Why Wasn't Merri Lee Wether More Popular

She was good in Barnaby Jones and the Munsters Today and of course the Batman movie

by Anonymousreply 59November 6, 2018 2:54 PM

I can't answer your question, really. I thought she was pretty popular in the day. She turned up on a lot of tv shows. You should know that her name is actually Lee Merriweather.

by Anonymousreply 1April 11, 2017 12:41 PM

Considering she was a beauty queen she did quite well for herself.

Lets get the name right once and for all - Lee Meriwether.

She was the worst Catwoman...too stiff and starchy for the part.

Because it was cheap I bought the entire Barnaby Jones collection on dvd and oh my Lee was a lousy actress. The number of times she was kidnapped/stalked/assaulted have to equal or exceed Gail Fisher on Mannix.

I did miss Julie Newmar as Catwoman in the movie - and Eartha Kitt scared me as Catwoman.

She was good on All My Childrn. The peak of her career.

R1 is right, she was quite popular at the time. Not a "movie star", but everyone knew who she was and she was generally well-liked.

I liked her more than Mary Ann Mobley. I couldn't stand her or her self-righteous drunk husband Gary Collins.

She certainly has the enhanced titties.

Poor Merri Lee Wether. While she never had the career of her rival Lee Meriwether, she still earned the loyal support of assorted dumbbells, and that must be a comfort.

In an attempt to achieve Merriwether's gorgeousness, Barbara Bain went brunette.

Barbara Bain always looked fragile and sickly.

Eating disorder?

She wore a pointy bra as Miss Kitka in the Batman movie. Bruce Wayne was entranced, but I hate pointy tits.

Lee Meriwether was a pretender to the throne on Batman.

Julie Newmar was the one and only Catwoman!

by Anonymousreply 30April 13, 2017 8:40 PM

The worst Catwoman. She was fine as a "tv host". Newmar was the best Catwoman, while Eartha Kitt chewed scenery a bit too much.

She was in the Munsters reboot in the '80s or '90s I forget when exactly. While the original show looked like it cost about ten cents to make, the reboot looked like it cost about three.

She had a very high Q rating, mostly for likability. She was on a lot of game shows and always came off well, not actress-ey,

People always confused Lee Meriwether with Mariette Hartley. Happened all the time.

To answer the Ethel merman question- Barbara Colby was Ethel’s daughter in law. She was mostly a stage actress who was staring to establish herself in Hollywood in television when she was randomly murdered with a friend after they had taught an acting class in 1975.

I think she was in the process of getting a divorce from Ethel’s son, but they were on friendly terms . Her murder has never been solved.

I was obsessed with Time Tunnel when I was 12 years old. Lee played a computer tech who wore a white lab coat and fiddled with dials and looked concerned. All those billions of dollars the government spent to build that secret facility out in the New Mexico desert, and they could only hire two computer techs.

by Anonymousreply 58November 6, 2018 2:42 PM

Met her in the late nineties. Sour faced cunt off-camera. Not bitchy or demanding, just unpleasant to work with. On a side note: Eartha Kitt was fired as Catwoman because she made anti-Vietnam war remarks at a Lady Bird Johnson luncheon. She was invited so Democrats could show how tolerant they were of integration but she was expected to keep her mouth shut. She was blacklisted from film and TV for over a decade. Met Julie Newmar when she was a guest artist at Florida State University in the seventies. Very low IQ and a total space cadet.
