What was the obsession with Lola Falana? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

It seemed that the writers constantly placed her name in the script. It's like they had a crush or something. lol

You posted her picture and still asked that question?-lol Look how beautiful she was during that era? I think she was mentioned on sanford and son too

that is not a good pic of her. there are more beautiful pics of her. She was like the HALLE BERRY of the seventies. I mean, her name was referenced alot on shows...she is tall, beautiful, an entertainer...i wonder what happened to her? I heard a rumor that she got very sick.

Now what does that say about her beauty? Even though you said that's nice a good picture, I still think she looks hot. So can you imagine how good she would look if a GOOD PICTURE was posted?-lol

well what I was referring to is that there had to be way better pics than that one on the net.

Brian, was this the only pic you found? is that why you asked what was so special abt her? it may be Brian only saw this pic and based his opinion on this black and white pic.

BTW she is suffering from MS. So sad. I had heard a rumor that she was very sick. I wasn't sure if it was MS, but the internet mentions it.

I remember a photo of her where she is wearing a tight long white dress that shows off those dancing legs of hers. I can't find it on the net though.

I know she had MS, and I think she's very religious and involved in the ministry in some way.

...but from what my parents told me about her and so forth, it appears that she was one of the most significant black bombshells of the Seventies decade...
Fred Sanford and JJ Evans even made THAT point ultra-clear! LOL

I dunno, though. There just had to be others during that time, besides Lola...

In the pic brian posted, she looks like that actress that played "Get Christie Love"...
