Most importantly, they're both champions of pouty determination.
All of this is before they even open their mouths--and once they do, the haughty similarities only multiply. See if you can tell which of the below soundbites came from Annie, and which came from Trudy. (Answers at the bottom of the post, in font that's teenier than Trudy's waist/Annie's reserve of patience for Pierce).
"I never want to lie to you, so I will tell you that I did have a crush on him but it's over, I swear."
"I just think it's odd that the bear is talking."
"You're witty! I always assumed that, but it turns out it's true."
"Women's sizes run smaller. I'm sure you're a 12 everywhere that is counts."
"And by the way, now that I've gotten a good look at one, I don't see what all the fuss is about. Giant thumb in a turtle neck! Whoop-de-doo!"
"They've got me editing the crossword because I'm a girl. And because I love crosswords!"
"I want a rare steak, and I want to see those two men pound each other."
Do you guys feel the link between Trudy and Annie, or am I just in a Mad haze? Oh, and wouldn't it be amazing to see a Community/Mad Men crossover of some sort? Abed as an eccentric client, spouting "talkie" quotes as Roger Sterling looks on suspiciously?
