Song of the Day: 'Johnny Angel' by Shelley Fabares
Shelley Fabares popped up on a "Newhart" episode we were watching the other night and it got me thinking of all of the people who were once huge stars that the vast majority of people today have never heard of. (See also: Ryan O'Neal, Tab Hunter, Lee Majors, etc.) Starting with her starring role as daughter Mary Stone on the long-running "Donna Reed Show" she then topped the charts with "Johnny Angel" starred in three films with Elvis Presley, made countless sitcom appearances (including two seasons on Garry Marshall's Hawaii-set "Brian Keith Show," née "The Little People") and eventually portrayed Christine Armstrong for nine seasons on the show "Coach," yet I don't think anyone under 50 could pick her out of a lineup.
P.S. She was splendid as Dick Loudon's former "ember," whose presence sets (lookalike) Joanna on edge, which likely led to the "Coach" role.
