Troop, when will you poll on the other great TV rivalry?Jennifer or Bailey?


It's on the list of future poll questions. Along with Jeanie vs Bewitched, Get Christie Love vs Angie Dickerson the Police Woman, and Rooster from Barreta, Huggy Bear from Starsky & Hutch and Barack Hussein Obama from Chicago.

The shows were full of seventies fashions. It is going to be a rough year if women follow that trend. I hope they don't but you never know.

Trooper York said...

Oh and "I like short shorts."

None of that anti-shorts crap on Trooper York.

Well I don't mean on Trooper York.
I mean on Loni Anderson.... That's something we can all get behind...... I don't mean we can all get Loni Anderson's behind.... oh crap you know what I mean.

blake said...

Yes, we all know what you mean.

And it doesn't work out well for you at all.

Don't you remember the Althouse-as-Smithers look?

An Edjamikated Redneck said...

Thanks Troop!

I should have known you'd be on top of good lookin' women!


Wait, did that come out right?

"Don't you remember the Althouse-as-Smithers look?"

Remember it? It infuses my every other dream.

An Edjamikated Redneck said...

That was about the same era too, wasn't it? Early '80s?

blake said...

I was about go on about how Althouse looks nothing like Waylon Smithers (except maybe the glasses) when I remembered what we were talking about.

Nichevo said...

Whaddya, kidding? At least Bailey looked like she might be clean!

Trooper York said...

And I would want a clean broad because.....I mean personally I was looking for dirty girls in those days, but hey that was me.

Trooper York said...

You know who was always a heroe of mine. Herb Tarlick. I mean he was an ugly guy with ugly clothes and he wasn't cool but he still was out there hitting on the most beautiful doll out there. Now that's someone to emulate.

(I think that was the most that Jennifer ever did with him at that Christmas party).

Ruth Anne Adams said...

I wonder if there's a parallel from every one on "WKRP" to a charater on "Gilligan"

Mary Ann = Baily Quarters
Jennifer Marlowe = Ginger

But what to do with the rest??

Johnny, Venus, Andy, Herb, Les Nessman, The Big Guy? I don't think it'll be a one-to-one comparison.

Nichevo said...

Well then we needn't fight... seriously, though, maybe the VD was more benign then? But SRSLY, Loni = implants, no? Really, she never did it for me.

Bailey by contrast was nice and fresh, and the way she hid her light under a bushel, behind those glasses, made you want to see more. A depth which made Loni look impossibly flat.

I would love to see Bailey nude. Loni Anderson, you feel like you already have.

Actually, the perfect analogy for Gilligan's Island is the Seven Deadly Sins.

Mr. Howell = Greed

Again obvious.

Mrs. Howell = Sloth

She never actually did anything, even trapped on a desert island.

Ginger = Lust

Embodied.

Marianne = Envy

How could she not be, with Ginger around getting all the attention?

Professor = Pride

Come on. Guy could build a nuclear power plant out of coconuts and palm fronds. Tell me he wasn't proud.

Skipper = Rage

Obviously. He was always mad about something.

That leaves gluttony. But surely Gilligan can't be gluttony. That sounds like the fat ol' Skipper, too.

So, then, what's Gilligan? Gilligan is Satan, and he's trapped the rest of them on the island as punishment for their sins!

(I read this somewhere.)

I once saw Beetle Bailey nude.

It was not a pretty sight.

Meade said...

I vote for lust.
