Let’s set the scene, shall we? It’s Saturday afternoon in Ann Arbs, back in the heady days of January 2001. In the [INSERT NUMBER HERE] block of Sig Vills, your Uncle Grambo and Peabs decide to take a momentary break from a marathon session of “Mario Party 3″ to make our way over to the Quality 16 Theaters. What could possibly rouse us from the delights of Bumper Bizzies and Eatsa Pizza? A chance to catch Marla Sokoloff on the big screen in “Sugar & Spice”, opening weekend stizz. Obvs!

Back then, Sokoloff was probably the most underrated bomb snatch on television. The type of chesty lass who, quite literally, put the “boob” to the Boob Tube. She may have only had a minor role on “The Practice”, but she played a major role in the fantasies of thousands (if not millions) of horny dudes at the time. But over the course of the next few years, she suffered a slow fade into obscurity — much like the show that introduced her to the mainstream in the first place. After being dumped by James Franco, this blogga was fairly certain that I’d seen the last of Miss Marla.

But over the last few weeks, seemingly out of nowhere, pictures of her started popping up on the Internerd. What gives? Turns out that Sokoloff is starring in a new show on ABC that awkwardly marries (literally) the preparation that goes into planning nuptials with the flashback structure of “Lost.” I know, it sounds fucking durst. But at the same time, it also means that Sokoloff will be bringin’ her redonkulous rack back to the small screen. Can’t wait to tell Peabs. Natch.
