Passed on at 99.

From the comments: “A company man to the end. Closest to 100 without going over.”

The price is wrong, bitch

They only make one or two Stralsund crime procedurals per year (21 episodes in 15 calendar years!)

Jette Richter had the only nudity that was clearly lighted. Sadly, she was dead at the time.

You can tell that Sophie Pfennigstorf is topless, but it’s just too damned dark.

Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me was the prequel to the series in the chronology of the story, but was produced after the series ended. Because of scheduling conflicts with several other projects, Lara Flynn Boyle was no longer playing the part of Donna, which brought Moira Kelly into the fold as a replacement.

Moira churned out quite a few topless scenes (never lower body) from 1992-1995, then withdrew from nudity for the rest of her career, which continues to this day. She has now fashioned kind of a Lacey Chabert career in family-oriented fare. If the film has Christmas in the title, there’s a good chance one of them is in it. (Chabert for Hallmark, Kelly for Lifetime).

Moira has her own meme, called Mandyville. Her character (Mandy) on The West Wing was simply dropped without explanation. Since that happened, people refer to a character dropped from a show without explanation as being “on the bus to Mandyville.” (Remember that Richie Cunningham once had an older brother? Three different actors essayed the role from the pilot until season two, but none of them resonated, nor did the character. The other characters just stopped mentioning him. In season 11, Howard comments that he’s proud of his two kids, indicating that Chuck never existed at all. Cue the Twilight Zone music.)

Also in this series:

Incidentally, when I post these collections to the Fun House, there are film clips for all of the entries.

She is a well-known Dutch model. Her ancestry is half Spanish and half Indonesian.

AKA “The Beautiful Summer”

I don’t know who she is, other than that she started as a child star, but she did some excellent nudity here. Note that she played a 13-year-old girl in 2011, and a 17-year-old girl in 2023, so she’s aging very slowly!

I see that she added a vowel to her first name. She started out as “Yle.” Since she is Italian, works in Italy and has an Italian last name, she probably made her first name seem more conventional. (I’m guessing.) I’m still not sure how to pronounce it, even with the new vowel.
