Television has had effects over its audiences ever since those black and white television sets were first rolled into every living room in America. But it’s the hottest babes of television that have dyed, bleached, stripped, nipped and tucked themselves and changed the attitude and dress of an entire half century of women. In celebration of these queens of television titillation, I present to you the 10 Hottest Babes that have ever graced these tubes possessed by us beer bound boobs’:
10. Barbara Eden
Barbara has done more for the bedtime adventure gear industry than anyone. What man hasn’t envisioned the XXX wishes he would have granted by the sexy “I dream of Jeannie” star. Barbara revealed more skin to families through the 1960’s than the top of William Shatner’s scalp.
9. Jennifer Aniston
Brad Pitt let this cutie from “Friends” get away and the world swooned over her girl-next-door looks and perky personality. Did I say “personality;” I was thinking about another ‘perk’ of hers. This sweet, simple girl has come around and brought new hope and values for our youth. Some girls do still wear their underwear… and wear them well!
8. Eva Longoria
I’m not sure if it’s Eva that is the bigger babe or her character, Gabrielle, of “Desperate Housewives.” She has put the word “sex” back into the vocabulary of thousands of disgruntled housewives, horny husbands, and lawn boys. With as many times as she’s said the word “vibrator” to the press, it’s just bound to be part of Sunday dinner conversation in no time!
7. Teri Hatcher
You can’t have Eva without a little Teri. She enjoys talking about sex and toys as much as Eva and has shown up to an awards ceremony in her underwear to prove it. Hot women of the world should take notice of her pathetic kissing session with Ryan Seacrest, learning that kissing frogs does in fact create a prince… or in his case a princess.
6. Marilyn Monroe
Miss Monroe put the curves back into a size 14 and made it look good! She is considered to be the original blond bombshell and is as much an iconic sex symbol today as 50 years ago. Current celebs such as Madonna and Lady Gaga have tried to simulate her look, but fail miserably.
5. Suzanne Somers
Her image as a blonde bombshell shall forever remain in the minds of the 30 something men who used to watch “Three’s Company” incognito with grandmas quilt placed strategically over their lap. Marilyn Monroe may be the original, but Suzanne created a following of hard bodied, “Thighmaster” squeezing, middle-aged babes, who are just getting into their sexual prime… Hallelujah!
4. Pamela Anderson
“My implants are definitely one of my biggest assets.” She couldn’t have said it better with a megaphone and spinning propellers on her nipples. Pamela’s breasts alone have a celebrity status that have convinced millions of women from the early 90’s to jump on the bandwagon and balloon their sagging egos with the aid of bazooms! Not much of a legacy, but she’ll take what she can get.
3. Dian Parkinson
Known for her 18 year stint as a Barker Beauty on “The Price is Right;” Dian proved to the world in 1994 that sleeping your way to the top is not always good. Filling suit against Bob Barker for sexual harassment, the case was dropped and this beauty became known more for her sexual escapades with the wicked old, dust farting game show host than her two playboy covers. The truth hurts, doesn’t it Dian!
2. Farah Fawcett
She is known for her tousled “feathered” mane that became standard for every teenager in the 1970’s. The Farah mullet however haunts the world as a pivotal low point for the mid 80’s. I’m just thankful that we had the patented “Vanilla Ice” hairdo of the 90’s to redeem ourselves… Not!
1. The “Deal or No Deal” Girls
Deal or no Deal features some of the most stunning women on television. They are not only beautiful, but intelligent. We’re talking published writers, master chefs, and members of Mensa. You don’t have to be a brainiac to be in the game, and it’s the sexy women who keep it entertaining… sounds a lot like politics if you ask me!
