No, honestly, I was quite intrigued by it. I thought it was smart! Obviously, it was symbolic of Ally’s biological clock ticking away, and I thought, what a great way to do that. I loved the fantasy sequences; I loved that we got to see her imagination come to life — on the imaginary dancing baby in Ally McBeal (1997).

I got a call from a girlfriend in L.A. She was also an actress, doing what they refer to as “pilot season”. She had read the script and she called me about it, and then I called my agent and he said, “Oh, yeah, I saw that and I passed”. [Beat] And I said, “Oh, well maybe we should revisit it”. So I did. I eventually flew out and screen-tested, and I got the part — on how she got Ally McBeal (1997).
