I always loved her as a guest on Letterman because he was so smitten with her, he’d become a stammering idiot.

ETA: and Young Frankenstein. I remember watching that around age 7, and feeling really excited/embarrassed with her ample cleavage spilling out as she rolled in the hay. Didn’t get the joke until years later, but it was a memorable scene for a young Sybian.

She was also in an episode of Star Trek, the was originally supposed to be a backdoor pilot for a spin-off series, featuring a human from the future named "Gary Seven".

feel like i could have written all of this as well, Syb. Was roughly the same age watching Young Frankenstein and definitely had some funny feelings there. "What great knockers!"

Her Late Night appearances in the mid-late 80s were fantastic - although as I'm typing this didn't Dave have her *shower* during the show? Am I remembering this right - like... at 15 that was hilarious but ... yikes :shock:

I think I read where she told Gene Roddenberry on set the short skirt she was wearing was short enough (he wanted it to be altered further). She said he gave off a creepy vibe.

The woman from Columbia Pictures moving logo (and subsequently stills) was paid something ridiculous like $13 and they still use her likeness 100 years later.
