June 26, 1987, my birthday. Ladd was my then-celeb crush, and I'd just begun watching LN that year, so my ears sure perked up at THAT random confluence! My aunt indicated Ladd, although I can better envision Roberts struggling to parry and thrust with DL. (Or, ahem, Fawcett!)

Just skimmed through the night before. Nothing. Will check the 24th later. And I loves the specific dates. Makes searching all the more easier.

Date accuracy FTW. It'd solve a 30-year mystery, this. But as a caution: your earlier notion may be right, it might've been a passing reference. Or, my aunt mistook Struthers (6/10), or someone, similar for CA alum. On another note: I salute you and your work, sir. Very worthy!

Thanks; it beats having a life. Or not. (Watching 6/24 now.)

6/24 done. Nope.

Well, I'm striking out here. Nothing all week. Sure it was 1987?

My aunt said (not without mirth), "oh, he can be so mean! One of those poor [blonde?] girls from Charlie's Angels, just rattled her so." Mid-'87, Hack had a drama, Ladd TV movies, Roberts a recent Bond girl. I dismissed FF, a known commodity who'd likely've been referred by name.

Shelley Hack on LN, 10-10-84 intro: "my first guest tonight, a talented actress, a very attractive young woman. She actually started her career at the age of 14 as a model; on television, she was one of 'Charlie's Angels,' but then again who wasn't."
