  Speaker 1: North Carolina a little while ago, and I hope you

• 0:37
  Speaker 1: Sean gun Scott Patterson. But come we're guys y. Hi everybody. Hi, Hello, gentlemen.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: How has your weekend been so far? It's busy, We're busy.
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: Good to be in uh Raleigh, Durham, that's for sure.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: It's been forty one year since I've been in Durham.
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: I was a former Durham bulle and it's nice to
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: be back and see all these smiling faces. That's cool. Yeah,
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: I like being here. I was at a convention here
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: like five like six years ago, maybe five or six
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: years ago, um, and haven't been back since. But it's wonderful. Um.
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: I just got in. I can't wait to explore the
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: city a little more. But it's been great, awesome. Wait,
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: we're happy to have you guys. Uh. So we'll kind
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: of get into it. We kind of have to. That's
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: the whole point of this um Gilmore Girls cult phenomenon
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: that spans gender age. It's just it's like the show
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: that just tapped into a vein that television I think
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: almost didn't really expect. Um. Did you guys know that
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: right off the page? Did it come to you? Was
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: that a parent? Yeah? It was unusually um, you know,
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: I don't refer to it as sticky. You know, Amy
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: grew up with a father who was a stand up comic,
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: and she had all of these legends in her living room,
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: Don Rickles and Dom DeLuise and all the leading comedians
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: of the day. So and and extends itself into Mazel
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: where the character is it's like, get over it already.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: Amy write a show about a stand up comic that's
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: a woman, and she did in Gilmore Girls too, because
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: Laurela is basically a stand up comic. Because and and
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: a lot of other people on the show, Sean being
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: one of them, uh and one of the finest physical
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: comedians that I've seen, um and unsung, and that aggravates me,
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: which is why I have a podcast. And uh, here's
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: a secret. I asked Seawan to be my co host.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: But he was, he's so busy being a movie star
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: he can't do it, and God bless him, God bless him. Um.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: But I think I think that's unique in any type
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: of uh television endeavor where the lead character is just
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: doing joke after joke after joke after to joke after
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: joke and it kind of makes sense, you know, it's
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: not too far afield. So I think that's the secret
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: power of the show, amongst all the other obvious reasons. Um,
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: But to put it in a sort of uh, you know,
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: a sort of a family drama of that kind of
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: depth and power and meaning, and especially in a Daniel
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: Palladino written episode, I'm finding a pattern where it's everything
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: is light and funny and charming, and then at the
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: end there's a heavy moment um and he really just
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: rips your heart out with it. So I just think
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: the writing is unusually uh um powerful, but it's but
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: you get to enjoy this all these great jokes. So
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: I think that's the uniqueness of it. Yeah, I that's
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: interesting calling Lorelia a stand up. It's true, there's it
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: really is. There's just a lot there's a large element
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: of that, um, you know, Scott was with the show
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: from the the very very top, and I came in
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: a little bit later. I was on the first episode
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: after the pilot. Um and uh. And I didn't know.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: I didn't know anything about the show and I had
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: no idea whether it would be successful or not. I
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: think if you ask me then I probably would have
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: guessed no. Um, but I don't. But not because of
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: but but but partially just because I didn't. I didn't
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: quite see where it fit, you know. And it was like, um,
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: like you can tell by when they were award nominations
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: in the first year, it was up for comedy and
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: then they changed it to drama or something like that,
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: and like the and and and it was like, oh,
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: this show doesn't know exactly what it is, which I
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: thought at the time might hurt it. But it turns out,
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: and we've seen this in television, that audience has had
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: much more of a taste for that than people knew.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: So that turned out to be actually one of the
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: big strengths of the show, that it that it was
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: that it did both, that it really was you know,
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: as you were just talking about it would be funny
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: and then heavy and it would kind of go back
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: and forth, but um, but I really the thing is
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: is that you know, great writing will always shine through,
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: it will always rise to the rise to the surface
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: and and make something really good and this and the
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: writing on the show is terrific, so um so looking back,
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: I think, I think me now would read it and say, oh,
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: this is a surefire hit because the writing is great
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: and that's really all you need. Um. But it's been
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: a hell of a ride when I just um, elaborate
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: a little bit, um and I know we have other questions.
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: But when I got on this set for the first
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: time in Toronto, in Unionville, where we shot the pilot,
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: I went a little bit early because I wanted to
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: sort of check out Luke's Diner and what it was
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: going to be all about, and spent a little time
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: in it, and Lauren and Alexis were sitting there rehearsing
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: a scene in the diner, and the chemistry between them
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: was so good and so easy and so free that
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: I thought, boy, this is this, This might be something,
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: you know. And then I remember having a conversation with Lauren.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: Amy would have a Christmas party every year at our
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: house is massive palitial estate. Um, And I remember having
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: a conversation with with Lauren at that party, you know,
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: what do you think it's how long you think it's
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: gonna go? And we both kind of agreed that it
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: would we would go at least five years. So that
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: was my gut reaction that it was gonna We're gonna
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: get over a hundred episodes. We're gonna get the cake.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: See the executives come out of their suits and give
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: you a cake. If you get a hundred episodes, you know,
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: it's like congratulations for your hundred episodes, you know, because
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: so few get two hundred episode odes um and and
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: so our show amazingly paid for all of their duds.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: They lost money on um UM, but very grateful to
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: be a part of it. Um. But yeah, I thought
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: it would go about five I remember at the time
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: that Will and Grace had gone a hundred episodes and
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: all of the all of the actors on the show
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: got mercedes to celebrate like that. The network gave them
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: as a gift, gave them mercedes, and I'm like, I
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: wonder what we're gonna get and I think I got
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: an actual tote bag. Oh w B. I mean they
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: didn't they just didn't have the budget, you know, God
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: bless even a bracelet like a cubic zirconium or something
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: and a picture of a car. Yeah right, yeah, Uh,
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: well looks like we actually have a question. Let's go
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: ahead and go ahead and see we have what's your name? Naomi?
