Would You Let a Robot Live Your Life For You? "Surrogates" Is a Thrill Ride That Explores That Very Concept!

All of us have wished at some point that we could have someone else live our life for us. "Surrogates," an action-packed, murder mystery starring Bruce Willis explores the idea in a thrill ride that will keep you in suspense of not only what is real and what isn't, but who is real and who isn't!

Watch the trailer for the film below!



The film is set in a futuristic world where humans have a "Surrogate," a robot designed to actually live the life of their operator while a human controls them from the safety of home. Thus allows the humans to live vicariously through the "Surrogate" without having to put themselves in danger of random acts of violence. It also eliminates communication and experience with the "real world" which protects the human from experiencing real emotions.

Something goes terribly wrong when a college student actually dies when his surrogate is killed. Agent Tom Greer and his partner Agent Peters are forced into the real world to investigate the murder. They have no idea who they can trust because they have no idea what is real and what is just a "surrogate" for real.

Bonus features on the DVD include a commentary with director Jonathan Mostow. You can also watch the "I Will Not Bow" music video from Breaking Benjamin.

A Tale of Two Sisters... "10 Things I Hate About You: Volume 1" is Worth Checking Out on DVD.

Originally, "10 Things I Hate About You" was a must-see teen flick that launched the careers of Julia Stiles and Heath Ledger. The director of that film turned the premise (which was based on Shakespeare's "Taming of the Shrew") into a hit TV show for ABC Family.

Meet "Kat" and "Bianca," sisters that exist in two very different worlds even though they attend the same High School. Kat (played by "Ned's Declassified" alum Lindsey Shaw) is strong-willed and self confident and can't wait to be done with High School… until she meets the mysterious Patrick Verona. Suddenly, there is a reason to walk the hallowed halls. Bianca (Meaghan Jette Martin) is bound and determined to be popular and will do whatever it takes to fit in. It's sibling rivalry at its best. Is there any love at all between these two polar opposite siblings? We suggest you tune in to see for yourself!

Extra material on the disc includes bloopers, a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the series, and audio commentaries. You'll also get to witness the cast answering crazy questions and see the pilot episodes of another ABC Family series, "Make it or Break it."

"10 Things I Hate About You" Still Relevant 10 Years Later! The 10th Anniversary Edition Comes to DVD.

It's the movie that first brought two Hollywood Heavyweights to our attention, not to mention, boasted a strong supporting cast as well. "10 Things I Hate About You" brought Heath Ledger and Julia Stiles to everyone's attention and gave Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Larisa Oleynik ample time to shine as well.

The story is loosely based on Shakespeare's "The Taming of the Shrew," and centers on Bianca (Oleynik) who wants to date Cameron (Levitt). The only problem is… Bianca isn't allowed to date until her older sister Kat (Stiles) does. Only Kat has no interest in dating. So Cameron and Bianca talk the crush-worthy guy (with the bad reputation), Patrick (Ledger) into wooing Kat. Just when true love is actually blossoming, Kat finds out about the scheme and is understandably furious. Will Patrick be able to convince her that his love is real?

This great new edition comes with cool bonus features like a look back at the making of the movie that features cast members and a screen-test from the late Heath Ledger. There are also deleted scenes and a commentary by the writer's and various cast members. The 2 Disc DVD Set also comes with a digital copy of the movie so you can keep one with you while you are on the go.

The Best of Both Her Worlds Finally Come to DVD! "Hannah Montana:The Movie" is Ready to be Added to Your Home Video Collection!

The friends, the crazy family, the drama, the laughter, the heart-warming moments of knowing that as long as you are surrounded by people who love you, everything is going to be okay... everything fans love about "Hannah Montana," the television series gets bigger and better when "Hannah Montana: The Movie" finally comes to DVD. Yes, Miley and the gang took one of television's most successful family-oriented programs to the big screen and now it's yours to watch over and over again right at home or on the go (thanks to Disney's Digital File Copy)!

