  1. > “Hart [Hanson, series creator] knocked on my trailer door, which was not a usual thing, he wasn’t knocking on my door often,” she recalled. “He took me aside and says, ‘The studio has concerns about your work.’ They said that I was late and unprepared. That to me — I get emotional just thinking about it now because it was probably shame.”

    > She continued, “I mean, I was a wreck. I took it so hard. I was such a fragile person at the time. I got hardened up doing that show for so long. I was not sleeping, I was so stressed out. I was already, I’m an emotional person, so I was just beside myself.”

  2. One of the best ways to respect the people you work with, is to be respectful of their time.

  3. This interview is so fucking tone deaf. Oh, is your Hollywood acting job so hard?!?! And your debilitating ADHD?!?! Get some prospective. In the early seasons she made 30-40k per episode. 22 episodes. You do the math. Real life is hard. Acting is not real life.

  4. Now here’s a show you could reboot and no one would be mad. Nobody is like “we have to protect the legacy of Bones!” No wr just want more Bones

  5. If they had given her a driver, she could work on lines during the commute. They set her up to fail, like they had “no idea” 16 hour days would hamper her performance…

  6. A bit of karma for the way she scolded Peter for being late with the pizzas.
