11:38that's just something people say to stop from putting their eyes out
11:44that's the joke that's what says that dad died of a heart incident apparently his heart just gave out
11:53because it was so big your dad had the biggest heart bow probably just got tired carrying so much love

12:27ad it's an
12:28aww ick what's an aww ick it's a scene where the audience goes aww and the writers go ick it's
12:36so
12:36gross and sentimental oh all right well do you want to tweak it make it less ick it's not mine
12:42i would
12:42never write anything like that it's al who is al who is al uh yeah that's the um that's the
12:49ai writing

13:07show runners mary it's aww ick josh it's fine did you even read it we'll see you tomorrow at the
13:14front
13:14here the scene is awful and they like it are you seriously competing without no mary i care i'm the
13:21voice of the women of a certain age oh my god our names are on the script well that's upsetting
13:28married couple working together not them that machine wrote a pretty good scene in 10 minutes
13:34actually was like 50 seconds mr burrows but i i held it back so i wouldn't look too fast
13:41that's lunch everybody that's lunch everybody all right yeah jimmy seems concerned about ai yeah
13:49how do you feel well we needed a new scene got a new scene okay wardrobe discovering who beth is
13:58what does she wear creating all those interesting layers and costume designers have so many great
14:05ideas ideas you've never even thought of

14:17okay valerie you just want to come right here thank you okay okay so this is the cross-section of
14:25the
14:25world i've been living in okay um so catherine hepburn if we want to do kind of like new england
14:31spiky
14:31spinster right um mrs roper uh if we want to go fun eccentric and then and then there's maud
14:38that was a song from the show mod yeah if we wanted to um overbearing innkeeper yeah yes well okay
14:48you
14:49know i think that the um new england looks probably the closest to what i was thinking so except can't
14:55do the hat oh i love the hat well i wore a hat in my last show it was called
15:01mrs hat i wore a great big
15:03sun hat so the hat is everything well no it's not everything because you still have the um turtleneck
15:10and the shapeless white shirt wow um okay you know it's a multi-cam it's all overhead lighting so it
15:19casts shadows right not gonna work so what are you um what are we gonna do with your hair do
15:27you think it
15:28be like uh gray why well the script said woman of a certain age so that's just reality it's not
15:36my
15:36reality i'm a woman of a certain age you know and i still color my hair don't even know if
15:41i have any
15:41gray yeah no that's okay i'm gonna meet with my hair guy later so why don't we just talk about
15:48your
15:48department so stay in my lane well that's a way to put it yeah so smart good carter yeah um
15:57well uh mrs roper is hilarious that's true yeah she is funny um it's but it's it's a joke you
16:04know i
16:05mean yeah that's uh that's a real person you know it's a real world i don't know what if she
16:11wore
16:11something you know like well not exactly this but you know more like this very flattering that's not
16:17funny that's okay because you know i'm funny the writing's funny and if it's not funny i'll make it
16:22funny you know so not this right um it's okay i have uh i have other choices oh great okay
16:29yeah
16:29we're back on excuse me so what you really love a caftan it's funny although you seem to have
16:37an aversion to funny i don't have an aversion to funny darling okay i've done that you know wore the
16:46bad track suit and you know the big joke and i'm more than willing to do that if that's what
16:52the
16:52character is okay but this character is moving story along and having feelings right you know it's
16:59not one joke and out um laurie has the short miniskirt and the my nsu t-shirt right that's a
17:05joke oh i'm not doing that how's that i don't see her that way well okay the writers see her
17:12that way
17:13clearly written by a straight man gallery well you think no um for her i i don't know um
17:22i see her as sexy right yeah kind of like a big like slouchy jacket right and kind of like
17:28slouchy
17:29pants very like fashion you know like that's how i see her oh right except you know what i think
17:35the
17:35writers are going to want to see that my nsu joke one of them told me specifically you know it's
17:39his
17:39favorite jokes i'm just trying to help you darling i'm trying to help you no i um i think i
17:45get it
17:46yeah it's just uh she can be the joke but you can't the older actress is threatened by the younger
17:52one threatened i'm telling you to make her sexier you know put her in the miniskirt oh my god no
17:59i'm
17:59not getting into this where an actor tells me what another actor can and can't wear i'm not getting
18:03into that situation okay but that's all right because that's not what this situation is okay this
18:08isn't an actor talking about another actor this is an executive producer talking to a costumer
18:14about what the needs of the show are that's all all right so i'm just going to give you a
18:20minute