In case you haven't seen "Hannah Montana," on the Disney Channel or heard the premise (you know, like you just crawled out from under your rock or you were literally born yesterday), Miley Stewart is your typical teenager, who goes to school and faces the same problems everyone else faces like fitting in, passing tests, tolerating an older brother, and agreeing with her Dad on dating and other major issues. The difference with Miley is that she leads a double life as a mega-successful Pop Star named "Hannah Montana." If anyone found out "Hannah's" real identity, her normal life would be over and any sort of privacy would go right out the window.

Living the life of a Pop Star definitely has its perks and it would be hard not to let all of the attention and fame go to your head at some point. That's exactly what happens in the movie when Miley starts to get a little too big for her designer britches. Her Dad, Bobby Ray, (played by her real-life Dad, Billy Ray Cyus) decides she needs to get back to her roots, so he tricks her into going home to Tennessee.

Check out the trailer for the film below!





Once there, Robby Ray tells Miley that she has two weeks to remember where she comes from or she will have to say goodbye to "Hannah" forever. Being an actress, "Miley" is sure she will have no problem pretending to be country in order to convince her Dad that "Hannah" should live on. Somewhere along the way though, Miley actually starts to remember all the great things about small town living. This creates another dilemma... should "Hannah" actually live on or should Miley just be herself?

Of course, there is usually a boy invloved in Miley's drama and in this case, she reconnects with an old family friend named "Travis." Immediately, there is a spark between the two and Travis is instrumental in reminding Miley all the good things about being from the country.

Here's a sneak peak from the movie:

The Climb



Fans of the show will be delighted to see cast favorites like Jason Earles, Emily Osment, Mitchel Musso and Moises Arias in the feature film and country music favorites like Taylor Swift, and Rascal Flatts.

There is also a hysterical appearance by Tyra Banks. The movie is rated G so you can watch with every member of the family both big and small. You'll laugh together, sing together, maybe even wipe away a tear a two. One thing is for sure, when the movie ends you will probably be appreciating each other just a little more!

BEHIND THE MAGIC

Step behind the camera as we bring you the low-down on Hannah Montana The Movie. We've got a backstage pass to the making of the fab film - and you're invited!

THE STORY…

What's Hannah Montana The Movie all about? "Well, my character has always had the best of both worlds - but she'll have to choose just one in the movie," explains Miley Cyrus. "She's lost herself and her dad decides the best thing to do is to take her home to Tennessee. She's taken back to the real world where she's brought back to reality. She has to go out and get dirty, as well as ride the horse she grew up with!"

BOX OF DELIGHTS!

"I bought some cool ideas to the movie," admits Miley. "There's something we call a 'Hannah box' in the film, which is Hannah's make-up box. She travels around with it and it was me who came up with ideas for the fun things to put inside. I said that it shouldn't look like a normal make-up box because Hannah has a different vibe. I think it came out really cool!"

STUNT HERO!

Jason Earles - who plays Miley's brother Jackson in Hannah Montana - performed all of his own stunts in the movie. "I didn't have a stunt double," the brave star reveals. "I did everything myself. When you see Jackson falling off the ladder, that was me harnessed up!"

KISSY KISSY!

Miley gets to kiss a cute country boy called Travis in the movie - but the Disney star wasn't nervous about the smooch scenes at all. "I wasn't worried about my first movie kiss," reveals Miley. "I don't know… Maybe it's because he's so cute?!"

PONY UP!

It took three weeks for Lucas Till to learn to ride a horse for the film. "I hadn't ridden a horse before I worked on this movie," chuckles Lucas. "My dad did rodeo for the University Of Georgia and always had horse stories, but I hadn't even been on a horse before. Thankfully, it felt natural to me - and it was a lot of fun."

ANIMAL MAGIC!

"I shot a lot of scenes that didn't make it into the movie, but I'm glad they made it onto the DVD," reveals Jason Earles. "There were a few extra scenes with the animals and some other scenes with Cousin Derek - and I they're really funny. Check them out!"

