Stefanie Powers | The Complete "Pioneers of Telelvision" Interview

[@johncopeland3826]

You can tell the way she speaks that Stephanie Powers is such an educated ,intelligent , sophisticated woman ! Talk about being photo and telegenic ....a cameraperson's delight !

[@catestout3888]

What a great great actress. Pure class act. Always was. Look at her, she looks amazing. She looks like she takes care of herself. Hart to Hart is running free on Roku - we have DELIGHTED in watching the entire series from the beginning - remembering how great L.A. used to look and be. We loved this type of sitcom and boy we have NOTHING like it today. She did great work - positive - fun work for us. And we are so grateful for her talent. Thank you Stefani we love you!

[@HC-cb4yp]

Always loved her. You can see how smart and sweet she is.

[@tuneaddicted]

She hasn't aged a bit! What a fantastic smile, it lights up the room!

[@Quaker-tc8ue]

While this was posted ‘1 year ago,’ this is not a recent ‘interview.’ Her hair is now roughly chin-length, she has bangs, and to my disappointment (but respecting her choice) she’s still dyeing her hair. And her face is showing her age of almost 81, but she’s still beautiful!

[@yvankrzeslo6366]

She's such a beloved actress.

[@bkkershner]

What man in America didn't love Stephanie Powers, and to hear her this way, so eloquent and bright, wow, all I can say.

[@brockbaby]

i was too young for Hart to Hart but have since caught up on some of it's episodes. What a charming, romantic, action packed, tongue in cheek, positive and happy show it was! We could use content like that NOW

[@masters1313]

Thank You Stefanie for sharing you talents with us all !

[@Jayla60]

Stefanie Powers was always one of my favorite actresses. I loved her TV movies and guest appearances. She was wonderful on Hart to Hart. An equal partner in the TV marriage. Hope to see more of her on-screen soon. All the best to Stefanie in 2022!

A very intelligent person and I enjoyed what she had to say about television then and now!

[@soapwonder2284]

Oh what a treat first Joan Collins and Linda Evans from Dynasty 🥰 and now Stefanie Powers from my beloved Hart To Hart! I read their books! 👌🏻I grew up in the 80s, looooved these shows, so I appreciate it very much! Thank you! 👍🏻 Very interesting! She still looks fantastic! I’m a huge fan of her work and what she has done for endangered animals! 🙏🏻❤️

[@miltsar]

a very smart and eloquent woman

[@charlenecole1325]

I LOVE this woman. I used to watch reruns of Hart to Hart in the early 90s and she was so beautiful and glamourous. I also watched the TV series/movie Deceptions as a kid and since then have to see anything she's been in

[@justjennie7394]

Such a lovely woman in all ways. I discovered Girl From UNCLE during the pandemic and I absolutely LOVE it. It was a completely misunderstood show and deserves a lot more credit than it ever got in its original run.

I just love her! She’s brilliant and so honest. I love that she gets the Hart to Hart fandom.

Stefanie Powers was about the sexiest women I ever saw on tv. To this day, she is the one.

I have always liked Stephanie Powers, she has always been a Class act! 💋

[@lorimiller4301]

I'll be watching this more than once. Thank you so much. Stefanie is my favorite person to listen to. Her intelligence is as evident as her beauty. I wish I could see Love Letters. She's had such a fabulous life. Thank you for posting this. Definitely a Christmas present 🎁

[@gabby7313]

I have admired Stephanie Powers since I was a child. Her beauty is one thing, but more endearing than that is the way she carries herself as a woman. I love that she is eloquent, knowledgeable, witty and very strong minded at the same time. She is an inspiration.

[@wiwi2412-h3b]

@gabby7313 Very true n well said🤣👏🥰 Hope she will come to Singapore🙏

[@ChrisHansonCanada]

She deserved a longer interview. I wanted to hear Stefanie comment on the various guest roles she did in TV series. Not many of them were mentioned.

[@bmbutler2]

LOVED Hart to Hart. How they met in London is still my favorite episode. I was also privileged to see them in Love Letters in KY.

[@myronmadey3040]

Love Stephanie Powers! Hart to Hart was one of my favorite shows. Never missed an episode. She's such a great talent as well as being gorgeous and very classy. I was so fortunate to see Love Letters. RJ and Stephanie were incredible in that play!!

[@lorimiller4301]

I believe the reason Hart to Hart was so successful was the fact that they were in love. If you watch the Movies you can see the difference. I know they had an affair. They were in live in Hart to Hart and that's what made the show so great.

[@SFGal2011]

Agree, Stefanie Powers is a great and versatile talent. She was well chosen for "Hart to Hart". I too had the good fortune of seeing her and Robert Wagner in "Love Letters" in Seattle, while touring in the U.S. What a rare treat! She also toured in "The King & I", and saw her perform at the Pantages Theatre in LA. She is a fine singer, and has toured in a cabaret-style show in LA, SF, and NYC about ten years ago. I saw her performance in S.F., and met her afterward. Very approachable, appreciative and lovely person. This is an excellent interview. Look forward to reading the new book that she's working on. Recommend her memoir that came out in 2010. Excellent!

