When I first got the job, I was told nothing about my character. She's an anthropologist and she's tough, she's a female Indiana Jones. That's what I went into [Lost] knowing.

I've always wanted to do an adult cartoon, because I want a job where you can just drive up in your pajamas, have a cup of tea and not even get dressed, and you've gone to work for the day. What a great gig!

I'm such a fan girl when it comes to movies, TV and sci-fi, sometimes I can't believe I actually get to be in them.

If I have the power to post 'Happy Birthday' on someone's Facebook page and make them feel really good, it feels really good to make other people feel really good. I love it. I'm a huge Facebook and Twitter person. And I love talking to my fans. It's fun.

I'm not Irish. Just because I have red hair doesn't mean I'm a lucky charm, you know?

I hate watching myself on TV, I know a lot of actors say that, but it's true for me. It makes me sweat, I have to hide behind a cushion.

Actors who say they don't watch TV are stupid. I was raised by TV! And it's how I research for auditions.