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: And I'm enjoying it for a second time watching this
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: show with my daughter who was fourteen, So it's a
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: lot of fun for me. But to piggyback on what
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: you were saying, the banter of the episode is fast paced.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: How often oh I started a line? Now, how many
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: takes would it take to get through a typical scene? Uh?
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: It varied, but you know, we we had to do
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: a lot of takes because it was Um. First of all,
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: we shot right next to an airport, um and often
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: outside Uh we're right right by Burbank Airport, which is funny.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: But also, you know, the pattern and the rhythm of
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: the show is very specific and every thing had to
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: be verbatim. Uh and so and if it wasn't, we
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: would do it again. Um. And it's in the moment
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: it feels, you know, when you're working really long hours
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: and whatever, it can be like damn it really you know, Um,
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: but but it it. But when you see it in retrospect,
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: it had to be that way like it had. The
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: show had to work the way that it that it worked.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: It's like a it's like a the Rupe Goldberg machine
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: or something like that. I was gonna say, it's a
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: precision machine. Yeah, it absolutely, Yeah, And so sometimes it
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: would take a lot, it would it would take a
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: long time, but we generally knew our lines, so it
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: was all right. We had one director who will remain nameless,
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: who was very good director, really knew where to put
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: the camera, which is half the battle um. And we
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: referred to that director as take it in mic take
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: because we did so many takes with that director. And
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: I think that that Jess remember when I pushed Jess
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: in the lake, Well, there's a walk and talk before
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: that scene. We shot that thirty times. Yeah, yeahs where
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: your Mercedes win you're in and all on tape. There
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: was a there's a there's a long walk through the
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: um through the fake snow and season one that's like
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: every like all these towns people is probably the it
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: was probably the fourth episode I did, maybe fourth or
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: fifth and uh and yeah, that was it was after
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: midnight and it was and I think we I think
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: we did over forty takes of that of that shot,
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: and it was long and all the way through, and
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: it was like and that fake snow is not that
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: fake snow is like made of of shredded paper. Finally
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: shredded paper, which, um, you know, I hope, I hope
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: it didn't have any long term health Yeah, right, padding
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: fake snow long. I guys, love you both very much,
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: love you back. I would love to know what was
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: the best and worst advice you got when you were
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: starting out as an actor. Best advice on it for
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: TV acting is stumble, uh come in talking, which means
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: no your lines cold. And the worst advice uh hold
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: that thought. I'll do best advice too, because I also
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: can't think of worst advice yet. But I think I
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: think for me, the best advice is prepare your audition
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: as though you've already gotten the job, um, so that
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: you're not. I think it's a very very common mistake
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: for actors to be like, I just tell me what
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: you want and I'll do that, and they think that
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: that it's up to somebody else to like to like
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: let them know how they're supposed to be UM playing
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: a scene when it's just you got to just kind
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: of decide and go for it, and then you're either
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: right for it or you're not. Generally Um take over
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: the room, flip the psychology. You gotta understand something. If
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: they're seeing us, you know, they're making offers to names,
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: and they're not getting callbacks from their big powerful agents
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: in there piste off, and they don't want to see you.
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: They're not interested in seeing you. There's twenty of me,
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: there's forty of me. They don't care. So you gotta
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: do something to get their attention, you know, And that
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: that actually I actually did that and it worked. I
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: got the job. I believe it. And yeah I was
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: just I had an opening for a good line there.
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: But but no, He's right, it is you have to
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: uh it's like it's it's there always has to be
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: something that's going to to single you out. Although what
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: I was gonna say is the funny thing is that
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: a lot of that that advice is obsolete now because
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: nothing's in the room anymore. Everything's on tape. Everything is
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: on tape, on tape. All your auditions are on tape.
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: Which is I'm going to do that on tape. That's funny.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: Start your tape with can I have a minute? You
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: don't ask, you just just turn your back on it.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: I should have done that with the Natalie Portman thing.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: I would have gotten it. Damn, they're just watching the
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: room like, is this the last known video of Scott Patterson?
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: What's happening? Yeah? Hi? What's your name? Hi? Sorry, my
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: name is Sophia UM. I think you both are really awesome.
