"Edie Falco has expressed her belief that the frequent drug use in Nurse Jackie shouldn&amp;#039;t be considered funny. The four-time Emmy winner disclosed to CNN that she has been approached by fans who both laugh at and emulate her character&amp;#039;s prescription pill addiction.   &amp;quot;I [don&amp;#039;t] know how to respond [to them],&amp;quot; she admitted. &amp;quot;I don&amp;#039;t want anyone to think that the overall idea that she&amp;#039;s a drug addict is funny. It&amp;#039;s important to me that when all is said and done, that comes across.&amp;quot; Falco also opened up about her personal life, revealing that she is less of a workaholic these days. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m no longer where I was ten years ago where I was like, &amp;#039;I&amp;#039;ll take anything&amp;#039;. I have a life outside of work now - my kids, in particular - so I don&amp;#039;t want to take jobs just for the heck of it. It&amp;#039;s got to be really good,&amp;quot; she said. Nurse Jackie was renewed for a fifth season in May. &amp;gt; Nurse Jackie co-creators exit, won&amp;#039;t return for fifth season "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
