We've been seeing a lot of Tina 0:00:47.640 --> 0:00:50.839 lately and I just this is the I think this 0:00:50.920 --> 0:00:57.200 is the climax of Tina's Tina's life. Ugly, this is it. 0:00:57.560 --> 0:00:58.800 This is where she peaks. 0:01:00.320 --> 0:01:02.000 There's been a lot of Tina. You know, I can 0:01:02.040 --> 0:01:05.600 never have enough Tina. I'm all about it. And just 0:01:05.800 --> 0:01:09.680 like in this episode, just when I think, oh oh man, 0:01:09.800 --> 0:01:11.000 no more Tina, there's more. 0:01:11.600 --> 0:01:12.919 There's always there. 0:01:12.840 --> 0:01:20.600 Is a pink leotard.

Uh, 0:01:26.800 --> 0:01:28.959 this was a fun episode. I have a lot of memories, 0:01:29.480 --> 0:01:31.880 and there's also a lot of other memories other than 0:01:32.000 --> 0:01:35.399 just Tina, so we have to get into it. This 0:01:35.520 --> 0:01:39.920 air done February seventh, twenty thirteen, and the number one 0:01:39.959 --> 0:01:43.119 song was Thriftshop by Matthlamore and Ryan Lewis. Again. 0:01:44.120 --> 0:01:48.360 Number one movie was Warm Bodies. I remember this movie, 0:01:48.360 --> 0:01:53.720 but I didn't see it. Same okay, And shockingly, there's 0:01:53.720 --> 0:01:57.480 no Glean news this week because you know what, thank god. Yeah, 0:01:57.560 --> 0:02:00.480 I think we were just working and I think you 0:02:01.040 --> 0:02:02.160 probably happened. 0:02:03.800 --> 0:02:06.040 And there were a lot of there's probably like an 0:02:06.080 --> 0:02:07.920 old I mean no, there wasn't. Probably there was an 0:02:07.960 --> 0:02:12.000 oversaturation of Glee people everywhere all the time in the news, 0:02:12.480 --> 0:02:14.920 and you know what, for once, there isn't. So you 0:02:14.960 --> 0:02:17.920 know what, I'm glad the people got a break and 0:02:17.960 --> 0:02:18.720 we got a break. 0:02:18.760 --> 0:02:23.360 Then It's true. I think we had that tour, we 0:02:23.400 --> 0:02:26.600 had that movie come out that nobody really saw, and 0:02:26.680 --> 0:02:30.079 I reached that point of like we've had enough. 0:02:30.800 --> 0:02:36.200 Yeah, let's kids go away, let us go. This was 0:02:36.280 --> 0:02:38.959 directed by the one and only Paris Barklay. And I 0:02:39.000 --> 0:02:42.760 couldn't be more thrilled. But I had an episode that 0:02:42.919 --> 0:02:46.920 was Paris directly right. Oh what a drink. 0:02:48.480 --> 0:02:52.480 So there was a lot of music and a lot 0:02:52.480 --> 0:02:57.560 of really good music. Yes, Diva by the one in 0:02:57.600 --> 0:02:59.040 on Levia and Say. 0:02:59.600 --> 0:03:02.639 That was a fun one. Don't Stop Me Now by. 0:03:02.600 --> 0:03:06.360 Queen Nutbush, City Limits by Katina Turner. 0:03:07.160 --> 0:03:10.840 Make No Mistake by Barbara Streisand and King Karnes. 0:03:10.560 --> 0:03:13.160 Bring Him Home by the Cast of Limits. 0:03:13.200 --> 0:03:16.240 Hung Up by Madonna. 0:03:15.480 --> 0:03:21.240 And Girl on Fire by Alicia Keys, which is really 0:03:21.280 --> 0:03:27.080 funny because Nya and I had inside jokes about this song, 0:03:28.000 --> 0:03:33.320 and then she got this song, which was hilarious. Obviously 0:03:33.919 --> 0:03:37.440 she sang it incredibly well. Oh and it's like a 0:03:37.520 --> 0:03:42.920 very serious scene, but like funny, very funny. She'd send 0:03:42.960 --> 0:03:45.040 me voice notes of singing this song. We would like 0:03:45.080 --> 0:03:46.760 sing it off key to each other all the time. 0:03:47.080 --> 0:03:50.320 I will never forget it. It's ingrained in my brain. 