Jenna Elfman is guest starring on Tim Allen's ABC series "Shifting Gears" after previously focusing on dramatic roles, notably in "Fear the Walking Dead." As the owner of a dance studio, she reflects on her return to comedy, emphasizing the need for laughter in current times. Elfman shares her fondness for nostalgic '90s sitcoms, enjoying them with her sons. Despite initially doubting her comedic ability, she realized through positive audience reaction that she could indeed make people laugh, rekindling her love for multi-camera comedy.
"I was really interested in getting back into comedy. I needed to go away from it for a while. And then I was, like, I would love to do a multi-cam again but, oh my God, it's got to be done right, you know?"
"It's just a good laugh and I feel like we all need a good laugh, you know? I'm sitting watching comedies with my sons, like '90s comedies."
"You know, George, it's funny because I never thought I was funny or had any capacity for comedy at all. Not at all."
"And it wasn't even until then that I went, 'Oh, I guess the reaction to what I did on the show was very positive.' And I was like I guess I can do comedy."
