Let's face it: Some of us need our burly men to come rescue us.
In the summertime, it's always hard to introduce new series; everyone's ready for that in the fall.
It's fun to get to play a lead character that goes all the way through and drives the storyline and makes the final discovery and catches the bad guy.
I think there's something really positive about getting to explore a character for a long time on a TV show and live with that character and live with the choices they make, but it's also really great to step in.
I've been lucky enough to do a few roles where you get to be crazy and wild, put on contacts and different wigs and different hairpieces and dresses and outfits and embody the craziness of it all.
I love TV, and I love a good script.
I constantly have anxiety about being the lead of the show. I don't talk about it because it scares me, but I've always wanted to be a part of something where I could work on a character in such a big manner, and you get offered that with all the trappings of being the lead of the show.
I think that you can't help but bring pieces of who you are. No matter what you do, it comes through you as a vessel.
I am not a particularly aggressive person. That's not Erica.
