Speaker 1: her yacht, one of her yachts, and Amy Sugarman calling
Speaker 1: in from one of her many homes for this today. Actually,
Speaker 1: it's it's it's so we're gonna do some Q and
Speaker 1: A tell tell us what's going on today. Well, we
Speaker 1: compiled some really really really good questions from everyone listening fans.
Speaker 1: Maybe I threw a few of my own in there
Speaker 1: for you to give us more inside dirt juice. Uh
Speaker 1: in between seasons because we wanted to like give everyone
Speaker 1: a minute to catch up. Next week we are coming
Speaker 1: back massive with season three. But this is just you know,
Speaker 1: to give us a little bit of a nice tie
Speaker 1: tie it up with a bow. Because we are the
Speaker 1: hardest working road crew and podcast and we were laying down,
Speaker 1: slapping down three episodes a week we do it? How
Speaker 1: do we do it? I don't know how we do it? Daniel?
Speaker 1: What are we going to call it? Should we? Should
Speaker 1: we call this the season two Q and A wrap party?
Speaker 1: First of all, Daniel, are you in charge of the
Speaker 1: naming things? Because that's a really clever man. You know what.
Speaker 1: I'm here, I'm ready to party. I'm ready to have
Speaker 1: our rap party and answer these Q and A questions. Okay,
Speaker 1: so trialed up. You know what shocked me the most.
Speaker 1: So obviously we're coming off of the season too for now,
Speaker 1: and I don't know if Scott will be shocked by this,
Speaker 1: but I actually was surprised, even though I don't feel
Speaker 1: this way. People really dislike Christopher. They literally do not
Speaker 1: like Christopher and Ly together. They do not like that
Speaker 1: he calls her lower, even though I love it. Amy,
Speaker 1: Can I just stop you here for a second. Listen,
Speaker 1: here's something that I know. No, I'm not shocked. Okay, Listen,
Speaker 1: anything or anyone that tries to drive a wedge between
Speaker 1: Luke and Laureli is going to get a lot of hate.
Speaker 1: That's all there is, don't I mean even my daughter,
Speaker 1: my own daughter, April, right, I know they do not
Speaker 1: care for my daughter Dane's blood running through her veins.
Speaker 1: Danielle's face is like, should I read some of these
Speaker 1: common good you guys, You guys, huddle up. They used
Speaker 1: the vomit like they I've never seen the vomit emojis.
Speaker 1: This is much. This is an engaged fan base. This
Speaker 1: is a dedicated They want what they want, and they
Speaker 1: want it now, and they want Luke and Lorelai together.
Speaker 1: In that regard, they don't like being messed with, with
Speaker 1: the whole, with the with the with the sleeve, with
Speaker 1: the with the with the with the T shirts and
Speaker 1: the fawning over the Christopher start. They don't want it.
Speaker 1: They don't like the gold, the angelic locks, and the
Speaker 1: and the perma smile. They don't know. Let me read
Speaker 1: some of these for you. Sue's boop fifty eight says,
Speaker 1: when I hear him called Lord, La Lord, it makes
Speaker 1: my skin crawl. Um, Amy, you got some hate in
Speaker 1: this one, pr Amy. Why did you spoil it for Danielle?
Speaker 1: Let her experience it without without hands as much as possible. Really,
Speaker 1: lots of hate. Christopher'soit emoji bombit emoji, like lots of
Speaker 1: vomit emoji, is also the one with the emoji with
Speaker 1: a mask over its mouth, um vomit emoji. Although I there,
Speaker 1: you know, buried in there. From like every fifteen bad comments,
Speaker 1: you get a good one that's like, you know what,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't mind if Lorla ended up with Christopher. I
Speaker 1: think that that happens when people have some kind of
Speaker 1: episode in their lives and they lose their grip on
Speaker 1: reality or their ability to reason. No, I'm just kidding, Well,
Speaker 1: I love this person. It's they did multiple vomit emoji.
Speaker 1: It was so and that's Amy Sugarman on emoji she
Speaker 1: plays there. We'll get into these questions, but like respect
Speaker 1: to everybody that comments on the Instagram because they they
Speaker 1: pulled through with the genius nous, like it is so good?
Speaker 1: What else? What else you got? What else you got?
Speaker 1: Are you ready? Christopher is garbage. He's a selfish person
Speaker 1: and a double dad and because of that, I find
Speaker 1: be very unlikable and not someone you want to root for.
Speaker 1: And he only gets worse and worse and worse as
Speaker 1: the show goes on when he and I'm not going
Speaker 1: to ruin it. I'm not going to read the rest
Speaker 1: of that comment because it's going to ruin it for me.
Speaker 1: But poor guy man, he just signed he got a job,
Speaker 1: he signed up to do a role, right, garbage? Did
Speaker 1: he know what he was walking Did David know what
Speaker 1: he was walking into? Here? Oh? My god? Because I
Speaker 1: love Christopher, I stand by it. We know where You're
Speaker 1: not walking back those comments. This one is like he
Speaker 1: is a spoiled, manipulative man. He was young when he
Speaker 1: had Rory, but he's well into his thirties now. Unless
Speaker 1: it fits into his life, he is not having it.
