Sarah Michelle Gellar has faced a lot of foes on-screen, but it turns out one thing can render her job a little more difficult: cats.
And, unfortunately for her, tonight’s episode of THE CRAZY ONE has Gellar’s character, Sydney, interacting heavily with a cat.
“They wrote an entire episode — and we hadn’t gotten to script yet — and the new director came down [to talk to us],” Gellar recalled during a recent TCA panel for the show. “It’s kind of awkward [at first], you know, because they’re coming into this family. And he says, ‘By the way, you’re not allergic to cats, are you?’ And I was, like, ‘Ha, ha, I’m deathly allergic to cats.’ And he looks at me, and he’s like, ‘No, really.’ And I’m, like, ‘No. You’re joking, right?”’ And he’s, like, ‘No, you’re joking.’ And then we realize that they’d all written this whole episode, and we’re all allergic to cats.”
