After the show’s creatorChuck Lorredissed Pressly’s former costarAnna Faris’ casting in the show, theNot Another Teen Movieactress—who appeared on the sitcom across seven seasons—shared insight into her time working on the series.
“I was there for seven years, but there [were] eight seasons,” Pressly—who played Jill Kendall in the show—exclusively told E! News at the Alice + Olivia breast cancer event Oct. 16, which raised proceeds for the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. “I came on in the second season, but I had seven wonderful years of working with an incredible crew and an incredible cast of women, who were, all of us, just as beautifully flawed as our characters on the show were.”
And it was those costars—which also includedAllison Janney,Mimi KennedyandBeth Hall—that made the experience so special.
“And I think I just really thoroughly enjoyed being able to go to work with girlfriends every day,” she added. “All of us of a certain age, it was nice. It was refreshing.”
