![]() My dad tried to placate my adolescent upset by telling me the stamped envelope – still with its letter in – was worth more money than a signed photo, but it didn’t work. I duly wrote to them, but the nearest I got to a signed photo was a return to sender from Vaughn via Hollywood. ![]() The TV world is full of gorgeous actors, in my teens, the previously mentioned Larry Hagman, Robert Wagner and Robert Vaughn were adored from afar. Unless you can include autobiographies in which case, Larry Hagman continued to reign from his Dallas days closely followed by Jack Nicholson if his unofficial biography is to be believed. ![]() So onto books, as I mainly read biographies and autobiographies these wouldn’t be eligible for this blogathon, so what about fiction? I did fancy Holden Caulfield from Catcher in the Rye (1951) as a teen, but no literary crushes since then. If you click on these links for my reviews of these, do you think it shows? It also discludes my then teen idol, Andrew McCarthy in practically all of his roles in Brat Pack films from Class (1983) to Fresh Horses (1988). Most fall into the actor, not character category, thus eliminating Jack Nicholson (circa his One Flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest days of 1975) and Leonardo DiCaprio (from his role in The Great Gatsby(2013) and most of his roles ever since). This is unlike Bobby – the equally attractive Man from Atlantis (1977-78) star Patrick Duffy – who was often more suitably attired with more showings of his six-pack than Jason Statham has in his career to date so far.įalling for a fictional character is difficult. He was always fully clothed as he was pushed in by little brother Bobby or another character during a fight. was a bit of an unlikely sex symbol for all with legions of star-struck fans, despite the fact he often kept his clothes on in the pool. Two notable culprits behind two different shootings were ex-wife Sue Ellen (Linda Gray) and her sister Kristin, who also happened to be his one-time mistress. I still haven’t seen the reboot so can’t tell you what happened there, but this post is about his character in the original series. In thi s prime time soap series, he was hated so much that he was shot 4 times in this television lifetime. Yet for the majority, he was the man most people loved to hate. Ewing (Larry Hagman) from his days in the original series of TV’s Dallas (1978-91) was the object of my affection when I was a wee girl.