0:03:50.480 --> 0:03:54.080 Seeing some of the crew, like what I worked with 0:03:54.640 --> 0:03:56.200 Jane a couple of years ago. She came up to me, 0:03:56.320 --> 0:03:57.480 She's like, remember Girl on Fire. 0:03:58.720 --> 0:04:03.200 Stop That's that's really funny. There's some fun facts about 0:04:03.200 --> 0:04:05.760 this episode. So the one on Oi Paris Parclay was 0:04:05.760 --> 0:04:09.680 nominated at the sixty fifth Primetime Emmy Awards for a 0:04:09.720 --> 0:04:13.800 Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Directing for a Comedy Series 0:04:13.880 --> 0:04:15.120 for this episode. 0:04:15.400 --> 0:04:18.160 Paris is a legend in the TV business. Like I 0:04:18.160 --> 0:04:20.880 don't know if anybody like I mean, we've talked about it, 0:04:20.880 --> 0:04:23.360 We talked to him, but like I cannot overstate how 0:04:23.400 --> 0:04:25.719 much of a legend he is. So he directs he 0:04:25.760 --> 0:04:29.320 gets nominated. Yeah, this is the eighth time an episode 0:04:29.440 --> 0:04:32.200 has a song of the same name in it. So 0:04:32.440 --> 0:04:35.400 the first seven We're Home, dreamond Silly Love Songs, Blaming 0:04:35.440 --> 0:04:37.520 on the Alcohol, Born This Way, I Kissed a Girl, 0:04:37.520 --> 0:04:40.240 and Extraordinary Merry Christmas all featured songs with the same 0:04:40.320 --> 0:04:42.240 name as the title as. 0:04:42.120 --> 0:04:47.200 Well, and an eighth song, Dancing on My Own by 0:04:47.400 --> 0:04:50.479 Robin one of my favorite songs of all time, was 0:04:50.520 --> 0:04:53.120 going to be sung by Brittany but was caught and 0:04:53.160 --> 0:04:54.240 I'll never forget. 0:04:53.920 --> 0:05:01.200 It, never forget it. There was mass disappointment when we 0:05:01.279 --> 0:05:04.840 found out that this got cut. Yeah, and I think 0:05:04.920 --> 0:05:08.040 because we were all so upset, like what is a 0:05:08.080 --> 0:05:13.719 better song for like the Britanna storyline. Then Dancing on 0:05:13.720 --> 0:05:16.000 My Own by Robin. They did put out the audio 0:05:16.520 --> 0:05:19.880 on YouTube. I think, so you can't go listen to it, 0:05:20.320 --> 0:05:23.640 but I want to see that performance so badly. 0:05:26.080 --> 0:05:28.640 I would have killed to see that performance. I was 0:05:28.720 --> 0:05:31.520 so thrilled when that was in the page, and then 0:05:31.560 --> 0:05:34.920 when we got the vision, I was like, what happened? 0:05:35.240 --> 0:05:38.200 No, it makes no sense, because nothing made more sense 0:05:38.240 --> 0:05:40.720 ever in the history of Glee than Heather doing dance. 0:05:40.960 --> 0:05:44.039 They're doing that. Yeah. Yeah. This is the second time 0:05:44.120 --> 0:05:47.560 that a diva off occurred in the thirteenth episode of 0:05:47.600 --> 0:05:50.640 a season, the first being come Back, where they featured 0:05:50.680 --> 0:05:53.240 a diva off between Rachel and Mercedes in season two. 0:05:53.720 --> 0:05:56.040 I love a diva off. They always work well. 0:05:56.400 --> 0:05:58.839 Yes, this is the first and only episode where Santana 0:05:58.880 --> 0:06:00.880 Singk's two solos and the same episode. 0:06:01.120 --> 0:06:07.279 Wow, huh interesting. Darren said that Don't Stop Me Now 0:06:07.360 --> 0:06:09.680 is probably the hardest number he'd ever did, ugly because 0:06:09.680 --> 0:06:12.080 he had one hundred and three degree fever while filming. 