[Janice]

Reba's been mentioned, but a few pictures never hurt.

[Tweety]

I'll tell you what... you people are GOOD!

When I saw the thread title, and saw that the replies stretched to six pages, I'm thinking "there's no way that there are THAT many famous red-heads on TV!"

Man, was I wrong! There are quite a few mentioned from shows that I've never watched, but I'd forgotten about a lot of those babes from shows that I did watch.

And certainly there are a few fake redheads, but that's ok.

I can't add any to the list, but I sure had just about forgotten a lot of 'em

Good job everyone!

[catlover79]

^ I know!! I guess redheads on TV aren't as rare a breed as I originally thought. :lol:

[Heidi Dawn]

I don't think anyone mentioned Carole Ita White, best known for playing Rosie Greenbaum on 'Laverne & Shirley', she was a redhead. There's a current picture of her on this sitehttp://www.imdb.com/name/nm0924578/

Also, I don't think anyone mentioned Roz Kelly, best known for playing Pinky Tuscadaro on 'Happy Days'. She was a redhead in her day.

And yes, Linda Kaye Henning is a redhead and still has her hair red today.

[repeatshistory]

Here's one of her.

I had such a HUGE crush on Khrystyne Haje when I was younger. Good lord, she's beautiful.

Thanks. Khrystyne Haje definitely gets my vote for favorite redhead girl. I've really been thinking about her a lot lately. I wish she would get more television gigs soon. Also, in case a lot of you haven't been to the Head of the Class forum of these boards, I put up a special thread devoted to her over there. What a pretty lady Khrystyne is! :)

[peachysquirt21]

I'm surprised noone has mentioned Vicki Lawrence.

In addition to Khrystyne Haje (who will always be the #1 redhead to me), I also think these nice ladies deserve to be mentioned:

Angie Everhart (has anyone has seen those Nutrisystem commercials she's been in lately? She has such a great body!)

Jayma Mays (she plays Emma on "Glee")

[Dr. Thong]

First off, I would like to thank Monika for starting this thread, because I have a thing for redheads.

Secondly, I would like to thank the people who started putting pictures in their posts, because a thread like this has to have pictures.;)

And thirdly, one of the greatest redheads of all time, Julianne Moore, who got her start on As The World Turns...
