I like doing the comedic episodes because it's refreshing. I enjoy doing comedic things and physical comedy. It's fun.

Emily DeschanelI was a hostess in a restaurant in New York when I was 21, and I was too good of an employee. I was putting most of my energy into that instead of acting. But my father told my sister and me to look at whatever needed to be done and do that job well, no matter what it was.
Emily DeschanelIt's a funny thing. It's an odd thing to have your dad just come and work with you. But I think they all enjoyed working with him. It was a lot of fun. David loved teasing my dad, but I know respects him very much and when he gave him direction, David was always trying to do what he asked and we had a lot of fun.
Emily DeschanelI have a treadmill, and I work out with my trainer, Julie Diamond, as often as possible. She's so positive.

I was terrified that I would embarrass him or he would embarrass me and it was probably one of the more tortuous days of my life. After the first day was under our belt, it was a great opportunity and I'll always look back on that experience fondly.
