WEBVTT - Give Me Your Questions... 

0:00:01.600 --> 0:00:04.880
<v Speaker 1>Hi, I'm Kristin Davis, and I want to know are

0:00:04.880 --> 0:00:10.280
<v Speaker 1>you a Charlotte? Hi? Everybody, We're going to do another

0:00:10.560 --> 0:00:14.560
<v Speaker 1>episode of Give Me Your Question, So here we go.

0:00:15.080 --> 0:00:17.120
<v Speaker 1>The first thing that I wanted to talk about was,

0:00:18.520 --> 0:00:20.840
<v Speaker 1>this is just kind of a bizarre thing that has

0:00:20.960 --> 0:00:24.720
<v Speaker 1>been happening since we started this podcast. So in my mind,

0:00:25.040 --> 0:00:27.680
<v Speaker 1>I was like, yes, I'd love to rewatch Sex and

0:00:27.720 --> 0:00:30.400
<v Speaker 1>the City because I haven't ever rewatched it, right, And

0:00:30.600 --> 0:00:33.080
<v Speaker 1>that'll be super interesting because it was a long, long

0:00:33.120 --> 0:00:36.840
<v Speaker 1>time ago, almost thirty years ago, and I really had

0:00:36.840 --> 0:00:39.640
<v Speaker 1>no idea that people were going to be paying so

0:00:39.800 --> 0:00:42.639
<v Speaker 1>much attention to what I said. So there's been these

0:00:42.720 --> 0:00:46.200
<v Speaker 1>crazy headlines and my mother has called me and asked

0:00:46.200 --> 0:00:49.320
<v Speaker 1>me about them because her friends talked to her about them,

0:00:49.360 --> 0:00:51.280
<v Speaker 1>and it's just been a little bit overwhelming, I have

0:00:51.360 --> 0:00:53.239
<v Speaker 1>to say. And I just thought, you know what this is,

0:00:53.280 --> 0:00:55.400
<v Speaker 1>like thirty years ago, I did not think anybody was

0:00:55.440 --> 0:00:58.480
<v Speaker 1>going to care. I mean, I thought the fans would care,

0:00:59.080 --> 0:01:02.080
<v Speaker 1>and you guys do care, thank goodness. And I feel

0:01:02.080 --> 0:01:04.800
<v Speaker 1>like you guys know the truth of what I'm saying.

0:01:05.640 --> 0:01:08.080
<v Speaker 1>But sometimes I see these headlines and I do get

0:01:08.120 --> 0:01:11.480
<v Speaker 1>a little concerned about people who maybe see the headlines

0:01:11.640 --> 0:01:14.720
<v Speaker 1>but don't necessarily listen to the podcast, that they might

0:01:14.760 --> 0:01:17.720
<v Speaker 1>not have the right understanding of what I was saying.

0:01:18.120 --> 0:01:20.480
<v Speaker 1>So just some of the weird ones, you know what

0:01:20.640 --> 0:01:25.000
<v Speaker 1>I said, I said the cult like rules. I don't

0:01:25.040 --> 0:01:27.280
<v Speaker 1>know that I said rules, but I definitely said the

0:01:27.280 --> 0:01:29.319
<v Speaker 1>word cult. And of course that, of course is a

0:01:29.360 --> 0:01:32.759
<v Speaker 1>headline now that the producers forced us to do things.

0:01:32.880 --> 0:01:35.280
<v Speaker 1>This is so not the case, you guys, Oh my gosh.

0:01:35.640 --> 0:01:39.120
<v Speaker 1>This was that pat Field have a very strong vision

0:01:39.240 --> 0:01:41.840
<v Speaker 1>and that's what we love about pat Field, and that's

0:01:41.880 --> 0:01:48.120
<v Speaker 1>why we hired pat Field. And my fashion sense was like, uh, nonexistent, right,

0:01:48.200 --> 0:01:50.880
<v Speaker 1>So I was just really happy to be told what

0:01:51.080 --> 0:01:54.360
<v Speaker 1>was cool and what was in It wasn't rules. The

0:01:54.440 --> 0:01:57.160
<v Speaker 1>producers didn't care one way or the other. I mean,

0:01:57.320 --> 0:01:59.040
<v Speaker 1>they cared that the show looked great, but I mean

0:01:59.120 --> 0:02:02.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't think they cared about the specifics of you know,

0:02:02.880 --> 0:02:04.640
<v Speaker 1>how we made it look great or whatever. They were

0:02:04.640 --> 0:02:07.720
<v Speaker 1>not involved, so there was no producers making us do

0:02:07.920 --> 0:02:12.720
<v Speaker 1>any rules or whatever. Anyway. That's one. Then the other

0:02:12.880 --> 0:02:16.560
<v Speaker 1>is you know, the whole you know, horrible mistake I

0:02:16.639 --> 0:02:19.280
<v Speaker 1>made about saying the word forced when I was laughing

0:02:19.680 --> 0:02:22.239
<v Speaker 1>about Michael Patrick and me having to flash my boob

0:02:23.040 --> 0:02:29.160
<v Speaker 1>in the year two thousand, so I laugh. Now, I

0:02:29.200 --> 0:02:31.440
<v Speaker 1>don't ever want one of my good friends to get

0:02:31.480 --> 0:02:34.040
<v Speaker 1>hurt because of something stupid that I said. And that's

0:02:34.040 --> 0:02:36.560
<v Speaker 1>what I feel like happened because I said a word

0:02:36.600 --> 0:02:38.680
<v Speaker 1>that they could take out of context, and they did,

0:02:38.919 --> 0:02:42.280
<v Speaker 1>and you guys on the social media really cheered me up.

0:02:42.280 --> 0:02:44.519
<v Speaker 1>But once I went on the Today Show because you

0:02:44.600 --> 0:02:48.000
<v Speaker 1>were like took Kristin out of context, and I really

0:02:48.080 --> 0:02:50.320
<v Speaker 1>appreciate that. And I don't know if you're aware, but

0:02:50.360 --> 0:02:53.000
<v Speaker 1>sometimes when you look at comments, it can be dark,

0:02:53.240 --> 0:02:56.000
<v Speaker 1>and sometimes it can really make you feel so much better.

0:02:56.040 --> 0:02:57.440
<v Speaker 1>And that's what you guys do for me on my

0:02:57.480 --> 0:03:01.480
<v Speaker 1>Instagram page and on the podcast Instagram page, and think

0:03:01.520 --> 0:03:04.400
<v Speaker 1>you keep it coming because sometimes I really really need it.

0:03:04.880 --> 0:03:07.360
<v Speaker 1>And then also people still want to talk about this

0:03:07.400 --> 0:03:11.680
<v Speaker 1>poor actor that I lend money to, and again I

0:03:11.760 --> 0:03:13.920
<v Speaker 1>really really just wanted to say, don't lend money to

0:03:13.960 --> 0:03:16.639
<v Speaker 1>people that you're involved with. That was my only point,

0:03:16.720 --> 0:03:18.799
<v Speaker 1>Like it just changes the dynamic. It makes it kind

0:03:18.800 --> 0:03:21.040
<v Speaker 1>of weird, or it has the potential at least to

0:03:21.040 --> 0:03:23.320
<v Speaker 1>make it kind of weird, and I never will say

0:03:23.320 --> 0:03:27.040
<v Speaker 1>this person's name, and I feel really badly that I

0:03:27.120 --> 0:03:31.399
<v Speaker 1>even opened that box up. So those are the ones

0:03:31.440 --> 0:03:34.720
<v Speaker 1>that come to mind. But honestly, just in general, the

0:03:34.760 --> 0:03:38.680
<v Speaker 1>whole idea that people are like, uh, creating these headlines

0:03:38.800 --> 0:03:41.160
<v Speaker 1>is still I'm just trying to get my mind around

0:03:41.160 --> 0:03:42.680
<v Speaker 1>it because I just thought we could just talk freely,

0:03:42.760 --> 0:03:45.240
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean. And I do feel with

0:03:45.320 --> 0:03:47.800
<v Speaker 1>you guys that are listening that I am just talking freely,

0:03:48.120 --> 0:03:50.000
<v Speaker 1>and I'm really trying to keep that going. I just

0:03:50.040 --> 0:03:53.400
<v Speaker 1>don't want any of my friends to get hurt, you know. Okay,

0:03:53.400 --> 0:03:55.680
<v Speaker 1>So that's the end of that. Now we have some

0:03:55.720 --> 0:03:59.200
<v Speaker 1>other questions from people on our I think from our

0:03:59.200 --> 0:04:00.320
<v Speaker 1>instagram is that right?