Speaker 1: It's tough to enjoy a kiss of a guy who
Speaker 1: acts like he has a right in the decisions of
Speaker 1: how Lorelei raises Rory well said, but also, I'm still
Speaker 1: team Christopher. But like, you know what, what did you
Speaker 1: just say him? On I Am all in? You just
Speaker 1: you just made an incredible statement on I am all
Speaker 1: in with Scott Patterson your team CHRISTI Did you just
Speaker 1: say that you were team Christopher? End? I'm Luke and
Speaker 1: Lorely I'm about to take off the cantel. Where are
Speaker 1: you right now? I'm Luke and Lorelei forever like forever.
Speaker 1: But I don't hate Christopher. Okay, you can't be team
Speaker 1: Christopher though you know what team Christopher amongst the Max Medina,
Speaker 1: the Styles, what's his name, Harry Styles, Jason Siles. I
Speaker 1: know that one is in Gilmore Girls, and one is
Speaker 1: the rock star Harry Style. But he shows up, we're
Speaker 1: gonna call him Harry Daniel. Let's call him Harry. You
Speaker 1: know why not Harry? But yeah, I mean so I
Speaker 1: can see your team Christopher amongst those people, those those
Speaker 1: that category of mail Homo sapiens. Okay, but Luke, isn't it.
Speaker 1: It's not a team, Luke, it's just what is? It's
Speaker 1: the truth? Correct? Correct? All right? I just wanted everybody
Speaker 1: to be clear on that anyway. Okay, guys, he's in
Speaker 1: the hot seat, a hot seat, what's going on? I
Speaker 1: don't even know what this is? What you answer questions? Yeah,
Speaker 1: these are fan questions. Yes, and as you can tell
Speaker 1: from before, the fans are oozing with passion, some passionate questions. God,
Speaker 1: are they going to stop me? I hope not. Okay,
Speaker 1: So first we have a question. I can always I
Speaker 1: can sorry, but I can always say so long ago.
Speaker 1: Just don't remember your Wikipedia ready, get ready to like
Speaker 1: something that's fun to listen to. I don't be here typing, no,
Speaker 1: you did it. That first question we have is the
Speaker 1: seven Why is there a guitar in Luke's apartment? It's
Speaker 1: visible in multiple episodes that show Luke's apartment starting from
Speaker 1: season one. Does that mean Luke plays guitar? Was it
Speaker 1: included in Luke's apartment as a nod to you, Scott?
Speaker 1: Was there anything else in Luke's apartment that was a
Speaker 1: nod to you? In every contract that I have negotiated
Speaker 1: in my illustrious Hollywood career, one of the add ons
Speaker 1: is there must be a guitar on any set that
Speaker 1: I am. Is that true? No, that's you're a good actor, dude,
Speaker 1: because I totally believed you. I think it was. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was just a character thing. Every you know, everybody dabbles, right,
Speaker 1: there was probably and in my character history, and what
Speaker 1: I told Amy was, yeah, he's a bit of a
Speaker 1: guitar player. I think she got to know me and
Speaker 1: she realized that I grew up playing the guitar, and
Speaker 1: it was it had significant meaning for me, as it
Speaker 1: does most people to pick up a guitar. So yeah,
Speaker 1: it's a a very very meaningful prop to the point
Speaker 1: where it was almost a character So okay. Next one
Speaker 1: is from Meta. When Luke gets mad or frustrated in
Speaker 1: turns quiet, he crosses his arms and puts his head
Speaker 1: down and physically becomes a ball before he blows up. Scott,
Speaker 1: was this an acting choice by you? You know, yes,
Speaker 1: and I but it's it's really not something that's it's
Speaker 1: it's it's always in the moment because you're trying to
Speaker 1: stay within the scene of of uh that has that
Speaker 1: kind of energy in it, um, you know, and there's conflict,
Speaker 1: it's just sort of you know, like I said in
Speaker 1: the previous podcast, all about behavior, what organically will happen
Speaker 1: and what organically do you feel? And you just sort
Speaker 1: of let your body behave just like you would in
Speaker 1: a normal situation. It's not you're not tied down by
Speaker 1: the dialogue. You're just sort of free of it and
Speaker 1: free with it, and you're responding and behaving in a
Speaker 1: way that is appropriate for the that situation. That's really
Speaker 1: is it's all instincts. So it's yeah, do you get
Speaker 1: totally immersed Like when you're doing a scene and you're
Speaker 1: like it's not like you're going, what's my next line,
Speaker 1: what's my next You're like completely in it. Oh wow, No,
Speaker 1: it really you know, the lines just come you know,
Speaker 1: I'm cold anyway. Um, but it's really it's a rehearsed
Speaker 1: type of behavior. It's a behavior that you sort of
Speaker 1: found the roadmap to in the rehearsal process. Uh. And
Speaker 1: it's just sort of it's sort of gels in in
Speaker 1: the the end of the rehearsal process, in the first
Speaker 1: couple of takes for me. Um. So yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: it's just sort of it has a shape. It's the
Speaker 1: shape of the scene. That's what we call it. We
Speaker 1: call it shaping the scene and and finding our cues
Speaker 1: and finding our blocking and finding the behavior and it's
Speaker 1: all gotta and it all just sort of comes together. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it is kind of cool. It's very cool. I love it.
