Best Pamela Hensley scene

Just saw this episode today in the superb DVD set. She plays Jennifer, a model who goes missing and has a scene with James Garner when he tracks her down. First she's innocent and scared, then quite the reverse where she shows her skill with a gun on both ends of a short car chase. Quite a range that shows her dramatic training. Short screen time, though.
She had come a long way in just a year from her lightweight 1974 KOJAK appearance as the detective's girlfriend in "Death is Not a Passing Grade" with James Woods.
Rollerball came out around the same time and shows a similar edgeplus you got a lot more of Pamela in the film. But as far as single scenes go, Jennifer's transformation from sweet runaway to unbalanced murderess is a standout. -

Jennifer's transformation from sweet runaway to unbalanced murderess is a standout.
Wow, sounds great. I'll have to look that one up. That's the kind of stuff that really impresses me: her extreme bipolar personality changes. For example, in the
Rollerball
scene she's in a laughing frenzy at first, but then she terrifies herself and suddenly becomes very confused and insecure. She had a few similar moments as Princess Ardala on
Buck Rogers
where her ruthless facade gives way to innocence for a fleeting moment.
Oh, but how could I forget the best scene ever: when she gets into a cat fight with Julie Newmar. Rrrowr. -

She looked great in those tiny outfits in Buck Rogers. I remember the pilot where she was basically wearing a bikini. There were also 2 episodes where she wore a bikini in Matt Houston. She still had a smokin' hot body. I think she performed best in a bikini or skimpy clothing.

Well, the hottest scene she's ever done is in this 1980 miniseries CONDOMINIUM, an otherwise lame effort about a hurricane ravaging a Florida condo. Starring a bunch of has-beens and never-will-bes, the climactic hurricane is a joke. But Hensley has this sex scene with this guy in his camper WHILE the hurricane is coming! That's hot! Forget Princess Ardala!

I soooo agree, that's where I bought most of Pamela's stuff.
Not only Matt Houston but although Vegas, Switch, Banaceck, Battle of the network stars and Condominium. It was great to find it at a reasonable price but that's sad that the video quality isn't all that great. But well, as you said, it's a lame production! lol
L8rs!

If I had to pick my favorite Pamela Hensley scene, I'd have to go with the one from Part 2 of Flight of the Warwitch (first season of Buck Rogers). It's the scene with Pamela and Julie Newmar where the two are getting really catty with each other. Pamela seemed to really be having fun with the part there, and I thought she was really cute, on so many levels, in this scene.