0:06:12.400 --> 0:06:13.760 Oh so he was actually sick. 0:06:14.480 --> 0:06:18.560 Yeah, yeah, for sure, And he loved this song so much. 0:06:18.600 --> 0:06:21.520 And I know he campaigned to do this song for 0:06:21.560 --> 0:06:24.080 a while. So then you finally get to do it 0:06:24.160 --> 0:06:28.840 and you're ill, like ill it sucks or guy. 0:06:29.120 --> 0:06:32.120 Yeah, and also it's such a hard song to sing. 0:06:33.040 --> 0:06:35.480 Yeah, I mean he's he's running everywhere. 0:06:37.360 --> 0:06:39.800 It's happened to Michael Jackson songs with me. 0:06:40.080 --> 0:06:41.280 M m hm. 0:06:41.520 --> 0:06:43.719 And it's so disappointing because like, you're on the show, 0:06:44.520 --> 0:06:47.440 you're getting to showcase what you love and then you're 0:06:47.480 --> 0:06:50.520 sick and out of all the days. 0:06:50.240 --> 0:06:53.360 To be sick exactly, that's so annoying. 0:06:54.080 --> 0:06:55.040 But he still crushed it. 0:06:55.560 --> 0:06:55.839 Yes. 0:06:56.279 --> 0:06:59.920 Rachel discusses auditioning for the long awaited revival of Funny Girl, 0:07:00.040 --> 0:07:03.240 and of course, Leah ended up playing Fanny Brice on 0:07:03.320 --> 0:07:05.560 Broadway in the revival of Funny Girl. I R L 0:07:06.600 --> 0:07:11.640 I R Art Imitating Life or Life Imitating Art. Fox 0:07:12.120 --> 0:07:15.720 publicity summary for this was Finn challenges the Glee club 0:07:15.760 --> 0:07:19.239 members to find their inner powerhouses for Diva Week. Emma 0:07:19.320 --> 0:07:24.720 prepairs for her upcoming wedding. Again, Finn likes you getting 0:07:26.240 --> 0:07:29.800 recommendations for what he should do with the club thanks 0:07:29.800 --> 0:07:30.800 to another teacher. 0:07:32.080 --> 0:07:34.200 But that's fine, he's not a real's a theme. There's 0:07:34.240 --> 0:07:35.320 a theme. Yeah, you know. 0:07:35.720 --> 0:07:40.080 There's a lot that happens in this episode, a lot. Jenna, 0:07:41.640 --> 0:07:45.680 I want you to walk us through when you get 0:07:45.680 --> 0:07:50.880 this script, Oh my god, because like, yeah, you and 0:07:50.920 --> 0:07:53.840 I spent two full years living together. They delivered the 0:07:53.840 --> 0:07:56.560 script st our homes. We'd sit down and read them 0:07:56.560 --> 0:08:01.640 together if we were together, so we're usually always together. Yeah, 0:08:01.840 --> 0:08:06.680 this point, we weren't. I don't think were we. I 0:08:06.680 --> 0:08:08.760 don't know. It doesn't matter what were your initial thoughts. 0:08:08.840 --> 0:08:12.120 We're on our way to not It was close. It 0:08:12.160 --> 0:08:18.560 was close, well, okay, I said. I was thrilled that 0:08:18.600 --> 0:08:21.760 it was Paris because it's always so nice to have 0:08:21.800 --> 0:08:23.480 a director that you know and you love and you 0:08:23.600 --> 0:08:26.200 trust when you're going into an episode that is so 0:08:26.400 --> 0:08:30.320 large for your character, especially when you don't get a 0:08:30.360 --> 0:08:33.319 ton of like huge storylines like this, like for props 0:08:33.320 --> 0:08:37.960 I had Ian. We had Paris for Wheels, which was 0:08:38.640 --> 0:08:40.640 the first time we had worked with Harris, but I 0:08:40.679 --> 0:08:42.360 mean he came in and it was like you'd known 0:08:42.440 --> 0:08:47.880 him forever, right. And then luckily, like all of the 0:08:47.920 --> 0:08:52.520 episodes that I've had really big storylines, I've always had 0:08:52.559 --> 0:08:55.000 like a really great experience with the directors. I mean 0:08:55.080 --> 0:08:57.320 generally across the board, we had pretty good experiences with 0:08:57.360 --> 0:09:00.320 all our directors, but like it was always to have 0:09:00.320 --> 0:09:02.720 somebody you really really trust. So having Paris there was like, 0:09:02.800 --> 0:09:04.800 I'm in good hands. He's gonna make me like the 0:09:04.840 --> 0:09:09.880 best I possibly can, and I trust him. I was thrilled. 