EXTRA EXTRA!

What else does the DVD have to offer? "Well, there are bloopers and behind-the-scenes videos, as well as deleted scenes," explains the movie's director, Peter Chelsom. "One deleted scene sees the British reporter walking into his motel room to find an ostrich by his bed and an alligator in his shower!"

LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTION…

It took 11 weeks to shoot the movie. The cast and crew spent eight and a half weeks filming in Nashville, close to where Miley Cyrus actually grew up. The rest of the film shoot was spent on location in California at landmarks including Santa Monica Pier and Rodeo Drive.

TIME TO CHILL…

The waterfall scene was tough on the actors in the movie. "It was freezing," giggles Miley. "It was a big challenge because we had to rock climb up to the top of this cliff and then jump into the water from up high. Thankfully there were heaters nearby because the water was so cold. It was icy!"

THE STYLE FILES!

"None of the outfits Hannah wears in the movie were brought in stores," reveals the movie's costume designer, Christopher Lawrence. "They were all designed and made by the costume department. We even hand-glued crystals to her sneakers for one scene. It took 13 hours per shoe!"

MADE TO MEASURE!

It cost $70,000 to build the revolving doors seen in the movie. "The building where we were shooting didn't have revolving doors, but I thought they would work really well in the film," explains director, Peter Chelsom. "That's why I decided to build them from scratch!"

TICKLE TIME!

Emily Osment spent four hours getting her feet massaged for one of the scenes in the movie. "It was great," chuckles Emily. "They didn't need me in the shot because it was only my feet - but I kept saying, 'No, I'll do it. It's okay.' I really enjoyed sitting in bed getting my feet rubbed!"

HIGH HEEL HORROR!

"It was so much fun to shoot the shoe scene with Tyra Banks," reveals Miley. "But the problem with that scene is the way that the shoes aren't really very cute. I would never fight over those shoes in real life!"

FAST FACT!

It took two days to film the exploding cake scene in the movie! "I was covered in cream and sponge for hours," giggles Moises Arias.

DID YOU KNOW?

It took the prop team three weeks to create the pumpkin head for the scene where Jackson falls into the pumpkin patch!

SWEET NIBLETS!

Get ready for a giggle-fest! Miley Cyrus and the cast of Hannah Montana The Movie reveal their biggest bloopers. Ooh, the shame…

BIRD BRAIN!

Miley Cyrus says: "The worst thing to happen to me on the set was when I accidentally ate some chicken feed. It was horrible! I was swinging around a barn filled with chickens and things were flying everywhere - which is when some of their food flew into my mouth. It tasted disgusting, but it was very funny!"

ICE ICE BABY!

Jason Earles says: "I have a scene in the movie with an ostrich - and it bit me on the face during our first take! It bit me just above my lip, so I had to put it on ice and then cover up the mark with make-up for the rest of the day. It was the one thing that I didn't want to happen - and it was the very first thing the bird did. Typical!"

FOOT FUN!

Emily Osment says: "My favorite part of filming was a scene where I get my feet rubbed. It was really funny! I was under the covers giggling with joy because it felt so nice. The scene took three hours to film, but it wasn't long enough. I was desperately trying not to laugh out loud!"

GOOF OFF!

Miley Cyrus says: "I had so much fun on the set of the movie. In fact, I've never laughed so hard before! As soon as the cameras stopped rolling, we'd start messing around and getting the giggles. There are probably loads of shots of me pulling some seriously goofy faces on camera or laughing way too hard. I don't think I ever want to see them because they're really embarrassing!"



CAKE CALAMITY!

Moises Arias says: "I wasn't involved in any bloopers - but I had to spend two days covered in cake for the movie. It was pretty funny! The cake was made from real icing, but I don't really like cake - so it wasn't too nice to be stuck underneath gloopy, cakey mess for hours. I stank of cake for days afterwards, too!"

BUGGED OUT!

