Some things I didn't know about Stefanie Powers:

Met Robert Wagner on the set of West Side Story (1961) prior to being let go from the cast (Jet girl) because she was too young (15).

In same ballet class as a youngster with Natalie Wood and Jill St. John, the three women all had long term relationships with Robert Wagner, Wood as Wagner's first and third wife, St. John as Wagner's fourth wife, and Stefanie as long time co-star and 50+ year friend.

Deaths of life partner William Holden and good friend Natalie Wood (wife of her Hart to Hart (1979) co-star, Robert Wagner), occurred within days of each other in November '81.

Which is why watching the episodes filmed in and around this time is such a beautiful glimpse into their friendship and connection. There are scenes that they see to be not quite 100% in character. Love these scenes.

I agree. The second half of season 3 is beautiful in that you can really see their friendship on screen and how they leaned on each other after the tragedies.
