On tonight's premiere episode, Webster plays Stan, an attractive colleague of Emily's who, after a night out, Emily has determined there's something fishy about since he's not interested in going to bed with her!
"We have a couple of potential storylines that involve Stan, the Mormon, and his virginity, which we may or many not explore" executive producer EMILY KAPNEK says, revealing a sneak peek into his role. "I think he's a great character, and there's definitely the possibility of him surfacing again."
In the mid-season comedy, Emily Sanders (Graham) is a successful career woman who has great instincts in every aspect of her life but one -- relationships! After a series of mistakes, the 30-something is determined to make better life choices, something Graham says everyone can understand.
"I think as you've dated a little bit, you definitely try not to make the same mistakes you've made," she says. "So I can relate to that."
Graham, who's famous for her big screen roles in movies like 'Boogie Nights' and 'Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me,' chose to head to the small screen because she believes this show fills a void left open when "Sex and the City" ended its six-year run in 2004.
"I just felt there was nothing out there where women were talking so frankly about their lives," she says. "I felt that it was really the only thing that I was relating to in that way, and I wasn't relating to movies like that."
Graham was also excited to take on a show because of its ever-rare woman's point of view. "I felt it was a great thing for women to watch and feel like their struggles were recorded," she says. "It was empowering."
