When I first got the notice I’d be playing The First Wives Club, my girlfriend found out that Linda Bloodworth Thomason was writing the book. She was infinitely more excited than I was. I was like, “WHO?” She then let me know all about Linda’s writing credits and how amazing she was.

I must say, I know as much about TV as she knows about certain legendary music producers, musicians or songwriters.

My girlfriend is certainly the QUEEN of TV knowledge…I am blissfully ignorant. The last TV show I think I was into was probably Good Times. I’m glad that she’ll get a chance to meet Linda when she comes to visit. Linda is such a nice woman, and certainly one incredible writer. This show is going to be soooooo good. Trust me.
