Honouring the husband and wife duo at the Casting Society of America's Artios Awards laste Thursday, Julianna said: " surprised Robert and Michelle tonight. They didn’t know I was going to be here. They think I’m here for them, but I’m unemployed come April, and I think you haven’t seen me in a while, at least not in person, so I thought I should show up"

Meanwhile, the actors and actresses of the award winning legal drama mentioned to Vulture.com that their contracts will come to an end after season 7 which is currently broadcasting in the United States.
