Jenna Elfman pregnant, but not 'Accidentally'
Jenna Elfman is pregnant in real life, which is handy for her new CBS show.The "Accidentally on Purpose" star confirmed that she's expecting her second child on CBS' Early Show Wednesday, less than a month after she said she'd "definitely" want to be a mother of two.
"I have a baby in my tummy -- but a real one, not just for my TV show," she revealed. "My character's pregnant the whole first season, so I said, 'It's a good time to have another baby, because we won't have to hide it.'"
On the CBS comedy, which premieres on Monday, Sept. 21, Elfman plays a woman who has a fling with younger man and "accidentally" falls pregnant. He becomes more than a one-night stand, however, when he decides to be part of her and their baby's life.
"By episode three if you look closely once it airs, you'll see ... 'Oh is she a little bloated? Did she have a big dinner?,'" Elfman joked.
Elfman and husband Bodhi already have a 2-year-old son, Story Elias.

I seriously doubt her show will even last the whole season. She is totally unlikeable, and the show sounds stupid. Won't be watching!
Agree...she's assuming her show last the whole season which it won't. I think she's a great actress, but this show and its storyline will not work. too bad
Jenna is the greatest... Have u seen her act, totally comical and entertaining. I just can not get enough of Jenna Elfman and I for one am glad to see her back where she belongs.
show looks bad, and don't like Elfman either. in fact, she kinda makes my skin crawl.
Jenna is being wasted on yet another terrible show.
i've watched the show (accidentally on purpose) since the beginning and it's actually really funny. Elfman is great and all the guys on the show are even better. hilarious !
How can you not like Jenna Elfman? She is a really good actress. And for the level of shows these days this show is pretty good.
I love the show Accidentally on Purpose. It's a great addition to CBS Monday.
Accidently on Purpose is one of the best comedies on tv right now. So all of you who thought the show would last and wasnt gonna be good. HA
LOVE JENNA. She's beautiful and very funny. I wish her the best with her new baby and the new show!
