Ayyyy! Puzzle corner
By Spirit FingersThis week we turn our attention to the crime-solving, case-breaking, crook-nabbing ladies of the small screen. Your mission is to sleuth away at the hidden identities below and name these actresses/tv characters.
Answers will be put up on Thursday morning. I await your answers with much suspense and tension.

#2=Mariska Hargitay
#8=Marg Helgenberger

#2 Mariska Hargitay
#3 Kate Jackson from Charlie’s Angels?
#4 Heather Locklear from TJ Hooker?
#5 Cagney and Lacey?
#6 Sidney Bristow from Alias?
#7 whats-her-nose Deschanel from Bones?
#8 yeah, Marg Helgenberger for sure
I’ll agree with Atomic Bombshell on #9
No idea who #10 is, but I would love to find out #1’s personal trainer…look at the arms on her!

I would say #4 is Kate Jackson from Charlie’s Angels. #2 is Mariska Hargitay. I would guess #5 are Cagney and Lacey, just because there are two of them. I suspect #3 might be Stephanie Zimbalist from Remington Steele. I hope one of these is Angie Dickinson from her Police Woman days, because not honouring her would be terrible! My guess is #6, only because the outfit seems ’70s.

I think #9 looks more like Cybill Shepherd from her ‘Moonlighting’ days, but the rest are a mystery to me! #10 looks Kate Jackson-y, but that’s all I got.

Dang it. Wish I read the comments before posting…I think that Sarah J is right about #7.
March 25th, 2008 at 10:40 pm
I am an enormous Angie Dickinson fan, but alas, I feel very strongly that none of these is the immortal Pepper.
My guesses:
#1 some workout chick from one of the billions of L&O’s.
2 mariska hargitay
3 Stephanie Zimbalist
4 Heather Locklear
5 Cagney and Lacey
6 no idea
7 might be Jill Hennessy, whom I used to slightly know when she was a busker. She’s GOOD with an acoustic guitar, and always cheerful in the Vancouver rain.
8 Jen Garner? Longshot: they stuffed that shirt if it’s her
9 Hell-OOOOOO? Does nobody else think this was the lovely Mrs. Hart from the immortal Hart to Hart?
10 Kate Jackson. I’m pretty sure I made my mother sew me a lookalike shirt. I idolized her.
Incidentally, working for The Manolo is rather like being in Charlie’s Angels.