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: But my questions for Scott um with Jess. He was
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: supposed to get a reboot for his own show. Were
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: you in any part of that? Would you want to
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: be in any part of that? If he was able
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: to get one. I know it was just rumored. This
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: was like forever ago, but I think after season three
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: they were thinking about it. When he was in California.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: He did. He did get his own show. They filmed
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: a pie that he did a pilot with Um rob
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: Estes and it did. It didn't fly. I didn't get
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: picked up, So then where did it go? I wanted that? Yes, Scott,
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: let me look, I might be in my wallet. If
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: Jack Warner a call, will you Scott? It's not in there?
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I wish it was. That would be
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: really awesome. But I just I mean, just as top
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: tier favorites. That's why I was kind of like, that's
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: a shame and not didn't rupt you, but it's a
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: shame because he's struggling so much now as an actor.
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: He can't seem to find any work. He looks like
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: he's having fun though, That's what matters, right, whatever happened,
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: I don't know, just poor Milo. Yeah, a few other
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: actors too. What's the name of the woman who played
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: Suki God I think I know it was. It was
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: Martina something McConnelly, Molly McConnelly, right, who, thank you so much,
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: very very welcome. Like I'm Robert Um. I really love
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: Give More Worlds. I watched it when I was younger,
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: watched at least two times now actually, So my question
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: for Sean as Kirk, what was your favorite role of
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: doing his job? Like? What job was your pharaoh? You know?
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: The interesting thing is like in life, my favorite stuff
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: was when I'm not working, so like I love the
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: you know, like my favorite all my favorite Kirk episodes
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: are like the one where where Kirk plays Tavia and
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: Fiddler on the roof and the one where he's Jesus,
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: and the Festival of a Living Art and uh, you know,
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: like searching for the eggs and the I don't know
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: if any of those are actual jobs, but um, I
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: did really enjoy uh announcing the hockey game as a job,
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: only because there's some you know, egotistical part of my
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: own psyche that believes that I would have been a
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: really good sports announcer had I put my mountain, had
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: I put my mind to it, and and I got
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: to sit down all day at work. So thank you. First,
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: I wanted to say thank you. I met you yesterday.
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: I was in a totally different get up, so you
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: might not recognize me. What did your point to Scott? Hi,
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: I was a mathematician. You were very nice. I think
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: Gilmore Girls means a lot to a lot of people,
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: so I really was grateful that you talked to me.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: Uh And congrats on terminal list. That was amazing. Thank you.
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: But my question is, um, what were the friendships that
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: you formed on the show. It's a really long show,
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: imagine a lot of friendships, and what was it like
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: forming those friendships? Any favorite memories? I mean, my friendship
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: with Seawan is going in twenty two years now, and uh,
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: it just keeps getting better and better. You know it's true. Yeah,
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: and others and you know it's yeah. I mean I
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: think there's a part of us You're gonna on some level, Um,
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: you're gonna be sort of friendly with everybody forever, like
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: if you It's like, there are people I haven't seen
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: in ten years. But if I saw him and be
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: oh my god, and you get my hugging and catch
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: up and see what we see what they're up to.
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: But yeah, I'm friends with Scott and I'm friends with
• 17:33

• 17:43
  Speaker 1: and I'm I'm I'm friends now with Amy and Dan
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: in a way that I wasn't then. Really, I think
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: they scared me when I was a young actor, and
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: now I think I think that I know them a
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: little better. Um Uh. John Cabrero, who's who played Brian,
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: has been one of my closest friends since college, so
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: that actually pre dates Gilmore Girls and Keiko and I
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: are good friends anyway. But you know, I don't know,
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: it's They're all great. Thank you, Hi, um Sean. I
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: love your pants They're awesome. Thank you. Um, I just
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: had a question about I think the there was some
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: mixed reviews about the ending of Gilmore Girls, and I
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: wanted to see what your thoughts were, if you liked
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: the ending, if you wanted it to continue, or how
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: how you liked where it ended up originally or in
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: the in the after we did the A year in
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: the for a year in the Life. You mean, I
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: don't know, what do you think. I don't like what
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: they did to Rory. I I can I get a hallelujah, hallellujah.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: I think you respect ed herman. You give him half
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: the first episode two mourn and to go through that process,
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: and then you do three and a half episodes of
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: a huge wedding, and I just it's for me. It
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: was a big missed opportunity to sort of introduce all
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: of those machinations and shenanigans that would have occurred, uh
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: the run up to the everybody behind schedule and screwing
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: up and falling in. I mean, it just would have
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: been great. Um, And I think the fans really deserve
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: something that was that on the nose, because Amy and
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: Dan don't write things that are on the nose. They
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: they they go big when you expect them to go small,
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: and vice versa. So that's kind of the beauty of
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: what they do. One of the aspects of what they do, UM,
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: that few people do. UM. But I think in that
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: situation it was warranted because it was just so obvious
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: what the fans wanted. And I just think that was
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: the time you got to give the fans what they want.
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: And maybe they will I don't know eventually. So those
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: are my two main points. I and I get all.
