What a small world. Wonder how wally made it without her.

I didn't remember she was on Donna's show.

These teen character actors really made the rounds. Candy Moore was on Beaver once, had two roles on Donna, and had a regular role on The Lucy Show. And probably other shows.

Here is how I would rank the attractiveness of some of the women who appeared on The Donna Reed Show, based on when their beauty was at its apex:

1. Candy Moore: OMG, it was tough to rank Candy above Cheryl but currently I can't deny her overall hotness so to speak. Wally on LITB was smitten with her for good reason. Lovely girl-next-door appeal. Well-chosen for The Lucy Show cast.

2. Cheryl Holdridge: So high on the cuteness scale. Memorable Bewitched and Rifleman appearances among many others. Consistently hot.

3. Shelley Fabares (Mary Stone): Shelly's hotness peaked in the period when she appeared in the made-for-TV movie Brian's Song on into her starring role in The Brian Keith Show / The Little People. Super-long hair on the Keith series, remarkably appealing.

4. Donna Reed: Younger Donna from films had the star looks, very pretty face.

5. Brooke Bundy: Looking her best on Lassie and My Three Sons, with longer silky hair.

Candy Moore, thats what her name is.

Brooke is my girl from that era.

Cheryl and shelley are cute, but for me, the staying power isn't there.
