United Kingdom, Aug. 12 -- Jamie Lee Curtis has clarified her comments after saying working on New Girl was "awful".

The 67-year-old star had a recurring role as Joan Day, the mother of Zooey Deschanel's Jess, on the hit comedy series, but she recently admitted she "hated" the experience".

Speaking at NBCUniversal's Summer Backlot Experience while promoting her upcoming sitcom Newlyweds, she said: "I did a single camera, which, I mean - great show, New Girl, very funny - it's a good show, but doing it is just like doing a movie.

"You know, you've got a camera crew, and nobody laughs. It's silent, and it's awful. For me, awful.

"Single-camera comedies, for me, not fun."

Jamie's comments sparked some backlash, and she has now responded...
