The 1970s was an extremely notable time in America. Times were changing. Some felt that it was for the better and some for the worse; but everybody agreed that things were changing. One huge change that came about was in television programming.

America was starting to let its hair down just a bit. It didn’t happen overnight but the '70s marked a dramatic change in television programing. Along with the changing attitudes in America, came bolder and more provocative television shows.

Television producers had made the decision to get with the times. Before long, beautiful, and purposefully chosen, sexy women began appearing on prime-time television. Some were more provocative than others; but sexy nonetheless.

In early television shows, American women were portrayed as proper wives and mothers. Most women on television had traditional roles and would never think to speak a cross word or show any skin. Enter the '70s; and all bets were off!

Below are, by no means all, but some of the sexiest American actresses that played a huge part in ushering in a new spin on television programming.
