https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELGABd_gfjE Does it feel like kind of a magic trick that you can tell an inspirational sports story that’s rooted in defeat, as opposed to a miraculous underdog victory? JOSEPH: I think James [Graham, playwright and TV series creator] would probably say, “It would’ve been so much easier if we’d gotten the Cup!” But…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yx2YuoAnwlQ Of all the things you’ve done across your career, have you ever directed such an eclectic cast? Look, I’ve done a lot of stuff — from the dancing and choreographing and my TV work and the movies . . . I’ve run the gamut. And this was just a great deal of fun.…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L4ioZpDUTfo Do you think there’s something about the Canadian sense of humour and the British sense of humour that just kind of syncs up? Yeah, growing up I remember being exposed to Monty Python in early high school. Some people in the States were aware of them, but I think it was much more…
How exactly do you sort out your distinct approach to a massive hosting gig like this? The really exciting thing was that I’ve kind of known for a year that I was gonna host it. So, I’ve had a year to just sit and consume outside content and see what I want from the…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7xVkHf1_58 What was the process like for you and the other producers of trying to recapture that old Yellowstone magic, while also creating a show that has its own identity and stands on its own two feet? Yeah, when it first came up, it was while we were shooting the last episode of the…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnhBEBCCWv0 Congratulations on the show. What’s it been like delving into another long-term gig like this? It’s a dream. I pinch myself every day. Some days I go to work and I’m like, “Is this real? I get to do this?” It’s the most incredible job. And then some days you’re like, “Is…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsTdv5Jb6Xg What was it about the “long-lost half-sister” dynamic that intrigued you? Suze and Sare didn’t grow up together; they’re strangers when they meet as adults. So, does the fact that they’re related by blood really factor into their bond at all? SUSAN: Well, you know, when Sarah and I met over 20 years…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U1MqJBVn8Rk Vanessa dies midway through this season, in what is very much a showcase episode for you. To what degree did Dario Scardapane and the other producers loop you in on plans for her sendoff? It was quite in the beginning of season two. Dario made a point of calling me and explaining his…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PcmUonYWdjE This type of work must be an exercise in extremes — seeing dogs at their most abused and neglected, and then, on the other end of the spectrum, watching them find their way back to happiness . . . ALEX: Definitely. It’s a rollercoaster of emotions — and it’s kind of the same…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xq8x47ky2Tw Even as someone who’s behind the scenes and knows how the proverbial sausage is made, do you ever find yourself shocked by some of these grisly injuries when you’re filming a scene? Yeah, and most of these things hang out in the hall. There will literally just be, like, a bunch of heads…
