Melissa Rauch and her husband Winston were always going to work as producers on Night Court from the beginning. According to her, this would be the extent of her involvement on the show, with someone else taking on the lead role. As a matter of fact, it was John Larroquette who first asked her about trying to step into the character, but she was completely hesitant.
It wasn’t until she started reading different iterations of the script as it was being developed that she fell in love with the project. “I had every intention of just producing Night Court,” Rauch said in an interview with Glamour Magazine. “I didn’t think I wanted to be on camera in another sitcom right away, as much as I love doing them.”
“[But] when John Larroquette signed on,” she continued, “he asked if I would play Abby and I said that wasn’t in the cards. But as the script came together, I really started to fall in love with the idea and kept thinking about how bummed I was going to feel being on set watching someone else get to do these great scenes with the legend that is John Larroquette.”
Social media sure loves its share of celebrity throwbacks, and Kaley Cuoco is no exception.
When an old photo of her walking on a red carpet resurfaced on Instagram, fans just couldn’t get enough of how stunning she looked. Back in March 2018, The Big Bang Theory star and now ex-husband Karl Cook attended the 6th annual Hilarity For Charity event in Los Angeles.
Kaley’s flair for fashion was definitely evident that night, as she wore a black see-through dress with a simple black heel. To pull the entire look together, the Flight Attendant actress rocked wavy blond locks, a slightly bold eye and a nude lip.
When a press photo from the night then came up on Instagram last year, fans quickly expressed their thoughts about how beautiful she looked. ‘Absolutely stunning 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️,’ wrote one fan. ‘You look gorgeous stunning wearing anything 👍🌹😘😁,’ commented another. And a different follower just used fire emojis to share his thoughts: ‘🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥.’
We’re sure you’ll agree she looks fit AF, and when it comes to how she trains and eats, Cuoco knows what she’s doing. Even after recovering from shoulder surgery in 2018 she was soon back at the gym doing one-arm exercises. (And FYI, these workouts included giant sleds, so let’s just say they were pretty damn tough.)
She’s a health warrior, where living a life filled with weights, yoga, and nutritious food is what keeps her balanced and sane and able to kick serious butt on the big screen. And she’s not one to shy away from sharing her wellness tips.
Tip one: If you only do one workout, it’ll become stale, Cuoco says. Instead, add variety. In an interview with WH US, she said ‘If I’m doing yoga, we’re doing it every day this week….Then I’m like, “Oh my god, I have to switch.” Then I’m going crazy on SoulCycle….”Okay, I have to switch.”‘
On the whole, she swears by her yoga practice, which is five times a week. ‘Doing yoga five times a week has transformed my body. I love being toned and having muscle; it’s so sexy and beautiful. And I owe it 100 percent to yoga,’ she told Shape.
And another piece of advice: ‘Sit in the front row in front of the mirror [during a workout] so you can stare at your fine-ass self as you sweat, it forces you to be accountable and not slack,’ Kaley said to SELF.
Get it, Cuoco.
