Emy Coligado (born June 5, 1971) is an American actress, known for her role as Piama Tananahaakna on the sitcom Malcolm in the Middle.
Coligado was born in Geneva, Ohio, and lived in Borger in the Texas Panhandle. She attended Texas Christian University in Fort Worth, where she studied psychology.

She landed a role in the 1st National Tour company before joining the show's Broadway cast; she also performed in a Stuttgart-based German production of the musical.
Coligado moved to Los Angeles in 2000 to pursue an acting career and appeared in minor roles in short films and television dramas. In 2001, she landed a recurring role as Emmy, the medical examiner's assistant, on the drama Crossing Jordan and, in 2002, she was cast in a regular supporting role (as Piama, Francis' wife) on the sitcom Malcolm in the Middle. In 2007, she appeared in a commercial for Soyjoy. Coligado also appears on NBC's web series CTRL.

Ctrl is an American comedy web series of NBC. It is the first stand-alone web series launched by a major television network. The series stars Tony Hale (of Arrested Development) as a typical office-working, self-confidence lacking nerd who discovers he can undo things (as well as employ other keyboard functions) in real life.
It is an adaptation and expansion of the short film Ctrl Z by director Robert Kirbyson which was a winner at the Sundance Film Festival in 2008.
As of early 2012, the episodes appear to have been removed from the NBC website, but can be found on Hulu.
Also features Scott L. Schwartz (seen in the recent Ocean's Eleven trilogy and Spider-Man) as a security guard.
There are also two games on the NBC website. The first lets you guess Stuart's password ("MERLIN'S IVORY BEARD") and watch some extra video clips. The second lets you explore Stuart's desktop. You can use Stuart's password from the first game to watch more of the second.

Used to be like that, like that And this was what I lacked Then this came around, around And that went out of sight
Control, control, control Control, control, control
Was that it or is this it or Is there else or more? Haven't really checked there out yet God, there's so much to explore
Control, control, control Control, control, control
Said I never gonna leave my house No, no
Every now, all this and thats Are only it for then Until finally this is it And all nows have been spent
Control, control, control Control, control, control
Control... Never leave my house
