How the writers dealt with the unexpected.
The writing has become more creative, and what's very interesting is to see how people will write around real life situations. For example, Charisma Carpenter was pregnant and it was cool to see how they wrote a storyline [about] how that involved Vincent's character Connor, which I'm quite sure wasn't in the original plan. She was getting a belly, [which] of course we hid as long as we could but then one day all of a sudden she's pregnant and how do you write that off? You've got to say, "Oh wow, there was this mystical pregnancy."
There were such things that they did as raise countertops, have her carry bags, they cut a hole in the bed so that her bum would go down in the hole to hide her stomach. I give her all the credit in the world, she worked until she was nine months and one week pregnant. I thought she was going to give birth on stage seven at Paramount.
She's a trooper and she hung in there with the best attitude in the world, gorgeous as always. Never would you know she was pregnant unless you looked at her belly.
It's just amazing what you can do. I had my head cut off.