0:04:00.400 --> 0:04:03.680
<v Speaker 2>Easton is here, Hi, Christin, this is so fun. Thank

0:04:03.680 --> 0:04:06.720
<v Speaker 2>you for having me back, Thanks for coming back. Yeah,

0:04:06.720 --> 0:04:10.600
<v Speaker 2>these coming from Instagram Carrier Pigeon. People are just being

0:04:10.600 --> 0:04:11.559
<v Speaker 2>in on the door.

0:04:11.320 --> 0:04:14.280
<v Speaker 1>Yelling say, I'm glad you were there to listen to

0:04:14.320 --> 0:04:14.960
<v Speaker 1>what the head I.

0:04:15.240 --> 0:04:20.520
<v Speaker 2>Wrote everything down on my stenopad. So we're so excited

0:04:20.720 --> 0:04:23.159
<v Speaker 2>for season three even just like that, I am part

0:04:23.200 --> 0:04:24.920
<v Speaker 2>of the horde that is so excited.

0:04:24.520 --> 0:04:26.120
<v Speaker 1>About the show's nice.

0:04:26.320 --> 0:04:28.440
<v Speaker 2>So a lot of these questions are about and just

0:04:28.520 --> 0:04:32.400
<v Speaker 2>like that, this person says, seeing the trailer got me

0:04:32.480 --> 0:04:34.880
<v Speaker 2>so excited for and just like that, we see you

0:04:34.920 --> 0:04:38.080
<v Speaker 2>say owed to Aiden's postcard to carry in the trailer.

0:04:38.440 --> 0:04:41.960
<v Speaker 2>Do you support Aiden's five year rule and even Carrie

0:04:42.080 --> 0:04:43.400
<v Speaker 2>for waiting for him?

0:04:43.520 --> 0:04:46.240
<v Speaker 1>I know, isn't that a funny little thing? Yeah, it's funny.

0:04:47.000 --> 0:04:51.560
<v Speaker 1>I do not support that, me, Kristen, but Charlotte probably

0:04:51.600 --> 0:04:54.960
<v Speaker 1>does because you know, for Charlotte, she's just always optimistic.

0:04:55.640 --> 0:04:58.279
<v Speaker 1>And I think, you know, when you've had this long

0:04:58.520 --> 0:05:02.640
<v Speaker 1>history which Aiden and Carrie have had, and obviously Charlotte

0:05:02.680 --> 0:05:06.479
<v Speaker 1>believes in love, and Charlotte was pro Big as we know,

0:05:07.200 --> 0:05:11.520
<v Speaker 1>but Big is not here anymore, sadly, and that was

0:05:11.560 --> 0:05:14.760
<v Speaker 1>obviously really hard for Charlotte also to watch Carrie go through.

0:05:15.120 --> 0:05:18.200
<v Speaker 1>So I think that Charlotte would want Carrie to have love,

0:05:18.440 --> 0:05:20.919
<v Speaker 1>and if Carrie tells her that that's what Aiden, I

0:05:20.960 --> 0:05:22.960
<v Speaker 1>think Charlotte is going to support that because that's the

0:05:23.040 --> 0:05:25.760
<v Speaker 1>kind of friend that Charlotte is, and I support Charlotte

0:05:25.760 --> 0:05:29.920
<v Speaker 1>being that kind of friend. Me personally, I feel like

0:05:30.000 --> 0:05:34.760
<v Speaker 1>it's kind of complicated and I'm not sure, So let

0:05:34.800 --> 0:05:39.160
<v Speaker 1>me just say, let me just say that I really

0:05:39.200 --> 0:05:41.920
<v Speaker 1>love this season and I hope that everybody else does.

0:05:42.200 --> 0:05:46.440
<v Speaker 1>And it's super interesting writing Like what they wrote I

0:05:46.480 --> 0:05:51.200
<v Speaker 1>think is very good. I really really looked forward every

0:05:51.240 --> 0:05:55.960
<v Speaker 1>week to seeing what they wrote and watching Sarah Jessica

0:05:56.120 --> 0:05:58.760
<v Speaker 1>at the read throughs, and I can't wait to see

0:05:58.760 --> 0:06:01.560
<v Speaker 1>the finished product. I haven't seen anything yet. A little

0:06:01.560 --> 0:06:04.239
<v Speaker 1>in the trailer interesting, yeah, I mean I've seen tiny

0:06:04.279 --> 0:06:06.200
<v Speaker 1>bits and pieces when I had to go do adr,

0:06:06.279 --> 0:06:07.719
<v Speaker 1>which is like, you know, the.

0:06:07.839 --> 0:06:09.600
<v Speaker 2>National Dialogue recording, thank you so much.

0:06:09.640 --> 0:06:14.320
<v Speaker 1>Of course she knows that was fast man, you're on it.

0:06:14.560 --> 0:06:17.159
<v Speaker 1>We also call it looping, right, yes, so when I

0:06:17.160 --> 0:06:18.680
<v Speaker 1>had to go do that, I've seen tiny bits and

0:06:18.680 --> 0:06:22.279
<v Speaker 1>pieces like but the whole trailer was more than I

0:06:22.320 --> 0:06:25.440
<v Speaker 1>have seen. So I also was just like, what, I've

0:06:25.480 --> 0:06:27.680
<v Speaker 1>got to watch this again. So that was exciting to

0:06:27.720 --> 0:06:29.680
<v Speaker 1>get to see other people watching it as well and

0:06:29.680 --> 0:06:32.200
<v Speaker 1>obviously weighing in with all of their thoughts and opinions,

0:06:32.240 --> 0:06:35.080
<v Speaker 1>and some of them are very strong. But we love

0:06:35.160 --> 0:06:37.880
<v Speaker 1>that also, like I mean, no offense, but we're not

0:06:37.920 --> 0:06:39.760
<v Speaker 1>twenty right, do you know what I mean? It's like,

0:06:39.839 --> 0:06:42.920
<v Speaker 1>why like five years.

0:06:42.440 --> 0:06:44.480
<v Speaker 2>It's a long time, very long time.

0:06:44.400 --> 0:06:46.760
<v Speaker 1>Very long time to wait. So I agree, but I

0:06:46.760 --> 0:06:49.080
<v Speaker 1>also feel like it's very hard to be you know,

0:06:49.080 --> 0:06:51.960
<v Speaker 1>you're never really in someone's relationship, right, you don't really know.

0:06:52.560 --> 0:06:55.600
<v Speaker 1>And I also do feel like Carrie really believes in love.

0:06:56.480 --> 0:06:57.160
<v Speaker 2>She does.

0:06:58.520 --> 0:07:02.400
<v Speaker 1>Eass he's worn out, you guys, He's like, oh god,

0:07:02.440 --> 0:07:03.719
<v Speaker 1>she does it? Anyway, go ahead.

0:07:04.120 --> 0:07:06.880
<v Speaker 2>This question comes from me. I'm putting it to the

0:07:06.920 --> 0:07:11.800
<v Speaker 2>top of the pile. So I really enjoyed Carrie's podcast

0:07:11.960 --> 0:07:16.560
<v Speaker 2>subplot as someone in the business. That was something I

0:07:16.600 --> 0:07:17.440
<v Speaker 2>loved in season one.

