Quote

I like working in television because it's an evolving story that you tell. That's also one of the things I don't like about it, too. Because sometimes it's hard, and just when I think I've nailed something, it changes or we have to change it or change the joke or the character is evolving in a way that I don't have control over.

I think because bullying has really become such a problem right now, I think it's maybe going to be more impactful right now, just because of where that is in society and how much more we're hearing about it.

I like the idea of doing a little movie every week. When you do a movie, you don't know when it's going to come out. In a year, you forget about it. I forget stories that happened on set. I forget who I worked with. I forget my lines, my characters' names. This is so fresh. We make it, and it's on TV. It feels more like a living, breathing thing.

It's really exciting and also it makes me nervous, because I'm like, Well, I figured out how to perform this episode, but what if I'm not as good at what they write for next episode? But that's part of the challenge, and that's what, I hope, ultimately makes me a better actor.

I was not awesome at dancing. For a ballerina, I probably started too late. Plus I enjoyed entertaining people too much.

I like television medium because it feels like we're doing a play, and I learned how to act in theater school, so that comes very naturally to me, this format. I like that people can laugh out loud when we're working. I like that we can make mistakes, unlike being onstage, where you can't.

I think that I have a lot of different personalities inside me, and I can just draw on them when I need to. And that, I don't know, maybe that makes me sort of schizophrenic in my real life, but it helps at work.

At least 35 years ago, you didn't have the internet telling you every single thing that happened in every school and college around the world.

I've done a lot of pilots, and they're all so expositional. In the beginning, I think that it is important to make sure that the audience is invested in us.

My perfect Valentine's Day would be coming home to a giant box waiting for me, and it has a gorgeous dress and high-heeled shoes and a handbag. And someone's waiting to do my hair and makeup. You can tell I've been in too many romantic comedies.

When you're recording a TV show, you really feel like you're in a bubble.

I think that it's just extremely rare to see any kind of TV show that's completely written by one person, regardless of what any showrunner will tell you.

I'm sort of a carb-oholic. I love pasta, and I know it's really simple, but I love pasta with olive oil and crushed red pepper and maybe some Parmesan. I don't really eat cheese anymore, but that would be my favorite. I love a tri colore salad - it's my favorite.

I enjoy meeting someone and then really getting to know them and then falling in love.

I always say I'm not going to care this time, but I always do. Like, I did one this season called Tax Man with Martin Short, which was like, Are you kidding me? Doing a pilot with Martin Short? Like, career high. And I just assumed, because it's Martin Short, like, How are they not going to pick that up? But they didn't.
