    • Quotes
      I cast Gina Rodriguez as my guest star in an Army Wives (2007) episode. We got to be friends. I really tried to get her on Mean Girls 2 (2011), and she wound up taking care of my kids sometimes when they were little. When I heard she got the show I immediately got in touch with her to say, "Gina, can you put in a good word for me?"