Speaker 1: I mean I love I love the rehearsal process more
Speaker 1: than anything because that's when all the discovery happens. You know.
Speaker 1: It's wonderful. Oh that's interesting. You build the scene with
Speaker 1: your partner, with your scene part whoever is in the scene.
Speaker 1: You're building it with a director, you're just sort of
Speaker 1: and it's I love that all that back and forth
Speaker 1: and all that information that's flying back and forth and choices.
Speaker 1: So did you love doing scenes with Milo? Oh? Yeah, God,
Speaker 1: like he was just awesome. Yeah, everybody was great. I
Speaker 1: mean everybody was great to work with. I mean everybody's
Speaker 1: operating at a very high level, and you know, the
Speaker 1: discussions were pretty much the same tenor because everybody was
Speaker 1: speaking the same sort of language of the theater. Right.
Speaker 1: It's it's all about motivation, and you know, if somebody
Speaker 1: had a problem they can't walk over there because they
Speaker 1: can't motivate it, well, then we'd solve that problem. So it's, um,
Speaker 1: it's it's should a lot of credit be given to
Speaker 1: the casting person who was so on the top of
Speaker 1: his or her game, because it seems like you all
Speaker 1: love each other so much and you're all still close,
Speaker 1: and like, who who gets the credit for hiring such
Speaker 1: amazing people? Is it the casting director or does that
Speaker 1: go even above? I think it goes with casting. I
Speaker 1: think it goes with Amy and Dan because I think
Speaker 1: they have final say on everybody. I remember being in
Speaker 1: the room initially when I read for the pilot with
Speaker 1: Amy and who else was there? Gampalone and Leslie Lincoln
Speaker 1: Gladder who was directing the pilot, Um and there was
Speaker 1: just you know, she's got to feel something right. I mean,
Speaker 1: you know when it's right. And I guess you know,
Speaker 1: it was one of I walked into a lot of
Speaker 1: rooms and prior to that, and the feeling wasn't there,
Speaker 1: and they didn't feel that I was right. But I
Speaker 1: walked into that room and they it was really right. Um. Yeah,
Speaker 1: So that it's that's got a click with the creator,
Speaker 1: you know, or the director or you know, it's got
Speaker 1: a click with the room. And and that's and that's
Speaker 1: why I was so surprised I didn't get Reservoir Dogs
Speaker 1: because it really clear I felt really click with Tarantino
Speaker 1: and bender makes sense. So I have a question, and
Speaker 1: I'm sorry to steal. I'll stop after this. Have you
Speaker 1: ever met or heard from anyone maybe that we that
Speaker 1: was recognizable that auditioned for Luke? You know how you
Speaker 1: always hear like these ten people were up for a
Speaker 1: certain part, like was there anyone else? Because look, you
Speaker 1: are Luke and they were right, But was there anyone
Speaker 1: else that you know went in and read for it?
Speaker 1: There was a guy at another audition like a like
Speaker 1: two thousand and twelve or two thousand and thirteen, and
Speaker 1: we were sitting in in the waiting room waiting to
Speaker 1: go in to read for the director, and he I
Speaker 1: forget who he was, but he wasn't like a known
Speaker 1: he wasn't a known celebrity kind of guy. He didn't
Speaker 1: he told you, but he told me. He goes. You know,
Speaker 1: I was there that day. I remember when you came in.
Speaker 1: I remember what you were wearing. And I kind of
Speaker 1: said to myself, that guy is going to get the role.
Speaker 1: He said, you had this air and he said, I
Speaker 1: did a great job. I really prepared it. But I
Speaker 1: just I knew you were going to get that role.
Speaker 1: I was not surprised when when when I read it, Wow,
Speaker 1: very cool. Yeah, a cool guy too. He was a
Speaker 1: really really good guy. So thank you. A guy whoever
Speaker 1: you are, wherever you are, probably John Hamm and I,
Speaker 1: you know, I don't because he did. Didn't doesn't John
Speaker 1: ham Come on, isn't he's he's he's got an episode? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Where he Yeah? Okay, keep going. Next s up, we
Speaker 1: have question from Mandarilla Scott from an actor's perspective, how
Speaker 1: did your character grow from season one to the end
Speaker 1: of season two? Um, I think he put on a
Speaker 1: little weight. I think he grew in Tonnage too much
Speaker 1: craft service. I'm not kidding. I think I started out
Speaker 1: the role. I think season the pilot I was about one,
Speaker 1: and by the end of season two I was to
Speaker 1: ten too many red vines out there, No, no, no, no.
