Marti Noxon said "Everybody knows this was all an elaborate scheme to get myself on 'Watch What Happens Live!' Seriously, I can't thank everyone enough at Bravo and Universal Cable Productions for making Girlfriends' something special. I am confident that Lisa is going to be TV's next girl crush; she's certainly mine."

Edelstein will play self-help book writer Abby, who hides the fact that she's separated from her husband.

More than anything, this is a real passion project for Marti who is a big Bravo fan."
