What is beautiful, talented, threatens to have her dog eaten by Carl and uncredited for the episode? Well for you first season fans, you might know whom I'm talking about or maybe not. The lady I speak of is Wendy Benson. I suppose you don't recognize her name. She wasn't credited for her appearance in the episode, "The Wraps." Still need more help? She was the Antique Store Owner. Ah, now you remember. Shame on you if you don't. Wendy Benson is nothing short of an outstanding actress from her roles in the tv movies James Dean, the recent TNT movie where she played Julie Harris. She has had roles in a couple tv series including the TNT series Bull, which was a terrific drama. Along with the now finished Unhappily Ever After, a WB show.

Wendy's genre appearances have been small in number but definitely remarkable. She appeared in Wishmaster, as Shannon Amberson, along side great actors like Robert Englund. The first Wishmaster was a decent horror movie considering it came from Wes Craven. Wendy Benson has had guest-starring parts in sci-fi shows such as X-Files and Charmed. Truly amazing to watch Wendy Benson has established a fine career, and from her turns on Bull, and tv movie James Dean. I can honestly say the sky is the limit for her and her natural ability to take a role and make it believable and entertaining. With that kind of passion, I only hope she can return one day and get even with Carl or assume a new character on the show. She would be great as a new vicious Link looking to settle a score with Carl. It would be a great play on her earlier appearance.
