Growing up, I always seemed to have a thing for the "ethnic" girl. Mayim Bialik was my first (embarrassingly intense) celebrity crush; I taped every episode of "Blossom." And my longtime high-school crush had the same blonde/prominent-nose look.

I don't remember the C + C Music Factory episode, but I do remember a very special "let's talk about sex" episode guest-starring Salt-n-Pepa. In fact, everything I know about sex, I learned from that episode of "Blossom."

I second that, See Thomas Howl. Now I know why, according to Jenna Von Oy's website, her UPN show "The Parkers" "was the number-one television show in African-American households." Little in the middle, but she got much back.
