Diane Farr – Fire Country

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UFyPUOKbEQ The show is set in small-town Northern California, but it’s shot in B.C. Do you enjoy it up here? British Columbia is like that boyfriend that I accidentally caught feelings for. I had zero interest in being here . . . I had only ever done pilots, so I was only here in…

The Last Word

Jennifer Whalen & Meredith MacNeill – Small Achievable Goals

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IfWQd0tiRdE What do these two mismatched characters bring out in each other? JENNIFER: Julie, is, for lack of a better word, a bit “tight-a**ed.” I think that she needs to embrace some of Kris’ freedom. Literally — my character doesn’t like hugging! She needs to “embrace” all of that. Kris brings a sense of…

Robb Wells – The Trades

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myznN-6g3gA Season one was Crave’s top Canadian series. What does that mean to you? The response was better than anybody anticipated . . . It was weird; I’m so used to being at an airport and people calling out, “Ricky!” Being called “Todd” a few times was pretty cool. People love…

Nicholas Pinnock – Long Bright River

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mu-lFJKBws&t=1s Beyond the surface-level thrills of the “murder mystery,” what’s the deeper, human territory explored in this show? Well, take away the mystery and the murders and the world that it’s set in, what you’re left with is a community of people who care about each other, who are there for each other, who…

Ryan Guzman – 9-1-1

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PyAZ9VYNE2c Eddie really has gone on an intense journey of reckoning with himself and his trauma since we met him in season two. Yeah, there’s an outdated idea of a “man” that I feel was pressed on a lot of men around my age. You know, growing up with the John Waynes, the alpha…

Wendi McLendon-Covey – St. Denis Medical

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1NkZGmN1Eg&t=5s As a comedy vet, what really jumps out about St. Denis Medical . . . about Justin Spitzer and his team’s writing? The thing I love about the writing on the show is that although these characters are flawed, they are good people. Look around at the people you work with in any…

Shemar Moore – S.W.A.T.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q65TGxrwPL4 When we spoke a year ago — for what was supposedly the “final” season — you hinted maybe there was still some life left in the show. Did you know something? I didn’t have any inside information. It just didn’t make sense to me. We were popular on Netflix [in reruns], Charles Barkley…

Tom Green – Tom Green Country

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ChYdtdCMa7k Do these three Prime projects combine to form a single, cohesive portrait? And why the urge to take a look back now? They do all sort of complement each other. The documentary comes out first, and then the standup special, and then the series — which is about about my life on the…

Noah Centineo – The Recruit

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 —…

Tasya Teles – Shoresy

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…
