photo
Hey, does anyone mind if I replace the photo with one where she's wearing some clothes? It seems like someone hunted down the single sexiest shot of her on the net and used it here. Maybe a shot of her from the show would be more appropriate. Darthmix 20:44, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Oppose. Although you're right. :) Lambertman 21:17, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, that would be better. It'll be deleted soon anyway. Iorek85 21:27, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

How do you add a photo? I tried but it didn't show up 87.74.35.237 23:34, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

The "Cake" film has been released yet? That'll need some research/alterations

I have started a triva section, please note all of the triva is not pasted from another site.

Pronunciation
Anyone care to add pronunciation of her last name? Is it "chalk" or "chalk-ee" or something else? Cburnett 17:31, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

Cassandra
Isn't her full name Sarah Cassandra Chalke? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.127.170.42 (talk) 22:07, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

German
Her German is fairly good but definitely not fluent, though her French is.

Who says that?


 * As German I say, it is not fairly good. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.103.216.29 (talk) 18:24, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Not good enough. Need more sources. Besides, remember in clips in shows/tv series, the character is not suppose to be fluent. Chalke herself was raised by a German mother and had to attend German Language school. It is quite possible she is fluent (though her pronunciation may be off from her surroundings - my mother and aunts were fluent in Hungarian from being raised in a Hungarian-speaking household, though most natives say their accents/pronunciation are terrible. Fluency is more about complete comprehension in both directions).--Blondtraillite (talk) 16:54, 9 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Some years ago I saw her on Late Night with Conan O'Brien, where she was asked to deliver a few sentences. Born, raised and living in germany I can assure you she speaks fluently with almost no accent. And her unique timbre makes it sound more pleasant to the ear compared to the utterances by the majority of natives.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.180.114.98 (talk) 12:27, 31 May 2010 (UTC)


 * I saw that clip that was pretty poor if thats her level of german. Hey she might speak it perfect when nobody listens?! What really is weird is that it is mentioned she speaks german fluent and french fairly well! Wowthat must be something. Maybe standards are lower in the US I dunno. Well as long as nobody writes a book about her language skillz we might aswell list her as an expert on european languages.--93.132.143.116 (talk) 11:39, 21 September 2012 (UTC)

American or Canadian?
I understand she was born and raised Canadian, but if she's a naturalized American citizen now then the opening paragraph should say she's an American, not a Canadian, actress. Her film and television credits as far as i can tell are all American. I think a re-write saying American actress of Canadian birth, or born and raised in Canada. I'm just curious if she had been born and raised in say, France or Poland, instead Canada if she would still have been listed as a "Polish actress" or French or whatever.148.78.243.26 (talk) 05:25, 1 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Presumably she still has her Canadian citizenship as well. Which makes her still Canadian. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.143.76.26 (talk) 15:44, 4 April 2009 (UTC)


 * But America doesn't allow dual-citizenship. By affirming an American citizen, she would have had to renounce her Canadian citizenship. 24.213.221.193 (talk) 22:54, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
 * That is not true. They have allowed dual citizenship for a long time (more common with minors) but they can't make you give up citizenship in another country as laws differ. However, they can revoke your American citizenship under certain circumstances if you apply for another citizenship while an American citizen (see, for example, Dual Citizenship US Consular Services in Canada. This is actually quite common, despite the American draft and tax laws (I think you may have to choose one if drafted and they conflict, but having trouble searching that). And why not? Aside from the US being her home, I can say it sucks to be working in the country and not have a say, through the vote, of how your taxes are being spent in the US. If you have to pay them, and especially if you do look at it as home, you want to be sure they'll actually be doing some good. --Blondtraillite (talk) 16:47, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

Here she mentions her gaining American Citizen ship the week before I assume the date in the title. In this case do you presume she has renounced her Canadian citizenship? It most certainly means she should be marked as an American in some way. After all she is American now. 72.209.160.88 (talk) 13:52, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

Couldn't it just be changed to Canadian-American? There are a lot of articles on people with dual citizenship and they usually have them hyphenated as such. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.27.71.187 (talk) 06:05, 29 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Right, and I've done that now. --Catgut (talk) 00:41, 24 October 2011 (UTC)

Filmography vs TV
At least one of her films (Ernest Goes to School) was credited in the tables as being a television credit. The movie did not appear in theaters, but still was not television (it was direct-to-film, according to its WikiPage). I assume it was placed under television as an accident so I moved it under film. If it was deliberate, I feel like some form of note/comment is in order.

Perhaps someone slightly more familiar with films/TV might scan through the remaining entries in the tables to make sure no other entries are erroneous. I caught this one only because the "Ernest" films are a childhood favorite :) Clayt85 (talk) 20:33, 16 May 2010 (UTC)
