Getting used Quote by Kaley Cuoco
“I was really nervous at the beginning and I was sweating when I walked onto the set with them. It was also funny because, coming from a show like 8 Simple Rules, which was based in reality, suddenly I'm talking about demons and spells and words that don't come out very fluently for me. So it took some getting used to.”