Jason Earles says: "There was a serious bug problem in Tennessee. They were always giant cicadas jumping around the place and freaking out people. It was really funny to watch the girls scream and run for it whenever the bugs flew in. Eeek!"

BUM DEAL!

Lucas Till says: "Miley is the biggest practical joker I know. I remember her doing a pretty serious scene, but she'd somehow got her hands on a fart machine. She would set off loads of fart sounds and pretend they were coming from her. She was rolling around screaming, 'Oh, my stomach is going to explode!' It was hilarious!"

SLEEP SHAME!

Emily Osment says: "This didn't happen on the movie - but it's a pretty embarrassing moment from my past. I was a sleepwalker when I was little. At one point, I sleepwalked into our kitchen and thought the refrigerator was the bathroom. I opened the door and tried to get in!"

FUNNY FACE!

Lucas Till Says: "When you watch the bloopers on the DVD, you'll see me making a bunch of funny faces. I'm actually a really goofy guy and I made a lot of goofy faces on the set before they started filming. You can see a load of them in the DVD extras!"

FEATHERY FRIENDS!

Miley Cyrus says: "This isn't a blooper, but I befriended some of the chickens on the set. I really wanted to take them home with me. Other stars walk around Hollywood with little dogs under their arms, but I want to walk around with my little chicken!"

A Talk With Miley:

THE PERFECT DAY

What's Miley Cyrus really like? How does she relax? What's she obsessed with? And how would she spend the perfect day? We catch up with the Disney cutie to find out…

Hi Miley! What would you get up to on the perfect day?

At the moment, the perfect day would involve a sleep-in! I'm a night owl who loves to stay up late - but then I find myself with a 6am start time and I'll end up having only two hours sleep. That's why my perfect day would involve sleeping in and then hanging out by the pool with my mum.

What's the best way to chill out?

I love being at home - especially when I'm out by the pool. We have a waterfall in our backyard and it's beautiful. It's lovely to sit out there alone. In fact, I like anywhere I can just be alone. I love being alone!

Do you enjoy the sunshine?

Yeah! There's nothing better than a day off in the sunshine. It would be lovely to just sit back and relax in the sun…

What else do you like to do in your spare time?

I like to ride my bike and I love reading. I also like to watch movies and stay up late. Staying up late is great because I find it really relaxing. It's the only time when everyone else is asleep, so I can have some alone time.

Wait a minute… You haven't mentioned shopping yet! Don't you enjoy shopping?

I love, love, love to go shopping! What girl doesn't?! I don't get to shop as much as I like to, but when I can, I'll go for it.

Where do you keep all your new clothes?

I have a great walk-in closet at home. My closet is the best closet you've ever seen! It's huge and it's filled to the brim because I love clothes.

What else are you obsessed with?

I am completely obsessed with Twitter. I love it. I'm always writing on it and chatting to fans. It's fun. I like Tweeting.

What about travel? Would you like to take a trip around the world?

Definitely! There are loads of things I want to do. I'd love to take off and go backpacking around Europe, but I think it might be a little difficult.

Did you enjoy traveling to Nashville to shoot the new Hannah Montana movie?

That was awesome! I loved going home to Nashville because it's a wonderful place and it's where I grew up. I really enjoyed the tranquility of everything there. I loved the peace and the quiet. It was amazing.

So how would you spend your ideal day in Nashville?

Ooh, I like this question! I'd just relax and enjoy the peace and quiet. You know what? I really wish I had more time to spend in Nashville. Filming the movie was the longest I had been back since I left, but I am hoping to move back there at some point.

Does this mean you're leaving Hollywood?

Not yet! But filming the Hannah Montana movie really made me miss home. When audiences walk away from the film, I hope they feel like they've been to my home. I hope they feel like they understand Nashville because Nashville is everything to me. Nashville is who I am.

Let's get back to your favorite obsessions… What was the last book you read?

I've just finished reading a book called Catcher In The Rye. It's a really great book. If you haven't heard of it, check it out. It's by JD Salinger and it's a bit of a classic.

