Separated at Birth?

Jessie the Cross-Eyed Bitch on "NYC Prep" and Pamelyn Ferdin, aka Lucy Winters, the girl who sent Jan into an "only-child-wig-buying frenzy" on "The Brady Bunch" and later played Felix Unger's prissy daughter, Edna, on "The Odd Couple." (Prior to that, Ferdin provided the voice of Lucy Van Pelt in a bunch of the Charlie Brown movies, a character not unlike Miss NYC Prep.)

Ferdin lacks Jessie's mouth-breathing, speech impediment style ...

  1. That's an insult to Pamelyn...but thanks for bringing her up or I never would have remembered her name. I was fascinated with her and the WITCH MOUNTAIN kids and several others.

  2. Pamelyn Ferdin also RUINED the wonderful character of Jenny Picalo on "Happy Days". But I don't blame her, I blame the writers. Her charcter should NEVR have been shown onscreen. She should have remained off-camera like Maris was perfectly portrayed on "Frazier".

  3. Please forgive my horrible spelling in the above post... I was ravaged with post-traumatic stress from the memory of Pamelyn Ferdin!

  4. Nojo: Wasn't that Cathy Silvers, Phil's daughter? (They look nearly identical.)

    And you're sooooo right about that being a character better unseen.
