The title of this episode pretty much sums it up. In part 1 of a two-part series, we’ll say hello to some real-life celebrities like Marie Provost, Valerie Singleton, Lee Remick, Cath Carroll, and Tipper Gore; we’ll explore make-believe crushes on Barbara, Gail, Regina, Josephine, Elaine, and Veronica; and we’ll ponder just what in the world Julie, Janet, Carol, Candy, Ginger, Martha, Marnie, Kim, Patty, and Erica are up to. This is a really fun one! Be sure to check out part 2!