Speaker 1: I was working out more. Also, it was like Muscily, Yeah,
Speaker 1: oh sure it was. It wasn't it wasn't so bad.
Speaker 1: Oh no, Well, it was a combination of mass quantities
Speaker 1: of food, and I just started working out more because
Speaker 1: the reason I was working out more was because I
Speaker 1: wanted to be I wanted to feel really fit and
Speaker 1: healthy when I came on set, because then I started
Speaker 1: realizing what kind of a grind I was involved in. Right,
Speaker 1: it was my first series regular role and I wasn't
Speaker 1: twenty right, So so I said, okay, so let's get
Speaker 1: in the gym and get in shape. Was there a
Speaker 1: moment for you, Scott when you were like, I am Luke,
Speaker 1: Like I know Luke. Now, I am comfortable really being
Speaker 1: Luke as soon as I read the script, as soon
Speaker 1: as I read the first scene of Luke. Because that's
Speaker 1: why that's that's gotta be. Then that makes sense why
Speaker 1: you got it, Because you're like, I got this. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I couldn't imagine anybody else playing it. And I remember
Speaker 1: when I really vibe was something that I'm reading an
Speaker 1: audition and I start rehearsing the first scene right away.
Speaker 1: When I'm reading it and seeing how it's going to sound,
Speaker 1: That's when I know it's it's it's good for me. Um.
Speaker 1: If I don't do that, and if I'm still trying
Speaker 1: to find you know something about the character that I
Speaker 1: can hook into them, that's usually when I don't get it.
Speaker 1: You shouldn't, You're not right for it. So this spoke
Speaker 1: to me. It's actually screamed at me. It said, I
Speaker 1: am the role you have been waiting for, and it
Speaker 1: was deafening. Yeah. Absolutely, Yeah. Next one is from Bella.
Speaker 1: What was more surprising the fact that Rory and just
Speaker 1: kissed or that Sherry was pregnant. That's a great question.
Speaker 1: That that is a great question. You know that I
Speaker 1: was surprised by both of those things. Uh. I was
Speaker 1: delighted by the kiss because I thought it really enhanced,
Speaker 1: uh the story, It deepened the story, it complicated the story.
Speaker 1: It left us with a a nice feeling and nice
Speaker 1: that was a nice balanced type of a cliffhanger. The
Speaker 1: pregnancy thing, I wasn't expecting because I just thought it
Speaker 1: was I don't know, I just thought it was ham
Speaker 1: handed in some way. It wasn't my favorite moment in
Speaker 1: the show from a from a writer's perspective. So but
Speaker 1: what else could they do? You know, what did you think?
Speaker 1: Because Danielle, it's hard for me to answer because I've
Speaker 1: seen this so many times. Danielle, you're watching it for
Speaker 1: the very first time. What shocked you more? I was
Speaker 1: shocked that Sherry was pregnant. I knew Rory and Jess
Speaker 1: we're going to kiss like that was just only a
Speaker 1: matter of time. Was waiting for it to happen, was
Speaker 1: waiting for him to come back to town, like I
Speaker 1: saw that coming. But Sherry being pregnant, you got me there.
Speaker 1: The thing, the thing that surprised me most about the
Speaker 1: Jess Rory kissing scene was that Dean didn't whoosh through
Speaker 1: the middle of it on a trapiece with a sign
Speaker 1: saying hands off my girl, my girl. I knew you
Speaker 1: were vision or is in the background just like flipping
Speaker 1: out silent. You know, that kiss was so well done, though,
Speaker 1: because it was like whoa you're here, kiss, double kiss, run,
Speaker 1: and then just as you're like, oh my god, she's
Speaker 1: freaking out, she's running away, she turns with the welcome home.
Speaker 1: So you're like, that was a happy girl, such a
Speaker 1: such a well done. And I'll tell you the great
Speaker 1: part about it for me wasn't just a kiss. It
Speaker 1: was just the look on Jesse's face when he arrived
Speaker 1: and they locked eyes. He looked like he really needed
Speaker 1: a hug and a kiss. Yeah, that's why he was there.
Speaker 1: I mean it was just as vulnerable and fullhearted as
Speaker 1: he could possibly be at that stage in his life.
Speaker 1: And it's like, I love you, Rory, please, let's I
Speaker 1: wish she would kiss me, and she did. I came
Speaker 1: back for you. It's also like I came back, you know,
Speaker 1: like here I am. I came back because of you. Anyway,
Speaker 1: Poor Deine, Dean Dean up a tree falling, poor guy.
