Oralgh , you are FANTASTIC, and I love seeing you on GL, and especially as part of the Otalia story. You are definitely the voice of the people in this story, saying what we all want to say (i.e. MAN UP FRANK!).

Nice interview! One of the many things that makes the "Otalia" storyline so believably complex are the characters woven into the story. Orlagh Cassidy's character, Doris, has always been a villain you love to hate, but now, she is even more 3-dimensional, and although Doris has not lost her edge exactly, there is some kind of core of reasoning and a softness to her that can be appealed to. The scenes between Doris, Olivia, Natalia and Frank have been written and acted brilliantly! I hope to see more of Doris and soon.

Wow….how am I over a week late on this one?! Where have I been??? Great interview…(as always) and I love Orlagh Cassidy! She's one of the best things on GL, and that's quite an achievement these days, with such amazing actors all over the place. No one makes me laugh like Doris and I could quite happily watch the wedding scenes on repeat, just for her facial expressions and hilarious speech.

dunno how I managed to miss news of this interview, until now, but I am soooo glad I found it today :) I have been hoping to see some coverage for Orlagh/Doris in the press, and this interview was awesome! I love the Doris character, bitchiness and all, and I think her involvement in the Otalia storyline has been brilliantly written. I'm looking forward to seeing more of her in the coming weeks. I would love to see whether witnessing an 'out' Otalia might actually change Doris.

Thank you for the lovely interview. It was great to read. I love how Doris is being used in the Otalia story – she's very much the 'Greek Chorus' of the show – saying what the audience would love to be able to say.

I am sure Doris has a story of a love she has lost because of her fear to 'come out' A choice she regrets I am sure

Love, love, love Orlagh Cassidy! I'm so glad this interview notice popped into my Twitter feed! Doris is simply hilarious, and I look forward to more interaction between her and her … uhm … "constituents" in the future! Her Otalia-centric role means I adore her even more! If she and Alan were to hook up again, Springfield would surely never be the same! (I'm glad she wasn't wearing a hat in that snazzy photo … would have been a shame being unable to recognize her.) Keep the Light shining!

Hi Tiffany….thanks for getting the interview with Orlagh…I am a big Doris fan and knowing now that she has Irish roots, it's quite understandable :-) And it is true, the writers do give her some brilliant lines and she carries them off perfectly. She was definitely the right choice when it came to having someone play the closeted lesbian. Love the picture of her too. It's made my day, thank you :-)

Great article on OC! It's nice to see her opinion of Doris and what's to come…
I love the way GL has chosen to interweave Doris' character with Otalia… it really adds a fantastic element to the story.
Not to mention OC's comedic timing is FABULOUS!!!
Thanks again Tiff!