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: I Yeah, I don't. I kind of a difficult time
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: sometimes being sort of uh critical, you know, in the
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: in the non pejorative sense of the word, like really
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: being able to sort of judge what when I'm in
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: something like that when I'm so close to it. Um,
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: I tend to know by the audience reaction, like if
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: everybody hates it, it was probably a problem, you know,
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: Game of Thrones, um. But if but if every and
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: if everyone likes it, it was it was a good decision,
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: whether I thought so at the time or not. UM,
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: I don't know, really, I know I was sort of
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: felt like the original ending of the series when we
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: were done in two thousand seven, was so unsatisfying personally
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: because we weren't even sure it was ending. I mean,
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: maybe you know, it was like it was like a
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: half ending where we might do another something, but we
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: might not, And so they kind of tried to leave
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: it open ended. Plus Amy and Dan and we're gone
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: by that point and uh, and so there was something
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: always unsatisfying about that. And I know that Amy ended
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: it the way she wanted to end it originally, and uh,
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't I I never really questioned
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: that too much, so I sort of feel like it was. Um.
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: I thought the episodes were good, So I don't know.
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: I don't know what I would have done differently, But
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: I always believe that's your opinion about that is better
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: than mine is. Thank you. Hi, my name is Jesse. Um.
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: I think the real question on everyone's mind is the
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: one I'm about to ask Dean Logan, Jess, which team
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: are you on? I don't care. I was expecting Jets.
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: I am team Rory does not need a man to
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: define her Sean, I think you should run for office. Yeah, yeah,
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: the non diplomatic answer, Um, but I would only rate
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: them by how I actually know. I I don't know,
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: I thought. I was kind of thought, honestly, if I
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: did have to choose, I was probably Team Logan. I had.
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: I had Ted Ted Rooney on who played more brilliantly
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: played more? I had him on my podcast because I
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: do a rewatch podcast. If you didn't know on Gilmark
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: So uh and so one of the questions that I am,
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: you know, we kind of came up with and they
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: my heart came up with was you know at the
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: end it's called rapid fire. And asked him serious question,
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: do you drink coffee? How many cups? Did? Are your
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: Team Logan? Jess? So we got to that part of it,
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: and I asked him about who he preferred to be
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: the baby daddy, and Ted Rooney's reaction was the funniest
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: thing I've ever seen. And he just goes, Oh God,
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: that's gross. Who cares? I love Ted Rooney. We're a
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: comic com though, so you gotta say the Wookie is
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: your is your choice for them? Did you have a
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: fling with a Wookie? Yeah? More gold from the episodes. Hi,
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: it's nice to meet you both. Um. I have a
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: question about the year in the life, So, how did
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: it feel like going back to the Warner Brothers studio.
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: Did you feel like filming that four episodes like series
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: was like? Did you feel like you picked up where
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: you left off? Was that chemistry sold there between everyone
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: or just how did you process that? I? I thought
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: it was great. Uh. The diner Luke's Diners specifically, was
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: really it was like a two point oh version of it.
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: It was brighter, it was better. The floor was spongey
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: because the sound department said, make a spongey floor. We're
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: tired of the squeaks and the cracking and the stuff
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: wrecking the takes. And it was all just better, you know.
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: One of the good things about Netflix. And it wasn't
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: all good, but it was a lot of good. One
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: of the good things about Netflix coming is they spent
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: a lot of money on the production UM and the
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: technology had changed over the years since we last for
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: their filming, So in nine years or whatever it was UM,
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: I mean, the camera equipment, all aspects of the of
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: how you make a film were vastly superior. UM. So
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: it was really exciting to come back, and yes we did. Uh.
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: I at least I felt back into the flow u
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: of the acting with those actors pretty easily. Yeah, it
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: was wonderful. Yeah, I felt the same way. It was
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: nice to have a little a little more space to
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: like to do what we wanted to do. It was like,
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: you know, we had a little more time, um, which
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: was which was really cool. I was definitely like from
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: a personal standpoint, I was I was nervous going back
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: into it. I was like, I was like, I don't
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: know if I'm like, I'm not sure where this lives
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: in my brain. And it was really like the second
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: take of the first day that I was like, oh,
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: there's pa Keys right there. There's no it was not
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: It was not difficult at all. It was like it
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: was like putting on a pair of slippers that that
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: you've owned forever, you know, think you both hi? Um So,
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: my mom and sister like watch Yelmore girls like every
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: day it feels like anyway, I want to ask what
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: your favorite cereal is? What's your favorite cereal? Come on?
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: Come on? Uh? I like those um the Quaker Squares
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: life No, no, the the actual the Quaker ones, the
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: Quicker Oat Squares, the little ones, the like, I forget
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: what they call. I gotta be honest with you. I'm
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: not a serial guy. I go right through the eggs.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: I'm an egg guy. All right, thank you my favorite
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: bourbon you said, um probably uh hey, Um, I'm Brittany.
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: My question is so Gilmore girls, I think for probably
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: a lot of us is are like anxiety show. Sometimes
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: my husband's like, my gosh, you're watching it again? You okay? Um?
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: So what would y'all's anxiety show be? Or a movie
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: if you all have one that you go to to
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: feel comfortable. If I want to like hill myself out, yeah,
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: Rick and Morty, Yeah, I love that. Um. Recently it's
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: been Seinfeld. Okay, very cool, thank you, just full of laughs. Hi.
