Even though red was Gwen's "natural" color, I always felt it was the right choice for the devil's minion to be red headed, just as I loved the fact that Applegate sported red socks.

And the last Lola I saw (can't remember her name, but she did the show with Tony Randall) was a blonde.

This show uses the great American sport of Baseball to glamorize santanism. Avoid it.

Revive the shows of George M. Cohan!!!

When we did Damn Yankees in high school, our Lola was a brunette. And our Applegate wore all red, all the time. We had a great seamstress doing our costumes, and she found him all these really cool suits and jackets and ties in various shades of red.

That's right AmericanRight. I love baseball, so I thought I would check out Damn Yankees. Now I am a practicing satanist! Who knew?

Arghh! Grammar pet peeve #1: your vs you're. "Your" is a possessive pronoun. "You're" is the contraction of "you are." <<

LOL! Very funny stuff "AmericanRight" or are you really my long lost "WickedPhantom"?

What about "Bell, Book and Candle" or "Lestat"?

I was Lola. I am blonde.

I always thought it would be cool for Lola's hair to change constantly. Brunette when she puts on her fake Spanish accent for "Whatever Lola Wants", then blonde, then redhead - a new wig for every scene!

Santanism?? I'm not familiar with that.

No one is alone.

I don't think it really matters. As long as the audience gets the part about where she comes from, be it through costuming or whatever, it'll work with any hair color.
