tvs used shows
It used to be only on TV that women could lead, that a show could be based on a woman
dog married funny-travel
I was young. I was newly married. And I had worked like a dog. I just wanted to live and travel.
idols whole-life whole
Being a teen idol is what I've waited for my whole life
daughter mind female
I started to watch Damages and all of these amazing, female-driven shows, and it was something that was always in the back of my mind. Then, once I had my daughter, I realized that I was done living the romantic lifestyle, and nothing offers that more than television.
growing-up responsibility thinking
I think that's what growing up is all about. It's about taking on new responsibilities and learning what you can handle, and learning what you can't.
pay clip should
I clip coupons all the time. Why should you pay more for something that someone else is paying less for?
heroic film standing-out
But there are still only certain film genres where a woman can stand out, be heroic, be the centerpiece.
able firsts my-family
My family comes first, and you have to be in charge to be able to protect that. You have to be the one who says no or you don't have a life, which is what I found out the first time.
strong character female-role-models
When you've played Buffy - who's such a strong female role model - it's really hard for another female character to compare to her.
weekend pilots hiatus
I was very burned out after Buffy. It was exhausting. It took me from essentially 18 on the pilot to being 24 and married when we finished. That show was my life. I was doing movies on the hiatuses and on weekends, but I needed to explore and live that gypsy lifestyle.
hygiene meals trainers
How can women be as thin as we are? We have personal trainers to work us out. We have specially prepared meals.
cake pieces eating
Really, how bad is eating a piece of cake? Being bad is murdering someone. That's bad. Don't do that.
home night thinking
I also think it was important for me and Freddie to be able to have a lot of time to share our lives at the beginning of our marriage rather than my coming home at 9 or 10 at night from the set. Things have really worked out for the best for both of us.
wall creativity trying
I try never to say no when it comes to creativity, but I do try and lead down an "appropriate road" - like not on furniture or the walls.
