Hmm... the whole age thing... I just keep thinking about this in relation to Emily Procter on CSI:MIA. Emily is gorgeous, but I am betting that you won't hear her character Calleigh announcing that she is 38 yrs old anytime soon. (Dear Lord, please please let me look like that when I'm 38)
Emily Procter is gorgeous and looks about 30. I never would have known she was 38 if I hadn't read articles that mention her age.
I think that Lindsay/Anna's age appearance on the show varies a lot with the material scene by scene. Some of the lighter season 2 moments make her look a lot younger, but any angsty moments/lighting age her (and by 'age her', I don't mean old, I just mean age variances). In a way, the differences help portray the mood of the scene and the seriousness. *shrugs*
I agree that the serious scenes age her. She scrunches up her face in a way that doesn't do her any favors. When they were doing the light-hearted stuff in season two, she looked younger, though I still don't think she could pass for younger than 32.