0:09:11.679 --> 0:09:13.920 I was overwhelmed that I had to do Hung Up 0:09:14.280 --> 0:09:18.400 like Madonna song. It's not like it's not who I 0:09:18.440 --> 0:09:21.080 would have picked or thought they would have the song 0:09:21.120 --> 0:09:24.800 they would have given me. That's like, to me, like 0:09:24.800 --> 0:09:30.120 a Heather song. It's a lot of performance, a lot 0:09:30.160 --> 0:09:33.120 of dancing. So it just wasn't what I thought I 0:09:33.200 --> 0:09:35.320 was going to get. But I was very excited about it. 0:09:35.880 --> 0:09:39.160 And then to be also in Diva and then to 0:09:39.200 --> 0:09:43.440 have the storyline with Blaine, which at the time, I 0:09:43.520 --> 0:09:47.200 don't think I realized what that was. I just like 0:09:47.559 --> 0:09:49.400 I knew it was a big scene, right, and I 0:09:49.440 --> 0:09:51.320 was like, Okay, let me prepare for this. I don't 0:09:51.320 --> 0:09:53.400 know how it's going to be stage. I had no idea. 0:09:53.880 --> 0:09:57.080 It didn't say in the script like she's gonna get 0:09:57.120 --> 0:09:59.720 on top of him, like, it didn't say any of that. 0:10:00.040 --> 0:10:00.560 Oh wow. 0:10:01.440 --> 0:10:04.400 So I had no idea going in what this was 0:10:04.440 --> 0:10:06.800 going to be. All I saw was like, okay, like 0:10:06.840 --> 0:10:09.280 Tina gets to be vulnerable and honest and it's like 0:10:09.840 --> 0:10:14.719 a more dramatic scene. So I was, you know, I 0:10:14.760 --> 0:10:18.840 was like immediately like highlighting and getting ready and memorizing 0:10:18.880 --> 0:10:21.160 ahead of time because I just wanted to be prepared 0:10:21.240 --> 0:10:21.679 and ready. 0:10:22.880 --> 0:10:28.040 So the episodes, obviously, like we said, starts with Finn 0:10:28.040 --> 0:10:33.440 giving us the assignment of Diva week. Tina takes it 0:10:33.520 --> 0:10:38.960 upon herself to help Blaine because he's sick, and so 0:10:39.480 --> 0:10:41.840 she prepares, which is also very Jenna. 0:10:42.280 --> 0:10:44.680 It is it is I would make a care package 0:10:44.679 --> 0:10:45.840 for somebody who is sick. 0:10:46.080 --> 0:10:47.839 I'm sure you had taken care of me many times 0:10:47.840 --> 0:10:48.160 when I. 0:10:48.120 --> 0:10:51.560 Was sick, for sure. For sure. Yeah, go to Whole Foods, 0:10:51.559 --> 0:10:52.360 do the whole package. 0:10:52.520 --> 0:10:55.200 Yes, you know, but it continues the good chemistry that 0:10:55.280 --> 0:10:58.680 you and Darren have on screen. What was that like, 0:10:58.679 --> 0:11:01.199 like getting like hallways one on one scenes? I always 0:11:01.200 --> 0:11:02.480 feel like are always so fun to. 0:11:02.480 --> 0:11:07.319 Do, so much fun I'm working with There was always 0:11:07.320 --> 0:11:10.400 such like so easy. It was very easy for us. 0:11:10.440 --> 0:11:17.240 And yeah, there wasn't like it wasn't like a huge challenge, 0:11:17.400 --> 0:11:18.840 you know what I mean, like the acting in it, 0:11:18.920 --> 0:11:20.360 and it was really fun and we got to be 0:11:20.400 --> 0:11:26.920 our characters like at their most extreme. So I love 0:11:27.000 --> 0:11:31.400 Hollway scenes. It's always nice because they're actually shorter and 0:11:31.440 --> 0:11:33.640 you get a little bit more time and you get 0:11:33.679 --> 0:11:35.320 to like really just be one on one with people 0:11:35.320 --> 0:11:37.280 and the director versus like being in the huge choir 0:11:37.360 --> 0:11:39.360 room where you're sitting in those seats for eighteen hours 0:11:39.400 --> 0:11:41.360 waiting to be like, say, you're one line and then 0:11:41.640 --> 0:11:47.880 like we move on, right. Yeah, So Tina makes a 0:11:47.920 --> 0:11:51.000 Tina makes a care package for Blaine, and then she 0:11:51.120 --> 0:11:55.679 decides that she's gonna really dig into and find her 0:11:55.720 --> 0:11:58.959 in Nadiva, and Blaine's gonna help her do that. 0:11:59.480 --> 0:12:02.360 Speaking of which, you both were in the Diva number, 0:12:02.440 --> 0:12:05.959 which I get jealous every now and then of not 0:12:06.040 --> 0:12:09.520 you remember, oh Diva. 0:12:10.840 --> 0:12:15.560 Yes, I will never get over it. That was a 0:12:15.600 --> 0:12:17.640 fun one. That was a fun one. 0:12:17.880 --> 0:12:21.000 I remember seeing like, I don't know if you were 0:12:21.040 --> 0:12:24.400 texting me or like seeing pictures from it or hearing 0:12:24.440 --> 0:12:27.600 about it, and I was just like, mm hmmm, for you. 0:12:27.520 --> 0:12:31.480 Guys, Wild Days well number one, Alex Nowle on that song, Yes, 0:12:31.600 --> 0:12:32.240 thank you. 0:12:32.880 --> 0:12:35.720 But I asked her more alex Nole. I received more 0:12:35.760 --> 0:12:36.880 Alex Nole exactly. 0:12:37.240 --> 0:12:43.320 You manifested that one. I remember seeing the runway for 0:12:43.320 --> 0:12:47.920 the first time being like oh okay, okay, and then 0:12:48.240 --> 0:12:51.160 the dresses were ridiculous and the hair got to we 0:12:51.200 --> 0:12:55.320 all got to play, and then being able to do 0:12:55.480 --> 0:12:58.680 the catwalk it was very much like freeform rock out. 0:12:59.160 --> 0:13:03.319 There wasn't there was the whole like chorus of choreography 0:13:03.400 --> 0:13:07.079 that we had to get, but the catwalk was so 0:13:07.200 --> 0:13:09.600 much fun. They had the crane and we got to 0:13:09.679 --> 0:13:11.920 kind of just do what we wanted. They played the 0:13:12.000 --> 0:13:13.600 music and we just we. 0:13:13.480 --> 0:13:15.800 Went for it, liberating. How long do you think you 0:13:15.800 --> 0:13:17.160 did that? Like did that take? 0:13:17.200 --> 0:13:22.760 Oh a full half day, probably from morning until lunch, 0:13:22.880 --> 0:13:24.760 maybe a little bit after. It was a big one 0:13:24.760 --> 0:13:27.720 because there's so many people. And then Brooke I remember, 0:13:27.800 --> 0:13:30.760 and Brittany were working on that one and they were 0:13:30.800 --> 0:13:33.839 the ones there with us on set and they did 0:13:33.880 --> 0:13:37.680 the catwalk too, So everybody did the cat walk. Yeah, 0:13:37.760 --> 0:13:40.240 it was fun goods. 0:13:39.480 --> 0:13:42.360 Reminded me of the Vogue thing we did in Manchester 0:13:43.160 --> 0:13:43.920 fashion that out. 0:13:44.840 --> 0:13:46.640 Yes, that's right. 0:13:47.480 --> 0:13:51.880 Everybody looked great as well, and there was also like 0:13:51.920 --> 0:13:55.280 some really funny shit with like Becca just being a 0:13:55.360 --> 0:13:57.240 damn fool on. There was so funny. 0:13:58.080 --> 0:14:00.360 Yeah, I was like, Kitty wasn't really in that prior 0:14:00.440 --> 0:14:05.359 conversation about the divas and then she shows up. Yeah. 0:14:05.600 --> 0:14:09.600 I also had a question about the like, was it 0:14:09.600 --> 0:14:12.439 a fever dream? Was it like a collective dream? Did 0:14:12.480 --> 0:14:16.480 it happen because Emma's going on this rant right and 0:14:16.480 --> 0:14:19.000 then it's back and everybody's there, it's a fever dream. 