From Buffy and all the other Movies she did, The Crazy Ones is probably the most different genre she ever worked on. It's definitely fresh for her and healthy for her career.

As happy I am to see her on the show, when I re-watch Buffy and see her acting on episodes like ''The Body'', ''Innocence'', ''Who Are You'' and so forth it makes me feel like she deserves a show with much more emotion going on. She is an brilliant actress and manages to play many parts and she does as good on The Crazy Ones but her character (along others) doesn't have any/many layers.

Could be cause it's still a new show but I don't think it's meant to be focused on the characters much.

How do you feel about Sarah and the show?

PS: I must admit that the latest episode was quite entertaining, Sarah's character was more involved. Here are some pics.

I love this show, doesn't hurt that I love Robin Williams too. I think she's great in it. It shows a different side of her. It's so much better than last year's Ringer! Can we just pretend that ever happened?
 
Again, Ringer isn't something I would watch but she was as great as she usually is on it. I enjoyed watching Ringer and was a little annoyed with the cancellation, it deserved another season.
 
Personally, I think this is a family issue.

A show like The Crazy Ones shoots during the day. She has two children under the age of five, and this means she can actually spend time with them. Anything that 'stretches' her is going to mean fourteen, sixteen, eighteen hour days, which also means she'll never see Charlotte and Rocky. I don't think she wants to give up time with her children.

I never took SMG to be the kind of actress who always needs to test herself with the roles she takes. She takes the roles that interest her, not the ones who are going to win her awards.

I love her on 'The Crazy Ones'.

True, we know SMG is capable of a great range of emotion and can play both comedic and dramatic roles, but I don't understand why people are so quick to treat comedy as if it were a lesser form of acting.

Maybe it is only preference? But regardless, I like her new show.
