- (on the cast of "The 4400") Megalyn Echikunwoke: There's some pretty sexy people on the show. Matthew Ross is pretty sexy. And Patrick Flueger is definitely very sexy. All the men are just huge sexpots.

- (on the open doors for her career created by "The 4400") Megalyn Echikunwoke: Yeah, it's been good. There's lots of stuff going on and people are seeing the shows.... I haven't really played a character like this before, with a big dark side. I haven't been able to play anyone with any kind of darkness, which I have longed for! If you've seen me before it's always been light and bubbly... and relatively boring! [Laughs]

- (when asked if "24" wanted her back) Megalyn Echikunwoke: I think so, yeah. In the second season it was rumored, "Oh, we might want her." but....