0:07:17.600 --> 0:07:19.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm glad you loved it. Wasn't that a nice studio.

0:07:19.840 --> 0:07:23.040
<v Speaker 2>It was a great studio. They had real microphones, there

0:07:23.640 --> 0:07:26.640
<v Speaker 2>was a for real set. Yeah, it was awesome. So,

0:07:27.680 --> 0:07:31.440
<v Speaker 2>you know, spoiler alert, the podcast goes away, Carrie starts

0:07:31.440 --> 0:07:34.000
<v Speaker 2>her own at the end of season two or something.

0:07:34.240 --> 0:07:35.040
<v Speaker 1>It seemed to last.

0:07:35.320 --> 0:07:38.760
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Yeah, I was curious. I don't know what the

0:07:38.800 --> 0:07:41.760
<v Speaker 2>timeline is in terms of you filming if you had

0:07:41.760 --> 0:07:43.240
<v Speaker 2>started your podcast yet.

0:07:43.440 --> 0:07:47.120
<v Speaker 1>No, okay, I hadn't. We were working when the idea

0:07:47.200 --> 0:07:52.120
<v Speaker 1>came to me, and I was really excited and also nervous,

0:07:52.200 --> 0:07:57.600
<v Speaker 1>and I mean, I might add rightly, so no, that

0:07:57.640 --> 0:08:01.400
<v Speaker 1>we're in it but I was very much feeling like

0:08:01.440 --> 0:08:03.360
<v Speaker 1>I needed to go check in with Michael Patrick and

0:08:03.360 --> 0:08:06.520
<v Speaker 1>Sir Jessica about it. So I talked to everyone on

0:08:06.560 --> 0:08:09.000
<v Speaker 1>the phone. I had a really great talk with Amy Sugarman,

0:08:09.160 --> 0:08:12.840
<v Speaker 1>our executive producer, and she's a super fan and really

0:08:13.760 --> 0:08:17.200
<v Speaker 1>blew me off my feet, you know. But then I thought,

0:08:17.320 --> 0:08:20.400
<v Speaker 1>I've really got to make sure that everybody feels good

0:08:20.400 --> 0:08:22.960
<v Speaker 1>about this, because I only want to do it if

0:08:23.000 --> 0:08:27.000
<v Speaker 1>everyone feels good about this. So I think I which

0:08:27.040 --> 0:08:28.640
<v Speaker 1>one did I go to first? I think I went

0:08:28.680 --> 0:08:31.920
<v Speaker 1>to Sir Juska first, and she immediately was on board

0:08:32.120 --> 0:08:35.840
<v Speaker 1>and really supportive and very cheerleadery. Then I went to

0:08:35.840 --> 0:08:39.040
<v Speaker 1>Michael Patrick. He had done last year the writer's podcast

0:08:39.240 --> 0:08:45.439
<v Speaker 1>that was on the Max podcast exactly, the Companion podcast,

0:08:45.480 --> 0:08:47.440
<v Speaker 1>which was very much about the writer's room and the

0:08:47.480 --> 0:08:51.079
<v Speaker 1>writer's process, and it was great, but it was very compelling. Yeah, good,

0:08:51.160 --> 0:08:54.080
<v Speaker 1>thank you. I mean I didn't want to like tread

0:08:54.120 --> 0:08:58.520
<v Speaker 1>on his area or whatever. He one percent was on it. Obviously,

0:08:58.559 --> 0:09:00.840
<v Speaker 1>we're rewatching sex in the City, not and just like

0:09:00.840 --> 0:09:03.679
<v Speaker 1>that that we do mention it obviously, but he came

0:09:03.760 --> 0:09:06.120
<v Speaker 1>up with the title are you a Charlotte Like two

0:09:06.200 --> 0:09:11.360
<v Speaker 1>sentences into my explanation, you know, very hardcore supporter and

0:09:11.600 --> 0:09:13.920
<v Speaker 1>Cynthia was very low key. Cynthia and I almost did

0:09:13.920 --> 0:09:17.200
<v Speaker 1>a podcast many years ago, whoa like right after I know,

0:09:17.280 --> 0:09:19.360
<v Speaker 1>this is the third podcast that's been brought to me.

0:09:19.720 --> 0:09:22.360
<v Speaker 1>And it was just weird timing too, I think, and like,

0:09:22.400 --> 0:09:24.560
<v Speaker 1>in some ways I just didn't have my mind back

0:09:24.559 --> 0:09:27.520
<v Speaker 1>around it. The podcast this Cynthia and I were going

0:09:27.600 --> 0:09:29.160
<v Speaker 1>to do, then Willie and I were going to do,

0:09:29.440 --> 0:09:33.160
<v Speaker 1>which was all before and just like that got Greenlitz.

0:09:33.360 --> 0:09:33.839
<v Speaker 2>Oh wow.

0:09:34.080 --> 0:09:37.280
<v Speaker 1>And I think it was different to think about reflecting

0:09:37.400 --> 0:09:40.440
<v Speaker 1>back on the work without us also getting to make

0:09:40.480 --> 0:09:43.960
<v Speaker 1>fresh work. And I think somehow getting to reconvene and

0:09:44.000 --> 0:09:48.680
<v Speaker 1>be together gave me kind of the grounding to be

0:09:48.760 --> 0:09:50.960
<v Speaker 1>able to look back and not just feel like I

0:09:51.000 --> 0:09:52.800
<v Speaker 1>was living in the past. Yeah, because that had been

0:09:52.800 --> 0:09:54.640
<v Speaker 1>my fear. But I don't feel like that at all,

0:09:54.679 --> 0:09:57.120
<v Speaker 1>because obviously things are so different. You know, it's it

0:09:57.200 --> 0:09:59.240
<v Speaker 1>is like looking at a time capsule, you know, it's

0:09:59.280 --> 0:10:03.040
<v Speaker 1>really interesting. So we were towards the end, we were

0:10:03.080 --> 0:10:05.400
<v Speaker 1>almost done, and I just went to them and they

0:10:05.400 --> 0:10:07.280
<v Speaker 1>were immediately on board. So then I was like, okay,

0:10:07.280 --> 0:10:07.880
<v Speaker 1>goo let's go.

0:10:08.440 --> 0:10:10.839
<v Speaker 2>I was wondering, like if you had been doing it,

0:10:10.920 --> 0:10:13.959
<v Speaker 2>and then like, there's a podcast thing in the in

0:10:14.000 --> 0:10:15.800
<v Speaker 2>the scripture setting. I'm like, well, that's not how it's

0:10:15.800 --> 0:10:17.560
<v Speaker 2>actually done, you know, because I have a podcast.

0:10:17.800 --> 0:10:20.479
<v Speaker 1>Oh I would never. First of all, I think everyone

0:10:20.679 --> 0:10:23.439
<v Speaker 1>at this point has been on a bunch of podcasts,

0:10:23.920 --> 0:10:27.160
<v Speaker 1>and Bobby Lee has a podcast. Yes, And you know,

0:10:27.440 --> 0:10:29.600
<v Speaker 1>the thing that I think was funny was that when

0:10:29.640 --> 0:10:31.360
<v Speaker 1>we saw the set, we were like, this is the

0:10:31.400 --> 0:10:35.160
<v Speaker 1>most glamorous podcast that we have ever seen. Like who

0:10:35.200 --> 0:10:40.440
<v Speaker 1>gets this? Yes, and obviously not me, but we are

0:10:40.440 --> 0:10:42.959
<v Speaker 1>now in a very glamorous screen room. So you guys,

0:10:43.000 --> 0:10:48.400
<v Speaker 1>you guys are you guys are moving us up the day?

