I best remember an episode mentioned in one of the other letters, the woman with the gloves.
As I recall, she was a playboy-type model who would show everything, just not her hands (which she was saving for marriage). The guy who was dating her quickly became obsessed with her hands of course, but she held firm. I think it was after he proposed that she finally took off one of her gloves, and by that time I was thinking, oh, god, she's showing her bare HAND!
So, the show had some brains; that one was a great riff on how our sexual fixations can be pretty arbitrary. Gave me that bit of self-awareness at an early age.
