I think that comes with a collaboration with the writers. I think that we get cast in edgier roles because we are a little more offbeat, so people - as we get to know the writers, and as the writers get to know us, they start to write around us more, and that's why I think the pilot is not always the best way to get to experience a new television show, because we're fitting ourselves into these characters. Whereas as the show evolves, they're writing the characters for us and for our strengths and weaknesses.
Judy GreerI 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.
Judy GreerI enjoy the old-fashioned idea of, like, His Girl Friday and Bringing Up Baby, those old movies.
Judy GreerI 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.
Judy GreerIt's so cheap to just release a movie. You can do it by yourself if you have to. Put in on the Internet if you have to.
Judy GreerSometimes I get really shy when people recognize me, but when it was from Arrested, I'd be like, "So what do you like about it? You watch it? Will you try to watch it when it's on, and not just TiVo it? Because if you don't want it to be taken off the air...." It was really sad when it got taken off the air. But it's really cool. It was nice to have a small part in something with a big life.
