4. Barbara Feldon in that show ...

I had a crush when I was like 8. This was in the syndication era, not original run.

She was soon replaced though by Shahna, the Drill Thrall from Gamesters of Triskelion.

Then Farrah.

Diana Rigg as Miss Emma Peel in Avengers was pretty money as well ...

8. I loved that show in its original run and for years after in reruns. I'd still watch it

if it was on.
