Description
Title supplied by cataloger.
Photograph caption dated February 11, 1985 reads, "And a 5-6-7-8: The 'Love Boat' will sail away next season with a new gaggle of regulars on board - the Love Boat Mermaids. Not to be confused with the real things with fins instead of legs, these women will be seen in nightclub scenes dancing the night away. It's all an attempt to keep the show 'fresh,' according to a spokeswoman, as it cruises into its ninth season. The producers are conducting a search for the Mermaids, and where else to look but Los Angeles? The dancers above went through their paces Friday, hoping to make it big. So did Debbie Simpson, 23, of San Diego, left, and Jackie Joussos, 23, of Merced."; See image #00161900 for additional photo in this series.
