From the stage to the screen, Katherine Moennig has the rampant enthusiasm and contagious smile that can knock you right off your feet.

TheWB: Are you anything like Jake?
Katherine Moennig: Yeah, I guess so, I think everything you play has something of yourself in it. I don't know if I'd have the courage to do what she did...

TheWB: Your character has a "dirty little secret", does it make your job harder?
KM: I learned that what makes it difficult is playing two exact opposites at the same time, but other than that its so much fun.

TheWB: You worked in theater for a while. Besides the obvious, what are the main differences between theater and Television?
KM: In television you can do a lot of takes, so if you don't get the moment right you can try again. In theater you get one shot, if you don't get it the first time that's it.

TheWB: How did you like working behind the scenes in the theater?
KM: It's a pain in the ass actually, its really hard work. Doing stuff behind the stage is the hard part, acting is the easy part. I have a lot of respect for everyone that works behind the scenes on the show.

TheWB: What's a normal day on the set like?
KM: Wake up at 5:30 or 6:00am, go to the set, get dressed and wait around for three hours for everything to get started, then it's a lot of hard work.

TheWB: Is it anything like the way you pictured it?
KM: Yeah, it actually is. I love working on film, I haven't done a lot and it's fascinating.

TheWB: Where do you want to go from here?
KM: I'd like to see how the show goes, and if goes well do another 13. Eventually I'd like it to lead to film work.

TheWB: Growing up, did your parents steer you towards the arts, or did you get there on your own?
KM: They didn't push me to anything but when I made that decision they were really supportive.

TheWB: What would you be doing if you weren't acting?
KM: Realistically, if I wasn't acting I'd probably just be finishing college. I'd probably be graduating from some state school I hated and not really know what I was going to do.

TheWB: What would you have majored in?
KM: I think I would have majored in Marine Biology or I'd want to study to go into the FBI.

TheWB: What is the one thing that you can't live without?
KM: My friends and family.
