Summary

Jennifer Elise Cox didn't just play Jan Brady in The Brady Bunch Movie -- she became her. From landing the role on her very first film audition to sharing a wig with RuPaul, Jennifer brings the same infectious energy and razor-sharp comedic timing to this conversation that made her an icon. She talks about being directed by Betty Thomas, keeping a straight face across from Christine Taylor, guest starring on Will and Grace with a retainer in her mouth, and improvising alongside Lisa Kudrow on Web Therapy.
