biggest BABE of the original TZ ?


for me it's gotta be Jess-Belle (Anne Francis) with the girl who played the ballerina in "Five Characters search for an exit" aka Susan Harrison close second !

Pamela Austin "Number 12 Looks Just Like You"

Inger Stevens - The Hitch-Hiker

Sherry Jackson?

reply

aw man that actor James Best played with her AND the cast of Jess-Belle. hehe lucky fella

reply

Inger Stevens is up there, but if I had to pick one actress there's no question: Jean Marsh as Alicia in 'The Lonely' from Season 1.

reply

Really? I know we all have our own preferences but I thought she was a real woofer!

Great episode though.

reply

I'd say it's a tie between Jean Marsh and Hazel Court, myself.

reply

I didn't know her name when you posted that, but when I ran some scenes of good looking women in TZ through my mind for this thread, Hazel Court's face popped in my head. In that episode, she was clearly more matronly, but very beautiful and classy. Good call.

I just now Googled images of Jean Marsh in case the TZ episode did an odd makeup job on her because she played a robut (their pronunciation), and I am more convinced than ever she's just not a good looking woman!:

reply

Hazel Court plays the secluded diva @ "The Fear" but her attractiveness I'd say comes from that bitchy New Yorker attitude and femme-fatale vibe. That copper was into it know what i'm sayin'

reply

I don't usually pass judgement on woman who qualify as "babes" but here are three that qualify as drop dead gorgeous:

Suzanne Lloyd in "Perchance to Dream"
Pippa Scott in "The Trouble with Templeton."
Dee Hartford in "The Bewitchin' Pool."

reply

Yes. Pippa Scott was adorable. I also thought Sarah Marshall from "Little Girl Lost" was very attractive.

reply

Elizabeth Montgomery.

reply

prekrasny :)

reply

Inger Stevens (The Hitch-Hiker & The Lateness of the Hour)

Anne Francis (Jess-Belle & The After Hours)

Jean Marsh (The Lonely)

Susan Oliver (People Are Alike All Over)

Elizabeth Montgomery (Two)

reply

true! i forgot about Susan Oliver.. too bad that dude couldn't be locked in with her @ the zoo ;)

reply

She looked very beautiful indeed and that's an underrated episode IMO.

reply

yah agree it's almost like you want them to be different and then once that dude realized the "house" was a set and he was pretty much in prison the effect is pretty darn good!

reply

I hadn't seen Jess-Belle in years and SyFy just had it on this past weekend. I think you might be right.

reply

Anne Francis is my favorite, with Lois Nettleton as Norma in "The Midnight Sun" a close second.

reply

Don’t be stupid, Elizabeth Montgomery takes the title

reply

Okay, I will heed your caution about being stupid, but Anne Francis was the hottest.

reply

I gotta' agree with that. Everybody listed is beautiful, but Anne Francis had me stopping the stream to find out who she was.

reply

Anne Francis is very much in the top 3

reply

Check out "Forbidden Planet." She has a prominent role in that movie.

reply

She looks great in the mannequin episode.
