Oh I how miss the hot sluts of 80s Tv
I think it was TV Guide that called it TV's jiggle war. There was an article which compared and contrasted the bounce of the various female leads in the mid 0s onward, from the Bionic Woman to Wonder Woman. I wish the article was online, it traced the changes in body type and overt sexuality as the networks battled for ratings. Each new TV season brought new opportunities for well endowed women to run and jump on screen. There were women who played up their sexiness before the mid 70s, such as Batman's Catwoman and Ginger on Gilligan's island. But they weren't shown running and jumping while wearing tight outfits. At least not on a regular basis.
Amazing what little tidbits of information will stick with someone. That article was about 30 years ago and I remember parts of it. It was very relevant to my interests at the time.
