Wow… Didn’t not expect this to happen, but great news for the show and everyone involved!
You know you’re doing something right when you can shock Tommy.
LOL Oh my god yes. XD
Andie MacDowell—beautiful, that cracklin’ accent, and such a good, convincing actress I
want to rush right out and buy hair products….. Wow. Light-hearted drama? I guess
this means there are no friendly blood-sucking vampires with implanted evil cyborg parts?
Okay. Good luck, Andie!!!

Dasher is dashing.

Girl’s got a future.
Yes!! My favorite guilty pleasure! Dasher is adorable and hilarious. Macdowell-a stunner!
Im so glad Jane by Design got picked up for more episodes. The casting is perfect. Andie Macdowell & India are fabulous villains and this show is the perfect mix of Devil Wears Prada meets 13 Going on 30 with some Ugly Betty mixed in. Keep them coming!
Lovely!!!! I’m thrilled!
You have no idea how happy this makes me! YES!!!!!
Yes! I love Jane by Design, and I’m very happy that it was picked up for more eps.
I thought that the show was ending and I was so so sad! I literally love this show so much and I’m almost 100% Billy tells Jane he likes her although I feel like she won’t feel the same way although I want her too so bad! Overall super excited
Dasher is daring, courageous, and caring!
GREAT NEWS! Love abc family Monday and Tuesday night shows (and I’m not even a teenager)
