Quotes

Maggie: (On Psych) We have so much fun on the show and yes, the comedy and shenanigans, if you will, that you see on screen is probably doubled off screen. We're always - it almost becomes some sort of game or challenge to crack the other one up, especially when it's their close up. I tend to be a little more professional - no. But James and Dulé, it is very, very funny. It's very hard, even if you look at our blooper reels, it's very hard to get through a take without one of them trying to do something to crack - I mean it really does become a game. (edit)
Maggie: (On season 3 of Psych) This season we add a lot of different elements to the show. You see a little more of an emotional side to Shawn, James' character. I think it's going to be a great season. We'll start to see a little more of the maybe romantic side in Shawn's life play out a little bit more with well, I'm not going to give too much away - it's going to be a really good year and we're so excited that John [Landis is] directing us again. (edit)
Maggie: (On her Psych costars James Roday and Dule Hill) They sing nonstop on set. It doesn't matter if the song was a hit, and it doesn't matter if they even know it, they'll just make up their own words! (edit)
Maggie: I mean, we're just so lucky. I think we all just feel so lucky because we're on a show that we really push ourselves to deliver the best. (edit)
Maggie: (On season 3 of Psych) I think there's a little more weight to the episodes this year. There's a little more substance.

Great
"Underrated"
As I looked at her review page, I believe that her low rating is due the jealous/envious people giving her a low rating b/c they don't like her, and not on her acting skills.
