Is it really under a rock if I wasn't even born until the 90's?
Name that girl
- Thread starter C Body Bob
- Start date
#1,300 Shelley Long
We beat this "girl" up pretty good so we'll wrap up early.
After a stint with Second City in Chicago, she got her big break on Cheers TV show as Diane Chambers in 1982.
Cheers was a very successful show, and she won/nominated for a bunch of awards for her work, ran for 11 years and 275 episodes tho Shelley left after first five years to go do movies.
Her role in that show was replaced by a new character played by Kirstie Alley. Both women played the role differently but well to me, but were inevitably compared to each other in the role.
Shelley's "Diane" character seemed IMHO to be the bigger "fish out of water" foil to the womanizing Sam Malone (Ted Danson) character vs. Kirstie's "Rebecca" character.
Shelley did not have mega hits as a big screen star: she did the Money Pit with Tom Hanks, Troop Beverly Hills, and even would wind up playing Carol Brady in two big screen reboots of the late 60's Brady Bunch TV show.
Even had recurring role on Modern Family (our girl Vergara's show). Still working but seems to be mostly "retired" now.

I'm still here...somewhere.
Anyone feeling covered up by a large piece of granite ... naming this girl is about he best person I can think of to test the "rock" hypothesis .... 
Age 47 now. Actor and related jobs.
Age 7 below, virtually exactly when she was in a supporting role in one of the biggest Hollywood movies .. ever .. in the history of movies. Inflation adjusted, it would probably be in the top 5 to 10 grossing movies in world-wide box office receipts.
40 years later, she's obviously older but really hasnt "changed" that much.
That's it .. answer tomorrow.

They're heeerrre....
And she's still a butterball.

hey boss .. I think you might have the right girl but maybe not the right role for her ?
The "they're here" girl died young (like age 12 or something). They were both in the movies at the same time ... big movies as the director was having good year., and both of them were born in 1975. So a lotta similarities there.
See what you think if you agree?

Underhand pitch to say the least!
I personally don't like her, and can't watch her movies. Can't pinpoint it, but I always turn the channel.

yeah, i gotta "girl" like that. famous, rich, attractive, lotta folks dig her ..blah, blah..
seems like a decent enough person ..but i cant watch her stuff (probably cuz she specializes in roles of characters Id never hang with?).
we'll do a game on her here soon ... see if i'm by myself on her.
Hey, watch what you say about her. When she gets pissed off, she can set stuff on fire with her mind!

She was "Gertie" in E.T. The Extraterrestrial ... and then she was off. Lost her way it seemed for a while (wild child in her 20's), but has worked steadily since she was a little girl. Produces, writes, etc.....
I got nothin'.
me either ... dang its dark under here.
seriously though i dont have any idea who this young lady is ...
thx!
I hope there's room for one more under the rock.

I'm right there with you guys. Only thing I might be able to add is, if/when you click on the photo attachment it says Chloe-Cherry.jpg in the title of the attachment. Does that mean anything?
