• Paula Marshall Quote

  "I saw the trailer, but I want to see the whole thing. Rob had called me to say, "Paula, if it was up to me you'd be Claire Allen again. I've got to be honest — to replace Jeremy Piven [with Will & Grace's Bobby Cannavale] is a tall order. That guy is unstoppable, and the chemistry we had was amazing. I only want the best for Rob — he's a great friend and a great writer, one of the best I've ever worked with. I think ABC discovered they took that show off the air way too early."TV Guide: How Cupid Paired Paula Marshall... (November 26, 2008)
