If you look at any sitcom that you watch, if it takes place in, say, a small town in Massachusetts, and it's about the dynamics of the people in that town, the showrunner probably grew up in a town like that, witnessed things, and created content.

The greatest thing about siblings is you constantly have someone putting you in check; there's no room to get delusional about yourself.

Great Yourself Yours

In L.A., you see a lot of women who get into these trends for inner happiness while putting most of their energy into looking younger. It's Botox on Tuesday, laser on Wednesday, some weird juice cleanse having nothing to do with health and everything to do with losing weight the next day.

I love animals. I just don't want to have a pet. That's OK, right? I would take a dog over a cat, at least to interact with you. I feel like cats just stare you down all the time. Cats have, like, bad attitudes.

If I'm awake at 2 A.M., I'm either suffering from anxiety or doing something I will regret tomorrow.

Everyone's trying to get a reality show, and we're just trying to avoid accidentally being on a reality show.

We're living in a time when the most famous people in the world have no specific skill set and are known for living their lives in front of the world. How strange is that? The appeal makes sense to me - it's like 'The Truman Show,' getting a chance to peak into someone's bedroom or see the way someone fights with their husband.

I have no interest in feeling like a trophy. Money itself has never been attractive to me; instead, I prefer ambition and integrity.

When I did stand-up at U.C.B., and I had a blog for a couple of years that started my writing career, 'Totally Confident and Completely Insecure,' it was the same kind of self-deprecating humor and stories about being out in L.A. and being treated like a loser at a hair salon because you are not famous.

With 'Barely Famous', we've tapped into and created something really exciting that we'll always be proud of going forward.

I've never dated anywhere else, so I only know L.A. dating, and I wouldn't wish it upon my worst enemy. I've pulled back and taken the pressure off of myself to figure it out, because there's so much pressure about status that dating has become this game where you pull out all your tricks.

Sunday brunch at Soho House. The views of L.A. are spectacular.

Your sister knows everything to say to piss you off. But sisters tend to be each other's biggest champion and also their hardest critics.

It was not even that long ago when my acting career was in the gutter. I was just thinking that I didn't want to live a life still going on auditions and not getting work. I wasn't inspired or anything at the time, and it sucked.

I find so much new music I didn't know about on my Sonos.

You don't get to be in the squad unless you're six feet tall, a supermodel, perfect, famous, and hot. That's like hand selecting perfection, putting it into a group of girls, and saying, 'Look how amazing we are.'

The Bachelor'... and 'The Bachelorette'... and 'Bachelor in Paradise'... and the 'After the Final Rose ceremony'. I love a competition dating show.

The truth is that the celebrities that transitioned into being business moguls or launching a brand have to be very smart, or at least be advised by very smart people.

People want to see someone who looks like they might have this enviable life, but in turn, they are a mess and their life is a mess.

Life Who Want

There are so many shows that are 'white,' and we wanted to talk about how two really delusional, cliche white girls handle racial issues.

Erin Foster

White Wanted Want

When we go out with friends for a dinner or something and we have friends that aren't there, for no reason other than they weren't invited because we only had room for a certain amount of people, we just don't post a picture because we don't want anyone to feel left out. What's the point?

Erin Foster

Wit Were Want

No one wants everyone to know how sick they are and everyone to see how much they are struggling. And when that seems to be the focus, of making sure everyone sees how sick you are, that's just confusing to someone that is trying to be supportive.

Erin Foster

I don't even know who I am. All I know is that I am the sibling, daughter, sister, the friend of somebody, and I need to know who I am outside of that.

Erin Foster

Anyone who is on the verge of kind of famous but not really relevant is kind of fun to play with.

Erin Foster

When you have a big family, certainly with strong personalities, you feel like you have to fall into a role, and I didn't want to be the little sister or the daughter, because that's who you become as an adult.

Erin Foster

We have really good parents, and even though they broke up when we were little, we were still raised by two people who had really good ethics. They were never going to let us turn into Paris Hilton. I think that it wasn't really an option to become spoiled brats.

Erin Foster

I have run from a lot of relationships in favor of being alone. And I tend to find men who use their money and status as a dating tool to be unattractive.

Erin Foster

I think, in anyone's career, you have to map out some sort of strategy of steps that take you closer to the career you want.

Erin Foster

Chris Martin is my best friend.

Erin Foster

We didn't have parents who let us get away with anything. We grew up here with privilege, and we never got a D.U.I., we never went to rehab, we never got pregnant.

What's important in any working relationship or working with someone in your family is you have to start with a clean slate.

I could not write on 'Downton Abbey'.

Relationships are temporary, and everyone needs to understand that.

Even Instagram has become a way to show off your girl group and make other girls feel left out.

Erin Foster

When you watch women who are a great mom, a great wife, and a great CEO, like, it's very inspiring. Like, being friends with Jessica Alba makes you work harder.

Erin Foster

I imagine when you're making a reality show with a whole crew, it's bound to get complicated.

Erin Foster

Puppies and kittens are both great. Cats and dogs are not for me.

Erin Foster

We don't mess with squads. Our friend group is not, like, a strategic thing. There's no strategy to our friendships. There's no strategy to the circle of girls. Everyone's, like, bound together for different things.

Erin Foster

When I was in my twenties, I was a self-conscious, out-of-work actress. Then I decided to be a writer and got hired on an NBC show that got canceled after one year. I was heavily discouraged by someone I worked for who told me I wasn't good.

Erin Foster

The idea of me writing something that I'd get to be in as well was not what I saw coming. I do think that life works that way. When you kind of let go of something and accept that it hasn't worked, it takes all the pressure off, and then you end up getting it.

Erin Foster

Our dad was always like, 'Look, if you're musical, if you live and breathe music and want to play an instrument, that's not something that's on me to put on you. If you're passionate, you will come to my studio every day after school and watch me work because you can't live without it.

Erin Foster

What's happening with feminism in general is I think that, as a woman, you're not limited to being one thing or the other. You can be feminine and sexy and beautiful and hot and funny.

Erin Foster

Obviously, it's the Lucille Balls of the world who helped make humor accessible to women and in a voice that women related to. I just wanted to continue that.

Erin Foster

Fashion is really funny because it's something that should be subjective, but there are clear things that are chic or not chic. There are all these rules, but if the right person breaks a rule, then it becomes a trend.

Erin Foster

I love a dinner, but I love a night in.

Erin Foster

I'm kind of over people using the word 'bae'. Let's get rid of that.

Erin Foster

There were a lot of assumptions that we were raised a certain way. Our dad was always really clear with us that he is rich and we are not: 'If you want to be rich, you should go do what I did, which is work really hard.'

Erin Foster

Our parents are beyond proud that we never sold out once and created something together.

Erin Foster

I don't think we are changing the world here, but we might be influencing a perspective.

Erin Foster

Your instinct when someone is busy is to give them the least amount of work so that they can do it.

Erin Foster

You take from things that you read about in the news or things you hear about or things that happen to you, and you collectively sit in a room with everyone, and everyone decides what the funniest stories are that you've heard or thought of.
