Nina Talbot Was Beautiful And Hillarious

Oh a few weirdos think otherwise but they are decidedly fuckin' weirdos.

Are you a fuckin' weirdo? Of course not. Look how she even makes the awful "Jim Backus Show" worth watching.

NiTa Talbot IS--still alive, aged 91. She was the new Eve Arden in the 1950s.

Nita was hot in her day. IMDB shows she guested seven times on Hogan's Heroes, so I think it's safe to assume she was doing Bob Crane regularly.

I loved her on the Partridge Family as the music hating neighbor

She had a Bacall-ish look.

She was hilarious, Eve was only chuckle-worthy. She was beautiful, Eve was only marginally passable.

She even out prettied Elizabeth Montgomery on "Bewitched"

Since she's long retired, I can say she was the ultimate scene stealer, wearing a flashy gold lamé dress on General Hospital at Luke and Laura's wedding. The following New Year's Eve, she was dressed as Bette Davis as Queen Elizabeth, and Lesley Webber showed up in the same poofy hair and gold dress that her character, Delfina, had worn. GH used her for a good year and a half on a recurring basis, and she came back a decade later for a few more weddings.

Loved her as Debbie Reynolds' coworker pal in Bundle of Joy. Also good as an escape con woman on an episode of The Thin Man TV series who breaks into Nick and Nora's house while they are away to hide out. Outside of a few Broadway people, I haven't seen any character actors like her in years.

For some reason, her dress looks silver in that picture, but I seem to remember it being gold. As the wedding has been rerun several times, my memories of it are pretty solid. She was hysterical barking orders at everybody including the bride and groom.

Yes indeed. She was/is a good ole' broad.

She played the character of mob moll Rose Peabody on "Search For Tomorrow" in the mid 1950's. Her character was also played by Lee Grant (who was blacklisted after receiving an Oscar nomination and had to find work anywhere she could get it) and Constance Ford.
