Is Bobbie From Mad Men The Sexy Green M&M?

thumbnail icon: Is Bobbie From Mad Men The Sexy Green M&M?

Have you seen this new commercial for M&Ms Premiums, with the sexy green M&M? The one where the green M&M is so hot that the M&M cameramen are struck dumb by her raw sensuality? Maybe I've been watching too much Mad Men, but after seeing this commercial a hundred times in the past week, I'm convinced that the narrator's voice is Melinda McGraw, aka Bobbie Barrett, who's been stirring up trouble for Don Draper in Season 2. Decide for yourself:

The actual voice of the green M&M, as seen in this bizarrely stupid interview with The Bachelor's Chris Harrison, sounds completely different and not even sexy. And so far there's no way to confirm the identity of the narrator, but I swear to god it's Bobbie. If anyone has any information, tip me off!

I don't think it's her? I actually struggled for a few days to recall where I knew Bobbie from, because her voice was so familiar. Then it came to me: she's Agent Scully's murdered sister Melissa!! ...I'm a nerd.

My apologies, AJ. I misunderstood your post. I completely missed the 'Bobbie' part of your comment, and read it as 'it's not her, it's Scully's sister'.

I feel so stupid. I think I'll leave the internet now.

um...bobbie grosses me out most of the time... m&ms do not. they are delicious, whereas bobbie is disgusting.

i'm sure the actress that PLAYS bobbie is a stand-up gal, but bobbie is the anti-m&m.

Sounds like Kim Cattrall to me. I was doing a search myself and came across your post. I hadn't heard the others you mentioned until now.
