Starting May 20th, 2008, your local store will be selling the complete 1st season of "The Bill Engvall Show" featuring yours truly in the episode, "Have You Seen The Muffins Man!"

This is me with series regular Skyler Gisondo, who plays Bill's son, Bryan Pearson. In my role, I am Barbara, the Sandwich Cart Lady at the building where Bill works. I hear that his wife is selling muffins to make extra money, and through a blog sent around by Tim Meadow's character, I come to understand (wrongly) that "Tiny Bryan" isn't growing, and that's why his mom is forced to sell her wears door to door!

AMERICAN BODY SHOP

I played Tonya, the Quadriplegic, on episode #4 of the Comedy Central series called, "American Body Shop." It's a wonderful guest-star part, and VERY funny.

And it's available for you to view on the web at the following code:

The show was part-improv -- on the order of "Reno 911."
Wicked funny!

American Body Shop! With my fellow Guest Stars:
Jed Rees, Bevan Kaye, Dana Reed, and me.
I'm blowing into my wheelchair steering device... one of my funny bits!
You might remember Jed from "Galaxy Quest", and Bevan & Dana are talented, amazing stunt actors!

"Surrender Dorothy" was the CBS Sunday night movie, January 1st at 9:00 p.m. /8:00 central. I was in three scenes, one at the beginning, then another as a flashback as Sara dies, then my big scene with Diane Keaton near the end of the movie.

The kind, wonderful Charles McDougall, who directed me in "Surrender Dorothy," won an Emmy for his work on the pilot for "Desperate Housewives!" Very cool!

From my "Malcolm In The Middle" shoot!
Here's a photo of Bryan Cranston and me after shooting our big crying scene for 7 hours!!
