When I watched Fonzie jump the shark on this blog, I noticed a young lady in the background who I had almost forgotten: Laurette Spang. She was a young contract actress who got a part as a title character in the original “Battlestar Galactica” as Cassiopea, the love interest for roguish Viper pilot “Starbuck.” Her character didn’t make the cut when they created a new version of the show.

As a high school freshman, I thought Laurette was just about the hottest thing on television. Thirty years later — good Lord — she strikes me as more of a girl-next-door-ish type than anything else.
