Lisa Kudrow just earned the praise of Abbi Jacobson.
The No Good Deed actress, who portrays the character, Leslie Fisher recalls being star struck by Kudrow, who played Lydia Morgan in the dark Netflix dramedy.
In an exclusive conversation with PEOPLE, she told the outlet, “I mean, getting to do the scene with Lisa, just us sort of later in the season, was pretty much a dream come true.”
In the series, Jacobson is one of the potential buyers of a Spanish-styled villa, marketed as a person’s dream residence, to be bought from Kudrow’s character, Lydia and her on-screen husband, Paul, portrayed by Ray Romano.
"It goes from a pretty comedic moment into a very sort of intense moment for her character especially,” she says of working with the Friends star.
Jacobson continued, “And to watch someone who I'm in such awe of as a performer do that in front of me and get to be a part of it, that was really special.”
Additionally, she also mentioned working with Poppy Liu on the show, saying, “It was pretty incredible. And I mean, Poppy, I'm in scenes with Poppy for the most part, which was so fun. It felt very organic, that dynamic between us.”
“But everyone is incredible,” the comedian said, praising all her co-stars, adding, “The table reads were just getting to all be together and read it all out loud was pretty . . . I will remember those moments.”
