https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=czt_Mh_qdsw&t=1s Has Owen learned anything at all from his misadventures in season one? Is he better-equipped this year? Over the course of the first season, he’s just data-collecting. He doesn’t have the footing to take the punches — psychological and physical and emotional. Season two’s really about him gaining traction and punching back —…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V8ODkmHszNc The show enters uncharted territory in season four. Tell us about that. It’s the first one we’ve filmed in summertime — which presents some challenges for the Bulldogs because we’ve seen them only in the wintertime, on the ice, being hockey players. We haven’t seen them in their time off. The challenges that…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63k1Otp9qtM This film is very much the Dirty Dozen of Star Trek — which is inherently tricky for a “utopian” franchise . . . Rob [Kazinsky], my castmate, spoke to this so eloquently at New York Comic-Con. Of course, Star Trek fans appreciate the utopia — and the sheer mention of “Section 31” makes…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iQxt5N2IlrQ This series stands out from the reality TV crowd given that you’re only competing against yourself. Everyone could potentially be a “winner.” The show is not a competition — it’s a reason why I was really happy to go on it. So often, we think of reality shows as, “How do we get…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a5Lk1bAt72U Exactly how big of a challenge did filming so much in the water present? It’s like nothing I’ve ever done before. The ocean is the No. 1 diva — you’re always working around her. She changes constantly — the wind changes, the water changes, every beach that you’re filming on changes, so the…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-NsYcYtDBtc Were you a Goosebumps reader at all as a kid? My mother [Carol Schneider] narrates audio books. So my first time getting exposed to Goosebumps, she was narrating the audio book for Night of the Living Dummy; that was put into my psyche growing up. But I wasn’t a big, hardcore fan. Disney/Francisco…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zxh49-bsIk&t=7s Taylor Sheridan is one of the most prolific and popular TV creators working today. What was it like learning you’d nabbed a role on one of his shows? It’s definitely a core memory. My husband [fellow actor Kevin McGarry] was filming me as I found out. I missed a call from Taylor Sheridan,…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGA19xSfdBc Was it intimidating at all being the new Dragon in the Den? I was overwhelmed . . . It was really strange. They don’t give you training when you become a Dragon. You just show up and you’re like, “How do I do this?” So, in the breaks, sitting beside Manjit [Minhas] and…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PutwAZwHIk8 What are the things that make dating harder as we get older, and what are the things that maybe make it easier? In terms of what makes dating easier, I think people know themselves better than they do in their 20s. They have an easier time identifying what they want, and asking for…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVKDuNjzf30 You’ve both been on long-running shows. Was it a fun change of pace creatively to do an anthology-style gig? COBIE: It was really interesting showing up to a set where the crew were the ones who knew everybody and we were the newbies. It’s like shooting a movie in a very short amount…
