Portraying Jordan McDeere on the television series
Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip allows Peet to rekindle her on-screen chemistry with
Matthew Perry, with whom she previously worked with in films like
The Whole Nine Yards and
The Whole Ten Yards. Her role on the drama-comedy enables her to play the role of a president of a fictional network. A power woman on and off screen, she brings life to the plot, which is well received by the viewers.
