And (in case you were thinking this) "don't think our next young lady won't be turned on by her trio of groovy guys" This was such a hard show to watch---the guys were always awkward and the answers rarely witty; not helped by the ridiculously silly prepared questions they were forced to answer "Can you say something romantic in monkey talk?" And when obviously don't have an answer, she keeps pushing them. The guys usually bombed. I love the parting gift for Madden and Taylor: an 8-track recording of the "Doctor Doolittle" soundtrack!! Dino Desi and Billy were hardly "one of America's top recording groups" by this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie: Do you have a date for this event? I researched both IMDb and tv.com yesterday - could not find. Desi's bio does not reveal his appearance; probably due to his extreme youth... Thanks if you can find it. fondly, JK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
