I think the easy assumption to make about Judy is that shes kind of a Martha Stewart figure.
Actually, in some ways shes more like Paula Deen, just sort of that weird Southern friendly quality.
My mother was Southern, and IknowSouthern women.
Ive really loved playing her and the show is just so great, they give you so much leeway.
Were you a fan ofOrangebefore signing on?
Oh, yes, I wanted in.
Luckily [creator] Jenji Kohan was a fan ofThe Days and Nights of Molly Dodd.
[Brown starred on the comedy from 1987 to 1991.]
I got a call about being on the show, and I was on a plane the next day.
And then, of course, it turned out thatOrangeis filmed on the same soundstage thatMolly Doddwas.
So two of my happiest TV experiences happened in the same place.
Its a good-luck building.
