How many guys who reached puberty in the late 60's
... had a thing for actress Angela Cartwright, who played the younger sister on Lost in Space? She was only a few years older than I, and I think my entire female aesthetic (short, small, long dark hair...) was formed because I was noticing her interesting bits just as I noticed that I had an interesting bit.
We talk of Ginger and Mary Ann (and Jeannie, who takes the crown), but I wonder how many guys were weird like me, and thought little Penny Robinson was just the girl I wanted under the Christmas tree? But I didn't like her big sister at all. And anyway, she was already taken.

Ah, this game could go on forever.
Another addition to the names should be Carol Merrill, the gal from Let's Make a Deal. A real cutie. She and Monty were reuinited on a talk show about 20 years after, and Monty jumped up and practically ran across the stage to hug her when he found out what was behind Door Number 3.

but the only female character I remembered was Lottie, because she was like the Miss Kitty character on Gunsmoke. LOL. I also remember Jason, Jeremy and Joshua, but for some reason I don't remember Bridget Hanley at all. But after looking her up, her character name, Candy, does ring a bell, however faint.