Speaker 1: I love Jared though, and I love how Jared loves Dean,
Speaker 1: do you know what I mean? Even still to this day,
Speaker 1: Jared's had so much success, you can tell he really
Speaker 1: holds a special place for Dean and always talks about
Speaker 1: him in interviews and always answers the questions. It's really
Speaker 1: sweet how all the cast has that he's great in
Speaker 1: that role. I mean, he really is a talent. He
Speaker 1: was a talented young cat, you know, eighteen. I didn't
Speaker 1: realize how good he was until I started watching you know,
Speaker 1: still until I started doing this podcast, because I'd walk
Speaker 1: around it. What's a big deal with this case? You know,
Speaker 1: what's what's the big deal? But now I know. Keely
Speaker 1: wants to know Scott so far, which guest star has
Speaker 1: made the biggest impact on you watching the season's back?
Speaker 1: That is another epic question. Which guest star that I've
Speaker 1: had on the podcast or which guest star in the
Speaker 1: ship that I'm witnessing on the show most of them
Speaker 1: yea god? Which which guests start repeat the question again?
Speaker 1: Could you counselor thank you? Of course I can use
Speaker 1: it in a sentence and a phrase, has somebody turned
Speaker 1: on the air conditioner? Thank you? Kiely wants to know
Speaker 1: Scott's so far, which guest star has made the biggest
Speaker 1: impact on you watching the season's back? Guest star? Guest star?
Speaker 1: Um got the biggest, the biggest impression? Uh no, guest star,
Speaker 1: guest star. I mean somebody that just popped in for
Speaker 1: one episode, not a recurring character, alright, so that wipes
Speaker 1: out a whole list of people. Uh guest star. Gosh,
Speaker 1: I gotta say Rune. Oh that's a great answer. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because I enjoyed I enjoyed him so much when he
Speaker 1: came on the podcast. Um, and I just enjoyed hanging
Speaker 1: with him on the set. He was he was a
Speaker 1: ton of fun. He's a unique personality for sure. Are
Speaker 1: all heart and soul and he's and he's he's funny
Speaker 1: as i'll get out. So and I just I love
Speaker 1: that character. I just love that character. I mean, it
Speaker 1: was nice to see Jane Lynch, Papa, remember that when
Speaker 1: Richard had the heart attack. That was kind of kind
Speaker 1: of didn't have a huge impact on me, you know
Speaker 1: the way that the run did. But yeah, I agree,
Speaker 1: that's that Alex Borstein, I guess we can count her
Speaker 1: m hmm. Was she was she a guest stor yeah,
Speaker 1: because she was in like two episodes. I don't really
Speaker 1: I don't I remember her in the in the episodes
Speaker 1: of Netflix things, but I don't remember in the show. Um,
Speaker 1: I do remember Jane Lynch. She was very uh professional.
Speaker 1: Uhc Seth, you love Seth McFarlane. I wasn't. Yes, yes,
Speaker 1: he's right, you know what You're okay, all right, that's
Speaker 1: the guy. He's my number one. I would say run
Speaker 1: and Seth, and I'm blanking on Max Pearlock. Max Pearl,
Speaker 1: I can sell right neck and neck for number one.
Speaker 1: You're absolutely correct. Epic question, great answers, Yeah, okay. Next
Speaker 1: question is from Catherine. Do you think the reason why
Speaker 1: Emily cannot keep a maid is because she keeps trying
Speaker 1: to fill a hole from losing Laurel, and thus nobody
Speaker 1: can take the place of her daughter. That's really deep.
Speaker 1: It's like Laurel as with a duster, Laura Lei with
Speaker 1: the cleaning products, cleaning like, nobody can clean Emily's soul,
Speaker 1: So she's got to keep trying to find I don't
Speaker 1: know that's that's a that's quite a theory. I'm not
Speaker 1: a licensed therapist, so I don't I'm not trained as
Speaker 1: a psychologist. I don't know if there's a connection there,
Speaker 1: but there could be. I mean, it's a I just
Speaker 1: think not just maids, but anybody else she mistreats. Uh,
Speaker 1: And I think it's it's it's so ingrained in her.
Speaker 1: The frustration and the angst is so ingrained in her
Speaker 1: over the sixteen years that she's just gonna snap at everybody.
Speaker 1: And I don't know, maybe she was like this before.
Speaker 1: Maybe she did have this sort of abusive side to
Speaker 1: herself which drove Laurel I away and didn't want to
Speaker 1: become that person who knows. But I like the perspective
Speaker 1: though there because that's interesting. It is that is an
Speaker 1: interesting thing. Like I've had people that work with me
Speaker 1: for twenty years. I've worked with Ryan Seacrest for thirty years,
Speaker 1: So like there is it is interesting that she has
Speaker 1: so much turnover. There must be something more complicated to
Speaker 1: it that maybe Amy was fascinated with because she wrote
Speaker 1: it in there must be something there. So she couldn't
Speaker 1: get Laurel I. She couldn't train laurel She didn't train
Speaker 1: Laureli the way she wanted to train Laurel I to obey,
Speaker 1: and she can't train any maids to do exactly what
Speaker 1: she wants, so she keeps trying, you know what, Okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: I accept that now, yes, yeah, or yeah, or maybe
Speaker 1: we just start to get that Emily is so complicated,
Speaker 1: she's not easy to work for it might be more
Speaker 1: on the nose, you know what I mean. But yeah,
Speaker 1: I totally accept that theory. I think it's a I
Speaker 1: wouldn't mind it pulling the audience on that one. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that seems interesting. It is interesting. It's an interesting take. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Next we have up from Klein, Mari fractures her wrist.
