Itatí Cantoral Vs. Audrey Meadows

Propaganda

Itatí Cantoral - (María la del Barrio) - People might not know her name or have seen her show, but they’ve seen the memes

Audrey Meadows - (The Honeymooners) - She had a great sarcastic bite that set her apart from the other TV housewives of the era. Pop culture remembers her show as the one where the husband threatens to hit her for laughs, but when I actually watched the show I was struck by how the joke was really that for all her husband's bluster, it was clear who really ran the household.

Itatí Cantoral:

Everyone’s been asking what this is about, so:

Soraya is the lady and she is the villain of the show, she used the guy, who is obviously younger to get revenge on her enemy who is his mom and dad. The girl in the wheelchair is her stepdaughter, who’s father she had killed to take their money and she hates her obviously. She hates all of them, especially after that kiss and vows to kill them all.

Pamela Anderson Vs. Loretta Swit

Propaganda

Pamela Anderson - (Baywatch) - She is the 90s

Loretta Swit - (M*A*S*H) - I started watching MASH last year and was immediately struck by Swit's performance, it's genuinely one of my favorites on TV ever (the episode "The Nurses" is one of my favorites from her). In addition to acting, she's also been a competitor on a lot of game shows, is an animal rights activist, and wrote a book about needlepoint, which is rad.

Loretta Swit:

She was nominated for an Emmy in every season of M*A*S*H's eleven-season run except for the first!

her character's name is margaret houlihan but her nickname is hot lips. I beg you to watch this video link below because it's basically a compilation of her telling misogynistic men where to put their prejudices and doing her best to be strong and resilient and still emotionally open as a womam in the army

Sarah Michelle Gellar Vs. Hattie Hayridge

Propaganda

Sarah Michelle Gellar - (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) - No text propaganda

Hattie Hayridge - (Red Dwarf, Lexx, Jonathan Creek) - I'm nominating her for her performance as Holly in comedy sci-fi "Red Dwarf" in the late 80s and early 90s. Holly is the title spaceship's computer, but Hattie's performance is extremely human. She's not there to be sexy, she just is, along with being scatty, well-meaning and just as likely to get the crew into trouble as out of it. Her swansong comes in an episode frequently voted the best ever where she saves the hallucinating crew from killing themselves. We see her versatility as she plays several different versions of her character, including an alternate version who's human and casually seduces a heroic pilot. And finally, she's just damn funny. The actress is also wonderful with fans, going out of her way to spend time with them at conventions even when she's not being paid. I've been on the same dancefloor as her so I know this from personal experience.

Penny Johnson Jerald Vs. Mag Ruffman

Propaganda

Penny Johnson Jerald - (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, The Larry Sanders Show) - No text propaganda

Mag Ruffman - (Road to Avonlea) - Along with being gorgeous (those luminous brown eyes! that cute little nose!), Mag Ruffman played one of the best rolls on the long-running Road to Avonlea series. Her character Olivia King went from a wispy and submissive "old maid" to an independent and assertive businesswoman. Not only did Mag Ruffman portray that arc believably, she brings some of the show's best moments, dramatic scenes, romantic scenes, and (so often) hilarious scenes. Mag Ruffman is an excellent comedian and brings so much fun and silliness to a character who otherwise might have faded into the background. And while I can't include more recent propaganda, she's still gorgeous.

Anna May Wong Vs. Peggy Ashcroft

Propaganda

Anna May Wong - (The Gallery of Madame Liu-Tsong) - The groundbreaking Chinese-American star became the first Asian-American to star in a TV show with this series on the DuMont Network. Like most DuMont shows, no episodes survive, but we know from her other roles that Anna May Wong was indeed very hot!

Peggy Ashcroft - (The Jewel in the Crown, She's Been Away, The Wars of the Roses) - Peggy Ashcroft's brilliance needs no introduction. One the finest stage actresses to ever grace the British stage, Dame Peggy Ashcroft made several notable TV appearances, particularly in the mid and later eras of her career. In the TV adaptation of The Cherry Orchard (1962) she played Madame Ranevskaya, and while her performance was brilliant she cut an elegant, tragic, beautiful and somewhat foolishly carefree figure who instantly caught your eye. In the TV series adaptation of The Wars of the Roses (1965), she played Margaret of Anjou, going from naive youth to fierce warrior queen and bitter old age in a matter of episodes. It was a masterclass in Shakespeare on TV by one of the best Shakespearean actresses ever, a magnetic performance and she herself looked absolutely stunning. In the TV film "Caught on a Train" she played an elderly Austrian aristocrat, self centered, kind-in-a-weird-way, imperious and elegant. In the TV film "Cream in My Coffee" she was a sad married woman hoping that a holiday would build bridges in her marriage that broke down before it even began. The TV series The Jewel in the Crown was one of her best TV appearances ever where she played a slightly dotty retired missionary and her ultimate tragic end. Her swan song on TV was her final TV appearance in the the TV film She's Been Away where she played an old woman released from a mental asylum where she was locked in since her youth. Peggy Ashcroft looked stunning on TV and translated her wealth of stage experience into her television performances, winning several BAFTA awards for Best Actress, being nominated for several more BAFTA's for Best Actress and was nominated for two Emmy's (one outstanding lead actress and another outstanding supporting actress) and a Golden Globe (also for outstanding lead actress) as well.

Sarah Jessica Parker Vs. Judy Parfitt

Propaganda

Sarah Jessica Parker - (Sex and the City) - The media CAN NEVER make me believe Sarah Jessica Parker is unattractive. Shout out to my big nosed girlies. You all are so sexy.

Judy Parfitt - (The Jewel in The Crown, Pride and Prejudice) - A familiar face on British television, stunning looks and still going strong. Her performance in The Jewel in the Crown is so brilliant that you'll hate her so much in that role and still be attracted to her.

For bonus points share one thing you wish would have happened in that extra season

Edit: So many comments about Prodigy not being on here! Well, I am a Prodigy fan too. But I left it off because last I heard Netflix picked it up. Now I don’t have faith it will happen, but nonetheless there is at least one more season planned and maybe more.

On the other hand, even though the last seasons of discovery & lower decks haven’t finished airing, they both have planned end dates.
