She received critical acclaim for that performance, and the first season was praised by most critics. Tim Goodman of The Hollywood Reporter in his review said “It’s not until you watch Enos play Sarah for a while that it sinks in—there hasn’t been a female American character like her probably ever.”

Early in her career, Enos appeared variously as a guest star on such television shows as Sex and the City and The Education of Max Bickford among others. She made her feature film debut with a minor part in the 2001 romantic comedy Someone Like You, but garnered wider attention for her role as Honey in the 2005 Broadway production of Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?.
