Most obvious wig / toupee / hairpiece (s) used on UM - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I couldn't find another topic to even come close to this. So here goes...

Most obvious wig / toupee / hairpiece (s) used on UM

Can either be real or in re-enacted segments.

1. Michael Mowhan - Stack mentions when narrating that Mowhan was "a master of disguises". Yet on the particular photograph that Stack says this I don't know who in the world would be fooled by the ridiculous wig that Mowhan used in the photo. I actually laughed out loud is was so bad!

2. Lyle Moody - the detective talking about the case.

3. Gary Grant Jr - the journalist investigating the case.

Any others?

Two immediately come to mind: the actor playing Keith Reinhard (good thing he wore that hat over his wig--otherwise it NEVER would've been passable), and the actor playing Hugh Harlin. Double points for that one because a fake beard was involved as well.

Speaking of which--the long wig the actress playing Diane Harlin wore. You might remember it from the Tammy Leppert segment. It's awful.

Jeffrey Digman's father.

I always wondered why they put such a hideous wig on an actress for the Tammy Leppert segment, it's not like there's a dearth of young blonde actresses.

IIRC,the man who lost his son in the George Anderson segment.His son was also a soccer player,and he dreamed of George's meeting and talking about him.

Does Liz Carmichael count?

Definitely agree with Meg about the Tammy Leppert segment. I was disappointed with that horrendous wig on the actress because it was so distracting that it took my focus away from the case.

I know they must have had no shortage of lovely young blonde actresses to choose from to portray Tammy. Why did they resort to using such a cheap looking awful wig?

Another one who comes to mind, is a detective who was working with a psychic, I think her name was Dorothy and he stated himself that he wore a hair piece. I don’t know remember her last name, I just remember a few of the cases she solved was about a man who fell off the train and was found by a river, a young girl who was killed by her BF then found buried in an oil drum.

I forgot about that! Her name indeed was Dorothy and her last name was Allison.

The woman playing Pamela June Ray. It didn't even look like it was on correctly; it looked more like it was kind just balanced on the the crown of her head.

The detective's name was Keith Wattenschaidt.

I was unable to find Mr. Digman credible with that thing on his head.

The woman who played Marilyn Depue had one of the worst looking wigs I've ever seen.

YES. I think it's the same wig the actress who played Marie Hilley wore when she was doing that whole charade about being her own twin sister.
