Two Actors play Shelly

So from IMDB it appears that Shelly's "body" is played by a male while her face is played by a woman! They could not make the actress look 7 feet tall ala Elsa Lanchester in "Bride of Frankenstein"?

So then in long shots it is the man in make-up, and close-ups it is the woman. *sigh*

In season one, yes. In fact, Shelley was played by a different female actress. In the later episodes, she is always eye-to-eye with other characters, nowhere near 7 ft tall! I'm not sure if they used a body double for full body shots in season 3.
