ANDREAPARKER:
and independent!
AskNBC: hollyv says:
Hey Andrea, just wanted to know if you'll be working on any other films, or TV
movies in the future?
ANDREAPARKER:
Of course!
AskNBC: guest-jahan says:
Here is a question for Ms. Andrea Parker: Is this the last season! It seems The
Pretender is running out of stories!
ANDREAPARKER:
OOOHHH you are so cold! Is this Mr. Raines?
AskNBC: guest-ilovejarod says:
I love that your character's name matches yours. What is the atmosphere on the
set? Is everybody nice? Do you guys joke around?
ANDREAPARKER:
I work with the most talented and loving crew imaginable. When the cameras
aren't rolling there is much laughter!
AskNBC: guest-didi says:
Andrea, Do you find that your character is becoming more "humane" in
her dealings with Jarod, Broots, and Sidney? In one of the first shows were you
"involved" with Lyle? I think Jarod and Miss Parker have a close
attachment "she" is afraid to admit. I really love your character and
the facial expressions are the greatest along with the comments...don't stop!
ANDREAPARKER:
Unfortunately yes!!!...hahaha. Thank you for the remarks.
AskNBC: guest-peggy says:
How alike is your personality and the character you play?
ANDREAPARKER:
That depends on my mood. These days I am feeling closer to Miss Parker than ever
before.
AskNBC: guest-southernbelle says:
Will we be seeing a romantic involvement between Jarod and Miss Parker in the
future?
ANDREAPARKER:
I honestly don't know.
AskNBC: guest-leslie_71 says:
Andrea...The Pretender has gotten even better this year! How has the show
changed from the first season?
ANDREAPARKER:
That's a tough one...how do you think it has changed?
AskNBC: guest-southernbelle says:
What are your thoughts on Miss Parker's relationship with her father now that
Lyle is in the picture?
ANDREAPARKER:
Just wait. You haven't seen nothing yet!
AskNBC: guest-ilovejarod says:
What do you like best about your character? What would you like to see happen
with your character?
ANDREAPARKER:
I appreciate her sarcasm more than any of her qualities. Pretty much anything I
would like to see her experience will happen when the series is though.
ANDREAPARKER:
The only other thing I would like to play up more is her quitting smoking.
AskNBC: guest-julie1 says:
Salute Andrea! Do you think there are real PRETENDER in the world?
ANDREAPARKER:
Wouldn't that be nice? Look out Saddam Hussein!
AskNBC: guest-justdandy1 says:
I love how all of the characters continue to evolve. Outstanding Acting!
Question: In your opinion, given everything that has transpired, does Miss
Parker REALLY want Jarod returned to the Centre?
ANDREAPARKER:
You had to go deep. That is intensely complicated. I would like to keep my
artistic choices personal. What would you like to think?
AskNBC: guest-midori_special says:
If Miss Parker were captured by people-eating cows from outer space, would she
use brains or brawn to escape?
AskNBC: guest-midori_special says:
The Pretender is the BEST show on TV. Everyone loves Miss Parker! Do you have
any input in your character's development or actions?
ANDREAPARKER:
Most definitely.
AskNBC: guest-kathleen says:
Is it a coincidence that your character's name and yours are the same?
ANDREAPARKER:
Complete and total.
AskNBC: guest-Aleri says:
Andrea, how did you get into acting? I love your character on the Pretender!
ANDREAPARKER:
It was a natural progression from my years on stage as a dancer.
AskNBC: guest-msparker_80 says:
In the future, do you see yourself in front, or behind the cameras?
ANDREAPARKER:
Both.
AskNBC: guest-jen says:
Andrea I'm a huge fan of the show. Is there any episode ideas that you're
pushing the writers for??
ANDREAPARKER:
Really, all I want to see more of that they havenšt written for already is the
smoking issue.
AskNBC: guest-pixie says:
What is the most bizarre question you have been asked in an interview?
ANDREAPARKER:
That people eating cow one!
AskNBC: guest-susie says:
Do you like the stylish clothes you get to wear on the set? Do you get to keep
them? Do you usually where that kind of clothing?
ANDREAPARKER:
I think my costume designer is a goddess. I look forward to every fitting. I am
her personal Barbie doll and spoiled rotten.
ANDREAPARKER:
My character preparation is complete when I step into wardrobe...but there is no
way in hell that you would find me in any of those clothes or shoes on my own
time!!!!!!!!!!!
ANDREAPARKER:
Mostly because that fastidiously attire is related to Miss Parker and her
behavior. When you see me on the street, if I am not working or partying, you
will find me in jeans and no makeup.
AskNBC: guest-pyrephox18 says:
What would you like to see happen with your character, that you know never will?
ANDREAPARKER:

ANDREAPARKER:
Yes.
AskNBC: patrickphile says:
Andrea, how do you choose the roles you take? Are there certain character types
you like to play, or certain things you look for in a script?
ANDREAPARKER:
First is the quality of the scripts and depending on whether it is TV or film, I
look at the producers or directors. Mostly it is the writing.
AskNBC: guest-ambrosia says:
Are you worried about being type cast as 'Miss Parker'?
ANDREAPARKER:
No.
AskNBC: guest-arkhamer says:
Did you ever think you're character would be this popular?
ANDREAPARKER:
Tell the truth, I am surprised that she isn't more popular than she is. She is
refreshing, dynamic, and masculine. I could go on and on with adjectives to
describe how different. she is from other TV characters.
ANDREAPARKER:
female characters!
AskNBC: guest-pixie says:
Do you receive weird fan mail more suited to your character not yourself?
ANDREAPARKER:
but I do appreciate not being shoved down people's throats.
ANDREAPARKER:
no.

Miss Parker seems to get softer and more caring, do you like this change ?
ANDREAPARKER:
No
AskNBC: guest-leslie_71 says:
Andrea, Ms Parker is such a serious character. Would you ever want to try acting
in a sitcom in the future?
ANDREAPARKER:
My experience has been more comedic than dramatic. I supenged myself as a guest
artist on many different sitcoms. I have even had quite a few sitcom pilots that
never flew. My love is comedy, but I can't help but enjoy being mean and ornery.
Besides I think Miss Parker offers a lot of comic relief to the Pretender.
NBC_Live:
Here's our next to last question...

What's it like working with a costar you hardly ever see???
ANDREAPARKER:
The perfect marriage.
NBC_Live:

I love when your character lets the guys have it. Do you ever help the writers
with those zingers?

I wish the writers were always with me.
