00:00You're popular. What can you say?
00:02Okay, I'll take it.
00:04Dan knows what that's like.
00:06Dan's pretty popular.
00:06You're popular, too.
00:07You're what?
00:08You're popular, too.
00:09You know, among certain groups.
00:12Everybody knows Dan.
00:14So, the final season. How upsetting is it?
00:18Of Hacked?
00:19Yeah.
00:20You know, I love the show. I've always loved the show.
00:24I felt unbelievably blessed to be allowed to be a part of 3 and 4.
00:30But as somebody who has been on a show that ends and then comes back, I don't know.
00:36You're hopeful.
00:37Listen, who knows what happens 10 years from now?
00:40This is a group of actors and writers and performers who have told a very complete story.
00:45They're so talented.
00:46I would bet you anything that this is going to be very satisfying and complete.
00:52Tell me about your eyes out.
00:53Well, I'm happy people are asking about it, even though it seems funny to me, because it's pretty self-explanatory.
01:02We've got this, like, armed group of people who are untrained, roving our streets, hurting first poor immigrants who are
01:12here trying to find a better life.
01:15And now shooting and gunning down American citizens in our streets.
01:20The simple is, see something, say something.
01:21We're all seeing something.
01:23So, we need to say something.
01:25Yeah.
01:25I mean, would you like to think that in 1930s Germany you would have said something?
01:30I would.
01:32So, yeah.
01:34Got to talk about the comeback.
01:36It's premiering any day now.
01:38You're so close.
01:39It was, I may have gotten screeners on Friday.
01:42I will.
01:44So, tell me everything.
01:45It's really, it was so satisfying to be able to come back and do another season.
01:51The idea for it is brilliant.
01:53Lisa and Michael got together and came up with an idea that not only honors everything the comeback was before,
02:01but tells a very modern story and shows growth and maturity in Valerie Cherish like we've never seen before.
02:09I go off the rails, which is so fun to do.
02:12I've never gone off the rails before, and I truly do, which was.
02:16Is your aura ring going to show us that you've gone off the rails?
02:18I go off the rails, trust me, on the comeback.
02:22How often were people coming to you, pitching you ideas for another season?
02:28Well, people asked about it all the time, all the time.
02:31Wouldn't it be great?
02:32Are you going to come back?
02:33Are you going to come back and be like, we would love nothing more, was the standard answer.
02:37You never know.
02:38But people would have come up with ideas.
02:40And the truth is, who wouldn't want to see Valerie Cherish in any number of circumstances?
02:45It turns out that what we are doing this season is perfect.
02:49I'm so excited.
02:50I can't wait to see it.
02:52It's going to be good.
02:52Did you ever think you would do it?
02:54As much as people wanted it.
02:56Third season, you mean?
02:57Yeah.
02:57Well, we talked about it.
02:59I mean, the idea that they cooked up was a couple of years ago.
03:03But the stars have to align.
03:06Did you write on it?
03:06I didn't write on it.
03:07I've produced it since the beginning.
03:08Michael and Lisa wrote every episode.
03:10Wow.
03:11And they came up with an idea that they both really got excited about.
03:15And that energy and excitement is palpable.
03:18The idea is brilliant.
03:19And it's very much something that had to be done right now.
03:22And that's why we're doing it.
03:26Good to see you so much.
