Ahhhhh, yes: "Buffalo Bill" . .ChiO wrote:Geena Davis -- Buffalo Bill
A show not only gutsy enough to turn loose a bitterly hilarious Dabney Coleman as nobody's second banana, but also cagey enough to unleash the talents of quirky little John Fiedler in a comedic role!
[I swear, over half of the "brainy" humor that doubled us over years later on "Frasier" got its legs here!]
'Course giving a break to a gal who stands 5'10" & is an Olympic-calibre archer in her spare time doesn't hurt either . . .

Re: Loveliest Leading Lady in A TV Series
I do know that she did (Geena Davis) did Commander in Chief back in 2005-06 season, I know my television history, I did not know that she had a early tv role in Buffalo Bill with Dabney Coleman. According to Klondike, this show must been pretty funny to watch. I did not know that Geena did TV Comedy. I learned something new today. Thanks for sharing this info Klondike and ChiO for listing it in the previous posts on this thread. Interesting, Very Interesting.klondike wrote:Ahhhhh, yes: "Buffalo Bill" . .ChiO wrote:Geena Davis -- Buffalo Bill
