OK, so this one will be obscure. Jan Smithers' only role of note was the geeky (but sneaky cute) girl in the late 1970s-early 1980s TV show
WKRP in Cincinnati. I always thought they had to work really hard to hide the fact that she was a lot hotter than the "hot" girl on the show, the blonde bombshell Loni Anderson.
Here she is, a decade earlier, as a 16 year-old model on the cover of
Newsweek. Whatever happened to that magazine, by the way?
I'd like to be the guy riding Jan Smithers around! I can picture it; Music by Beach Boys or Jan & Dean. Fun little motorbike. Campfire on beach at night! Awesome!!!