0:10:48.520 --> 0:11:02.280
<v Speaker 2>Okay, great, this question comes in from someone. It was

0:11:02.400 --> 0:11:06.480
<v Speaker 2>mentioned if you asked this question, I'm.

0:11:06.400 --> 0:11:09.520
<v Speaker 1>Sorry, I will not be named. Oh my god.

0:11:10.280 --> 0:11:12.480
<v Speaker 2>It was mentioned earlier in your episode with Michael Patrick

0:11:12.559 --> 0:11:15.000
<v Speaker 2>that the writers intentionally didn't have anyone from the girls

0:11:15.040 --> 0:11:18.280
<v Speaker 2>families an outside world come into the story. But for fun,

0:11:19.080 --> 0:11:21.400
<v Speaker 2>what do you think Charlotte's life was like growing up?

0:11:21.640 --> 0:11:25.000
<v Speaker 1>That's cute. I do think it. Also in this finale,

0:11:25.080 --> 0:11:28.680
<v Speaker 1>don't I mention something about Sororities. I mean, I think

0:11:28.760 --> 0:11:31.040
<v Speaker 1>she went to Smith We know this. I think she

0:11:31.120 --> 0:11:34.080
<v Speaker 1>was in Sororities. I think I say it. We know

0:11:34.200 --> 0:11:38.880
<v Speaker 1>she was a teen polo model at the mall. I

0:11:39.040 --> 0:11:42.960
<v Speaker 1>believe somewhere. I feel like maybe I made this up

0:11:43.320 --> 0:11:48.440
<v Speaker 1>that she grew up in Connecticut, which I think makes sense. Yeah,

0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:49.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if I made it up.

0:11:49.679 --> 0:11:50.280
<v Speaker 2>Connecticut.

0:11:50.480 --> 0:11:51.800
<v Speaker 1>Okay, are you are you googling?

0:11:51.840 --> 0:11:53.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm googling. I have a computer in front of me.

0:11:53.960 --> 0:11:55.040
<v Speaker 1>Are you seeing anything?

0:11:57.280 --> 0:11:59.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? Really raised in Connecticut. I don't know the exact

0:12:00.280 --> 0:12:01.600
<v Speaker 2>city or township.

0:12:01.640 --> 0:12:03.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, because I don't think I know, so I'm not

0:12:03.559 --> 0:12:05.560
<v Speaker 1>surprised the Google doesn't know. If I don't know.

0:12:06.840 --> 0:12:08.440
<v Speaker 2>Here we go early life. We should have gone a

0:12:08.440 --> 0:12:13.439
<v Speaker 2>Young Charlotte show on HBO. That should have happened. Wealthy

0:12:13.440 --> 0:12:15.480
<v Speaker 2>family in Connecticut. She was a member of Kappa Kappa

0:12:15.480 --> 0:12:21.400
<v Speaker 2>Gamma Sorority. Oh my gosh. Let's see she's the newest

0:12:21.520 --> 0:12:22.520
<v Speaker 2>friend of the group.

0:12:22.720 --> 0:12:24.640
<v Speaker 1>That is true because they have a flashback to the

0:12:24.679 --> 0:12:27.080
<v Speaker 1>eighties and I'm not there. That's when Carrie wears that

0:12:27.080 --> 0:12:29.960
<v Speaker 1>pink cowboy hat. Yeah, there are some kind of a

0:12:30.520 --> 0:12:32.600
<v Speaker 1>like it looks like a college party, but I'm not there.

0:12:32.600 --> 0:12:33.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if they're in college or not.

0:12:34.000 --> 0:12:38.160
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, in the second movie, they confirmed that you

0:12:38.240 --> 0:12:42.199
<v Speaker 2>met Carrie in nineteen eighty seven. Oh well, okay, only

0:12:42.240 --> 0:12:45.640
<v Speaker 2>at the most a year before Samantha. Okay, now things

0:12:45.640 --> 0:12:46.400
<v Speaker 2>are getting kind.

0:12:46.240 --> 0:12:47.920
<v Speaker 1>Of iffy meshed up.

0:12:48.040 --> 0:12:51.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but that means there's a blank slate for what early.

0:12:52.400 --> 0:12:55.240
<v Speaker 1>Because I think we've now you know, done our due

0:12:55.280 --> 0:12:58.520
<v Speaker 1>diligence on trying to figure out the roots of Charlotte,

0:12:58.600 --> 0:13:01.800
<v Speaker 1>and you know, that has been like a side thing

0:13:02.040 --> 0:13:05.000
<v Speaker 1>of the podcast that has really been so helpful for me,

0:13:05.200 --> 0:13:08.599
<v Speaker 1>because we've gotten confirmation from Kendice Bushnell that she was

0:13:08.640 --> 0:13:11.760
<v Speaker 1>not based on anyone in particular. We've gotten confirmation from

0:13:11.760 --> 0:13:13.800
<v Speaker 1>Michael Patrick that when he first got there, he thought,

0:13:13.840 --> 0:13:16.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't know how to write for that character. I mean,

0:13:16.000 --> 0:13:18.360
<v Speaker 1>we've gotten a lot of interesting confirmations of what I

0:13:18.400 --> 0:13:20.840
<v Speaker 1>was feeling at the time, which was that she didn't

0:13:20.920 --> 0:13:25.920
<v Speaker 1>have kind of the same fleshed out storylines that the

0:13:26.000 --> 0:13:28.400
<v Speaker 1>others had, and I had a lot of anxiety about that.

0:13:28.520 --> 0:13:30.679
<v Speaker 1>And now I have a lot less anxiety. Obviously it's

0:13:30.800 --> 0:13:33.200
<v Speaker 1>thirty years later, but also because now I know that

0:13:33.320 --> 0:13:36.040
<v Speaker 1>no that was all actually real and they just created

0:13:36.080 --> 0:13:40.679
<v Speaker 1>me as we went Which what a lucky person I am,

0:13:40.800 --> 0:13:44.400
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm saying, Like, what a fantastic situation

0:13:45.080 --> 0:13:47.839
<v Speaker 1>to find yourself in. Slightly scary at the time, because

0:13:47.840 --> 0:13:49.960
<v Speaker 1>when you've been an out of work actor for like

0:13:50.200 --> 0:13:53.320
<v Speaker 1>roughly a decade, you know, a little bit less than

0:13:53.360 --> 0:13:55.920
<v Speaker 1>a decade, you know, you're very vulnerable about it, all right,

0:13:55.960 --> 0:13:57.880
<v Speaker 1>and you want to make sure you have a place

0:13:57.960 --> 0:13:59.599
<v Speaker 1>a place in this thing that you want to be

0:13:59.640 --> 0:14:02.480
<v Speaker 1>a part of, which I did feel on the set, right,

0:14:02.760 --> 0:14:04.640
<v Speaker 1>But when I would go home and think about, like,

0:14:04.880 --> 0:14:07.720
<v Speaker 1>who is Charlotte, I don't know, because they didn't know,

0:14:08.320 --> 0:14:10.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, so you know, you're kind of making it

0:14:10.600 --> 0:14:12.600
<v Speaker 1>up as you go. And then as we found out

0:14:12.600 --> 0:14:15.160
<v Speaker 1>from Jenny Biks, Jenny Bicks grew up on the Upper

0:14:15.160 --> 0:14:17.360
<v Speaker 1>East Side, So when Jenny Bicks came, I feel like

0:14:17.480 --> 0:14:21.560
<v Speaker 1>Charlotte got a lot more kind of depth and grounding

0:14:22.000 --> 0:14:24.960
<v Speaker 1>in the world that we were in because Jenny brought that.

0:14:25.360 --> 0:14:29.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I was thinking about as an actor, you obviously

0:14:29.120 --> 0:14:31.720
<v Speaker 2>want more as much information as possible about the character,

0:14:31.800 --> 0:14:35.680
<v Speaker 2>but like if you get like a Bible or something

0:14:35.760 --> 0:14:39.440
<v Speaker 2>of their whole entire life. That must be intimidating too,

0:14:39.520 --> 0:14:40.360
<v Speaker 2>to make sure you.

