"They say that just being relaxed is the most important thing [in acting]. I take that to another level, I think kinda like yawning and...like being partially asleep onstage is also good, but whatever." - Sherie Rene Scott

Posted: 5/23/09 at 5:55pmDid anyone other than me think that Megan Mullally should play Karen in Will & Grace? For anyone that closely followed Studio 60, Aaron Sorkin based Harriet on ex-girlfriend, Kristin Chenoweth. Also, pretty much the entire Pushing Daisies cast can sing decently. Check out Anna Friel in "Irish Jam" and Lee Pace in "Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day". Sorry for the babbling and jumping from one thing to the other, probably wasting a couple minutes of your life that you'll never get back.

As great as it would be to have Angela Lansbury play Bea's role, she's too old. I'd envision GOLDEN GIRLS casting to go something like --
Dorothy - Joanna Gleason
Blanche - Marin Mazzie
Rose - Christine Ebersole
Sophia - Angela Lansbury