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: I'm Caitlin. So my question is for Scott. So a
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: lot of us are romantics here. So when you and
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: Lauren had to figure out how to put the chemistry
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: that you guys have been running around for, you know,
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: seasons and put that into your episode where you finally
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: define your relationship, how was that for you? It's just there,
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: there's no work put into that. That's just the two
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: personalities coming together and something ignites, something happens, and you
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: can't it can't be manufactured. It's just it's either there,
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: it's not you know, one of the great lessons I
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: learned from acting class in New York was we could
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: always tell the guy and the girl that was doing
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: the scene together that slept together because there was no
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: tension in the scene and we were all like, you know,
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: bored out of our minds. Um, So I'm not really
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: trying to imply anything here, gang, but uh, if there's
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: energy between people that translate naturally without any effort, that
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: translates onto the screen, you know that camera is a
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: truth machine. You can't fool it. Thank you, Hiam casey Um.
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: What was the biggest acting challenge for you in either series,
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: either comedic or dramatic where you read the script and
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: you're like, how am I going to do that? I
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: can say that I remember the one time that I
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: and I bring it up as my favorite episode, so
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: I can remember what There's one time I went to
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: Edward Herman, the Great Great Edward Herman and asked for
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: his advice, And it was for the episode The Fiddler
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: in the Roof episode where where Kirk is playing Tavia
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: and I'm like, and I was like, I had this weird.
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: I'm like, should I be bad at it? Like the singing?
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: Like when I have to sing the song. Should I
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: do it poorly for comedy purposes or just do it
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: as well as I can? And I'm not a great
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: singer anyway, so it will be pooring like this just
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: not like it's like, don't sound like much of a
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: choice show anither you're bad at it or you're bad
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: at it. But now I couldn't kind of couldn't really,
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: I couldn't couldn't really decide what the exact sort of
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: right way to play that was. And Edward was like, like,
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: just totally go for it, just completely go for it,
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: and uh, and he was absolutely right, So that sticks out. Uh,
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: my experience with that, your question is it was I
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: don't know. I think the first episode back from it
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: was episode two, season one at Warner Brothers and it
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: was six am and Lauren and I were in the
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: makeup trailer and one of the p a's just dropped
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: off a new scene hot off the press is just
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: yeah and you've been there, and it was ten pages,
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: we're adding this, we're shooting. It's first up, and it
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: was like, you know, you know, Lauren is all black ink,
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: It's just chunks of dialogue. And then Luke Michael hoo.
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: You know, well, I don't know. And then I had
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: some a couple of chunks, but he she had chunk chunk, chunk,
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: chunk chunk. The challenge for her is obvious. A challenge
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: for me was not to screw up her chunks. So
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: it's all timing, right, So that's the terror when you
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: have little like who and what what's it? You know,
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: your timing can be off and it just messes up
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: their flow. But we did it. We put our heads
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: together and we did it, and we went and nailed it.
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: And so from that moment and we knew we could
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: just do it. I got one more kind of funny one,
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: which is that there's an episode where Kirk does the
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: It's in the the Town is It Challenge show or
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: something where he he does the evolution of man and
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: he goes through and he does the whole thing, and
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: I read that is Remember everything in the script is
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: verbat him all the time, so every every single thing
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: is mapped out. But in that case, all all it
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: says is literally just that Kirk, you know, does a
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: mime that is the evolution of man going from being
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: a baby to death, and that's all it's said. And
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: I was like, this is interesting. I wonder, like what
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: we're gonna do here, and and showing up and like
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: going to rehearsals that morning for that scene we're gonna
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: shoot and talking Dan Palladino was directing that episode and saying, okay, Dan,
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: tell me, like what are you thinking here? What do
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: you got? And he's just like, I don't know, man,
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: Just he goes, he goes, just do what you do,
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: Just do your do your thing. It's like, okay, well,
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: I know, so now for better or for worse, if
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: you ever see that scene again, I guess that's my thing.
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: Thank you. I um My question is was there a
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: cast member in particular that you knew shooting with them
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: would take multiple takes or make you break character. He
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: would make me laugh a lot, and it was sometimes
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: it was really hard. And when he was in the
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: hot dog suit, that was a tough scene because it
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: was just like I think everybody in this scene was
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: cracking up because it was just such a bizarre um visual,
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: you know, right from the cat go. So that was tough.
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: It really is. Honestly, I think it's the scenes with
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: Scott because we did the like the Kirk's on the
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: first date and we're doing that and he's given him
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: advice and they start talking about Duckie and and uh
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: was it in uh pretty and pink and I don't know.
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: I just remember like those scenes when you're like if
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: you're if you're cracking up over and over again, it
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: gets dumb, it gets like performative, but like you know,
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: it's right when like the first the first time you
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: hit the rhythm perfectly, you can't help but like the
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: laugh because it's like, oh that's it, it's right there,
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: and uh, those are good feelings for sure. Thank you,
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: thank you. Hi. Um. Gilmore Girls has an amazing main
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: cast and then also has some really cool recurring characters,
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: uh you know, actors and guest stars. Um. And actually
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: Rob Estes played Jesse's a strange father, and then you
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: went on his shown two on oh and played someone
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: he was a surrogate father too. Matt Lantern's characters a
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: strange father, which I thought was a cool switcher. Um.
