Transcript
00:00We're here tonight at the Hollywood Reporter and SAG's Emmys party.
00:03Who's somebody you'd love to maybe bump into at one of these parties this weekend
00:06that you haven't maybe gotten the chance to meet yet?
00:09I mean, this is it right here.
00:11This is the dynamic duo.
00:13Every party where the party's shaking our asses to quote Chaperone.
00:17Is Chaperone here?
00:18That's who I'd like to bump into.
00:20Is she showing up?
00:22I don't know if she's on the list, but we need to get hot to go.
00:25We need to tell the DJ to play it.
00:27Exactly.
00:27We're celebrating excellence in television, which involves both of us.
00:31I'm TikTok dancing.
00:32Shut up.
00:33Okay, sorry.
00:34It's my new career.
00:36I want to be an influencer.
00:38Their life looks so fun.
00:41Makeup tutorials and cooking pasta.
00:43You have to go like this.
00:44Disgusting pasta.
00:45You have to hold it up.
00:45Oh, yeah.
00:46And then you wait.
00:47Hey, guys.
00:48Here's my purse.
00:51This is my audition.
00:52So I got some swag at last year's night before party.
00:57It's the Wakanda Forever Lip Gloss.
01:00Can you see?
01:02There's a sheen.
01:03Oh, it's the lip.
01:06Oh, my God.
01:07I love it.
01:09It's just the best.
01:11Nailed it.
01:11You are now the hottest new influencer.
01:14I don't make as much money as them.
01:16So be nice.
01:17I'd like to get a raise.
01:18For you, season four of Abbott Elementary is about to premiere next month.
01:22What are you excited for fans to see with Ms. Chimenti next season?
01:26You know, there's so much room that we have with 22 episodes to just take what we did last season,
01:33which was a ton of story crammed into 14 because of the strike.
01:36And Quinta was pulling her hair out.
01:39And the writers killed themselves.
01:40And they made an incredibly full, packed, stacked season.
01:46And this one is just as many, if not more, laughs.
01:52Room for the relationships to kind of combine and fizz and spark.
01:59And just a lot more fun.
02:01It's a lot more fun, I think.
02:03We were all really up against it last year.
02:08I think we made great television, but we're having such a good time with each other.
02:12We can play a little bit more.
02:16I'm going to speak as if I'm not part of it.
02:19It is such a talented ensemble.
02:23I think the best on television.
02:25That having the room to play within the scenes is just sparked so much more.
02:31And I think the audiences are going to see that.
02:34And I know they are.
02:35They're going to love it.
02:35I'm loving it.
02:37I leave work every day and go, damn, that was good TV we just made.
02:41I love that.
02:42Well, have a fun night tonight.
02:43We lost your buddy.
02:45But you can go rejoin her.
02:46She went to another interview.
02:48I saw other people that I like.
02:49Oh.
