On February 22, 2000, Caitlin appeared on the CBS drama, Judging Amy in the episode called, "The Wee Hours." She played Grace Fray, a 14 year old gymnast who was not physically maturing as she should because she did gymnastics so much. Her father petitioned the court to give him custody of her so she could have a 'normal' life, but her mother wanted her to keep performing and be an 'extrordinary' person. Grace testifies and seems to spit out words straight from her coach's mouth. Judge Amy asks to speak to Grace's Russian gymnastics coach, who told her quitters are losers. He thought Grace had real potential but Amy saw that he was running her life and realized that Grace didn't really love gymnastics - she was just trying to please her mother and her coach. So she ruled that unless Grace switched coaches she would go live with her father. {Judging Amy pics and info courtesy Emma and childstarlets.com}