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: My question is if you would, through hair and makeup magic,
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: play any of the recurring characters or guest stars that
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: came on Gilmar Girls. Um, who would you want to play?
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: I think you just blew their minds. It's to me,
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: I'm area. That is a rare example of both a
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: good question and one I have not gotten before. Or
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: what's your favorite bourbon Jamison? Probably not Michael Winters because
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: he was too close to Luke, you know, he was
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: kind of Lukey. I think I think Rory because she
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: was so completely vulnerable and sweet, and she threw a
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: all of her lines away in such a way that
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: it was almost instructive because she had no acting experience,
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: so she had, you know, she brought a very fresh
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: approach to her work and I always admired that, Um,
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: the simplicity and and but it was also very rich
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: what she did. And she never pushed, you know, she
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: just never pushed. UM. So I think I would like
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: to try because it would be an interesting dynamic with Lauren.
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: You I want to be your boyfriend anymore, I want
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: to be your daughter. Speaking of kid Thrones, I read
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: too much ancient history. UM, you know what, I would
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: probably choose Paris because because I feel pretty well suited
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: for the character that I played, and Paris is probably
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: the most lateral move from from character. She's like the
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: She's more like a sort of mail counterpart in her
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: her weirdness and how how much anxiety she feels over
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: tiny little things. Um and uh, and I think that
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: would be a lot of fun. Thank you, Hi, I'm Sam.
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: I have a question for Scott. But first I wanted
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: to say, Sean, I absolutely love what Kirk, what you
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: bring to the show. I feel like it just it
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: just makes it so Yeah, I really I just wanted
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: to say that. But Scott, I wanted to know, specifically
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: on the first kiss scene with Lorla, how many takes
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: did it take you to film that? And was because
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: it was so perfectly done between the two of you
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: and the bands are back and forth of like would
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: you just stand still? And then would you just stand still?
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: So how many takes did it take to do that? Well?
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: I I purposely blew a lot of takes because you know, yeah, yeah,
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: was it awkward at all? Uh? You know, you know, honestly,
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: it wasn't awkward, but we knew it was the It
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: was gonna be a huge moment for us, maybe the
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: biggest moment thus far, obviously, and we were both very
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: nervous because we wanted to get it right, you know,
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: we really really wanted to get it right, because if
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: you if you screw that one up, you know that's
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: there's there's no coming back from that. So we really
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: and and and you could hear a pin drop on
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: this set and it was just it was it was
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: filled with energy electricity. That scene. Yeah, well you nailed it,
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: So thank you for that's had a lot of practice.
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: Hi um, I'm sure you guys have gotten this question
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: a lot before. But well, first off, you've both watched
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: the show full through or I I never watched the show,
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: and I have a podcast now where I'm watching the
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: show for the first time and then we're breaking down
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: the episodes. I never watched a show. I made the sausage.
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: I didn't want to eat it. I'm I mostly watched
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: I I would say I watched the show in general,
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: and I always watching my own stuff, which a lot
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: of actors don't. But I'm like, I like want to
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: break down what I did and I'm maning acting. So
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: then what were you team Luke or team Christopher Luke?
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: Luke Luke Luke. That was my favorite reaction time. I
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: was I'm a little I'm almost appalled that you even asked.
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: Thank you. I am kelln and um just piggyback off
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: her a little bit. I watched with my mom and
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: my brother, who were wrongly team Christopher while I was
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: Team Luke. So people can just bow for them. But
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: I have a very generic question. Did you take anything
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: from set? And if so, what was it. I took
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: a great deal. You deserved it. I feel that I did.
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: It was a negotiating tactic. I was going to hold
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: it hostage for more money per episode, and it worked out.
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: Actually it was a bridge midnight. There was an exchange,
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, No, I I too. You know, my chair,
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: the back of my chair, if that's the only thing
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: I ever take from Did they let you take things
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: from your work? Um? I have a lot of analyst
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: and I take like a lot of our office supplies.
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: Fair enough, Yeah, okay, yeah socks, that's my whole. Like
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: I'm that's about as as bold as I get, as
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: i'll as i'll. I'll leave my old sox and take
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: the new ones that Wardrobe gave for me. That's about
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: as far as I can go. Otherwise I feel like
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna get in trouble. Thank you both. Did you
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: have a lot of fun working with your daughter Gi
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: and the tog and Poole when you were supposed to
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: marry Lauren? What what was that light where you upset
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: that it took so long for you to marry her? No,
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: I think it contributed to building the tension for the
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: show over those four seasons that it took. I don't think,
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: you know, you give the audience what they think they
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: want and then they don't come back. But so you
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: gotta milk that. So that's that's good. That was a
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: good thing. You know, I would have milked it for
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: another couple of seasons, you know, yeah, why not? Right? Um?
