I know.
It's been several years since you've been here.
It has been.
You've been very, very busy.
I understand you've been back in LA.
You're back here for two weeks.
Is that right?
Two weeks.
The longest I've been home in almost two years.
Is that right?
Yes.
You mustn't have pets.
Or do you travel with your pets?
My pet is either with my husband or with me.
She's a good little set dog.
So you're home for--
it must be so nice to be in your home for two weeks.
It feels like magic.
I was out in the yard yesterday, cutting roses,
and picking my five strawberries that I grew.
We're so proud of my five little strawberries.
Were they good strawberries?
Are they big?
They're kind of-- very odd shapes.
I see.
So not good.
Not good.
Keep at it.
So, and I saw that you're in our friend Beth Behr's wedding.
Yes.
What are you going to do?
Are you the brides--
the main bridesmaid?
I'm not.
I I'm actually kind of on the groom's side.
So they've decided to call me a groom's maid.
But I'll be wearing a bridesmaid dress but I'm going to--
I'm sort of there as one of the best men--
guys.
How many women are on the best men's side?
I think just me.
Just you.
So they've just moved you over.
Were there too many women?
Why did they move you to the men's side?
Well, Beth is marrying one of my best friends
in the world, Michael Gladis.
We were on Mad Men together.
And so, I became great friends with her through him.
But I'm one of his besties, so I'm honored.
And I love Beth.
She's fantastic.
She's wonderful.
She's a really good person.
She is.
Does a lot for animals and horses.
She does.
All right.
So you were on Mad Men.
Now you're on Good Girls.
I like that.
It was Mad Men, Good Girls.
I get confused sometimes.
I got the Mad, Good Good Men.
Good Men.
Yeah.
So Good Girls is about--
It's about three women-- two sisters and a best friend--
who are mothers and wives, and sort of find themselves
in financial predicament and decide
to take things into their own hands and rob a grocery store.
As you do.
As you should.
Sure.
That makes total sense.
So the whole cast is women, right?
Well, the lead characters are women.
Yes, Retta, Mae Whitman and myself.
And did you all get along instantly?
Yes.
The very first night, we went out.
We wanted to introduce ourselves,
and we went and had a drink.
And then I was like, maybe we should--
want to go have dinner?
Should we just keep--
And then we ate dinner, and then we're like,
do you want to just--
come back to my house.
Well, you know what?
We'll hang out.
Cut to Mae's lost her pants somewhere in my house.
I don't-- she was uncomfortable.
She was full.
We can't find the pants.
They're somewhere still in my house.
She's a miniature sort of person and so
the pants are not going to fit me.
When I find the pants, I'll know they're her pants.
Wait.
Everyone can identify with pants feeling tight
when you've eaten too much.
No one takes their pants off at someone's house
that you're meeting for the first time.
No one says, oh god.
I am so full.
And yet, that's exactly how it happened.
Wow.
You did get along right away.
We trusted each other immediately.
That's incredible.
And then, OK.
So you're shooting-- was this the first day
you're shooting, where you're shooting the scene of robbing
a bank, and then the same thing was happening in real life?
Oh, well.
It wasn't our first day, but in the pilot episode,
we go and hold up this grocery store with plastic kitchen
gloves on and ski masks.
And we had to break because it turned out someone at the store
next door to where we were holding up a grocery store
really was holding up a store.
And I was like, this is the perfect crime.
Like, any time there's a film set or something,
just sneak in.
And they would think, yeah, they're just shooting it.
They're not really robbing the--
Yeah, they got caught.
Well, good.
I'm glad.
All right.
So it's called Good Girls, not Mad Girls or Good Men.
It's called Good Girls.
It airs tonight and every Monday at 10:00 on NBC.
We'll be right back.
