Oh my god Shirley Holmes I had totally forgotten about that! We never had cable when I was a kid, so I watched it whenever I was at my grandmother's, it was the best show!
Ahh, love all these so much! I nearly jumped up and down when you got to all the Star Trek ones - Deanna Troi was my first favourite TV character and Kes is so underrated... I was just getting to the end and thinking 'shame there's no Harriet the Spy...' and there she was! Yay!
*sigh* Oh, this made me feel so nostalgic for all these shows/books, and I loved how you were describing that timid/curious tension. I remember that feeling so well: the feeling like I wanted to conquer the world, but maybe I should also hide under the bed for a while. Heck, I still feel like that sometimes, and I'm a grown woman. As a kid, it was always such a relief to see that feeling expressed by the characters I loved. :D
