00:00How does it feel to be here tonight? It feels pretty awesome. I'm very emotional. I'm very tired.

00:05I just want to like sit in that seat and just make people like see what people see what people

00:11have you watched it yet? You got to watch it. No, I'm trying. We're going to watch it tonight.

00:15Okay, great. Amazing. Yes, we're no, I feel really, really good. How would you describe this entire

00:20journey and experience of kind of from first day of production to now being here tonight? It's been

00:25very emotional, honestly, really challenging, very rewarding. I truly, every day is about

00:33people like this woman here, Ayelet and Charlie and Vincent and our directors and our showrunners.

00:40It's the people that I get to work with all the time and that's what really makes everything

00:43totally, totally worth it. And I know, you know, a lot of people have been talking about that there

00:49was a creative overhaul midway through the season. So what was it like kind of dealing with that

00:55change and shift and how did you feel about that? I mean, we needed to do it. I strongly believe

01:01and I'm happy that we were able to do it. The material we shot also was quite good. It's not

01:05like we were going, it's not like we were doing anything wrong. It was just that it needed a bit

01:10more context and connection to the old show. That was the most important thing for us. And for me as a

01:16fan, that's all I wanted. So coming in, I really was hoping we'd have the opportunity to do that.

01:22And we did. We had the time and it was obviously during a very complicated and strange time, but we

01:28were able to take advantage of it and bring in people that I think brought it to the level that

01:37this show deserves. And how would you describe Charlie and Vincent as kind of like leaders on

01:44set for the rest of the cast? They're the best. They're the best. Everyone, they have a very strong

01:50presence. They know what they want to do. They're great collaborators. They're very kind and they

01:57also just have a lot of fun. So for me, I've learned so much from them and I appreciate, I'm so

02:05grateful for the trust and love that they've given me. It's been, it's been a joy. It really has been

02:11a joy. So yeah. And I know, you know, people haven't seen season one yet, but we're already

02:16talking about season two. We're already thinking about it. Have we, are we shooting yet? Starting

02:19next week? Okay. Friday. It's Monday today. We shoot on Friday. I, I'm going to be, I'm

02:26going to be exhausted. I'm exhausted. What can you tease about the second season that, you

02:32know, without really giving anything away? To know is that the big thing to know is that

02:36this is part two of, sorry, season two is really part two. So the story continues. So

02:43I'm just going to warn people, whatever happens at the end of season one, just stay with us.

02:50We've got plans. Stay with us. That's all I can say.
