liza lapira in don't trust the b- in apartment 23



If there's any reason to watch the new ABC sitcom Don't Trust the B- in Apartment 23 -- aside from James Van Der Beek playing a creepy version of himself -- it has to be supporting player Liza Lapira as Robin, the obsessive neighbor down the hall who utters the show's titular admonition.

I've only seen the pilot episode, but her few scenes totally stole it. This Los Angeles Times review singles her out, saying she needs to get her own show. Here's a little more about her character, according to the ABC website:
Robin is an obsessive old roommate of Chloe who lives just down the hall of Apartment 23. Robin spends her days as an emergency room nurse and her nights striving to make her way back in to Chloe’s life. Random fact: Robin was also a credited producer on "The Blair Witch Project."
You might remember Liza from the short lived sitcom Traffic Light or as Agent Trinh in Justin Lin's Fast & Furious. I hope they expand her role on Don't Trust the B... In the meantime, if you missed the premiere, you can watch it here.
