Women We Love: Elizabeth Mitchell

Object of our affection: Elizabeth Mitchell, actress.

- Like many before her, she got her starts in the soaps with Loving.

- Also on television, she starred in the made-for-TV biopics Gia, The Linda McCartney Story (as the title character) and 3: The Dale Earnhardt Story, and played Dr. Kim Legaspi, Kerry Weaver's first lesbian love, on ER.

- On film, she made us believe someone could fall for Tim Allen in The Santa Clause 2 and stuck around as Mrs. Claus for the third chapter of the yuletide trilogy, The Escape Clause.

- Other movie appearances include Frequency, Nurse Betty and Running Scared.

- She is best known for her current role as Dr. Juliet Burke on the hit drama Lost, which made its triumphant return to primetime this evening. Word has it that she'll be hooking up with our favorite castaway Sawyer this season.
