Game Wish 11: Character Recognition

Have you ever seen or met someone -- in person, on TV, in a movie, or whatever -- who made you think "Oh my goodness, that's my character!" Who was it (if you know), and what were the similarities?

However, there is one player (who shall be nameless) in my Dreamlyrics message board game for whom all her characters remind me of Dr. Who's assistant, Leela. "Can I kill him now, doctor?".
