Dear shiznake:

Thank you for your question. I can't be sure of it, but is this who
you're looking for?

Specifically, I'm NOT interested in the middle-age blonde woman that
appears on the "Remote Control Help" channel, but the younger brunette
that appears on the Dish Networks house advertisements that are shown
on all channels. I have seen two advertisements with her as the sole
actor. In one she is wearing a motorcycle jacket, and in the other she
is wearing a tight, black lace shirt. In both she is wearing leather
pants.
I'm interested in any information (name, bio, other appearances in
commercials/television/film, etc.), and contact information for her
agent.

Hi blader:

Tia Mariler is not the one I'm looking for. The woman I am referring
to is much younger (I'd guess 18-24 years old). Check out my previous
clarification.

Thanks,
shiznake

This would be the woman that is usually very small at the beginning of
the commercial, and walks forward towards the camera will extoling the
virtues of Pay-Per-View movies?

Clarification of Question by shiznake-ga on 17 Jul 2002 18:46 PDT
Hi googlebrain:

In the two commercials I have seen, she is advertising Pay-Per-View
movies. The commercials usually begin with a wide shot of her, and
then there are a variety of cutaways of just her face, half of her
body, etc. She is heavily made up with bright red lipstick. Also, it
was just pointed out to me that she is more sandy-blonde than
brunette.

Thanks,
shiznake

Hi aevum:

In regards to your posted comment, it is not Tanya Memme. The woman I
am looking for appears only on Dish Networks, not Direct TV. They are
in the process of merging, but they still have distinct marketing and
branding for their services.

Thanks,
Shiznake

Is she there by any chance in the "Getting It" ad ?

Clarification of Question by shiznake-ga on 18 Jul 2002 13:19 PDT
Hi gopalkamat:

I don't remember the lines from the advertisement, but that sounds
familiar. If it was the 'Getting It' ad, would you know who it is?

Thanks,
shiznake

Shiznake,

The Dish Network actor you are referring to is shown in the following
composite image (from frame grabs found on the Web):

Hi huntsman:

That's her.
I'm interested in any information that may be publicly available on
the web (name, bio, other appearances in commercials/television/film,
etc.), and contact information for her agent.
Please let me know what you come up with.

Thanks,

shiznake,

Here's a brief update. 

DishTV's parent company is Echostar Communications, and their
headquarters are not far from my home. I went there on Tuesday
7/30/02, and was given the name of a production staff member in
DishTV's "Pay Per View" division.

Although this person was not immediately available, I left a phone
message and they called me back later on Tuesday. They know the actor,
at least by face, and will try to find out any professional
information.

Still tracking,
huntsman

Hi huntsman,

Thank you for your persistence. I have also been calling around Echo
Star, but with little success. The ad agency they used for one of
their commercials is Messner Vetere Berger McNamee Schmetterer Euro
RSCG, New York. Perhaps that might be a good avenue for exploration
also.

Good Luck,
shiznake

Shiznake,

I have been in touch with Echostar Communications several times, but
am still waiting for an answer (yea or nay). The individual I have
been contacting is waiting for a reply from another person outside the
company.

I don't know if they will be able to provide an answer before this
question expires on August 16th, 17:47 PDT.

Do you want to repost your question again (if you do so, refer to this
original question's URL), or just let it expire?

Thanks for your patience,
Huntsman

I don't have DiSH but I have direct tv.  Since Direct Tv and DiSH are
now one big company could DiSH be using the Direct TV girl  tanya
memme... here's a link to her site... http://www.tanyamemme.com/