[@robertandhollyscorpiofan2697]

@@lorimiller4301 you have said you greatly admire stef, yet you trash her every chance you get. They did not have an affair, they have both said so, or can’t you accept that a man 24 years older than she was - William Holden - was her SOULMATE. You are a sad and pathetic person. I hope you get psychiatric help, you need it.

[@Quaker-tc8ue]

You claim to greatly admire Stef, but you trash her every chance you get. They did NOT have an affair. If you admired her as much as you claim to, you’d accept that what was seen on ‘Hart to Hart’ was two great FRIENDS.@@lorimiller4301

[@pattih7]

Stephanie, you remain beautiful! I’ve recently been watching episodes of “Hart to Hart”, and I was there for the beginning of your show on television, as well! It’s been so uplifting to experience you and Robert , and Mr. Stander and Freeway, again! I’m now on the verge of turning 73, and really appreciate the experience more. It brings a lift in spirit to me, and I’m so happy to see this interview! Thank you and may God richly Bless you even more! 🙏💜🙏💜🙏💜🦋🌸🦋🌸🦋🌸

It's a pleasant surprise to see and hear the wonderful Stefanie Powers again. Once I got a picture of her and I was delighted with her beauty. She still looks beautiful ! Wishing you a Happy New Year. Love from Izabella

[@Jaac822]

Eloquent, stunning. Love hearing her talk. ❤️

[@northyorkshirechris5735]

Interesting interview with a fantastic and eloquent actress. And how marvellous she still looks! Perhaps I may be looking at the past with rose-tinted glasses, but TV shows used to have both diversity and quality back in the 60s and 70s with great acting by those who really knew their craft. Whether it was the Twilight Zone, Streets of San Francisco, Hart to Hart, Bonanza etc, these were quality series. We get them now, but I think they’re far fewer in number. I hate ‘reality shows’ (junk food TV) with a passion. With the proliferation of digital channels, I feel it’s now quantity over quality and probably explains why many of these channels return to the back catalogue of shows filmed in the 60s and 70s.

[@BellaFirenze]

Diversity? Diversity of what?

[@robertandhollyscorpiofan2697]

@@BellaFirenze ^ yes. Because when Hart to Hart was getting ready to film, RJ really wanted to cast Sugar Ray in the role of Max, but he faced more resistance over that choice than he did when he wanted to cast Stef as Jennifer. But then, he also faced resistance when he decided he wanted Lionel Stander, who had been “blacklisted” during the McCarthy era.

[@aboutasong1210]

She once guest starred opposite Robert Wagner on his series It Takes a Thief. The chemistry between them was very visible. I'm sure that's why he wanted her for Hart to Hart. If you can find that episode on KZbin watch it. You'll see what I mean.

[@Quaker-tc8ue]

Folks are *convinced* that they were a couple during “hart to hart.” It’s sad that those folks refuse to accept that RJ and Stef have both said, “it was luck that our then 20 years of friendship ‘translated’ into believable on-screen romantic chemistry.”

[@francohilton532]

She did a skype(?), facetime(?) interview with someone, and they asked her about cable TV. She said, “it’s nothing like what we imagined, it’s mostly garbage now (except, she used a nicer word than that).”

Immer noch Charmant und dann dieses zauberhafte Lächeln. Sie ist wahrlich eine traumhafte Frau. ☀️

[@gregorymowery8879]

Always had a soft spot for Stefanie Powers. I first encountered her in MCCLINTOCK, a popular and entertaining western starring John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara. Powers played their daughter. She was very pretty, and had that certain something that all stars need to sustain a long career. She seemed to be an ingenue for a very long time and she always worked. I admire her work in the protection of animals worldwide, and on the cusp of 80, she still is a vibrant and attractive woman. She was a hard worker who deserved her success and stardom during the five year run of her TV series with Robert Wagner, HART TO HART.

[@johnscanlan9335]

Stephanie Powers was one of the great American actresses of the 1960s and '70s. I absolutely had a big crush on her beginning when I saw her in the TV broadcast of the 1960 movie "Palm Springs Weekend" in which she starred with Troy Donahue!

[@frankwc0o]

Hart to Hart was one of my favorite detective shows while I was growing up. I was at the beginning of my teen years when it initially came on. The show made me want to grow up to become a millionaire, and marry a woman like Stephanie Powers. I am still hoping that it comes true someday. 😊

William Holden found a rare, true gem in Powers first.

[@yp3424]

Indeed. W. Holden had a very brief role in G. P. Cosmatos' war movie, quasi parody, "Escape to Athena" (1978). St. Powers played an american artist,(Dottie Lamar) in an "élite" P.O.W. camp in Rhodes,Greece, along with Ell. Gould, Rog. Moore & D. Niven. She acted, danced, sang and performed a modest strip-tease scene. Though the movie was a blatant commercial "flop".