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: But g was that my daughter's name in the show
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: was nickname. Uh So the question was did I like
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: having a daughter? I know, I loved her. She was
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: such a pro and she was so classy, and she
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: was so smart precocious. I geah, I think she is.
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: And her sister got a record deal as a teena three,
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: like a thirteen year old with Warner Brothers Records and
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: made some albums and you know, that's a very talented family.
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: Very I love her, and I know the fans had
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: an odd reaction to her. They didn't, you know, like
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: how Luke was and what it made him do and
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: act like towards Laurela and the withholding of it and
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: all that. But I loved working with her. I thought
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: it gave him another dimension and I really liked it.
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: Her name was April. Oh, so I'm gonna stick with
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: that answer. April. That's right. I was like, that is
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: not bringing a bell. I did pretty good, though, didn't
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: I Hi, This question isn't really related to um Gilmore Girls,
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: but um, Sean Gun, you play the physical embodiment of
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: Rocket in the m c U. What's that like? Uhuh,
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: it's probably for another panel, but I uh, it's um
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: it's a very unusual job. It ended up being the
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: next sort of you know, I I don't know how
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: to describe that. I'm I'm a very physical actor. That's
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: where I can make the segue from from Gilmore Girls
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: Too to doing Rocket is that I've always been I'm
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: very limber, and I very and I hopefully you know,
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: I used my body as expressively as I can, partially
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: because I was born with such a strange body. And
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: uh and you know, um, and I've always loved doing
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: physical comedy, and then when it came time to do Rocket,
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: it was like to put me on the I just
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: got down on my hands and knees and started doing
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: it from a crouch position. And now you know, now
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: I've done six movies. Is rocket and it's uh and
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: it's a it's a hell of a job. Thank you,
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: Thank you. All Right, we got about five more minutes,
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: so we're gonna try and do is. See, we can't
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: rapid fire through as many as we can, so I
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: apologize that we can't get to your question. But if
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: we don't, like I said, they have booths, you guys
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: can come and get your answers personally there. Okay, all right,
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: let's start. Um So this is actually for him again
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: because he wanted to ask two questions. But um, as Kraiglin,
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: when you were playing in Um Door Love and Thunder,
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: you married a woman you just met. How's that going good?
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: All right? Thank you for your question. Hi, my name
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: is Michelle, and this question is more for Scott Cushn.
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: You kind of already answered it for the revival. You
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: kind of gave it a thumbs down. What do you
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: think they could have done differently? Well, like I said,
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: you know, honor ed and his passing and all he
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: meant to that show. Give it a half to a
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: full episode and then the other three or three and
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: a half to a big wedding. I don't know. I
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: don't know, I don't know. I don't thank you. Okay,
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: So I've been watching the show since I was five
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: and it's really helped me grow. My question is, UM,
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: if the characters were cast two different actors, do you
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: think the show would have gone differently or do you
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: think no big failure, huge failure? First episode canceled by Hi,
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: my name is Isabella. UM. I kind of grew up
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: watching you guys as well. My grandma has the biggest
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: crush on you, like on Scott Um. My question is,
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: even like before um filmmaker roles, what was your first
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: impressions on like what did you think, like how it
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: would go? If that makes sense. As soon as I
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: walked into the room and met Amy and Leslie, Lincoln
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: Gladder who was directing the pilot, and Gavin Polone, I
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: felt like I had finally, honestly finally walked into the
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: right room. Because when you walk into rooms a lot
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: and there used to be a designated pilot season back then,
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: where it was just a specific amount of time during
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: the year where they cast pilots. You walk into a
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: lot of rooms and you don't feel comfortable and they're
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: not the right people, so that just means it's a
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: gut reaction. But with Amy and Gavin and and Leslie,
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: it was the right room, so I knew it was
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: I kind of almost instinctively knew it was going to
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: work out. Yeah, Gimba girls. Well, when I auditioned, I
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: was auditioning for a coast, a one day co star
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: role to play DSL installer um and I um My.
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: My agent at the time wanted me to pass on
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: the audition and not go because they because they thought, no,
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: you're only doing guest stars. Now, you're not doing co
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: stars anymore. And my but my manager was friends with
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: Mark Casey, one of the one of the casting directors,
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: and said, let's do this favor from R and going
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: and read the thing. I'm like, I'm like, I'm not
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: too good, Like I'm still struggling actor and I'm like,
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: I'm not too good for anything. Let me read the scene.
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: If I like the scene, I'll go in and read.
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: If it's if I'm saying, you know, can I get
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: your cup of coffee and leaving then I won't do it.
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: And I and I read the scene, I'm like, oh,
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: this is funny, and I understand this material. This is
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: like old old school comedy. This is like pressent sturge is.
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: It's like, I know exactly how this should work, and
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: uh and and it is one of the auditions that
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: I I went in and read and read and did
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: the scene and I just it was right there. Like
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: when I walked out, I was like, you guys can
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: go home. I just booked that role. I was there
• 47:01
  Speaker 1: when he came out of the room and I went home.
