Peter Tork. Kind of unfair imho how The Monkees got slagged for not playing their own instruments on their recordings, given that we we’ve since learned that The Wrecking Crew played on most pop recordings of that era.

Otherwise known (by old people) as Jessica Tate.

Edit to add: Holy shit, I'm older now than she was when Soap finished its run.

Maybe my weirdest crush (not super weird really, but still) when I was a kid. I honestly didn't realize she was still alive.

That's where I first saw her, but I think Soap when I think of her. That's probably because I watched the entire series over Memorial Day 1994.

You had Alyssa Milano on screen but went for woman who would have been her step-grandmother?

I had the same crush.

She was also great in the movie "Brazil."

Considering she is 4 years older than me, and her character was the same age as me, I'd say that was a healthy crush.

Fair enough. I forget I’m older than some/most of you. Crush away.

Jon Erik Hexum.

And I am proud to say that I knew this fact off the top of my head.

Post by **brian** » Fri Mar 08, 2019 5:31 pm

At least I'm not crazy. Though I somehow am constantly surprised to see people still acting that I thought were dead. (The most recent one was Stephen Dorff in True Detective S3 until I realized the person who died I was thinking of was Brad Renfro.)

Wracked my brain,.. but it's not coming.

I do remember that Jennifer O'Neil was part of the show - or a movie he had been in.
