While sitting in my dentists chair and watching "The Island" I was struck by the fact that 20 years after watching the sitcom, I came to the conclusion that Lovee was a BABE!. Was i getting more mature? My dentist laughed and said that she was in her 70's when this show came out. CAN IT BE??? Am I turning into a reverse-pedophile? Does anyone know her real age so I can win the bet and come to my senses? :eek:

Her real age was a well-kept secret that didn't come out until after she passed away. She was about 91 when she died in the early 90s, seems to me she passed away around 1991 or 1993, so that would have put her in her mid sixties when the show aired. Hope that helps! :wave:

I found this from www.dead-or-alive.com...