What makes it such a good book?

It's a really good story. Plus, when I was reading the book, I thought that I was a little similar to the main character. He over-thinks everything and I'm like that.

What do you over-think?

In the book, this guy is obsessed with a girl called Jane - and I can be exactly like that when it comes to boys. I'll be thinking, 'I really hope they like me.' And I'll stress and stress and stress about it.

Did you stress out about your current boyfriend, Justin Gaston?

The day I met Justin, I liked him a lot. But he liked me and was interested in me more than I was interested in him. I thought he was cute, but I wasn't really looking for a boyfriend.

So you didn't stress?

I guess not. We're really happy together and I think he's great.

Before we go, we've got to ask… Where do you see yourself in ten years?

Hopefully I'll still be working in ten years. I love doing films, so I hope I'm doing them for years to come - but I also hope that I've become a bit more settled.

What do you mean by that?

Well, my life is so crazy at the moment, so it would be great to have a more normal life in ten years. I'd love to be doing movies on and off - but I hope I get the chance to spend a lot of time with my family, too. That would be very cool indeed.

CHRISTINA APPLEGATE INTERVIEW FOR THE SECOND SEASON OF SAMANTHA WHO?

Christina Applegate has garnered critical praise for her strength and versatility as an actress in theater, film and television. She has appeared in a string of successful movies including The Sweetest Thing, Wonderland, Surviving Christmas and Anchorman. However, it's her role as Samantha Newly in the hit comedy Samantha Who? that has returned Christina to the spotlight.

Here, the actress reveals her thoughts on the second season of the show and her character. She also talks about being an inspiration to women around the world after her battle with breast cancer…

Is it fun to play a mean girl like Samantha Newly?

CHRISTINA APPLEGATE: It definitely is fun to play a mean girl. Samantha gets away with so much because of her confidence and the way she looks. I get very exhausted playing her because she has so many different sides to her character, but it's also very fun. I really enjoy working on the show.

How are things changing for Samantha in the second season?

CHRISTINA APPLEGATE: The first season explored the idea of someone trying to find out who she really was. We take our past, our history and our experiences with us wherever we go, but this character didn't know anything about her life before the accident. She had a lot of exploring to do in the first season - but now she's two years old. She's had enough experiences to see what her interests are on the surface level, but we delve a little deeper in season two.

What does Samantha discover in season two?

CHRISTINA APPLEGATE: We look into how she feels about love. We also look into what kind of friendships and career she wants. There are also parts of her that are now becoming a little jaded, too. It's a very interesting and fun season.

What happens to Samantha's love life?

CHRISTINA APPLEGATE: During the second season, her love life is going in many different directions - but that's part of her trying to figure out who she is. She is trying to work out which person she wants and not which person is best for her because of what someone else says. Who's that person? I don't know. Todd is always there. There's so much comfort in her relationship with Todd, but I guess we'll have to see what happens.

Is there any time for improvisation on set or do you always stick to the script?

CHRISTINA APPLEGATE: This depends on the writer of the episode we're working on and how finicky they are. There's a lot more freedom to improvise when [creator and writer] Don Todd is there. Not that the others don't let you improvise - but you don't want to step on their toes because that's their work. We usually stick to the script for a couple of takes and then they allow us to do what we want to do. But in the end edit, some of our improvisations make it in, but some just don't work.

The show is very funny… How often do you crack up and laugh in the middle of a scene?

CHRISTINA APPLEGATE: I try not to laugh. I try to stay as professional as I possibly can - but sometimes you can't help it. Melissa McCarthy [who plays Dena on the show] is a very funny person and there are things that she does that tickle me, so I've definitely been known to lose it and ruin her takes. I try not to, though.

Do you have a favorite episode?

CHRISTINA APPLEGATE: The show that was the most enjoyable for me was the episode where everything was told in a flashback. We got to see that Samantha's not all bad, which was interesting. There was part of her that was deeply hurt and that's why she's been so mean to Todd. A lot was revealed in that episode, which is why it was one of my favorites.