0:14:40.640 --> 0:14:43.520
<v Speaker 1>First of all, it never happens. Second of all, I mean,

0:14:43.560 --> 0:14:46.040
<v Speaker 1>I do know actors that create that bible, and they

0:14:46.120 --> 0:14:49.480
<v Speaker 1>might depending on the situation, they might create it by themselves,

0:14:49.560 --> 0:14:51.720
<v Speaker 1>or they might create it with an acting teacher, acting coach,

0:14:52.160 --> 0:14:55.120
<v Speaker 1>or if they're really close to the showrunner or the writers,

0:14:55.160 --> 0:14:58.560
<v Speaker 1>they might create it together. But it's a rare thing,

0:14:58.640 --> 0:15:01.080
<v Speaker 1>and I think with us, I mean, I don't think

0:15:01.400 --> 0:15:03.080
<v Speaker 1>well asked Sir Jessica if she did that. I don't

0:15:03.080 --> 0:15:05.000
<v Speaker 1>think she did that. But I think that Sarah Jessica

0:15:05.160 --> 0:15:07.840
<v Speaker 1>already because she was in New Yorker and she really

0:15:07.920 --> 0:15:10.280
<v Speaker 1>was an it girl. She was a downtown it girl,

0:15:10.320 --> 0:15:13.760
<v Speaker 1>which was a little bit different than Candace's version of

0:15:13.800 --> 0:15:18.800
<v Speaker 1>the it girl. But she knew kind of the vibe.

0:15:18.880 --> 0:15:21.240
<v Speaker 1>You don't know, I'm saying she knew who these people

0:15:21.280 --> 0:15:26.400
<v Speaker 1>were just from being in the Manhattan like nightlife, you know,

0:15:26.560 --> 0:15:28.560
<v Speaker 1>the I don't know if she would describe it that way,

0:15:28.560 --> 0:15:30.400
<v Speaker 1>but you don't. We'll ask her when we see her

0:15:30.480 --> 0:15:34.080
<v Speaker 1>next week. But I think that she already had such

0:15:34.160 --> 0:15:36.160
<v Speaker 1>a grounded sense of who they were and how they

0:15:36.240 --> 0:15:40.280
<v Speaker 1>dressed and what they did. I so didn't have any

0:15:40.320 --> 0:15:42.080
<v Speaker 1>of that. Like I had lived in New York already,

0:15:42.200 --> 0:15:44.920
<v Speaker 1>but I was an out of work actor waitress, very

0:15:45.000 --> 0:15:47.800
<v Speaker 1>very different life, very very different life. So part of

0:15:47.840 --> 0:15:49.320
<v Speaker 1>me I was just like, how do I do this?

0:15:49.360 --> 0:15:50.960
<v Speaker 1>What do I do? What do I do? And in

0:15:51.000 --> 0:15:53.120
<v Speaker 1>my mind and this is what you do as an actor.

0:15:53.200 --> 0:15:57.880
<v Speaker 1>You create the backstory that you need that helps you

0:15:58.480 --> 0:16:01.120
<v Speaker 1>to understand who they were. So as I think I've said,

0:16:01.160 --> 0:16:02.960
<v Speaker 1>I would just go up to the Upper east Side

0:16:03.000 --> 0:16:05.360
<v Speaker 1>and I would just walk around the shops, walk up

0:16:05.360 --> 0:16:07.360
<v Speaker 1>and down Madison Avenue and look at the women and

0:16:07.400 --> 0:16:09.960
<v Speaker 1>look at their hair. Most of them had baby carriages,

0:16:10.200 --> 0:16:12.040
<v Speaker 1>some of them didn't. I'd look at their coats, I'd

0:16:12.040 --> 0:16:13.840
<v Speaker 1>look at their bags and try to look at how

0:16:13.880 --> 0:16:16.200
<v Speaker 1>they walked and talked and if they were talking to somebody.

0:16:16.200 --> 0:16:19.160
<v Speaker 1>You know, you're trying to pick up details and then

0:16:19.200 --> 0:16:22.560
<v Speaker 1>you're making the facts up in your mind to back

0:16:22.640 --> 0:16:24.920
<v Speaker 1>up those details. Did that make sense? Yes?

0:16:25.440 --> 0:16:29.080
<v Speaker 2>And I'm picturing you like walking over down in Massive Avenue,

0:16:29.160 --> 0:16:31.000
<v Speaker 2>like write, like with like a notebook or something else.

0:16:31.000 --> 0:16:33.400
<v Speaker 2>Seems like something Charlotte would do.

0:16:33.520 --> 0:16:36.359
<v Speaker 1>I didn't have a note because I'm a visual memorizer,

0:16:36.480 --> 0:16:38.560
<v Speaker 1>so I would have snapshots. I have snapshots when I

0:16:38.640 --> 0:16:40.920
<v Speaker 1>tell you about it. Wow, still in my mind of

0:16:40.920 --> 0:16:43.200
<v Speaker 1>what I saw then, which is why I was trying

0:16:43.200 --> 0:16:44.920
<v Speaker 1>to get her to grow her hair out and they

0:16:44.960 --> 0:16:46.880
<v Speaker 1>had made me cut it. But you can see the

0:16:46.920 --> 0:16:49.400
<v Speaker 1>progression during the first season. I'm like, look, it's getting better.

0:16:49.400 --> 0:16:51.400
<v Speaker 1>It's getting better. It's almost of the place I want it.

0:16:52.600 --> 0:16:56.840
<v Speaker 2>Uh. This next question I love because I my New York.

0:16:58.120 --> 0:16:59.400
<v Speaker 2>I grew up on the West coast of my New

0:16:59.440 --> 0:17:03.040
<v Speaker 2>York like knowledge was Sex and the City and Seinfeld

0:17:03.080 --> 0:17:04.360
<v Speaker 2>that was it, you know.

0:17:05.240 --> 0:17:06.879
<v Speaker 1>And so different, so different.

0:17:07.560 --> 0:17:09.920
<v Speaker 2>But I was like, oh, Seinfeld's little cartoon version Sex

0:17:09.920 --> 0:17:11.119
<v Speaker 2>and City is what are It's really like?

0:17:11.960 --> 0:17:13.399
<v Speaker 1>This question is so sorry.

0:17:13.840 --> 0:17:16.080
<v Speaker 2>Do you think Sex and the City shows a realistic

0:17:16.119 --> 0:17:17.400
<v Speaker 2>depiction of life in Manhattan?

0:17:17.680 --> 0:17:20.720
<v Speaker 1>No? No, unfortunately No. I mean I think it did

0:17:20.840 --> 0:17:23.800
<v Speaker 1>for this tiny group of women, right, because it was

0:17:23.840 --> 0:17:26.399
<v Speaker 1>based on some real people. And as Candice told us

0:17:26.520 --> 0:17:28.680
<v Speaker 1>at one point when she was writing the column Sex

0:17:28.720 --> 0:17:30.719
<v Speaker 1>and the City that was in the New York Observer,

0:17:30.840 --> 0:17:32.840
<v Speaker 1>she was living in a doorman building, so she was

0:17:32.880 --> 0:17:37.160
<v Speaker 1>obviously doing well. I mean, I didn't have the thought

0:17:37.200 --> 0:17:39.520
<v Speaker 1>to ask her, like, were your parents helping you or whatever?

