In an interview for TVGuide during the Get Smart days, Barbara said her "bedroom eyes" look was because she was nearsighted and that was how she focused on things. It paid off.I don't know how to do the link thing, but back in the '60s Barbara Feldon (Agent 99 from "Get Smart") did a commercial for Top Brass, writhing around on a tiger skin, that was so sexy I'm amazed that it got past the network censors of those days.

Cream of Wheat had a series of commercials in the sixties that haunt me to this day -- they'd show kids having a bowl of the stuff for breakfast and then when they got up to go to school, a ghostly bowl would rise up from the table and follow them thru their day, always hanging in the air just above them giving off phosphorescent steam.
A good example of the anti-male bias in movies and TV today. Tarzan should boot her off the branch and go find another female.
People in the 50s weren't so thin skinned!Couples arguing over directions have been a point of comedy since the '50s. How is this bickering any different than, say, "The Honeymooners"? It's certainly not indicative of any sort of social change.
