Help identify a person with almost zero information?

This is a very random one, for which I apologize in advance.

I heard someone speaking a few days ago. I couldn’t see the person. For some reason, the voice reminded of another person. The problem is that I can’t figure out who the other person is. I have an image in my head, but I can’t figure out where it comes from. I think it’s from something on TV.

The image: A woman, with reddish or blondish hair, shoulder length, possibly curly. She’s pale, pretty much a redhead complexion. She has either a slight overbite or just fairly prominent front teeth. She talks directly to the camera and shakes her head in wonder or confusion. I think it’s a commercial and I think she’s talking about how stupid someone is. She comes off as really… prim I guess.

I know this is almost nothing to go on, but this is making me a bit crazy. Help?

The Glade candle woman?

I think, but am not certain, that this person doesn’t interact with anyone on screen. She’s talking directly to the camera with nothing behind her. Maybe.

Younger than the Glade woman.

ETA: I meant to thank you for guessing! I know I’m not giving much to go on. All guesses welcome!

The Arby’s girl would be way too obvious, right?

ETA: Doh! Wendy’s

5

Sarah McLachlan on her ASPCA commercials?

6

You made me go look for an Arby’s girl!

But no, this person is less attractive.

Not Sarah McLachlin, either. This person is more ferrety. I can’t think of a more flattering word for it.

7

Your physical description makes me think of Juilanne Moore. Well, except for the curls.

8

Definitely a less conventionally attractive person than Julianne Moore.

I think the hair must be shorter, too.

Mariska Hargitay?

10

Did she have an accent, and could you have been watching PBS?

No. I think the person I’m trying to figure out isn’t someone anyone would identify by name. I’m beginning to think it’s a random person in a commercial. Which makes me think this is an impossible quest.

I don’t remember an accent. I watch some PBS, but not that show, darn it! :slight_smile:

12

Do you watch Big Bang Theory? :dubious:

13

Nope. I’m really starting to think she’s just in some commercial. I don’t think it’s one where you see her in lots of commercials, either. It will turn out that it’s a local commercial playing on a station only I watch. :smiley:

14

Is it Chelsea Peretti in something like Brooklyn Nine Nine? She’s got a distinctive voice and always talking about everyone like they’re stupid.

15

No. Different type. I think this thread was hopeless from the start.

Thanks to all for giving it a try, but I think I’ll just have to stumble across her again, then curse her name (when I know it). :smiley:

16

Or, we could just continue to list every single redhead we’ve ever seen on TV for a dozen pages…

17

Lucille Ball

18

This is a long shot, but it sounds like the wife on Ray Donavon. But you’d probably know it if you had that show on in the background.

ETA, but it’s very possible she was in a commercial and she does have a bit of a mean streak on the show.

19

Is it Al Traina?

Reddish or blondish hair, shoulder length, kind of ferrety looking, talking directly into the camera…

Possibly Amy Ryan? She played Holly on “The Office”, which had many characters doing talking-head shots to the camera.