Speaker 1: Did you notice stars Hollow has an e r I
Speaker 1: did in that episode or was it an urgent care? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I get the vibe. It's like an urgent care. I
Speaker 1: don't think anybody's doing surgery over there. I don't think
Speaker 1: it's cedars. Yeah, I think it's a couple of volunteers
Speaker 1: and urgent care. They're they're in bed at their homes
Speaker 1: and then they come in the right. Where did they
Speaker 1: take Richer? Well, that was that was in Hartford? Right?
Speaker 1: Where did he have his heart attack? Oh? Yeah, you're right,
Speaker 1: you're right, you're right. Not course, it wasn't he had
Speaker 1: it at home or something or at the office. And
Speaker 1: I don't know. Um, yeah, that was hard for it. Mhmm. Okay.
Speaker 1: Next one is from Holly. Emily and Richard's house is
Speaker 1: so different from season to season and how Laura, La
Speaker 1: and Rory have a piano. Why would sets change if
Speaker 1: it would mess up the show's continuity as they saying,
Speaker 1: there was a piano there and initially and then it
Speaker 1: was gone or a piano was added. Maybe they sold
Speaker 1: the piano. I don't know, nobody played anyway. Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: let me do so like when you guys are gone
Speaker 1: for the summer but you're on hiatus, do they break
Speaker 1: down the set and let someone else use that studio?
Speaker 1: Could that be the reason for change? So maybe if
Speaker 1: they've rented it out. Yeah, I mean, look, the studio
Speaker 1: is in the business of renting out their facilities to productions.
Speaker 1: Not all of them are on the lot have deals
Speaker 1: on the lot, And if they do have deals on
Speaker 1: the lot, it depends on their deal how much they
Speaker 1: pay and rent for that stage. Right. These are massive stages, right,
Speaker 1: and you've got to hire a construction crew to build
Speaker 1: your sets. So but it's you know, they take these
Speaker 1: sets apart in pieces and then they store them and
Speaker 1: then they reconstruct them. You know, it's not like they
Speaker 1: have to start from scratch and repaint and retool everything.
Speaker 1: You know. But you know, if you've got a big
Speaker 1: movie production coming in, yeah there, you know, if Tom
Speaker 1: Cruise wants a jungle. You know, he's gonna get it
Speaker 1: lauralize how it's gonna go on ice for the summary,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Um, yeah, So they do
Speaker 1: that very quickly. It's it's kind of amazing. I remember
Speaker 1: one day, Uh, speaking of Tom Cruise, he was there
Speaker 1: was that movie where he was, Um, I don't know,
Speaker 1: it's the eighteen hundreds. It was China, in China, The
Speaker 1: Last Samurai or something like that. Yeah, so they did
Speaker 1: the uh, some of the exteriors of these villages in China,
Speaker 1: exteriors of these villages in China right on the back
Speaker 1: lot where we would shoot. So we were walking through
Speaker 1: these these wild sets to get to the town hall
Speaker 1: meeting or to Luke's diner. It was it was kind
Speaker 1: of cool. Uh, nobody I did see Tom Cruise, but
Speaker 1: we did not look at him very long. We weren't
Speaker 1: allowed to sidebar. I have to interject you guys watched
Speaker 1: the new trailer for Top Gun. I just saw it
Speaker 1: this morning. It looks fantastic And I just saw the
Speaker 1: I was watching the original last night and I think
Speaker 1: it's fantastic. It's so good. First of all, Maverick, no
Speaker 1: one likes you because you're you're you're unsafe. I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna lie. When I saw ice Man's photo on the
Speaker 1: wall and I realized, Oh my god, this is how
Speaker 1: they're working. Iceman back in. Iceman is the one bringing
Speaker 1: Maverick back. Yes, real tears, real tears, I know. I
Speaker 1: literally physically cried and out loud my mouth said, Oh
Speaker 1: of course. Oh so and Miles and Miles Tellers, Anthony
Speaker 1: Edwards Son, Yes, who's coming back to? Oh and the
Speaker 1: and the the flying stuff looks so cool. Oh my god,
Speaker 1: it looks like a real It looks so good. Looks
Speaker 1: like a movie we waited two years that was supposed
Speaker 1: to come out in Yeah. Yeah, no, I know it's
Speaker 1: going to be a big blockbuster. Man, that thing looks
Speaker 1: really cool. Sorry, no, no, that's good. Yeah. That's next
Speaker 1: up we have from Julie. Her question is regarding the
Speaker 1: sign for Luke's Diner. It says William's Hardware. Why wouldn't
Speaker 1: it be Dane's Hardware since it was his father's store.