0:14:19.240 --> 0:14:21.000 It was definitely a fever dream for sure. 0:14:21.280 --> 0:14:24.160 But it's so satisfying. I love that parison, like the camera, 0:14:24.840 --> 0:14:27.240 like the stills happening and the flash is happening. 0:14:27.760 --> 0:14:28.080 Yes. 0:14:28.480 --> 0:14:31.000 And also one of our favorite things ever is watching 0:14:31.240 --> 0:14:33.320 Heather stomp down a runway. 0:14:34.280 --> 0:14:38.040 There's nothing I love more than watching her put one. 0:14:39.440 --> 0:14:42.240 Truly, like I want to see her in the highest 0:14:42.240 --> 0:14:45.000 still little possible and stomp down a runway. 0:14:45.160 --> 0:14:48.880 Give me that hip, Give me that hip. It's really 0:14:48.920 --> 0:14:53.000 crazy iconic. It's iconic, Like the first out. 0:14:52.800 --> 0:14:56.440 Of her walking down the run road is like, oh, 0:14:56.520 --> 0:14:58.560 and then when you guys are all lined up doing 0:14:58.720 --> 0:15:01.280 remember at the front of the stage, like, oh. 0:15:00.920 --> 0:15:03.920 Yes, it was so much fun. That was a fun 0:15:03.960 --> 0:15:04.400 one to do. 0:15:05.320 --> 0:15:07.200 I love that number. And I also love that it's 0:15:07.240 --> 0:15:09.640 not like a straightforward cover of Diva. It's sort of 0:15:09.680 --> 0:15:10.600 like this disco. 0:15:10.680 --> 0:15:14.800 Mix thing that is great, right, Yeah, we had a 0:15:14.800 --> 0:15:15.480 good time. 0:15:15.640 --> 0:15:17.080 And you singing Beyonce Jenna. 0:15:17.640 --> 0:15:18.560 I don't know about that. 0:15:18.920 --> 0:15:19.400 I like it. 0:15:19.440 --> 0:15:22.240 You got the whole bridge. I did get the whole 0:15:23.160 --> 0:15:24.480 I was like, is she get the whole thing? And 0:15:24.520 --> 0:15:26.160 you kept going like she got the whole thing? Why 0:15:26.160 --> 0:15:28.200 are you giving me this whole bridge? But it is 0:15:28.280 --> 0:15:31.920 Tina's time to shine, it is. I loved it. 0:15:31.960 --> 0:15:34.480 I was like, she's getting two gigantic pop songs. 0:15:35.680 --> 0:15:38.680 Very different kind of pop songs, but two different Yeah, 0:15:38.800 --> 0:15:39.200 two of them. 0:15:39.240 --> 0:15:40.960 How was it recording that? Do you remember? 0:15:41.600 --> 0:15:45.920 Mmmm? It was fast. I remember being really fast. I 0:15:45.960 --> 0:15:48.120 think I did it in the same day as I 0:15:48.200 --> 0:15:50.880 was just doing hung Up. I remember correctly, which is 0:15:50.920 --> 0:15:53.600 a lot because hung Up is a lot on its own, 0:15:54.080 --> 0:15:57.600 just because Solo's always took a little bit longer. But yeah, 0:15:57.720 --> 0:16:00.240 I remember it being like fast and being like that 0:16:00.360 --> 0:16:01.000 sounded good. 0:16:02.560 --> 0:16:04.120 They make it sound good, they do. 0:16:04.280 --> 0:16:08.240 They do, especially for something like high glamour, high fever 0:16:08.360 --> 0:16:11.680 dream kind of right. You know, it's it's not that 0:16:11.840 --> 0:16:14.880 like stripped down kind of thing that you want. You want, 0:16:15.000 --> 0:16:17.480 you want it to be overproduced. I wanted it to 0:16:17.480 --> 0:16:18.720 be overproduced a little bit. 0:16:19.520 --> 0:16:23.520 But it came out great, so you'd make this care 0:16:23.560 --> 0:16:27.200 package for Blaine. Blaine says he's sick, He's really sick, 0:16:27.360 --> 0:16:30.560 not good, and then he goes and performs Don't Stop 0:16:30.640 --> 0:16:34.640 Me Now, which is like incredib like incredible and not sick. 0:16:34.720 --> 0:16:38.240 And Darren was actually sick. Yes, Yes, that was such 0:16:38.240 --> 0:16:40.560 a fun one to watch. Yeah, do you remember that day. 0:16:40.680 --> 0:16:43.600 I remember that day very very vividly. He cared very 0:16:43.680 --> 0:16:48.520 deeply about the way that he shot that Paris did Darren. 