It's kind of interesting when you sign on to a show because you're basically signing on to play a character because you only really see the first episode of the show.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
It's always a bit strange when you join a show in the second season.
My main worry is that after a certain point you become so identified with a character and a series that you might not be able to get work when your show goes off the air.
That's why I love doing television because it's something that fans and viewers can sit down each week and get to know your character and get to know the show and get to know what's going on and fall in love with you all over again, like they did in previous shows.
When you're doing lots and lots of episodes and you're playing the same character, it's great because you really get to know the character and it becomes a really fast style and you find subtleties in it.
Any time you get to dig deeper into your character, you welcome it, especially on a TV show.
You know, it's scary when you sign onto a pilot of a series because, as much as you want the series to go, you also want it to be a character that you'd be interested in playing for a long time.
I'm not a huge TV person, but when I do watch, it's always after the fact because I like to binge watch. It's more entertaining for me to watch these characters fresh, after one episode, instead of waiting a whole week.
I think being on a TV show is amazing but also, people get kind of used to seeing you a certain way and so it becomes a challenge to break free from that in a way.
I think you just have to take everything that happens on a TV show with a grain of salt. You sign up for a show for six years having zero idea where they're going to go with the character, so you just have to get on the ride of the show and go with wherever they take you.
I don't think it's that strange that a show has sort of a bumpy beginning. It's just part and parcel of the process.