0:17:39.680 --> 0:17:42.479
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I think it's possible, right, I don't know

0:17:42.520 --> 0:17:44.760
<v Speaker 1>that or not to be true, but I do think

0:17:44.800 --> 0:17:48.560
<v Speaker 1>that a lot of these people came from generational wealth

0:17:48.680 --> 0:17:52.280
<v Speaker 1>and were thus at a certain point in New York

0:17:52.359 --> 0:17:56.440
<v Speaker 1>society that would come with generational wealth. But we don't

0:17:56.440 --> 0:17:57.800
<v Speaker 1>really say that in the show either.

0:17:58.160 --> 0:18:01.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, I mean interesting because like Samantha can afford

0:18:01.880 --> 0:18:04.000
<v Speaker 2>like I don't have a doubt that can afford her life.

0:18:04.400 --> 0:18:07.280
<v Speaker 1>Well, she was her own pr lawyer.

0:18:07.440 --> 0:18:10.440
<v Speaker 2>A lawyer trying to be a partner carries the baffling one.

0:18:10.920 --> 0:18:13.880
<v Speaker 1>Well, carries the baffling one, and this will become an

0:18:13.880 --> 0:18:17.639
<v Speaker 1>issue as we know, right, carries the baffling one. And Charlotte,

0:18:17.720 --> 0:18:20.920
<v Speaker 1>I do think that in my mind she was supported

0:18:20.920 --> 0:18:24.760
<v Speaker 1>by her parents. You know that because all of well

0:18:24.800 --> 0:18:27.840
<v Speaker 1>at the time, at least the beautiful young girls who

0:18:27.840 --> 0:18:30.560
<v Speaker 1>were working at the galleries were all supported by the parents.

0:18:31.000 --> 0:18:35.080
<v Speaker 1>Because you couldn't really be like kind of an assistant

0:18:35.600 --> 0:18:38.920
<v Speaker 1>at an art gallery and make a living, like it's

0:18:38.960 --> 0:18:41.600
<v Speaker 1>a tough kind of a job. But yet there are

0:18:41.680 --> 0:18:44.680
<v Speaker 1>there are still gorgeous young people, men and women who

0:18:44.720 --> 0:18:46.720
<v Speaker 1>are doing that and I don't know how that we

0:18:46.720 --> 0:18:48.439
<v Speaker 1>should call them up. We should. I should go to

0:18:48.440 --> 0:18:50.520
<v Speaker 1>some art collaries next time in New York. Yes, them

0:18:50.840 --> 0:18:53.359
<v Speaker 1>should do some research. But yeah, I think that that

0:18:53.440 --> 0:18:57.400
<v Speaker 1>there is a assumption that parents were helping, or there

0:18:57.440 --> 0:19:00.760
<v Speaker 1>was trust funds or something. Yeah, but only does never

0:19:00.880 --> 0:19:03.600
<v Speaker 1>mention a trust fund, which I find interesting because I

0:19:03.600 --> 0:19:06.000
<v Speaker 1>always thought there was like some money, but not a

0:19:06.040 --> 0:19:09.160
<v Speaker 1>lot of money. Because once we get to the trade era,

0:19:09.640 --> 0:19:13.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, obviously she wants that apartment, like there's things

0:19:13.760 --> 0:19:18.160
<v Speaker 1>about him that he has that she really loves.

0:19:27.480 --> 0:19:30.480
<v Speaker 2>What do you think Charlotte's attachment style is?

0:19:30.760 --> 0:19:33.840
<v Speaker 1>And there's a lit I looked at this list, ok,

0:19:34.119 --> 0:19:37.440
<v Speaker 1>because my first thing I thought was she's secure, secure attachment,

0:19:37.520 --> 0:19:39.639
<v Speaker 1>because that's definitely where she's at now with Harry. But

0:19:39.680 --> 0:19:42.200
<v Speaker 1>then I was like, oh wait, she was maybe not?

0:19:42.440 --> 0:19:45.960
<v Speaker 1>Maybe not? Then isn't there one there's like anxious attachment.

0:19:45.520 --> 0:19:48.639
<v Speaker 2>Anxious preoccupied attachment? I think probably that that's what I

0:19:48.640 --> 0:19:51.080
<v Speaker 2>would guess too, a style where people have a fear

0:19:51.080 --> 0:19:53.200
<v Speaker 2>of abandonment and a constant need for reassurance.

0:19:53.359 --> 0:19:55.280
<v Speaker 1>Right, But that makes it sound so awful, but I

0:19:55.320 --> 0:20:00.919
<v Speaker 1>just really think that's like human normalness. I don't know.

0:20:00.960 --> 0:20:02.440
<v Speaker 1>Maybe that's saying a lot about me. I don't know.

0:20:02.480 --> 0:20:06.399
<v Speaker 1>I just feel like people, especially when you're younger, you know,

0:20:06.520 --> 0:20:09.800
<v Speaker 1>like because obviously in the first season, Charlotte very much

0:20:10.000 --> 0:20:11.800
<v Speaker 1>like believes in love and wants to get married, and

0:20:11.800 --> 0:20:14.600
<v Speaker 1>she puts that right out there. But she's also kind

0:20:14.600 --> 0:20:18.320
<v Speaker 1>of choosy in an interesting way. But I do feel

0:20:18.359 --> 0:20:25.200
<v Speaker 1>like she definitely wants to know, you know, like, wants

0:20:25.280 --> 0:20:30.239
<v Speaker 1>to be attached and wants affirmation of that. Yeah, I

0:20:30.280 --> 0:20:32.840
<v Speaker 1>think it hard to be objective sometimes.

0:20:34.280 --> 0:20:38.919
<v Speaker 2>It is this question here, what is the process like

0:20:38.960 --> 0:20:41.520
<v Speaker 2>prior to shooting an episode with fittings and thinking out

0:20:41.560 --> 0:20:42.760
<v Speaker 2>the looks for the episodes?

0:20:42.840 --> 0:20:44.879
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, it is a process. Let me tell you

0:20:44.960 --> 0:20:47.680
<v Speaker 1>first of all, as I think you know, we're very, very,

0:20:47.760 --> 0:20:53.160
<v Speaker 1>very spoiled. We have just the most incredible costume department

0:20:53.240 --> 0:20:55.919
<v Speaker 1>and costume designers Mollie Rogers, who I had on that

0:20:56.000 --> 0:20:59.160
<v Speaker 1>was so much fun. And Danny Santiago works with her.

0:20:59.200 --> 0:21:03.440
<v Speaker 1>He's also amazing, and he has like a vintage world

0:21:03.720 --> 0:21:06.159
<v Speaker 1>at his figuertips that you would not believe. And we

0:21:06.240 --> 0:21:08.320
<v Speaker 1>have many and many other people and all through the

0:21:08.320 --> 0:21:11.560
<v Speaker 1>show we had so many people helping and eventually so

0:21:11.640 --> 0:21:15.919
<v Speaker 1>many designers lending us things, which was great. The only

0:21:15.960 --> 0:21:19.560
<v Speaker 1>the only downside is that we spend a lot of

0:21:19.600 --> 0:21:21.840
<v Speaker 1>times in fittings, like like a lot, like a lot,

0:21:21.880 --> 0:21:24.399
<v Speaker 1>a lot, a lot like hours and hours. I don't know,

0:21:24.440 --> 0:21:27.240
<v Speaker 1>like I think I've had an eight hour fitting. Yeah,

0:21:27.240 --> 0:21:29.479
<v Speaker 1>it's fine. I mean it's part of the job. And

0:21:29.560 --> 0:21:32.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, luckily they really make it fun. I mean,

0:21:32.200 --> 0:21:34.280
<v Speaker 1>if you were trying to do eight hours of like

0:21:35.240 --> 0:21:37.840
<v Speaker 1>suits because you were a lawyer, that would be super boring.