0:16:49.240 --> 0:16:52.680 I don't remember that he was so worried about it, 0:16:52.720 --> 0:16:54.920 but probably because we didn't. I don't even think I 0:16:55.000 --> 0:16:59.040 knew he was sick at the time. But he really 0:16:59.120 --> 0:17:01.960 wanted to get this one right. He really wanted to 0:17:01.960 --> 0:17:05.320 get this one right. I think he's been waiting for seasons, 0:17:05.520 --> 0:17:09.000 three seasons to do this number. Yeah, and then again, 0:17:09.119 --> 0:17:11.439 like you said, it's like so devastating when it's like 0:17:11.480 --> 0:17:13.480 you're sick and you're not at your fall one hundred percent. 0:17:13.920 --> 0:17:19.280 But he's he I mean he was, he really was funnyasy. No, 0:17:19.640 --> 0:17:21.560 hopefully he wasn't sick while he was recording it. It's 0:17:21.560 --> 0:17:24.560 actually more important too, like, yeah, you have a voice, 0:17:24.600 --> 0:17:25.320 but he's. 0:17:25.119 --> 0:17:29.960 Usually recording its right, so like you probably are still sick. 0:17:30.200 --> 0:17:32.720 No, it's pretty incredible. It's pretty pretty incredible. But I 0:17:33.000 --> 0:17:34.879 was very fast specific about it. 0:17:35.000 --> 0:17:37.359 I remember like, yeah, I think you see like all 0:17:37.400 --> 0:17:39.399 of our reactions to all of these numbers, if we're 0:17:39.400 --> 0:17:42.800 in the audience. We were having a ball this whole week. 0:17:43.200 --> 0:17:45.600 We really were. And it was also really fun to 0:17:45.640 --> 0:17:47.600 do a number where you're doing backups where you know 0:17:47.680 --> 0:17:48.080 the song. 0:17:48.480 --> 0:17:52.720 Yes, I knew the song incredibly well to McFly because 0:17:52.840 --> 0:17:54.399 I becampussed with the McFly version. 0:17:54.600 --> 0:17:57.639 Oh that's funny. This is one of my favorite Queen numbers. 0:17:57.640 --> 0:18:00.760 And I it's always easy or when you're like, oh, 0:18:00.880 --> 0:18:01.960 I know this song, I can do this. 0:18:02.080 --> 0:18:04.040 It didn't happen a lot right where we already knew 0:18:04.080 --> 0:18:05.200 the backgrounds this. 0:18:05.560 --> 0:18:08.040 Because they were creating them a lot for that's true. 0:18:08.080 --> 0:18:11.160 Yeah, yeah the Queen, they've already created the best backgrounds possible. 0:18:11.680 --> 0:18:15.080 Yeah, you can't recreate something, you just have to like yeah. 0:18:14.920 --> 0:18:18.119 I'm sure other people don't notice, but it was a full, 0:18:18.760 --> 0:18:21.520 like palpable change for me watching us, it's like, oh, 0:18:21.520 --> 0:18:24.240 we're enjoying this, we love this song. 0:18:32.280 --> 0:18:34.959 This episode was really fun to shoot. Oh yeah, and 0:18:35.000 --> 0:18:38.560 it was like I remember sometimes I would feel stressed 0:18:38.600 --> 0:18:42.680 because like when you don't have a lot of episodes, 0:18:42.840 --> 0:18:46.120 I'll say that a lot this time in this episode, 0:18:46.119 --> 0:18:48.800 but like you you just want to get everything right 0:18:48.840 --> 0:18:50.320 and you want it to look good, and you wanted 0:18:50.320 --> 0:18:54.680 to feel good, and you just wanted to really to work. 0:18:55.200 --> 0:18:58.720 And it was such a relaxed environment that I think 0:18:58.760 --> 0:19:01.240 that we just were having fun that it wasn't It 0:19:01.280 --> 0:19:03.960 didn't feel like stressful to me like some other episodes 0:19:04.000 --> 0:19:05.080 have felt before. 