In Praise of the Fresh-Scrubbed 70s Beauty of Season Hubley
Born Susan Hubley in New York City in 1951, she was steadily active, in film and on television, from her first 1972 appearance in the eponymous lead role in the television film Bobby Jo and the Good Time Band, through to her final 1999 appearance in a guest-starring role on the episode "Wreck of the Zephyr" of the television series Flipper.
Hubley appeared in mix of supporting and lead roles through the 1970s. In 1973, she played the title character in Lolly-Madonna XXX, also known as The Lolly Madonna War, around whom the story revolved. She co-starred in the 1979 film Hardcore, and may be best known for her appearance as Priscilla Presley in the 1979 made-for-television film Elvis. She appeared briefly in Escape from New York (1981). Her other major film role is in the 1982 cult film Vice Squad, in which she played a prostitute named Princess.
In television, she made an appearance on The Partridge Family in 1972 playing the part of a princess. In 1977, she appeared as a nun whose sister was murdered in an episode of Kojak. She had a continuing role in the evening TV drama Family, guest-starring in several episodes in 1976 and 1977 as Salina Magee, the love interest of teenage dropout Willie Lawrence. She also co-starred in an episode of Starsky & Hutch, "Starsky’s Lady", in which she was Starsky's fiancee. From 1991 to 1994, she portrayed Angelique Marick on the daytime drama All My Children. She appeared in Stepfather III and Child in the Night, both in 1990.

She had a single scene in Escape from New York with Kurt Russell.
And she got a tremendous exit.

She has a passing resemblance to the charming Helen Slater.

This is embarrassing. She sunk her career with choices like this.

She completely upended her good girl image by playing a prostitute/porn actress in 1979's "Hardcore" with George C. Scott.

I guess she refused to wear Priscilla's eye make up.

Vice Squad was incredible. I remember seeing the cult film as a kid and being blown away by the frank subject matter, raw gruesomeness and daring nature. This crazy rollercoaster never held back. Even by today's standards it's still an edgy film and one that once seen can never be forgotten. She was absolutely a stunningly beautiful woman - if not more runway than pin-up. I finally saw Hardcore last year; this George C. Scott vehicle started promising but ultimately fell flat. Still, she stood out as the only bright light in it. It is a shame that Season didn't gain more momentum as she was at least as deserving as Melanie Griffith who followed a similarly "edgy" early trajectory when she landed the lead in Body Double (excellent De Palma cult film) playing a porn star. Melanie became a movie star - Season not so much. Still, her work is appreciated by a handful of us today and I'm glad to have her.

I remember her in "Family" as Willie's girlfriend. I thought she was really cute.