Are you envious of the way Samantha can reinvent herself?

CHRISTINA APPLEGATE: Definitely. You get to say, "I wasn't there." You get away with a lot. Who wouldn't be envious of that?

Do you think viewers of the show would like the chance to reinvent themselves?

CHRISTINA APPLEGATE: Definitely - and I honestly think you can do it if you want to do it. Scientists say that you shed your skin every day, so you are literally brand new every morning. You have the opportunity to change your life right now because the past is gone and every day is a new day. The future doesn't exist and it's only what we have right now that's tangible. Saying that, I don't think I'd want to be someone with retrograde amnesia because that's very frightening. It's a very scary place to be.

Is it your philosophy in life to live every day as it comes?

CHRISTINA APPLEGATE: I strive for that; although the past creeps its ugly head every once in a while. There's nothing we can really do about it. It defines who we are, but I try not to live from that or because of it.

You are an inspiration to many women because you are a fighter - especially when it comes to the problems you've faced in your private life. How does it feel to inspire other women around the world?

CHRISTINA APPLEGATE: Well, sometimes I have to be the inspirer for myself, too, which can be hard - but sometimes things happen like this. I don't believe that things happen for a reason. I don't believe in a God that would punish you and then make you have to deal with that. I think that you make reasons out of the things that happen and there were two choices that I could make in what happened to me.

What were those two choices?

CHRISTINA APPLEGATE: I could either fall and succumb to it or I could help people - and I chose the latter. We needed a younger face to a disease that is mostly connected with mothers and grandmothers - and that's not the case. Around 25 per cent of women under the age of 45 have breast cancer. The statistic is quite high.

How important has your relationship with your mother - another survivor of breast cancer - been during this time?

CHRISTINA APPLEGATE: She's been wonderful. I don't want to talk about this too much, but when you go through something like this, the people that you need around you the most are the ones who have been through it. As much as everybody else in my life has been fantastic, they'll never get what it feels like. They will never fully understand that.

We talk about Samantha always learning things about herself, but what have you personally learned about yourself in the last year?

CHRISTINA APPLEGATE: I've always been a 'push-through' kind of person and this has become more apparent to me recently. It's in my nature. I broke my foot a couple years on Broadway and I pushed through. I never think anything is going to take me down, so it was natural for me to push through and continue working and doing what I love to do when I faced this new challenge. I'm happy I'm a 'push-through' kind of person - and I'll continue to push through.


JEAN SMART INTERVIEW FOR THE SECOND SEASON OF SAMANTHA WHO?

A versatile and gifted actress, Jean Smart is well known for her work in television, theater and film. She is an Emmy Award-winner with notable appearances on successful television shows including Frasier and 24. However, with the season two DVD of Samantha Who? about to be released, we chat to the actress about motherhood, second chances and her character - Regina - in the hit ABC comedy…

Why did you sign up for Samantha Who?

JEAN SMART: After working on 24 for a year, I thought it would be fun to get back to a comedy for a while. I thought that Samantha Who? was so cleverly written and I was a fan of Christina Applegate, so it seemed like the ideal project for me.

How would you describe your character in the show?

JEAN SMART: I play Samantha's mother and she is a wonderfully self-obsessed character. It's so fun to play someone who does not live the Zen of life at all. It's very interesting because you meet people like her sometimes and they just don't think in the same way as other people. They don't examine themselves at all. They don't question their motives ever - and it's almost like there's something missing from them. They don't mean to be selfish; that's just the way they are. That's just the way they're wired.

What kind of mother is Regina?

JEAN SMART: Well, my character has been given this great second chance to be the mother that she thinks she should be. She's having a second go in trying to wipe the slate clean from her past and she's trying to be the mother of the year. She's just a little hammer-handed.

Do you believe in second chances?

JEAN SMART: I do - and I think that's one reason why the show appeals to people. We all fantasize about a relationship we'd like to do over or something we'd like to change about our past. I think there are a lot more opportunities for second chances in our lives than we think.

