Heather Graham Like Totally Relates To Her Relatable New Show
Heather Graham was on hand to face the critics at the TCAs (the Television Critics Association press orgy) yesterday, promoting her midseason ABC show Emily's Reason's Why Not (odds that this unwieldy title will be hacked down to the simple Emily before it reaches the air: 60/40). The LAT's Paul Brownfield fights off the little reporter in his pants ("I am immediately a 14-year-old boy. She is wearing a dark lavender dress, Lycra, scooped out teasingly in the back and strategically in front, and flip-flops") to blog some of the words coming out of Graham's mouth:
"I feel like the show is relatable to anyone and I definitely relate to it," she tells the stunned TV press. Cue the "Sex and the City"-was-an-inspiration quote. "I related to it and I felt that it was the only thing I related to in that way," says Graham of "Sex."
Note to Graham's and/or ABC's publicists: Never teach her a new word right before she has to speak to the press.
