9 Sitcom Moms We'll Always Have Crushes On

Moviefone
July 28, 2015 - 1 min read

​it it. You've had the hots for a TV mom. Whether she was on an '80s sitcom that defined your formative years or she appears on new episodes to this day, she's out there. Here are 9 sitcom mothers who not only make us laugh, they make us swoon. 

Lindsay Bluth-Funke, 'Arrested Development' (Portia de Rossi)

Lindsay may not be mother of the year, but she's still drop dead gorgeous. So what if she's vain, blunt, and her parenting skills leave a lot to be desired? Whatever. She's a catch. Just make sure you like hot ham water!

Elyse Keaton, 'Family Ties' (Meredith Baxter)

A role model, an ex-hippie, and a stone cold fox. Elyse Keaton was not only an awesome mother and a kick-ass architect, she had baby blues that would make any hot-blooded '80s TV viewer melt. 

Samantha Stephens, 'Bewitched' (Elizabeth Montgomery)

Samantha is the cutest housewife witch ever. That adorable nose twitch is enough to hook you for life. 

Vivian Banks, 'The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air' (Janet Hubert)

Aunt Viv (the first one) was the most regal creature to ever grace '90s television. Look at that commanding stance, the effortlessly draped scarf, and those stunning gold earrings. Total babe with a fierce fashion sense. Um, have you seen the woman dance? 

Peggy Bundy, 'Married... with Children' (Katey Sagal)

Quit your complainin,' Al. Your wife is smokin.' That abundant fiery hair! That sass! Nobody looks as good in animal prints. (OK, maybe Fran Fine...) Katey Sagal forever. 

Midge Pinciotti, 'That '70s Show' (Tanya Roberts)

Donna's mom has got it going on. "Charlie's Angels" alum Tanya Roberts has been making waves for decades, and she brought her A-game to "That 70's Show" as Midge Pinciotti. Can you dig?

Gloria Delgado-Pritchett, 'Modern Family' (Sofia Vergara)

Do we really need to explain why Sofia Vergara is attractive? Come on, fools. She's like next level near-alien good looking. Don't you dare say that accent is annoying. You can handle it. 

Wanda McCullough, 'The Bernie Mac Show' (Kellita Smith)

Wanda "Baby" McCullough is a knockout and an inspiration. Although she didn't have children of her own, she was a surrogate mom to Bernie's nieces and nephews, and we had to include her. Nobody puts baby in the corner, right? 

Aunt Becky, 'Full House' (Lori Loughlin)

Have mercy, indeed. All hail Aunt Becky. She could wear workout gear, oversized flared sleeves, an Lori Loughlin is still just as breathtaking now. Sign us up for "Fuller House."
