Jenna Elfman returns to sitcom world in 'Imaginary Mary'
Jenna Elfman and Stephen Schneider star in ABC's "Imaginary Mary."

LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- It was a fuzzy little imaginary friend that drew actress Jenna Elfman back into the sitcom world.

Elfman, best known for her role on "Dharma & Greg," had told her agents she didn't want to do a network primetime comedy this year. But then she heard about "Imaginary Mary" and signed right up.

The ABC show features Elfman as a 30-something career woman having a bit of a crisis in her personal life. That's when her childhood imaginary friend Mary - voiced by Rachel Dratch - reappears in her life.
