Alyssa heeft een interview gehad met "TV-guide". Ze spraken over haar rol in "My name is Earl", Baseball, haar TV-serie's en enz. Hier is een deel van het interview. 
TV Guide: Tell us about your character.
I play Billie, who starts out as the girlfriend of Michael Rapaport’s Frank, who is friends with Earl in prison. You sort of feel a connection between my character and Earl, but then they go their separate ways. Through a series of events and destiny, they bump into each other again, and her life [begins] running parallel to Earl’s.
TV Guide: Would you want to star in another TV series?
I think that anything that I choose to do now has to be an extension of who I am. If the right project comes along, I’d absolutely do it.
TV Guide: Is there anything else you are working on?
I have a film coming out [Nov. 30] called Pathology with [Heroes’] Milo Ventimiglia. And then I start production in November on a Lifetime movie that I’m also producing, called Wisegal. It’s based on a true story about a woman who is widowed with two children, and in order to make ends meet, she gets caught up in the mob and winds up being in a position of power.
TV Guide: What about your gig as an Internet playoff commentator for mlbcom?
I’ve had my baseball blog this entire season and have created this great baseball-fan community, but this is my first time doing commentary. I’m going into it as the voice of the fan. I’m obviously not a professional sports commentator — and I’m not going to try to be — so my angle is to be the crazy fanatic with great access.
TV Guide: Who are you rooting for to get into the World Series?
Now that my Dodgers are out, um, I would have to say the Cubs. I think if you’re a baseball fan and your team is out, you’ve got to root for the Cubs.
TV Guide: Becoming a cover girl for mags like Maxim and Stuff certainly seemed to give you more exposure.
If I didn’t feel confident in the human being that I am, it would probably mean more to me. But at this point, in my midthirties, I just feel blessed that people are interested. Ya know?
