In a 2000 interview, she named Edie Falco of The Sopranos to be her favorite actress and considered The Sopranos to be the smartest and most original show on TV then.
Elizabeth: I think sometimes in shows the characters are not very relatable because maybe they have a lot of money or their circumstances are unusual. I think in October Road the characters are people that most people know in their own lives.
Elizabeth: (on playing her character in "October Road") It's a little bit of a tough character to play because obviously I've made a really bad decision. On the show the character of Owen, my husband, is a very likable character. So, you don't want people thinking I'm a total villain and a horrible person.
