And I remember my first season just never hitting my mark and the poor cinematographer, I was never in my light.
-- Charisma Carpenter
Cause I was such a novice and thank God that Sarah was as seasoned as she was because she was really a great leader in that regard in the sense that she would communicate really well with the crew.
-- Charisma Carpenter
Cordelia was good, but it was on a high-school level. As Cordelia changed and evolved, she started to mellow out.
-- Charisma Carpenter
I did Playboy for a very specific reason. Not only was it a good financial move, but it was about the place I was at in my life.
-- Charisma Carpenter
I don't mind playing the same character, but if it's not well done, then I'm not interested.
-- Charisma Carpenter
I don't think that they know fully what's happening with Miss Match so therefore I don't know how many more if any, if the show's even gonna keep going.
-- Charisma Carpenter
I felt really confident in my growth as an actor and I felt really good about the opportunity I was given to go deep.
-- Charisma Carpenter
I had been warned not to get on a motorcycle, sort of. I think there is a clause in most general basic contracts to keep yourself in one piece and not alter your looks without telling them first.
-- Charisma Carpenter
I had developed a sitcom with UPN, but it wasn't picked up.
-- Charisma Carpenter
I really wish I could sing so I could front a band, because that would be a dream come true, totally. I want to sing. Can't do it though.
-- Charisma Carpenter
I think essentially the meaning of life is probably the journey and not really any one thing or an outcome or a result.
-- Charisma Carpenter
I wrapped that Monday and started on my third episode for Miss Match on Thursday of that same week and we just wrapped yesterday cause it was split over the holiday.
-- Charisma Carpenter
I'm a mixed breed and hope to live longer because of it.
-- Charisma Carpenter
I'm shy, and I'm in love with my husband and sex is something I only do with him, yet I have to believably pretend that I'm in love with some actor.
-- Charisma Carpenter
It's been a difficult thing because some great opportunities have come and I've just been holding my breath and praying... I'm basically gambling hoping something will come along this season and if not, I don't know what the future holds.
-- Charisma Carpenter
Most of the time I meet my trainer at the gym and we do a lot of everything: weights circuit with cardio, football drills, sprinting with weights on the treadmill.
-- Charisma Carpenter
No, I'm a horrible singer, I'm awful.
-- Charisma Carpenter
Oh heck yeah, I totally would love to have a Phantom Dennis in real life.
-- Charisma Carpenter
So I begged, half way into season two, for them to let me cut my hair.
-- Charisma Carpenter
So, I'm happy to do that because it's a wonderful working relationship but I will be going out for pilot season for half hour work and that's the gamble I'm taking.
-- Charisma Carpenter
Sometimes decisions get made and it ends up being God doing for you what you couldn't do for yourself.
-- Charisma Carpenter
Sure, I'd take the responsibility of queen any day.
-- Charisma Carpenter
The road Cordelia has travelled, the journey she has taken up to now has been such a joy to play as an actress, because there have been so many chances to do so many different emotions.
-- Charisma Carpenter
There isn't one in particular that I'm working towards but pilot season is coming up and the only thing I can say is that I'm focusing on half-hour.
-- Charisma Carpenter
There's a pretty good chance that you're going to go down when you're on a motorcycle or if you're sky diving or whatever, but that happened before I even got this job, and I haven't sky dived since.
-- Charisma Carpenter
This is funny because I just had a job over the summer for VH1, a project I did called Strange Frequency where I got to play a Goth rock band singer.
-- Charisma Carpenter
Well, they know that I'm not very anxious to get into one hour again.
-- Charisma Carpenter
When I was first starting out, and I was less established, I was really concerned about being typecast.
-- Charisma Carpenter
When you gain 50 pounds during pregnancy like I did, you fear that you'll never get back in shape.
-- Charisma Carpenter
You know, nothing is ever happily-ever-after. Ever.