Speaker 1: Was Luke's original name Luke Williams. That is, his father's
Speaker 1: first name is William, So that's why it's Williams Hardware.
Speaker 1: It's not a last name missing the apostrophe. That makes
Speaker 1: total sense. You know, We've had a fifty people ask
Speaker 1: us that question. It's Williams, like Williams of Postops, like
Speaker 1: like Luke's hardware, like Luke's the same thing. It's like
Speaker 1: Bill's hardware, just Williams. I would preferred Bill's hardware. Bill, Yeah, okay.
Speaker 1: Next one is from Sasha. When a scene is being
Speaker 1: filmed with you in the background talking to other actors
Speaker 1: on set, what are you actually saying to the other person.
Speaker 1: I've always wondered if they make pretend lines up or
Speaker 1: if the actors just talked about their own lives. Is
Speaker 1: awkward when you have to do this. So when we're
Speaker 1: visible in the background but not engaged in dialogue, we
Speaker 1: are not talking. We are not allowed. We're not allowed. Yes,
Speaker 1: we are miming. It's called miming. Can you do it
Speaker 1: for us right now? Like, because do you do it
Speaker 1: like this? No, you don't do it like that. You
Speaker 1: do it like wow. Wait okay wait, that's how you
Speaker 1: do it, get so much better at it than us? Wait? Wait,
Speaker 1: this is genius. Okay, So Scott okay, okay, so Scott right, okay,
Speaker 1: you talk talk something, and Riley and I are going
Speaker 1: to pretend we're like background all right, let me. I
Speaker 1: have to see this. I have to see this. Degrade
Speaker 1: you on your performance. Okay, okay, So Riley, you and
Speaker 1: I are going to pretend we're talking to each other.
Speaker 1: All right. So this will be a scene in Luke's diner.
Speaker 1: You're doing some kind of monologue and we're in the
Speaker 1: diner eating. Let me get my drink. Are you ready? Okay?
Speaker 1: Tell us action? All right? Camera ready, actors ready? Action anyway,
Speaker 1: So Taylor, let me tell you something. Pal, you don't
Speaker 1: get out of my that's really that's okay. Cut, No,
Speaker 1: I don't know what we are we going to too much? Yeah? Okay,
Speaker 1: so can we do it again? It's too much and
Speaker 1: it's too negative. It's too much and it's too negative.
Speaker 1: It's distraction to negative because you were like, you know
Speaker 1: that could be interpreted as my bad acting. You're like
Speaker 1: this Seene stinks and you don't want to do that.
Speaker 1: So director would stop you deadness tracks and I did,
Speaker 1: thank you give it again? Do it again? Okay? What
Speaker 1: can I get you? Wait? Can you give us an action?
Speaker 1: For God's sake? Professional you're telling me to be professional. Okay,
Speaker 1: thank you. And Action uh yeah, we got uh. I
Speaker 1: can get you anything you need. We got hamburgers, we
Speaker 1: got steaks. There's a menu right there. Okay, just stop, Okay, Amy,
Speaker 1: what are you doing? You look like you're in a
Speaker 1: scene from Gone with the Wind, Like what's happening with
Speaker 1: the over acting? So funny because I feel like I'm
Speaker 1: doing awesome, Like I feel like and that's what people
Speaker 1: on set think too. And then when they're stopped, I
Speaker 1: feel like I was trying to say to Briley, like
Speaker 1: you want something like so just ask her what's with
Speaker 1: all the facial moves one more time? Chill out your face? Bro?
Speaker 1: Like well it's like, I mean, all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: you know. Okay, and Action, Hey yeah, what can I
Speaker 1: get you? Rory? Oh yeah, all right, okay, I gotta
Speaker 1: stop you again. You know what the problem is, Amy,
Speaker 1: You have too much personality. It's just it's just it
Speaker 1: just you can't you can't help it. You can't help yourself.
Speaker 1: I'll tell you this right now. You are not a
Speaker 1: background person. You're a star. That's so much. That's the problem.
Speaker 1: The weirdest part is I felt like I was nailing.
Speaker 1: I literally in my body is like I am at this.
Speaker 1: You were you were the extra that thinks that you
Speaker 1: were the extra that thinks of the star. You were
Speaker 1: the extra that thinks that the cameras on you. And
Speaker 1: it's not I cannot wait to see it because I
Speaker 1: don't know what I was doing. And here's here's another
Speaker 1: funny thing. You know, background acting is really you know,
Speaker 1: it's a real art in and of itself, right, And
Speaker 1: like a lot of people that are first time background
Speaker 1: people and they're in the diner and we're having a
Speaker 1: big scene. You know, they're moving their mouths but they're
Speaker 1: actually talking, and that's not good. Right of course you
Speaker 1: can pick you can pick up and we can hear
Speaker 1: it too. When we're trying to be in a scene.
