The Riddle
Of a famous trilogy, I acted in three parts.
I cracked murders on Hallmark with puzzle solving smarts.
As an urban cartoonist, I never had much luck.
I hope I'm not remembered for my romance with a duck.
Answer
Actress Lea Thompson was in all of the movies in the Back to the Future Trilogy, and later played a soccer mom recruited to solve crimes in Hallmark's nine Jane Doe movies. She also had the title role of a cartoonist in New York on Caroline in the City, which never achieved the critical or commercial success of the other must see TV shows. Still, it's better than her lead role as the romantic interest in Howard the Duck.
