No, but the producers of Ryan's Hope wanted Frances Fisher to join the cast as Siobhan Ryan Novak on the show. Marg Helgenberger was eventually cast in that role.

Hmmm I don't see a HUGE resemblance. But they could play sisters believably. Kinda like Julia Roberts and Kyra Sedgwick in "Something to Talk About."
Fisher and Helgenberger are excellent actresses, and both are quite sexy:)

Tonight's CSI: Las Vegas "Maid Man" has Frances Fisher playing Joanna Sapphire. When she is interviewed by Brass in his office she is made up almost like Marg Helgenberger, with the same hair, only slightly older. That scene is immediately followed by a scene with Marg so it appears that she is playing both characters. At first I thought both were Helgenberger but found the casst list to learn it was Fisher. My guess it was another one of those extras that CSI is noted for, not at all a coincidence.

I, too, saw the similarity between Fisher and Helgenberger. The real treat here is that Fisher played a love interest for Ted Danson in several episodes of Becker as Dr. Liz.

Watching her on a re-run of Two and a Half Men (Ixnay on the Oggie Day) spitting image.

Agreed. That's why I came here, lol. Though I think Marg looks older than her stated age.

And here, seeing the promos for the new Resurrection series, I thought she was a dead ringer for June Lockhart of Lassie fame.

Fisher looks great.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who sees the Helgenberger resemblance. I just saw Frances in a Two and a Half Men episode, and would have testified in court that the actress was Marg.
