would be:





(really just too tired to look for more pics   )
Honorable Mention:
Lindsay Wagner (Bionic Woman)
Barbara Eden (I Dream of Jeanie)
Elizabeth Montgomery (Bewitched)
The Already Mentioned Erin Gray (Buck Rogers)
And, as Richie posted - Farah Fawcett Majors

Last but not least - Ginger... Sorry Mary-Ann  


Then I had this weird thing for Sally Fields in the Flying Nun.... not sure what that was about...

what a brilliant thread. Top marks!

Jet from the original UK Gladiators...


Sienna Guillory. Currently in Doomsday I think, but I remember seeing her picture in magazines for a UK TV drama called Riders. Based on a Jilly Cooper book, not exactly my thing at 18... but wow. She knocked me out! Sadly I can't find an image from 1993, so look at the following and try to imagine her in riding gear. With a crop. Oh dear...


I've grown up being subjected to Emmerdale, a UK soap. It wasn't all bad... this is Kathy, as played by Malandra Burrows


April from Knight Rider...


The piercing blue eyes. The husky voice. Even at 11 years old I knew where I wanted to be when I grew up... I first saw Tanya Roberts in A View to a Kill, but she's more known for Sheena I think.


Here's my current favourite. Jess the "Sexy Swindler" from the Real Hustle:

[richierich]

Jon - you are my HERO

WE ALL LOVE JESS

She could pick my pocket any time

 

[richierich]

Oh, and an honourable mention for Victoria Principles breasts 




And anyone else have a thing for the lady below?

[Najemikon]

Jon - you are my HERO

WE ALL LOVE JESS

She could pick my pocket any time

 

The Real Hustle is great to watch because I always say, there's no way I'd ever fall for that! But then they do one where Jess is the honey trap I know deep down, she could do what the hell she liked to me. That is a fantastic photo, but she also has such a sweet nature.

Hustle

My first TV crush (we have almost the same age)

Dawn Wells - Gilligan's Island

looks very similar to Teryl Rothery
Well to my mind at least.

Don't you mean "Doomsday" starring Rhona Mitra?

[Jimmy]

Okaaaaayyyy 

It could have been worst.



I was not serious. I'm weird but not that weird 

P.s : The first crush was Alyssa Milano not Dawn Wells, I'm not 50 years old yet... At least not untill 2020

[Najemikon]

Don't you mean "Doomsday" starring Rhona Mitra?

Oops, I got me crap sci-fi's mixed up! She was in Resident Evil: Apocalypse, not Doomsday...

Rhona ain't in the same league.

[Najemikon]

Talking about Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps in t'other thread reminded me of the earthy, Northern gorgeousness of Natalie Casey...