0:19:05.480 --> 0:19:08.439 I think by this point season four, if you compare 0:19:08.440 --> 0:19:12.160 it to where we were a season prior, we were 0:19:12.240 --> 0:19:14.840 like the wheels were starting to come off and there 0:19:14.880 --> 0:19:18.280 was so much pressure, so much stack of sleep. I 0:19:18.280 --> 0:19:20.800 don't know what was happening, right. We talked about it extensively, 0:19:21.320 --> 0:19:24.000 like especially when we get to the Michael episode, where 0:19:24.359 --> 0:19:27.960 by this episode it did feel like the pressure was 0:19:28.040 --> 0:19:32.879 often a way of we have our system so down. 0:19:33.480 --> 0:19:37.359 Nothing changed, like we were fully locked in, Like the 0:19:37.400 --> 0:19:40.120 new kids were brought into the system, they had adjusted 0:19:40.160 --> 0:19:42.480 to the system. Yes, recording was always going to be 0:19:42.520 --> 0:19:44.800 the same way. Learning the dances was always going to 0:19:44.800 --> 0:19:46.080 be the same way. 0:19:46.400 --> 0:19:47.200 Numbers were going to be. 0:19:47.400 --> 0:19:53.000 Yeah, it was a full conveyor. Yeah, and you're there. 0:19:53.280 --> 0:19:57.080 I don't know what exactly shifted. I don't know what 0:19:57.119 --> 0:19:59.760 it was, but there was a shift, and I think 0:20:00.440 --> 0:20:02.760 you just said it perfectly, where like you could feel it, 0:20:02.800 --> 0:20:04.439 like you were allowed to just like have fun and 0:20:04.480 --> 0:20:05.040 be relaxing. 0:20:05.119 --> 0:20:10.080 Yeah. Yeah, Well, speaking of relaxed, Blaine invites Tina over 0:20:10.200 --> 0:20:13.399 to come help him. He's made a compilation playlist for 0:20:13.480 --> 0:20:17.440 her to find her energyva for options for her song, 0:20:18.040 --> 0:20:21.000 and she goes over and Blaine has I guess been 0:20:21.040 --> 0:20:22.920 a driller or something like that to help him sleep, 0:20:22.960 --> 0:20:25.080 and he makes him sleepy and he falls asleep, and 0:20:25.680 --> 0:20:30.800 Tina then decides that she's going to be honest and 0:20:30.880 --> 0:20:34.000 be her true self and tell Blaine how she feels. 0:20:36.480 --> 0:20:42.080 And then I guess put vapo rub on his chest 0:20:42.119 --> 0:20:46.000 and straddle him while he's sleeping, which would never fly 0:20:46.119 --> 0:20:53.040 these days and shouldn't. And at the time when I 0:20:53.160 --> 0:20:58.840 was filming this, it didn't feel strange. I don't think 0:20:58.880 --> 0:21:01.320 I realized or I wouldn't have done. 0:21:01.200 --> 0:21:04.240 It, And the context of the crazy shit we'd done 0:21:04.280 --> 0:21:06.359 on the show just felt like part for the course, 0:21:06.800 --> 0:21:10.679 like sure, yeah, yeah, like whatever. 0:21:11.840 --> 0:21:13.640 Yeah, I just don't think it would have been such 0:21:13.640 --> 0:21:17.439 a big thing. I don't think that, like like the 0:21:17.600 --> 0:21:19.040 vapor rape term. 0:21:19.800 --> 0:21:22.720 I mean, I also think it was because, like you 0:21:22.800 --> 0:21:25.439 just said that at the top of this episode, that 0:21:25.520 --> 0:21:26.760 it wasn't scripted that way. 0:21:28.040 --> 0:21:28.760 No, it wasn't. 0:21:29.119 --> 0:21:33.000 And so the blocking of it, of you straddling him, yeah, 0:21:33.720 --> 0:21:35.920 I think adds extra layer. 0:21:36.000 --> 0:21:40.640
