Jessica Biel did not imagine “The Sinner” would be as successful as it has been. “Not because I didn’t think that we were doing something interesting,” the actress told Cheddar in an interview Monday. “Honestly I was surprised people waited a week to see [each episode].” Biel stars in and produces the psychological thriller series on USA Network, which tells the story of a mother who commits an act of violence in broad daylight.
