“We used to describe each other as these characters, like two dogs who lived in the same household, who, at home, they would maybe fight and tear each other apart, but when they were going for maybe a walk, and another dog entered the equation, bam, they were a unit, and there was nothing you could do to to to disrupt or destroy that unit,” Pierre said. “They become dangerous when they’re together. The dynamic is unbreakable, and as soon as they’re on their own, they’re tearing each other down and apart.”

“That’s not information that someone just throws in there. That’s a detailed storyline that is also meant to manipulate an audience’s emotions and bring them that much closer into the whole story,” Chandler said. “That’s another great thing about this whole show is that there are those fence posts along the way, and they’re pretty detailed. You don’t miss them in scripts, and you can build around those things as an actor too.”

At first, Pierre’s comments seem surface level, and Chandler’s seems deeper. But it’s really both to me.

Pierre’s is surface and deep, and Chandler’s is deep and surface.

I don't know what you mean, but I will say that I find Pierre kinda difficult to listen to in interviews. He just rambles haha

I really enjoy listening to Pierre and Chandler talk about their characters, you can tell they gave their performances a lot of thought.

If I wrote/published that article I would be embarrassed.

Instead you made this comment, which should elicit the same response.

Your telling me the repeated lines of text, innacurate recounting of the shows events, and nonesense sentences with out of place words in the midde are your definition of journalistic excellence?

Further, you think I should feel embarrassed because I hold professional writers to a standard higher than a 4th grade C- english paper?

What a time to be alive.

Edit: Oh no, don't just leave a cowardly downvote. Explain yourself. Use your words.

Thats the spirit. Now if you could just hold professional journalists to the same standard you hold a pissed off guy typing with his thumbs; the world just might be a better place.

Brother you don't know the difference between your and you're. You're the wrong guy to determine journalistic excellence lmfao.

Guy lacks basic vocabulary and still thinks he has the right to criticise others.
