>>>Ah, Marcia Strassman. One of the TV crushes of my youth. I think it was the glasses.<<<

Check her out as Nurse Cutler in the first 4 seasons of MASH...

I was shocked to see the pic of him from the TVLand Awards. He looked so old and shrunken (probably because of his heart troubles). According to the article, it seemed liked he knew his time was short and he gave up on his dreams for future projects. :-(

If you liked her, then you were probably a Bailey Quarters guy, too. They both had that naughty librarian thing...

Me too. To be reminded of some other names from that era give a listen to the Mama’s and the Papa’s Creeque Alley:

Whoa... So that’s Epstein on the far right? He looks a tad chubby.

Juan Epstein was my favorite. Voted most likely to take a life.

The Puerto Rican Jew?

I haven’t seen that show in years, I used to watch it as a kid on Nick at Nite.

RIP.
