Awwww, it's been years since I've seen this episode, but I am a HUGE Lee Purcell fan and I remember liking her in this episode. She is ageless, btw. Check out her Facebook page.

I don't have much to say, because it's been awhile, but this episode reminds me of a great Riptide episode about a marine biologist whom Boz falls for, but she goes for the Joe Penny character. There are some hilarious and great moments in there. Dolphins were all the rage in the 80s!

I always love to hear about the targets of your fandom Amanda! I mean, who else but you would identify as a "huge Lee Purcell fan?" I love it!

Actually, I'm a big fan of Lee Purcell myself, ever since seeing Valley Girl. Smile

I too enjoy your comments Amanada, and your blog. This is off topic, but I watched The Girl Most Likely to... after reading about it on your blog and really had a fun time. What a little treasure! Before that I saw Moving Target. And just recently I watched Cocaine: One Man's Seduction, with Dennis Weaver from Magnum P.I.'s Let Me Hear the Music. That was very good too. I've also seen Murder Is Easy with Bill Bixby of Incredible Hulk fame, but it seems you haven't mentioned that one on your blog yet (gasp!). I wish Netflix carried more old TV movies. They're often hard to find, and I don't have a way to comfortably watch movies online. Anyways, keep up the great work!

Hey Styles and Rubber Chicken!

I had no idea my fandom squealings reached so far! Smile The comments made me smile. Thanks!

And thanks so much RC for checking out my blog. I have not seen Murder is Easy, nor have I heard of it! It's on the list! I actually still haven't seen Moving Target yet, but I have a copy. Thank you for reminding me about it... I do love Jack Wagner. It's true!

I do really like Lee, and yes, she was so good in Valley Girl. She was in this TV movie called Summer of Fear (aka Stranger in Our House) only a few years before Valley Girl and she played a teenager. How funny was it for me to see her as someone's mom in VG? Wow.

Thanks Amanda, I've saved Stranger in Our House on Netflix in case it's ever made available there.

I also enjoyed seeing Lee Purcell in The Rockford Files' episode The Dexter Crisis (available to view online). She isn't the main co-star however, and it was a bit difficult for me to even recognize her at first. I loved Big Wednesday when I saw it maybe five years ago, but now I can't even picture her in the movie. I've seen her in various other TV shows, and I'm looking forward to seeing her appearances in Hawaii Five-O (1976 & 77).

Funny that she played a teenager when she was about 30 years old. If it was eight years later she could have hooked up with Alan Ruck from Ferris Bueller's Day Off who was 30 when he played Cameron Frye. Smile

...or the cast of Beverly Hills 90210!

She was also in Mr. Majestyk with Bronson. That makes her ok in my book. Wink

Ahh, there she is! I've also seen Mr. Majestyk, but that was closer to 10 years ago so I can't picture her in that movie either. Guess I'll just have to see both Big Wednesday and Mr. Majestyk again. Smile