0:21:37.960 --> 0:21:41.919
<v Speaker 1>But because we have this like full fantasy world that

0:21:42.040 --> 0:21:44.760
<v Speaker 1>we're creating, I mean, I am my own character within

0:21:44.800 --> 0:21:46.879
<v Speaker 1>that fancy world, right, so sometimes I walk in the

0:21:46.920 --> 0:21:49.320
<v Speaker 1>other character. They do it by areas, right, so they'll like,

0:21:49.359 --> 0:21:53.120
<v Speaker 1>there'll be an LTW character aisle, and I'll walk down

0:21:53.200 --> 0:21:55.119
<v Speaker 1>that aisle. I'll be like, I want all this stuff.

0:21:55.240 --> 0:21:57.600
<v Speaker 1>I can't have that stuff. I can't even pull that

0:21:57.640 --> 0:22:00.320
<v Speaker 1>stuff off. I mean, she does it, and she does

0:22:00.359 --> 0:22:02.800
<v Speaker 1>it so beautifully, but it's really fun to walk down there.

0:22:02.880 --> 0:22:05.240
<v Speaker 1>Or sometimes I'll go and carry's asle because we have

0:22:05.359 --> 0:22:09.840
<v Speaker 1>the same size put Oh yes, I'll be like, oh

0:22:09.960 --> 0:22:12.080
<v Speaker 1>does she have these slotted for an outfit?

0:22:12.160 --> 0:22:12.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

0:22:12.960 --> 0:22:17.600
<v Speaker 1>And they'll be like, get out of there, Kristen. You know,

0:22:17.640 --> 0:22:19.639
<v Speaker 1>it's fun. And then sometimes there were times in the

0:22:19.680 --> 0:22:21.960
<v Speaker 1>past where at the end of the season I would

0:22:21.960 --> 0:22:24.320
<v Speaker 1>take home some of Miranda's clothes because they were like

0:22:24.440 --> 0:22:26.960
<v Speaker 1>really wearable every days.

0:22:27.280 --> 0:22:29.679
<v Speaker 2>Yeah they look super comfy.

0:22:29.640 --> 0:22:33.760
<v Speaker 1>Super comfy, nice fabrics, good colors, turtlenecks and things. I

0:22:33.800 --> 0:22:37.520
<v Speaker 1>still wear some of them, but yeah, Samantha's clothes. Couldn't

0:22:37.560 --> 0:22:40.240
<v Speaker 1>pull those off either. But it is fun, but it's

0:22:40.280 --> 0:22:42.080
<v Speaker 1>a lot of work. I remember also when we were

0:22:42.119 --> 0:22:45.040
<v Speaker 1>doing the show, there was never any time for fittings

0:22:45.040 --> 0:22:47.440
<v Speaker 1>because we were working so hard in such long hours.

0:22:47.480 --> 0:22:49.280
<v Speaker 1>And I do remember I might have mentioned this with

0:22:49.320 --> 0:22:52.760
<v Speaker 1>Molly that one time when I wrapped at two am,

0:22:53.240 --> 0:22:55.560
<v Speaker 1>they said, you have to go to your fitting and

0:22:55.600 --> 0:22:57.760
<v Speaker 1>I was like ha ha, and they're like, no, no,

0:22:57.840 --> 0:22:59.399
<v Speaker 1>you have to go to your fitting. And I was like,

0:22:59.440 --> 0:23:03.719
<v Speaker 1>you got guys, Oh the pain. But there was just

0:23:03.800 --> 0:23:06.160
<v Speaker 1>no other time to do it, so we did it.

0:23:06.520 --> 0:23:07.320
<v Speaker 1>We did it.

0:23:07.400 --> 0:23:11.679
<v Speaker 2>During the fittings, Like the wardrobe people are there. I

0:23:11.720 --> 0:23:18.280
<v Speaker 2>assume there's a producer someone there. Now no who is

0:23:18.320 --> 0:23:22.000
<v Speaker 2>giving the like who's given the feedback? I guess on

0:23:22.040 --> 0:23:23.679
<v Speaker 2>what you're going to use is it? Like, like, do

0:23:23.720 --> 0:23:25.800
<v Speaker 2>you have any how much? Say do you have as

0:23:25.800 --> 0:23:27.320
<v Speaker 2>the actor? Like, oh, I really like this.

0:23:27.480 --> 0:23:29.600
<v Speaker 1>Well it's our world. We have a lot of say

0:23:29.680 --> 0:23:33.280
<v Speaker 1>yeah good. I mean, as we have for a long time,

0:23:33.400 --> 0:23:35.320
<v Speaker 1>you know. I mean I've always said that we've always

0:23:35.320 --> 0:23:37.200
<v Speaker 1>been very involved in all of it. And I have

0:23:37.280 --> 0:23:39.439
<v Speaker 1>felt that even when we had no title, you know,

0:23:39.480 --> 0:23:41.439
<v Speaker 1>like now we're executive producers of and just like that.

0:23:41.480 --> 0:23:43.280
<v Speaker 1>But we used to not have any title, but it

0:23:43.320 --> 0:23:45.280
<v Speaker 1>didn't mean that we weren't involved. Michael Patrick would sit

0:23:45.359 --> 0:23:48.480
<v Speaker 1>us down before the season started and run through everything

0:23:48.520 --> 0:23:50.800
<v Speaker 1>with us and say what do you think? Like he

0:23:50.880 --> 0:23:52.760
<v Speaker 1>did not have to do that, and he did that,

0:23:52.800 --> 0:23:54.280
<v Speaker 1>which is part of the reason that we have the

0:23:54.320 --> 0:23:57.000
<v Speaker 1>relationship that we do is that I really felt that

0:23:57.040 --> 0:24:01.600
<v Speaker 1>we were respected and considered all the time. But with

0:24:01.680 --> 0:24:07.480
<v Speaker 1>the clothes, I think so pat was very strong, right, like,

0:24:07.640 --> 0:24:10.560
<v Speaker 1>she was very strong, and occasionally she would try to

0:24:10.600 --> 0:24:12.359
<v Speaker 1>talk me into things that I was like, I just

0:24:12.680 --> 0:24:14.920
<v Speaker 1>do not think Charlotte would wear this, and she would

0:24:14.920 --> 0:24:17.760
<v Speaker 1>try for weeks. Okay, sometimes she'd go over my head

0:24:17.800 --> 0:24:20.320
<v Speaker 1>to Darren. I'd be like, Darren, she can't wear it.

0:24:20.320 --> 0:24:23.480
<v Speaker 1>It just doesn't make sense, you know, because Pat's very

0:24:23.560 --> 0:24:27.320
<v Speaker 1>fanciful and doesn't really care about real life, you know,

0:24:27.359 --> 0:24:29.840
<v Speaker 1>and that's kind of the joy. But also sometimes if

0:24:29.880 --> 0:24:32.800
<v Speaker 1>you're playing Charlotte, you kind of gotta care about real

0:24:32.880 --> 0:24:37.040
<v Speaker 1>life a little bit, a little bit. But often sometimes

0:24:37.080 --> 0:24:39.520
<v Speaker 1>too she'd try, she'd say like look at this, and

0:24:39.560 --> 0:24:40.680
<v Speaker 1>you look at it me and be like, god, I

0:24:40.680 --> 0:24:42.720
<v Speaker 1>don't know, and then like over time she'd wear you down,

0:24:42.800 --> 0:24:46.240
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean. But it's always a group decision.

