One thing I noticed about the SHEENA series is it was good clean and wholesome. There were no gratuitous cleavage or heinie shots absolutely no cheecake factor.
BUT there are plenty of sites on the web you can visit that have Gena Lee being naughty. With the wholesome image she portrayed on the show it created a sort of conflict of interests with the shows producers and her goals toward fame and fortune. Face it, we all want money and fame.
A Saturday morning kiddie show was not enough for this Jungle girl.