What makes you say that?

JEAN SMART: I think that people get to a certain point in their life and they think that nothing can change. They think, 'Well, this is the way my life is. I don't particularly like it, but I can't do anything about it.' Personally, I think life offers us the opportunity to take chances and make changes all the time. These chances scare us and people think, 'I can't do that.' Or they think, 'My life is too settled and that would be too disruptive.' But everyone's got the opportunity to make these changes. I'm not talking about dumping your wife and running off with an 18-year-old. No, I'm not saying anything like that - but I don't think it's too late to change certain things in your life, such as your career and your relationships.

Is there anything you'd like a second chance with?

JEAN SMART: I was thinking about this the other day. My husband and I don't eat dinner together with my son very much anymore. We used to eat together all the time - especially when my son was little - and it was very important to me because that's the way I grew up. I always used to enjoy the evening meal where I could listen to my parents talk about something they'd read in the papers or hear about anything from their day. So last night, I forced my husband and my son to sit down and have dinner - and it was nice. I just thought to myself, 'Darn it, we're just going to do that again.' It's a tiny thing, but people get stuck in their ways and they think that's just the way it is. They think that nothing can change, but things can always change.

How does your outlook on motherhood compare with your character's?

JEAN SMART: I hope it's not too similar to Regina's past mothering skills. I have a wonderful relationship with my son. When he was little, he liked to cook with me and he would go to antique stores with me - but now he's 19 years old and he doesn't want to do any of that. It breaks my heart. He was 11 or 12 the first time he said he didn't want to go to the store with me and I remember feeling so crushed. A daughter would probably say yes, but not a son. He still holds my hand sometimes - when nobody is looking. We have little arguments every now and then, but we have a great relationship. It's funny. He's 6'3" now, so I have to look up at him if I want to yell at him. He's still very cuddly, which is nice.

How does it feel to have a daughter on screen?

JEAN SMART: It's very nice. I feel very maternal towards Christina, which is lovely for me. In fact, I called her 'mini-me' one time.

How did she feel about being called 'mini-me'?

JEAN SMART: I'm not sure. I'll have to try it one more time and see what she does. It's funny because Christina and I are very, very different in a lot of ways, but we have some very similar things in our life experiences that we share.

Does Christina ask you for advice?

JEAN SMART: She does. For example, the other day she asked me for advice about a business thing. I hope I give her good advice. I'm always there with advice for her if she needs it.

How does the mother-daughter relationship change in the second season of the show?

JEAN SMART: We start to work together, which is a lot of fun. This season, I wanted to make sure that our relationship doesn't get too healthy too soon. I had to keep nudging the writers on that one. It was like when my character on 24 went off her pills. I started to say to the writers, "She's not as much fun off the pills." They said, "You're right. Let's get her back on the meds." It sometimes works when you nudge them lightly.

Do you enjoy playing characters with addictions? Your character in Samantha Who? boozes a lot and in 24 you were popping pills…

JEAN SMART: It can be a lot of fun to play these roles, but I certainly hope I don't get typecast in this way. That would be rather limiting. But yes, it's always fun to have these props. And I do like a glass of wine every now and then.

Before we go, can we ask what it's like to work with Tim Russ [who plays Frank in the show]?

JEAN SMART: Tim Russ is hilarious. I actually did a movie with him years ago, but I hadn't seen him in 20 years so it was really fun to get together again. We did a movie with Virginia Madison called Fire With Fire where I played a nun and Tim played the local deputy - and we got along really well.

What do you think of his character, Frank the doorman?

JEAN SMART: I pitched an idea to the producers of Samantha Who?, which we might see happen towards the end of the second season. I want to see Regina look at Frank as a bit of a challenge, but a good source of information about her daughter - so I think she should always be trying to wheedle stuff out of him. I hope to see her come by the apartment building and bring him treats or try to trick him into telling her something, but constantly being foiled because he's so inscrutable. I hope it makes it into the show.
