POWIP Piece of Work In Progress – Former Abode of Dan Collins

18Oct/101

RIP Barbara Billingsley

I've always thought she was the best TV mom ever. The H2 has her very memorable jive appearance on Airplane. Florence Henderson was just plain weird, going on TV shows decades after The Brady Bunch to talk about how groundbreaking it was that she was filmed in bed with her fictional husband. Then there's her affair with "Greg Brady." Shirley Jones' mascara swerved so far into Liza Minnelli in Cabaret territory that her eyes verged on Sixties op-art bathtub grip flowers.

Nope. Give me Mrs. Cleaver and her collared dresses and pearls. She would have been at the Tea Party, trying to get Eddie Haskell thrown out of the Senate.

June: Ward, where's the Beaver?
Ward: Heh heh.

For more female beauty, go check out Classic Liberal's Fascistic Internet Creep with Liz Hurley. Her face has a lot more character than such creatures as Megan Fox. She's really unusual looking for a beauty, but that makes her more beautiful.

I often thought of Barbara at college, because of Billings-Lee:

Dan Collins

Dan Collins is a dude who blogs. He used to blog elsewhere. Now he blogs here.

  1. When I was a kid I had a ton of imaginary friends, 6 of which being the Brady Kids. Well, up until my imaginary boyfriend, Tommy, ran off to California with Cindy.

    But now I just think all the Bradys are really weird.
