Getting a part where you play something like this is a huge thing, and following women who have done it before, I was very nervous about it. Playing Lois is definitely a responsibility.

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.

It's been a really cool ride and a crazy year. It was not expected to be 13 episodes -- it was four and then it went to 13 -- so it was kind of all over the place, but I feel good and I am excited to get on with the new year. I've got a little bit of an idea [of what will happen] and I'm excited to get in there and explore more of Lois and see where they're gonna take her. With the last episode that we shot, showing her watching everything that's happening, you don't really know where she goes or what she does, so for me the excitement is seeing how this moment of tragedy is going to add a new color to her character.

I look forward to change, but there is a part of me that absolutely dreads it.

We all need to make time for a burger once in a while.

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 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.
