Question:
Did Donna have much a role in the first two seasons of the show? Besides a
> small flirtation with David, I don't recall her doing much.
Answer:
For seven years [!], Donna (played by Aaron Spelling's daughter Tori
[!!]) had a decidedly unique role: the only female virgin over age 16
living in Los Angeles!!!
And when she did finally surrender to long-time BF, David Silver, it was
the most politically correct deflowering in the history of American
television: elegant HGTV-worthy candles burning all over the place, and
enough fresh, new, gleaming-wrapped condoms scattered around the bed to
keep The Peach Pit in safe sex for at least a few weeks.
It's true, however, that Donna was somewhat more peripheral during the
first two seasons.
BTW, the girl who played Marianne Moore, Brandon's date in the series
pilot, turned up recently on "The Sopranos" as one of Tony's goomahs