0:24:46.359 --> 0:24:50.040
<v Speaker 1>In the fittings. Now we also photograph everything, and we also,

0:24:50.200 --> 0:24:52.679
<v Speaker 1>you know, we're going in the script order, so like

0:24:52.720 --> 0:24:54.879
<v Speaker 1>this is true for all production. I think you have

0:24:54.960 --> 0:24:58.880
<v Speaker 1>the script. Someone in the costume department has done a breakdown,

0:24:58.960 --> 0:25:03.479
<v Speaker 1>so every scene is listed with the description. You know,

0:25:03.600 --> 0:25:06.680
<v Speaker 1>they're at the coffee shop, Charlotte says she's come from work,

0:25:06.800 --> 0:25:09.960
<v Speaker 1>something like that, something very practical, like so that you know,

0:25:11.200 --> 0:25:14.560
<v Speaker 1>if there's something that affects her clothing in the scene,

0:25:14.640 --> 0:25:19.240
<v Speaker 1>right then you know they will have already thought about

0:25:19.920 --> 0:25:21.399
<v Speaker 1>let's say it's a coffee shop scene. Those are the

0:25:21.440 --> 0:25:24.199
<v Speaker 1>hardest because everyone's in it, right yea, So they have

0:25:24.280 --> 0:25:26.879
<v Speaker 1>to think about the colors and the textures and the

0:25:26.960 --> 0:25:29.399
<v Speaker 1>daytime or the nighttime, or the cold or the heat.

0:25:29.720 --> 0:25:32.399
<v Speaker 1>Theoretically it might not match the actual real cold and

0:25:32.440 --> 0:25:34.720
<v Speaker 1>the heat and the real temperatures out in the world, right,

0:25:34.920 --> 0:25:37.639
<v Speaker 1>but in the story, what season is it? And so

0:25:37.680 --> 0:25:40.760
<v Speaker 1>they'll have an idea. Maybe they've done Cynthia's spinning already,

0:25:40.760 --> 0:25:42.840
<v Speaker 1>but they haven't done Sir Jessica's spinning, and they haven't

0:25:42.880 --> 0:25:45.600
<v Speaker 1>done nicoles, and they maybe have done so Rita's right,

0:25:45.840 --> 0:25:48.719
<v Speaker 1>they can show you a picture. Oh, Soerita's wearing, you know,

0:25:48.840 --> 0:25:52.800
<v Speaker 1>cream silk. Cynthia's wearing these bold stripes, so we were

0:25:52.840 --> 0:25:55.800
<v Speaker 1>thinking for you. They'll have pre thought out ideas. So

0:25:55.840 --> 0:26:00.600
<v Speaker 1>they'll have maybe like ten things. They're like separates. There

0:26:00.600 --> 0:26:02.639
<v Speaker 1>were dress or pants or whatever. They'll say like, oh,

0:26:02.640 --> 0:26:04.399
<v Speaker 1>this might be a great time to wear some pants.

0:26:04.440 --> 0:26:06.560
<v Speaker 1>You know, Sharlotte doesn't wear a ton of pants, right, Oh,

0:26:06.560 --> 0:26:07.960
<v Speaker 1>this might be a great time we wear some pants

0:26:08.000 --> 0:26:10.399
<v Speaker 1>because blah blah blah whatever reason, or we found this

0:26:10.480 --> 0:26:12.800
<v Speaker 1>amazing jumpsuit or whatever it is. Right, So they have

0:26:12.880 --> 0:26:15.040
<v Speaker 1>some ideas and then you pick the one you like

0:26:15.080 --> 0:26:16.520
<v Speaker 1>the best. You try it on. It might not fit.

0:26:16.680 --> 0:26:19.159
<v Speaker 1>It might be a color that doesn't work on you. Whatever,

0:26:19.320 --> 0:26:21.080
<v Speaker 1>you move on to the next or maybe you think, oh,

0:26:21.119 --> 0:26:24.680
<v Speaker 1>this is so amazing. Let's put it at this dinner scene,

0:26:24.720 --> 0:26:27.720
<v Speaker 1>which is a little bit more glamorous, and this outfit

0:26:27.760 --> 0:26:30.160
<v Speaker 1>is a little you know, it's like this. And then eventually,

0:26:30.240 --> 0:26:33.040
<v Speaker 1>once you get your picks for each thing slotted in,

0:26:33.600 --> 0:26:37.920
<v Speaker 1>they've photographed everything, They've listed everything. Usually almost everything gets

0:26:37.960 --> 0:26:39.760
<v Speaker 1>to be altered, which you know, I think is an

0:26:39.760 --> 0:26:42.439
<v Speaker 1>important point or super spoiled. But like, that's why it

0:26:42.480 --> 0:26:44.240
<v Speaker 1>all fits us. It's not like if we went to

0:26:44.280 --> 0:26:46.479
<v Speaker 1>the store and pulled things off the shelves that they

0:26:46.480 --> 0:26:48.399
<v Speaker 1>would fit us like that. It would not be true,

0:26:48.520 --> 0:26:50.479
<v Speaker 1>at least for me. I can only speak for myself.

0:26:50.760 --> 0:26:56.600
<v Speaker 1>But our tailoring department is unbelievably talented. Like they do

0:26:56.680 --> 0:27:01.080
<v Speaker 1>so much work, Adrian, thank you. So then their pictures

0:27:01.359 --> 0:27:04.600
<v Speaker 1>slotted in and they make a book. So for each scene,

0:27:04.720 --> 0:27:06.320
<v Speaker 1>let's say that all four of us are five of

0:27:06.400 --> 0:27:09.000
<v Speaker 1>us are in a scene, they'll be every one's picture,

0:27:09.040 --> 0:27:11.400
<v Speaker 1>so you see them together. And then let's say it's

0:27:11.400 --> 0:27:14.280
<v Speaker 1>like Harry and Charlotte. They'll have a picture of Emma

0:27:14.320 --> 0:27:17.920
<v Speaker 1>and I in the outfits. Then Michael Patrick or whoever's directing,

0:27:18.640 --> 0:27:21.520
<v Speaker 1>and Michael Patrick also because he's executive producer, will look

0:27:21.560 --> 0:27:24.160
<v Speaker 1>at it and approve it because maybe the director had

0:27:24.200 --> 0:27:28.080
<v Speaker 1>a vision. Like when Cynthia directed, Cynthia directed, and I

0:27:28.119 --> 0:27:30.560
<v Speaker 1>can't remember if we talked about this or not. Cynthia directed,

0:27:31.200 --> 0:27:33.840
<v Speaker 1>I want to say the second season when she directed,

0:27:34.440 --> 0:27:39.520
<v Speaker 1>and the really funny thing where I was in my

0:27:39.600 --> 0:27:43.040
<v Speaker 1>fitting and she just walked by the door because our

0:27:43.080 --> 0:27:46.240
<v Speaker 1>production offices are upstairs and our fittings in the second floor.

0:27:46.480 --> 0:27:48.280
<v Speaker 1>She walked by the door and she was like, oh,

0:27:48.359 --> 0:27:52.680
<v Speaker 1>you're in here, and I was like yes. So she

0:27:53.200 --> 0:27:55.040
<v Speaker 1>was like, let's see. Let's see it, and I was

0:27:55.080 --> 0:27:58.840
<v Speaker 1>like okay. And she said, you know, in this particular scene,

0:27:59.320 --> 0:28:03.240
<v Speaker 1>I just really pictured you like a fawn. And I

0:28:03.280 --> 0:28:08.719
<v Speaker 1>was like, you mean like like a deer. Yes, Like

0:28:09.000 --> 0:28:14.119
<v Speaker 1>you know, like a doied fawn. I was like okay,

0:28:17.480 --> 0:28:21.080
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god. Then we're like what does that mean?

0:28:21.119 --> 0:28:22.879
<v Speaker 1>What does that mean? When she left the room and

0:28:22.920 --> 0:28:26.359
<v Speaker 1>we got out like a kind of a faun card

0:28:28.720 --> 0:28:30.520
<v Speaker 1>and I pulled my hair back and I kind of

0:28:30.520 --> 0:28:32.320
<v Speaker 1>put on really long eyelashes.

0:28:32.680 --> 0:28:36.400
<v Speaker 2>She tried to like be like Bambi herself.

0:28:36.600 --> 0:28:39.920
<v Speaker 1>Right, I was going for bamby.

0:28:39.480 --> 0:28:42.640
<v Speaker 2>The constant professional Kristen Davis. Thank you so much for
