Christine Baranski question - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I have a rather unique question. I am not sure if I put this in the right forum. I stumbled upon this YouTube video.

Fast forward to the 3:01 mark.

That lady in that car commercial looks and sounds like a young Christine Baranski, doesn't she? I read on Wikipedia that she is in her 60s so she definitely would have been old enough to appear in an old commercial like that.

I can't say for sure, but I don't think that is her. It doesn't look much like her, and her voice is different. I mean, I guess it could be her, but i don't think so.

The commercial looks like it could have been from the 1970s. If Christine Baranski is in her 60s, then she would have likely still been in her teens when the ad aired. That woman looks a lot older than that.

Christine would have just started her acting career at the same time. You might have seen her on "The Brady Bunch" in the slumber party episode where she gets Marcia in big trouble.

Just to refresh your memory, this is what she looked like in that episode:

Thank you. It's too bad that the ad didn't identify the ladies name as well as websites listing the commercials that famous people have been in but that is understandable.

That story isn't true. Christine confirms it....

But I agree the young actress in the Brady Bunch episode has a remarkable resemblance to Christine Baranski.
