    Although I'm 63, I'm a new fan, having just become acquainted with Mary's work on "In Plain Sight." I loved her and wish her well in her new show. I will definitely be watching! She could be my daughter.

    "In Plain Sight" was so good, I am really sorry to see it go. I'm sure the ABC show will be more of the same old crap. It's unfortunate.

    I really liked In Plain Sight. Sorry to see it end. Maybe she needed another job because something else has ended in her life,like a marriage????

    Hunh. What ever happened to leaving "In Plain Sight" to spend time with her three kids?

    Whatever. Hope she's lost that baby weight!