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: Thank you. Hi. My name is Amber, And I'm just wondering,
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: what's the most awkward or hilarious fan interaction you've ever had,
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: if you're legally allowed to share it. There was somebody
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: waiting when I bought a house. Finally, in two thousand
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: and three, I left my little rent controlled studio apartment
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: that was five and fifty a month for all you know,
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: with it included everything, and I just I wasn't leaving.
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: But my accountant said, well, do you want to write
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: this amount of money to the I R S? Or
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: do you want to own a house and get the deductions?
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: I said, up by a house. So I bought this
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: house and it had of this breezeway had it was
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: gated head of breezeway. It's very private. And coming home
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: from work one night there was a German girl who
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: was asleep in my breeze way. Um, and she found
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: out obviously where I lived. And you know, I I
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: woke her up and I said, are you okay? And
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: what's going on? And she started speaking to me. I
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: mean all Germans, most Germans learned English growing up, so
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: she spoke English and she said, oh, look, look, look look,
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: And I said, listen, this is I'm not going to
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: call the police and it's not you know, just don't
• 48:17
  Speaker 1: do this. This is my private home. Um um. And
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: then I said, but do you Mike Schnitzel, come on it. No, no,
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: I uh but so she laughed and you know that
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: that was probably the most awkward, strange encounter I've had
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: so far. They're usually very very pleasant encounters. They're all great,
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: you know, thank you mine is um. One of the
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: first conventions I did after the after UH Guardians, I
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: was with Michael Rooker and a young woman. UM. Yeah,
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm I'm I'm sorry. UM. Anyway, but this
• 48:57
  Speaker 1: this young woman, UM had rooker and I signed her
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: arm and then she came back the next day and
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: I had our signature's tattooed on her arm. Okay, did
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: you have a German accent? Oh? Yeah, thank you, thank you.
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: All right, there's no pressure. But this is unfortunately has
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: to be our final question. But we can do it.
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: We'll doing fast. We'll doing fast, real fast, real fast,
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: real fast. Scott, you've been able to play a lot
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: of different roles, not only a romantic lead here on
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: More Girls, but you've been a cop on the Sol series.
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: You've had all these different roles and somehow you've managed
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: to not be typecast. And how in the world did
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: you pull it off? Um? I don't know. I just
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: I just played the role that I'm given and I
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: try to make it real. Answer is talent. Next you
• 49:53
  Speaker 1: can do this? Hi, guys, my name's Will. A question
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: for both of you. What was it like working with
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: ed Herman and Kelly Bishop where they like very demanding
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: or um, especially when she was girling loop? What was
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: that like? They're both geniuses? Seriously, I mean I don't
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: think I like, right? Is there anything else to say
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: the first time I worked was working with that, I
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: was nervous and I don't get nervous, and it was like,
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: I'm working with a legend today at a golf course
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: and that was really cool. Yeah, that's great. Next, Hi,
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: I'm Sammy. Um I my rush is for both of you.
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: I guess Go More Girls has always been a comfort
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: show to me, which I think a couple of people
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: have said, and I think one of the reasons is
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: such a comfort show for people is the sense of
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: community because of the like large cast of consistent, like
• 50:42
  Speaker 1: smaller characters. I guess that feels very much like a family. Um.
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: But that's kind of controversial in real life because people, so,
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: would you ever want to live in a small town
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: like that where everyone actually like knows your business and
• 50:56
  Speaker 1: involved in everything, or would you actually hate to live
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: somewhere like that in real life? I would like it, actually,
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: But the thing that appeals to me most is just
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: first of all, being able to walk everywhere and um
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: and just knowing my neighbors. It doesn't mean I want
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: him in my business, but like the sense that you
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: have an extended family beyond your own home to the
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: people that are in your vicinity is something that is
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: appealing to me. Yeah, Scott agrees. Next, Hey, fellas my
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: question here. I talked about the fact that you came
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: in on that one episode, but you had another role
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: before you find ended up with Kirk. Can you talked
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: talked to us a little bit about that. It really
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: was just a matter of Amy forgot that she gave
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: my character a name and that first episode because in
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: the script he was DSL Installer and so she thought, oh,
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: this character doesn't have a name yet, and then a
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: few episodes later she had him introduce himself as kirk Um.
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: But what about Swan guy, Right, it's the same thing,
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: so Swan guy. So it was DSL installer, and then
• 52:02
  Speaker 1: it was Swan delivery guy. And then I did the
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: episode where where I was Kirk, and in Amy's mind,
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: she just hadn't given the character a name yet, and
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: then gave him the name of Kirk, not knowing that
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: I had introduced myself as Mick in the first episode.
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: To me, I was, I was. I thought I would
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: like playing sort of the same character, but not exactly,
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: like it's some weird you know, like uh interterimensional like
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: uh multiverse thing or something like that. Like I didn't know,
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: and I was too afraid to ask, so I just
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: like I was like, Okay, I'm just gonna roll with it.
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: And but you can see Kirk changes a little over
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: the course of those first few episodes as I was
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: kind of figuring it out. He doesn't really become really
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: Kirk until about episode like three or four. Yeah, all right,
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: thank you, thank you very much. I don't think there's
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: anywhere else to say you definitely yeah, your answers right here.
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: They they're definitely happy to see you. Thank you so much.