Speaker 1: It's like right, right, right, so the direct right, so
Speaker 1: the director will go cut and they're banging their forks
Speaker 1: on their plates and like really eating, and you're like,
Speaker 1: the director comes out and say, guys, can you okay,
Speaker 1: no sound coming out of your mouths and stop banging
Speaker 1: the works on the plates And it's not like really eating.
Speaker 1: You've gotta be real careful with the noises you make
Speaker 1: because the sound picks up. The sound guy picks up everything,
Speaker 1: and he'll be standing there with his arms shaking because
Speaker 1: he's been doing it all day, and he'll just he'll
Speaker 1: just drop a set and go, oh no, we gotta cut,
Speaker 1: you know, And the director comes out and talks to
Speaker 1: people and then they kind of get it. But some
Speaker 1: people just do it through the whole day. They're like,
Speaker 1: we need to get another Remember we had the one
Speaker 1: background actor on. I think I just sent you a
Speaker 1: TikTok from another one. Let's get another one on so
Speaker 1: we can ask all our new questions. Okay, it's really
Speaker 1: an art. I mean it's the sign of a great
Speaker 1: director is directing background two. You know, watch watch If
Speaker 1: you don't notice the background that's a great director. If
Speaker 1: you notice them and there's too too obvious in the scene,
Speaker 1: it's not good. So should I put this video on
Speaker 1: my reel for my background acting audition? You should not. No,
Speaker 1: you should lock that away a secret place that nobody
Speaker 1: knows about and throw away the case. Should I stay
Speaker 1: with podcasting even though people are like, I hate her,
Speaker 1: this is your strength strength podcast. You do the podcasting.
Speaker 1: Let that personality run amuck all over the place. Don't
Speaker 1: try to silence don't try to silence yourself. It doesn't work.
Speaker 1: I gave you, I gave you three shots. It was
Speaker 1: actually really fun. You're too expressive. You're too expressive. Was
Speaker 1: Riley good? I was so distracted by your bad backgrounding
Speaker 1: that I didn't notice Riley, which so the answer is, yes,
Speaker 1: Riley was really good. And that's not to say she's
Speaker 1: a wallflower. Maybe she just kind of gets it. You know.
Speaker 1: It's like when you felt like when you wanted to
Speaker 1: leave a party and you're like someone's facing your like right, No,
Speaker 1: it's not like, m oh, that was good. You had
Speaker 1: to put that up on the Instagram. All you guys
Speaker 1: don't know what it's like to be on a zoom.
Speaker 1: I just keep looking it like I'm trying to get
Speaker 1: skinnier in the zoom. The people that ask for the
Speaker 1: full podcast, you're like sometimes I'm like all the whole podcast,
Speaker 1: thank you so much everyone you asked for that, Like,
Speaker 1: where can I watch it? It's just like, oh god, no,
Speaker 1: look like oh gosh U. Next, we have a question
Speaker 1: from Amelia. She says how long of a break was
Speaker 1: there between filming seasons Alextion Alexis really matured between season
Speaker 1: two finale and the first episode of season three, which
Speaker 1: we'll see. Huh um, Well, it's just like high school.

Speaker 1: you go and do like other projects? Uh? No, I was.
Speaker 1: I was working a lot, not in the beginning, but
Speaker 1: I saw now that was why was that? That was?
Speaker 1: That was after season seven, the first one I did,
Speaker 1: and that's when I found out. That's when I found
Speaker 1: out the series was canceled. I was on the set
Speaker 1: of Saul four up in Toronto and I got the
Speaker 1: call from the manager. That must have not been a
Speaker 1: fun call. I was busy working. I don't care, you know,
Speaker 1: It's like, oh, well, I kind of knew it was
Speaker 1: gonna get canceled anyway. I had some intel, you know,
Speaker 1: I had my attorney do some intel. My attorney is
Speaker 1: very connected. Yeah, he was warning me. He was saying,
Speaker 1: it's not looking good. So next up. Sarah asked, there
Speaker 1: was a lot of drinking on the show. Was any
Speaker 1: of the real alcohol? I assume it's not, But what
Speaker 1: would be used in place of it to make it
Speaker 1: look like alcohol? It's, um, it's either well, let's see,
Speaker 1: if you're drinking whiskey, then it's it's gosh, what is it?
Speaker 1: It's coca cola. Yeah, if you're drinking it's water. It's
Speaker 1: apple juices. Yeah, they use fruit juices. And I didn't
Speaker 1: always hear that Alexis didn't drink coffee, so her coffee
Speaker 1: mug was filled with Coca cola. She did drink, She
Speaker 1: did drink Coca cola, yes, yeah, yeah, I always had
Speaker 1: a very healthy carrot juice. Uh and sometimes coffee yeah,

Speaker 1: it's just too bigger personality. What are you gonna do?
Speaker 1: You can't contain it. I'll have to go back to
