Jean Smart on "Samantha Who?"
This ABC comedy starring Christina Applegate was on the air for only two seasons, but it created lifelong friendships among the cast, which included Melissa McCarthy, Jennifer Esposito, and Barry Watson.
“This was a special one,” says Smart, who played Samantha’s mom, Regina. “We all still get together regularly — usually at Christina’s every New Year’s.”
It also earned Smart her third Emmy award with an episode involving drunken makeovers.
“I credit Melissa McCarthy for that,” Smart says of her scene partner. “She’s hysterical.”
