Hey Gasmii, I had the chance to talk to Hart Bochner from USA's The Starter Wife a few weeks ago and he was great. Hart plays Zach, Molly's (Debra Messing) new love interest on the show.

If you haven't had the chance to check out The Starter Wife, it's on every Friday at 10PM ET/PT on USA.

Here's the interview:
Nads: Hey Hart! Can you tell me a little bit about your character on The Starter Wife?

Hart: Of course! He's a very successful screenwriter and he's a very successful guy who got started out as a journalist and won a Pulitzer in his late 20's and then became an overnight success in Hollywood. The first screenplay that he wrote was turned into a film and he got nominated for an Oscar. Not that it's been downhill from that point on, but he sort of has reached a point in his career now where he's somewhat blocked creatively and he's in the process of writing a novel. By virtue of the fact that he's having trouble freeing his creative juices, he decides that he's going to have a writers' workshop, which I think he does as a way of not only giving back, but as a way of looking for a way to free his creative flow.

So he has about a half a dozen published authors come to his place once a week where they discuss process and start working on various projects that they're writing. One of the characters is Debra Messing's character who is a purported published author. It turns out she's written a children's pop-up book so she doesn't carry the legitimacy of the other writers in the workshop, but she very quickly discovers her own voice by virtue of revealing this journal that she's been writing. It's quirky and idiosyncratic, and under my guidance she writes a screenplay, which gains a certain amount of momentum. And by virtue of what she reveals in herself through her writing, my character, Zach, becomes intrigued by her. We're sort of kindred spirits in the fact that we've come out very difficult marriages. We'd been married to high powered people in the industry. My wife is, while I don't want to call her, my ex-wife, a shrew, she's a ballsy woman who is a powerful agent. She runs an agency. That's then hard on my psyche by virtue of the fact that we have a seven-year-old daughter and I'm looking for someone who is supportive of me and she's anything but.

Debra's character, Molly, is coming out of a marriage where she was with a man who wasn't particularly there for her. They also have a seven-year-old daughter. So the two of us are somewhat wounded and gun shy about getting back into real relationships and yet we sort of take baby steps towards one another and we find ourselves, as the show evolves, becoming more and more involved.
