And hey-the psychiatrist in the show is Italian also. So people are going to focus on what they want to focus on. There's not much you can do about that.

When a show has gotten as much attention as this one, everyone wants to join in with something to say.

I've also learned to no longer feel guilty if I'm invited out and don't want to go. If I start to say to myself, 'What's wrong with you that you're staying in five nights in a row to watch 'Forensic Files' instead of going out with your friends' I remind myself that it's what I need to do for myself at that point.

The high-grossing films are not all that interesting to me, I have to say. It's not stuff I would want to be in. Yes, you would want the big paycheck, but that's never really been my concern.

I've never been all that interested or aware of what people are thinking about me or saying about me. I think that has kept me safest and sanest.

I'm just not one of those people who thought having biological children was that important, to me it was more about wanting to raise a child.
