The Stars Speak:
  • From an Orlando, Florida Convention:
    Nana Visitor: "And the episode where we all got the aphasia, where we were just saying words that didn't make sense. And let me tell you, it wasn't like, just say whatever you want. No, no, no, no! That was all scripted, and we had to say every single word right or we had to go back and do it again. [laughter]

    "So we were all... and it didn't make any sense, it meant nothing, there was nothing to associate it with. So we were all struggling on that one."
