  • When Maria delivered her baby at the end of a season, the repeats of the impending marriage

    played as the next program on the following Monday. It looked like an out of wedlock birth because of that goof putting the marriage right after the birth!

  • Amazing interview, but I wonder where was Part 3?

  • does anybody have sesame street episode 2359 when mumford puts moustaches on sesame street would like to know what people on the street got moustaches from mumford

  • Wonder why she was so uneasy saying to her agent she didn't wanna leave SS?

    Just imagine if she succeeded on some other project having to go.

    Anyway great interview.

  • "I never go up for 'the Soccer Mom next door."

    I think that's true of other races besides Latinos as well. My Mom was Chinese and a stay-at-home suburban Mom, but I still haven't seen anything like that on network TV.

  • OK since shes not leaving, I guess I'll keep watching.

  • You were Great in Death wish! The "cashier". I still wish you would show your talent in major movies. You are and will always be gorgeous. Love you Sonia. Roots
