Christa: (On what sticks in her mind about the first season of Scrubs) That my hair - it looks way too dark - and it looks much better blonde. So that would be my main thing.
|
Christa Miller: (On Scrubs' nomination for an Emmy in 2006) If we don't win, we're going to be bitter and angry and walk out in a big huff.
|
Christa: (On Charlotte and William being for the third child) They're kind of ready. They think it'll be fun. But I think once it comes home it won't be as fun as they thought.
|
Christa: (On being pregnant while filming Scrubs) They wrote it into the show because you can't hide it. Then you just look like moon-face weirdo on the show. So they wrote it in so I'm comfortable. But still, at some point you're too fat to be on TV.
|
Christa: (On her network test for ABC) I'd just done and episode of Seinfeld and when I went to do the network test at ABC, I think they were nervous that I was a little too green. So I thought, "Let me see if I can get this Seinfeld tape.
|
Christa: (On her getting the role of Kate O'Brien) I went from the first audition to three more rehersals to the network test in the same outfit, which was brown boots, brown corderoys and a pink t-shirt. Actors get superstitious about, um, you go in for a meeting and if they call you back, you feel like part of it's the outfit. The prodcers must've been really tired of seeing that outfit. I just found that outfit and stuck with it.
|
Christa: When you're doing a pilot it's very nerve-wracking and everyone is trying to, you know, they want it to be picked up.
|
Christa: (On the first season of The Drew Carey Show) It was fun doing that show and the first year was exciting and new.
|
Christa Miller-Lawrence: Keep in mind that my husband writes Jordan’s lines. Every time I say something stupid, he puts it in the script.
|
Christa: We had a big fight over the episode where my character comes back pregnant and tries to seduce her ex-husband, Dr. Cox [John C. McGinley]. Bill had written one scene where the camera would shoot my butt. I called him and said, 'You are not shooting my pregnant butt on television.' He said, 'Oh, yes, I am.' He told me that any actress would do that scene, so Heather Locklear, who was guest-starring in the episode, got on the phone and said, 'I wouldn’t do it. You wouldn’t shoot my pregnant butt.'
|
Christa: I'm in an ADR, which mean that when we did it the first time, either I didn't say it loud enough, but I'm sure it wasn't me. It was them.
|
Christa: (On the character of Kate O'Brien) She was one of the guys and friends with all these guys and sarcastic and always getting in trouble for being mean. Not so much mean as putting her foot in her mouth and saying the wrong thing and yelling at people. So that was fun to do!
|
Christa: (On getting her Seinfeld tape to ABC) I ran over to ABC, and I was just so strung out, and handed it like broadcast news, just like 'Here's the tape,' and then Bruce Helford called me up and said 'You've got it.'
|
Christa: Bruce Helford, the producer, was always on set and always talked to the actors. He was really, really good with actors and really helped with jokes. Even on show night, you know, if you weren't getting it, Bruce could clearly communicate how to do it, which a lot of people don't.
|
Christa: (On Drew Carey) He was appealing and he was a friend. We had a nice relationship. I always felt that Drew and I had chemistry. He was always sweet with me
|
Christa: (On her decision to call Bill when she broke up with her boyfriend) I was thinking, 'Should I call him, should I not call him?' Finally, I called and left a message, and when I didn't hear back from him, I thought, 'Oh, it's too late.'
|
Christa: I like a guy to look like a guy - jeans and a t-shirt, worn-out stuff, no jewelry
|
Christa: It is so fun when you go into labor and don’t know what you are having.
|
Christa: (On pregnancy the second time around) Time seems to pass faster because you’re not poring over What to Expect When You’re Expecting. I know what to expect, so things aren’t so … tragic. With Charlotte, I couldn’t ever sleep. And I had to pee every hour. With this baby, I can’t breathe. It feels like this baby is sitting high up.
