I personally love a cliffhanger - I think it just extends the pleasure of viewing.

AMC has a track record for finding actors who have been working actors but not names yet and casting them.

Crime shows are really popular, in general, but usually, at the end of every episode, you have to let go of the people that you've invested in and then, the next week, get somebody else.

A lot of cop shows, because they have the restraints of having a new case every episode, the victims often become these kind of nameless, faceless plot points, and as an audience we don't feel anything for those people.

People say to me, 'Oh, being a mother must make you a better actor,' and I think, 'Well, I never sleep, I have very little time to think about anything except when I'm actually there.' I wonder whether that makes me a better actor. I think it must on some level.

It's very nice to be in a show where your vanity is completely out of the picture.

I don't watch television because I have a tiny baby daughter. I'm useless.
