Ali Larter, known for her role on the Paramount+ series Landman, began her television career with a brief appearance on the 1990s sitcom Suddenly Susan.
Larter played Maddie, a delivery woman, in the 1997 episode titled The Ways and the Means. The part lasted less than a minute and featured no scenes with Brooke Shields, who starred as magazine columnist Susan Keane. Larter interacted instead with supporting characters played by David Strickland and Néstor Carbonell in a story centered on accents and flirtation.
