If you are looking for Christina Applegate on Youtube, you will receive as a hit among other videos that carry titles like "Kelly Bundy Full Legs Compilation". In the clips, one actually only sees scenes from the series A terribly nice family, in which the actress, mostly sitting on the couch, has flipped her legs over. Of those, for the sake of explanation, quite a bit was seen in the sitcom, on the one hand because it was the late eighties and early nineties, and stylish clothing had just experienced a torturous torture due to crop tops and hot pants. And on the other hand, because Applegate's role as Kelly Bundy, the family's sexually precocious daughter, meant that she could see as much leg and chest as she could on afternoon television.
With the role of Kelly Bundy, Christina Applegate not only became big in the sense of being famous, but also big in the sense of being grown up. When the show started, she was just fifteen years old. When the series was discontinued ten years later, Christina Applegate had proved that she could not only be a very attractive, but also a very funny woman. Only that nobody remembered afterwards.
Anyone who thinks of Kelly Bundy today and rummages through his ninetieth memory does not really think of the theatrical quality of Christina Applegate. But a shrill, and, there is no other adjective, blonde, young woman who runs up and down the stairs to make up for the next date with the next greasy guy.
For a long time Applegate played mainly women who defined themselves as men
Applegate remained connected to the role of Kelly Bundy until the 2000s - which now, and that's very important, says little about them. And a lot about time, viewers and creators of "A terribly nice family". The majority of male directors and scriptwriters then manifested what they considered attractive, blond women. Later, the characters that played Applegate, albeit initially minimal, changed: As an annoying sister of Rachel, she appeared in Friends. Superficially and socially incompetent then as Stirrup Holder for Cameron Diaz in Super Sweet and Super Sexy. In 2002, she was the first presenter in a male scary cabinet of TV journalists in Anchorman.
