…in 2009TV land was light but fun this year.  I played a neurotic ex-girlfriend of Shawn Spencer on “Psych”, played by the talented James Roday.

Sadly, I didn’t get to work with Maggie again, but I did have a scene with the lovely Devon Weigal.  Here is a pic of us on set.

One of the things I love the most about my career is that I am constantly meeting new and wonderful people from around the world. These relationships have let to some wonderful adventures and travel.  In fact, it all came full circle when Maggie invited me to see James in a fabulous play called “Extinction” in LA last month, directed by my new NYC friend, Wayne Kasserman.

I loved this play. Written by Gabe McKinley, the script explored a number of contemporary topics in such an honest, and real way, that I think that most of the audience were left in this perfect, if not uncomfortable state to question their own views on fidelity, objectification, love, friendship and personal ethics. I was so inspired and remembered how much I do love theatre. Time to put on a play again perhaps?

The last role of the year was a tiny role in an episode of Fox’s new hit show “Fringe”.

Sadly, I die in the teaser when an earthquake causes two realities to merge. (Yes, this is sci-fi people). The coolest part of this experience was having my very first life casting. They needed to make an exact replica of my face so that they could make a body dummy to morph with another character, post earthquake. What a way to die!

Here are a few pics of the process.  It was actually kind of a relaxing experience! I meditated throughout the 15 minutes that I was under the plaster. Claustrophobes beware!
